A big plus of the system is, that it keeps you away from buying into broad market weakness when it gets really bad like in 2008 and during the 2 recent months. Good work Kevin!!!

Finally a new BUY signal from the Z-score filter.
CF Industry Holdings (CF).
------------------------------------------------
Hi Kevin,
For some reason my filter doesn't show the CF buy signal - I haven't edited your filter at all so I can't figure out why it is different - was this an intraday signal?
I did see the APOL buy signal with the filter yesterday though.
Thanks Kevin!

knightvictor....CF did not show today but did yesterday and the day before. Click on the filter on page 1 and click previous in the offset. It should be there. If it isn't you may want to reload the filter.

Looks like both COG and EQT are BUY signals (at 3:55 PM with the usual SF delay). Check later on this once final prices are updated.

Thanks for the information - I must have accidently changed something small that made it not show up on my saved filter.

Running this filter at 3 PM today, all current holdings register a SELL signal:
CF - in at 163.67, now at 157.17 (-3.97%)
EQT - in at 56.62, now at 59.10 (+4.38%)
APOL - in at 42.28, now at 42.91 (+1.49%)
COG - in at 61.66, now at 67.71 (+9.81%)
No new BUY signals as of 3 PM today.
UPDATE:
Well, the giveback at the end of the day reversed all of the SELL signals. All stocks are still in HOLD mode, with the zscore(16) having to be above -1 to trigger a sell. Here's where they stand:
COG: zscore(16) at -1.04 (up 7.49%)
EQT: zscore(16) at -1.10 (up 2.74%)
CF: zscore(16) at -1.14 (down -5.33%)
APOL: zscore(16) at -1.60 (up 0.14%)

Here is how I am monitoring for sell signals (even intraday)
I look at the zscore(16) to cross above -1. Right now EQT and COG are SELL signals, while CF and APOL are still HOLD.

Kevin
Why did you change SPX to SPY?

For intraday - SF only updates the indices like ^SPX a the end of each day. Therefore, if you are checking intraday, you are unfortunately using YESTERDAY's ^SPX close instead of the current intraday close.
Small change to allow for more accurate intraday review of zscores. BTW, nice to see that people are looking at the filter syntax rather than just blindly following something - nice job.

I know it wasn't back tested this way but you have to wonder if a person shouldn't take his profit any time of day that he sees the z-score go above -1.
