Sell S9vs: 1965-2016
 
         
Here I present new research on S9V Sell signals.  Below are all the cases when
                    the V-Indicator was negative and the P-Indicator was above 0 for the dangerous time
                    period May to September.   To get an S9V, the DJI must close at least 2.4% over the 21-day ma.
                    For testing purposes, initially no exclusion is
made because of the level of ANNROC
                    or any other key value. 

                    Upon further consideration, I believe the data below show that we can better refine S9Vs by:
                                1)  excluding cases after 9/16
                                 2) excluding cases where ANROC is below .170
                                 3) excluding case where ANROC is above .648
                                 4) excluding case where the ratio of Up Volume to Down Volume was greater than 18:1 in last 5 days.
                                           This excludes the S9V on 7/16/2009.

                   When we make these adjustments to Sell S9Vs, we get a total of 22 cases since 1965.
                   There are only 2 failures.  In both cases, the DJI went sidewise for a month or more
                   before making a bullish breakout.  So losses here would have been limited.

    S9vs here occur when the DJI is above the 2.45% over the
            21-dma with the V-Indicator 0 or less and the annualized
            rate of change of the 21-dma is between .40 and .60. 
            The level of the P-Indicator, IP21 or ObvPct are not
            factored in here.   Seasonality, however, is very important in
            making this signal useful for profitable short sales and
            taking profits.


DATAV.BMP (986454 bytes)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                
Sell S9vs cannot be properly studied for the period 1929-1965.
                             This is because the necessary data before 1966 is not
                            available.   NYSE Up and Down volume can only be estimated,
                            as I have for all the data before 1966, by employing the
                            ratio of NYSE advances to NYSE declines and total NYSE volume.


  
                       S9v Sell signals, as presented here, do duplicate many of
                            other, more regular S9s which are based on negative divergences
                            by the P-Indicator and IP21 from the DJI when it is at the
                            upper band.  Many of the dates of these signals are the same
                            for our regular S9s.  


  
                The lesson here is that S9vs have an independent potency
                    in their own right, despite levels of the P-Indicator or the
                    V-Indicator, when used advisedly, as shown below, only in the
                    period from June to Septembers.  In addition, S9vs have to be
                     mistrusted when the DJI is more than 5% over the 21-day ma,
                     as this often shows the market is taking off after a bear
                     market.  See in the last table how each Sell S9v has all the
                     key values for the date of the signal shown:
                                     DJI daily closing price
                                     Last Price/21-dma of DJI closing prices
                                     Annualized Rate of Change for 21-day ma
                                     P-Indicator
                                    P-Indicator Daily Change
                                    IP21
                                   V-Indicator
                                   ObvPct


          
There were 59 "RAW" S9Vs.  There were 21 instances of the
                   DJI subsequently falling below the lower band in 3 months.                
                    In 13 more cases, the DJI fell to the lower band and in
                    3 more cases it fell half way between the 21-dma and the
                    lower band.  If short sales in these cases were all profitable,
                    Sell S9vs succeeded in 37 of 59 cases.

                    Subsequent declines to the 21-day ma would also have generated
                    profitable short-term trades in 4 more cases.  So for a trader,
                    the success rate of an S9v would have been 41/59

                    In 18 cases, the DJI kept rising and a loss on a short sale
                    taken with the S9v would have occurred.

                   We can improve the success rate by taking only the
                   Sell S9vs in February and from May to September.  In these
                   months there were 26 S9vs and only 2 losses.  12 of the
                   26 produced DJI declines below the lower band.  In 8 cases

  
               the DJI fell to the lower band. 


            SEASONAL SELL S9vs: 1965-2011

  
               There were 19 S9Vs from May to September.  Only 1
                   produced a loss, if one's minimum target was half way
                   between the 21-day ma and the 3.5% lower band.
                   9 of these 20 led to declines below the lower band.
                   7 resulted in declines to the lower band.

                     RAW Sell S9vs by Year
             in The 4-Year Presidential Cycle


                The year before the Presidential Election year was generally
    a bad year to employ an S9v.  11 of 22 brought losses.   Despite
    this, a 4 S9vs in July and August in the year before a Presidential
    Election Year would all been profitably traded by a short seller.
    In 2 of the 4 cases the DJI fell below the lower band.


 
    7/5/2011     12569.87    Declined to ma
       8/23/1999   11299.76   Declined below Lower Band
       7/9/1999      11193.69   Declined to lower band
        8/26/1971  906.10       Rose another week and then Declined below Lower Band.
   


    
The year after a Presidential Election was the best.  There was only one loss
         and 5 of the 11 brought declines below the lower band.

This case is excluded because ot was not based on acceptable data.

          Superior results can be obtained for the period 1966-2011 by
               1) only allowing Sell S9Vs between May and Augist.
                2) requiring that the LA/MA be under 1.0425
                    This eliminates 2 losses (8/20/1982 and  8/24/1970) and 1 decline to the LB (17/1/70)

          When IP21 was above .14, a decline only to the LB was likely.

                               May to September Refined S9vs: 1966-2011

              S9vs here occur when:
               1)   the DJI is 2.45% to 4.26% over the 21-dma
               2) the V-Indicator 0 or less
               3) and the annualized is  .40 to .575
            and only between May and September.
              
            The level of the P-Indicator, IP21 or ObvPct are not
            factored in here.   Seasonality, however, is very important in
            making this signal useful for profitable short sales and
            taking profits.

                                                      
              Results in 19 cases:
                            1 decline to MA and then a 2.3% paper loss.
                            1 decline to MA  (The final outcome here is not decided.
                            8 declines to LB 
(+42.1%)
                            9 declines below LB
  (+47.4%)
  Conclusion:
   Sell S9vs add little to the Peerless system of intermediate-term signals since 1966,
   but they are a very useful supplemental Sell signal for traders.
 It may be, however that
   the 2011 S9vs will play out so well, that the signals should be included   

   On an intermediate-term basis, adding them would have produced a +2.3% loss and
   new gains of +2.6% and 5.2%.  Perhaps, the 2011 S9vs will make this signal worth adding to
   the regular Peerless system.  The new gains from it, over and above the regular Peerless
   still are only marginally convincing.   But for traders, who want one more way to spot a
   short-term reversal, the results are quite good.  There is only 1 loss in 19 cases, 2.3%,
   and only 6 of the 19 cases had a paper loss of more than 2%. 

   Paper Losses: 
          There was one +3% paper loss, five   +2% paper losses and one 1% paper loss.
          In 12 of 19 cases, the DJI fell immediately or so quickly that there was no paper loss
          of more than 1/2%.
