This is based on the overbought levels and a few other indicators, like a very high number of stocks above their 50MA and a very low VIX.

It’s not a fundamental case and I’ve got no opinion as to what the economy is or isn’t doing. I just think at this point it’s a higher probability trade than being long.

The Superstitious Fund Project is a live one year experiment where an uncanny algorithm or SUPERSTITIOUS AUTOMATED ROBOT will trade live on the stock market. The financial instruments it will be using will be spreadbetting on the FTSE 100.

The superstitious trading algorithm will trade purely on the belief of NUMEROLOGY and in accordance to the MOON. It will for example have the fear of the number 13, as well as generating its own beliefs and new logic for trading

Anti-boob*:

*Many in the stock-blogo-sphere accompany their posts with pictures of “hot” women. I take it upon myself to continue elevating your taste in the visual diversion, and I’m calling the initiative “anti-boob” (although there will be occasional nudity).
This particular piece is a parody on Van Gogh. Not the master himself, but we gotta start somewhere!
