Thinking of throwing in the towel

Anyone referencing the past for future guidance for investing IN THIS WORLD ECONOMY has got to be kidding, right ?
Rational: the crisis that is still unfolding is without precedent....Gold, crude oil, european riots, no American jobs.....this is crazy stuff.

Have you all gotten drunk from the Fed's cool-aide that's been spiked with phony money ?
What happens when the punch bowl is taken away ?
THE PARTY'S OVER.

Thank you so much for correcting my paging error; it was 173 and not 172. My memory is less than perfect.

Darvas preceded WJO'N by a few years. I was trading stocks at that time too.

All three of us have one pagers for doing stocks. Mine is called PVT and has about five rules for using a RDBMS type object chart. The reference chart was tested on a sample of 400,000 and no changes were made. The long half cycle is about 4 to 8 days and the compoumding @ 10% gives parallel results to O'Neill and Darvas. Nothing has changed.

basically the venue for making money trading stocks is the same for most. You keep a current Universe and you time the price break outs with a leading indicator of price. My lead is about 1 hours in the am on the day of the BO. The SEC provedits efficacy over the course of several years. All their citations to me were withdrawn as they learned they were misapplying a software "insider" detection system.

When WJO'N offered his institutional trading service duringthe beta tresting, I was a person he took advice from. It was priced at 44K a year.

Around 1970 and forward I had the full S&P brokerage services for my classes in the subburbs of Philadelphia (courtesy of the S&P Eastern regional manager). At that time I did monthly market assessment on the last Thursday of each month. I rotated through several brokerages and it was open to any firm. My affiliation with Wharton came later (before and after the Bicentenial).

I am getting bored with JHM stuff. Any advice where to read up asset rotation. :p

Read Faber's book.

Asset rotation and the principles are very similar to the JH stock method of rotating into the highest velocity money makers.

You welcome. :) Your memory is amazing. Who of the right mind would want to memorize page number? I would be lucky not to mix up girl friends' names.

I hope that OP is smart enough to take the time to study your one-pager volume as indicator method if he prefers to swing-trade high-beta stocks. Personally I don't like to monitor stocks while doing ES daytrading. Monitoring and sending trading instructions during non-trading hours for stocks or ETF of about 3 to 4 week swing would be perfect.

Mebane Faber?
 
That's the one. ROR is about 12-15% a year with max DD about 1/2 or 1/3 of max DD of SPY. You can do better if you use a better measurement of performance over simple % gain and employ leverage.

Nothing like JH equities, but less monitoring and instructions can be sent sunday each evening.

Fits into Jack's idea of employee daytrade/equity capital to higher timeframe where more liquidity can be found.

I don't suppose most of us here have such liquidity issues, but if you do this is no doubt the place to go.
