Back to our highs, again . And what do we do when we hit the 20% line at 3,420 from below? NOTHING!!! What do we do when we cross under it from above shortly after that? We short it! That's right, the 5% Rule™ is not very complicated. In fact, this chart is saved in my StockCharts profile as " S&P 500 Large Cap Index ($SPX) Feb 6 2020 " which means we've been using the SAME chart since before the crisis and we're STILL right where we expected to be over 6 months ago . Remember, the 5% Rule™ is not TA – it's just math! Math is real, TA is not… Math told us we'd bottom out at 2,280 and we went long at 2,280 and did very well and math told us we'll top out at 3,420 and we got much more bearish last week and now we'll see how that plays out. Hopefully, for the sake of the investors that are irrationally exuberant, we won't go down as sharply as we did in March. In fact, we can go down 20% and still be on a bullish track – as long as our "Must Hold" levels do continue to hold. IN PROGRESS
