 Hi Ben, 
  
Are you updating your earlier comment to cover the next week or two? 
  
I have paste another gentleman's research below: 
  
On the NDX looks to be the best, buying on the close of 5  days before 
President's Day (going long on the 2/14 close) and exiting on the  close of 2/23. 
This could also be used with a double-leveraged fund like  Rydex Velocity 100. 
---------------------------------------- 
Total Closed  Trades:         22 (1.00/yr) 
Winning  Trades:            77.27% 
Largest  Gain:              +7.36% 
Largest  Loss:              -2.03% 
Ave. Gain Per Trade:      +1.26% 
Max.  Drawdown (peaks):    -2.82% on 02/13/03 
Max. Drawdown  (entry):    -2.03% on 02/13/03 
Max. Drawdown (real)  :    -2.03% on 02/13/03 
Winning  Years:             78.26%

hello 
  
tomorrow should be a  down day for Both nasdaq and sp500 
(if we continue higher it will be a small up) 
this is just a temporary set back 
  
the high for this move  should come  2/2-2/4 
  
  
the  major turn on 2/17-2/20 
  
attach is a chart showing the turns
