        There were 15 Buy B7s.  The average gain was 10.8% since 1928 and 23.0% since 1945.
        There were no losses.

         The 4 Buy B7s in the years with Mid-Term Elections brought gains that
         averaged 23.6%.   However, Buy B7s in the Third Year of the Presidential cycle
         resulted in gains that averaged only 3.9%.  Gains for Buy B7s in the first 10 days
         of the month averaged less than one third others that took place later in the month.
         The 3 Buy B17s in November and December gained 39.6% and 26.5%, respectively.
         Without these November and December B17s, the average B17 gain was still +6.3%
         after 1945.

       Buy B7s are buys at the lower band or lower soon after a Buy B12.  Do not use them in
            extreme bear markets, like 1929-1932, 1937-1938, 2008-2009, when the DJI has fallen
            more than 40% in the previous 10 months.

           Buy B7s are reliably very bullish.  None of the 10 Buy B7s was closed out at
           a loss.  The average gain was very significant +12.8%   The biggest paper loss was 7%. 
           There were also 2 paper losses of 4.2%.

                                        
Five of the 10 Buy B7s were reversing Buy signals

                                                                                +15.6%                                                                +5.1 %

             Buy B7s were most bullish after a bear market or a 6-12 month consolidation.


              Buy B7s require that:
                   there have been a Buy B12 in the last 10 weeks,
                   the DJI be 2% to 7% below the 21-day ma
                   the DJI not be down more then .95% for the day of the Buy B7 
     

               The Buy B7 should not be used in when the DJI is down more than 40% from its
               high of the last 10 months.  There has not been a Buy B7 cince 19t0. 
 

   

      Buy B7s in the Year after A Presidential Election

       Because the historical odds are 14/24, or 58.3%, the the year after a Presidential
       Election year will drop sharply in the first nine months,  B7s are not allowed until
       late October in these years.

      B7s before October 20th in the year after a Presidential Election are not allowed by the
      Peerless Software.  To my surpise, at first, they actually work out reasonably well
      in this year, although there there are some paper losses.   This shows that seasonal
      patterns are not over-powering and Buy B12s in this normally weak year are probably
      quite significant.   Be on the alert for these pull-backs after a Buy B12 in this year.
