How The System Works
It is a simple fact that as the major markets move up or down, so too do most individual equities. Therefore the ability to anticipate directional shifts in the primary markets (NASDAQ, S&P 500, etc.) leads to significant advantage for trading certain indexed ETFs. This is the premise upon which the LogicTiming system is built.
System Logistics- We run the LogicTiming computer model once per day - at the market close.
- The model performs a full analysis, issuing a Buy, Sell, Cash, or Hold signal.
- The daily signal is e-mailed to our subscribers, usually by 4:15 pm Eastern (GMT-05) but not later than 6:15 pm, except on Friday or the day before a holiday when we may delay the signal e-mail to enable additional research. (Please read our caveats regarding internet e-mail.)
- In addition to the e-mail, we post the signal to the members area of the website. You can always login to check current signal status.
- Subscribers respond to new action signals by placing the appropriate trade orders with their broker for execution on the next business morning.
- See our ETFs page for information on which instruments we trade.
LogicTiming Signals
New signals are issued as Buy, Sell, Cash, and Hold.
A LogicTiming Buy signal is a buy/ long action signal. It implies that LogicTiming anticipates that the market will move higher. If you are currently short, cover your position with a buy-to-cover order and take a long position the next trading morning. If you are currently in cash, simply take a long position.
A LogicTiming Sell signal is a sell/ short action signal. It implies that LogicTiming anticipates that the market will move lower. You'll need to sell your existing long position and establish a cash or short position (depending on your level of risk tolerance) the next trading morning. Short-selling is not required to profit from the LogicTiming system. It is simply an option for experienced traders able and willing to assume an elevated risk profile.
A LogicTiming Cash signal is an exit-to-cash action signal. It implies an uncertain or directionless market and instructs us to move to the sidelines by taking a cash position, closing out any current long or short positions, and to remain in cash until the next LogicTiming Buy or Sell signal.
A LogicTiming Hold signal means no action is required today - simply stay the course and continue with your current positions, based upon the most recent action signal. This is the signal you will see 90% of the time since action signals are issued (on average) only about twice per month. The Hold signal e-mail can be deactivated by the client, if desired.
