Market View

Contrarian Blog: The summary of the most recent charts of the sentiment indicators we follow have the Put/Call Ratio's 10 day moving average ticking upward. Therefore, it is now on a Newtral signal bias. Since the 10 day moving average of the VIX is uptrending and broke above recent highs, the VIX indicator has returned to a Negative signal. Since the Investors Intelligence Polls are on a Positive signal, our sentiment indicators are suggesting an overall Neutral bias.

Company Philosophy

Our trading philosophy is based upon figuratively laying out various technical, fundamental and sentiment indicators on the playing field where we can observer the game and more effectively call plays to be more defensive or offensive. Most trading systems rely on a group of technical indicators as a basis for the trade signal without regard to market fundamentals or sentiment. While each of our strategies rely heavily on a different type of indicator, defining posture first develops proper trade structures that lead to more consistent profits.
