1. The timing signal says one thing, but this other indicator I have says another...

"The trade you do not take, will likely be the trade that makes most of the profits for the entire year."

2. There is absolutely no reason the market should move in that direction... However, there was no real reason that the stock market should have made 50% gains in 2009, and yet it happened.
