8/16/2018 Potential Sector Trade

Unless there is a negative gap, the Sector Model will sell XLP and buy XLE tomorrow.

*NOTE a gap is caused by the difference between the selling position and the buying position.  If the selling position is up more (or down less) then that is a positive gap.

FOSL was in free fall this week, harshly reducing my gains.  It’s doubly painful since I have two positions in it.



As for timing, I’m not due for another stock trade on the Full Model until September.  And even then I’d need a fresh buy.  The most favored stock on my watchlist remains AWK in the Water industry (which is spectacularly unexciting for the market as a whole).



And if I were to trade today I’d take profits on AMED.



But I’m not trading today.



As for the Sector Model, XLP is close to flipping, so I may have a trade as early as this week.
