Our proprietary risk model for the US market changed to GREEN giving swing-traders a green signal to increase their exposure.
Most technical indicators in our risk model improved versus last week and are now showing a green or al leaset a yellow light.
Contrarian / psychological indicators like the bulls vs bear indicator are well in a range which would support a transition into a new bull market.
Most importantly, the individual stocks on our watchlists and our model-portfolio acted well in course of last week and we could score some nice gains. We can now apply the concept of progressive exposure and increase our exposure on the back of our gains from last week. By doing that, we are always invested the most when things are working well for us, that means when our strategy is well fitted for the current market environment.
Swing-traders can increase their exposure but still need to be aware of the risk around high volatility in the current market environment. While we could score some nice gains in course of last week, the market is still responding with a high volatility to relevant news. This is different in a stable and confirmed bull market uptrend in which you will only have some volatility around news updates.
