Some complained before that I should not issue a signal at night while they are sleeping.

I think Red is a futures trader so he would have already been short overnight on his signal at the close - or at least I was - he might have closed some on the open to lock in profits, and maybe looking to make a trend pullback add today depending on the strength of the continued reading.

thanks RF for sharing your signals.

Usually, my outlook lines up with RF's. Not here. I have this muted selloff as merely a warning shot. Higher next, for a day or two. THEN, I will turn quite bearish ... IT degree. Possibly LT as well, but that's only low probability. The LT turn is coming, likely later this spring.

I was attempting to get Red's view on how to handle the gap. Looks like I got your view. Obviously no one could have acted on the signal last night EXCEPT Red, so given that, I'd say it might be important to know what you would do today, wouldn't you say? Selling on a gap down day in an up market is a tough way to go most of the time, and today was no exception.
