    September 22, 2011 Stock s React Negat i vely to Cash Neutra l Operat ion Tw ist

    We had a tug or war between an overbought NASDAQ 100 (NDX) and overbought Philadelphia

    Semiconductor Index (SOX) versus negative daily charts for the Dow Transports and Russell2000. NDX closed just above its 50-day simple moving average at 2246 with the SOX on thecusp of its 50-day at 365.89. These key levels will not hold at todays open. Transports andRussell 2000 stayed well below their 50-day SMAs at 4750 and 732.64. In-between are the DowIndustrial Average and S&P 500, which are also well below their 50-day simple movingaverages at 11,615 and 1221.0. The tech-heavy NASDAQ broke below its 50-day at 2594 inreaction to the Feds Operation Twist announced Wednesday afternoon. Again the Dow andS&P 500 failed to hold my annual pivots at 11,491 and 1210.7. Seems to me that the FedsOperation Twist was factored into the recent stock market strength!

    ValuTrader Performance - At the market lows on Monday, September 12th we added six stocks to themodel portfolio bringing the total to twenty portfolio members. This increased the long positions to 29for a hypothetical 36.25% allocation to stocks. This was up from a 27.5% allocation to the long side ofthe market, which was an aggressive call. We booked some gains on September 14 th and 15th endinglast week with 24 long positions in 17 stocks, which is a hypothetical investment of a 30.0% allocationto the long side of the market. Yesterday another long was removed at the open so we reducedthe allocation to 28.75%. We continue to have 8 short positions in 3 ETFs; three shorts in Diamonds(DIA), two in NASDAQ 100 Shares (QQQQ) and three in S&P 500 Sector SPDRs (SPY). We have a10.0% allocation to the short side of the market. This is what Buy and Trade is all about!
