Please notethat dollar-weighted put/call ratio's forward-looking window is from one tothree trading days from the signal day (why? in a capsule form, it has to do thepressure the options market makers are under to stay delta neutral while dealing with the3-day stock settlement rule).  Once you are in the trade, you should monitor theup-to-date dollar-weighted put/call ratio reading as confirmationof the trade's direction; or, in case of reversal ofthe dollar-weighted put/call ratio reading, as an exit signal.  

Weare LONG the S&P-500 Cash Index (SPX) from 1121.84 (closing price on 10/12/04) for theTimer of the Year Competition, monitored the Timer Digest service.

 Allthe best;
