How Does Market Timer Work?
Market Timer is delivered as an MSExcel(tm) spreadsheet. It is available, after updating, for download each day to provide actionable insights into herding activity (crowd behavior) in the market. The correlations, data relationships and formulas to extract the signals in Market Timer have been honed over the past 25 years, so this is not a new tool. The original developer of the spreadsheet discovered that there was a high, positive correlation between certain internal market data and daily closing prices of the DOW Industrial Average and the S&P500. This correlations provided key insights into buying and selling activity in the market which were attributed to the behavior of the self-interest of crowds (herding). When we saw the data we realized it is too much of a coincidence that the market would eventually rise when we saw a period of accumulation (positive numbers) in the MTSD (i.e. positive herding activity/buying) and low MTVol- and the market would decline in a significant way for a long period of time when we saw distribution (negative numbers) in the MTSD and high MTVol. The ebb and flow of the MTSD and the shift from buying to selling and selling to buying visible in the BoP appeared to one of our peers to simulate "herding" activity by market participants. We know that, at the very least, participants in the stock market herd and there is some excellent research on herding in the financial markets to confirm this (see footnotes).
The Market Timer spreadsheet digs deep into five core internal market data inputs we use. Using only the most core fundamental data provides powerful insights. At one time in the spreadsheets' development there were dozens of data points used in the calculations. Over time, it was discovered which data points were the most critical, most efficient and most effective in generating actionable signals that correlated to movement of the herd (predicative values). The data which generates the Market Timer signals is just five pieces of publically available data. You can just download the updated spreadsheet each day from us in the Client Portal after the market close. Those five data points are examined from every possible angle: Correlations & relationships are examined in the first layer of data and create subsets of data giving us a powerful prediction algorithm.
What Is the Best Way To Profit From Market Timer?
The best way to profit from Market Timer is to identify where the market herd is heading and then positioning yourself to go long or short the major market index derivative of your choice (S&P500, DOW30 or Nasdaq Composite).
Are The Market Timer Signals Generated Automatically?
The MT Supply/Demand Index (MTSD), MT Volatility Index (MTVol including the new Pipeline columns) and the Bullish and Bearish Balance of Power (BoP) and Trend/Strength (T/S) columns and signals are calculated automatically once the data is entered in the spreadsheet. There are only five cells that need input after the market closes. It's easy, and simple. You can update it yourself or wait for us to provide you with the updates after each market close. A quick look will tell you what the herd is going to do over the next few days/weeks by watching these signals.

Can I Update the Spreadsheet On My Own?

Do You Send Trade Alerts?
Our job is to provide unbiased analysis of market herding activity. We leave the trading to you. Market Timer works better than any other swing trading and timing tool anywhere but there are several reasons why we do not provide alerts or trade recommendations. First, we do not want to change or affect the market by creating alerts on a specific instrument that would change the pricing of that instrument. There are many ways to take advantage of Market Timer signals and since we do not provide individual investment advice or know the financial situation of each of our clients we do not send trades recommending specific trades, investments, instruments, prices to buy/sell, etc. Second, the instruments you use depends on your objectives, experience, methods and preferences. Some clients buy the entire index, some use index options, some use futures, others use a combination of the two.
Simply follow our signals in the daily updates and you be the judge.
