    Hey! Try the link, I've been monitoring this site for a couple of weeks. They seem to have a good average for predicting which way the market will go. I don't think they monitor international markets? MAKE IT SIMPLE ---> STUPID!!!!

    When I found this site they were doing pretty well, but have lost their butts sence May 1st. Just hanging in there when they should have been in cash! Not so simple and not so good!

    I remember reading it. Their strategy was to move your funds based on the 20 day v. the 50 moving averages. When the 20 day MA moves above the 50 day MA, get in. When it moves below, get out. That was his/her KISS.

    edit: I just found the thread. It's here:

    They did really well last year but missed it this year. Seems they quit updating the site when they lost their butts in May?

    Yea, I remember those days years ago for me....too much delay in the data before you respond, by the time you figured you should move, you done lost it..........same with stochastics....that post about long term stochastics someone made on the other thread has the same problem....
