Don't feel bad. Wall Street has conflicting signals too. The cyclicals are rising and the growth sector is not.
For bonds, price action was bullish all week last week and was still bullish today. Very, very hard not to jump in. That darn dollar...
You probably did the right thing. I haven't because of my strick adherance to the rules and criteria constituting my method.
That's exactly why I went ahead. Positive RSI/MACD divergences on daily charts are a good signal after a long decline. And, an apparent five wave count into the lows doesn't hurt much either. Stick with what works for you Steve.
We're probably just two or three days apart to start riding a wave that will probably last, oh, between 4 and 6 weeks.
