The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Update on the signals

(1) LT Bear
https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/2xbv376z6a11wdoobvh...

After flirting with the red line on intra-day basis - firmly closed below today ( Weekly chart). Not good

(2) The faster one : been firmly in Out territory. ( The color scheme maybe a bit confusing but the Index is painted when in Bullish mode)

https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/3347v3hx961xqlqtzlj...

(3) Thrust Confirmation: None - 10 day count is done. Bar is not painted anymore ( Green triangle is Thrust confirmation)

The BCII Slope ones are hanging on by a thread!

So now what?

- First I am marginally LONG (!?) - I have an ensemble which can be used as a knife catcher ( which I did Mar 11-12). It also has a Test for Major bottom confirmation - I am going to rerun it over the weekend - but I am pretty sure it didn't hit. So non-confirm.

Net: High prob of this ( indices) printing a lower low - how far will it go? Not sure.

Can you be short - IF AND ONLY IF you have very good Short term trading indicators.

I am simply hoping for it to turn back on the next leg and depending on Thrust, exit them eventually dependent on the Slope signals.

Best
