You can *always* find a reason to do whatever you want to do.

The "in" signal is the first week that the S&P500 closes above the 43 week SMA.
The "sell" signal is if the S&P500 closes below the SMA *and* either of the FRED indexes is down YOY. (Personally, I use -2% below the SMA. Because that has fewer sell signals and has slightly better return. You need to have different percentages to avoid whiplash.)
