Keybot the Quant Turns Bullish

Keystone's proprietary trading algo, Keybot the Quant, turns bullish today at SPX 1661. Copper provided the positive answer from last evening so it all lined up for the bulls. Both JJC 39.94 and RTH 53.74 were overtaken to make for happy bulls, ditto XLF 19.94. All these numbers remain important for Tuesday. As always, watch for a whipsaw move back to the bear side, which would only manifest if you see weaker financial and retail sectors. More information is found at Keybot's site;

  1. Keystone did you ever think about getting a twitter account so you can give these signals in real time ?

    1. The Keystone and Keybot web sites do have Twitter and Facebook accounts. Keybot is not designed to catch tops and bottoms so some times it is better to enter after Keybot does since the SPX may pull back but maintain the bullish call allowing a better entry than Keybot received. A few SPX handles do not make much difference over a long year's time.

    2. Ok so you do have a twitter account. Would it be so hard to tweet your signal in real time? 10-15 handles is a big deal to some.

      Thanks.

    3. KS operates outside the edge of the regulated investment world. He is allowed to operate here because he claims this is all fun and games and no one should take what he does or says seriously. He waited til the close yesterday to claim he reversed his short and went long on the open. Thus creating the illusion of a winning sequence. In the regulated world this kind of trickery gets you sent to jail or worse. My quess is he washed out as an investment professional because he could not get away with fooling the public like he can here.

    4. OK fine than just don't ask for donations if you can not provide a timely signal even if it is all fun and games.

    5. man you guys are all a bunch of nervous babies in need of mommy.

      Grow a pair if you are going to trade - do your own back testing from the signals on the site and see if you want to follow the KS' algo or not.

      No wonder it's taken Americans over 10 years to regognize their complicity in endless WAR EMPIRE and yet even now they are mostly followers doing what they are told. "TELL US WHAT TO DO AND WHEN!" they cry!

    6. People that want to follow this site should have a prompt signal not 20 points later... has nothing to do with your mommy or mine.

  2. I have been a casual viewer of keystonespeculator for a couple of years now, but rarely have I made a comment or even looked at the comments because they are mostly distractions for me. A few people are wondering why the moderator refrained from updated postings for Friday and Monday. I can only speculate, but the immature postings and name-calling by a couple of posters recently has detracted from the purpose of the blog, which is to share information and be helpful to each other. If I was the moderator and had to put up with the behavior of some of the posters, I would pull the plug too. If your post is helpful and constructive, post it. If your objective is to "prove you are right" and slander your fellow traders, nobody needs this, bullish or bearish. No, I am not the moderator. Good trading EVERYONE and thank you KS.

    1. Well said Anon. Anything can be pulled at anytime, even individual comments, as well as deleting any comments, or nixing the comments section in general. But nothing has been pulled or altered, only spam, or a post that does not properly conceal profanity words with asterisks.

      Remember all, trading is all about time frames. As a trader, you are never only long or short, you are short over the ____ time frame, or you are long over the _____ time frame. The bull or bear direction always has to be referenced to time. So it is okay to be long VST (hours and a day or two) and short for the ST (days moving into weeks) at the same time, in fact, this is the way trading should be viewed, or visa versa, short and long, or even long and long in these time frames, or short and short. This is what a trader does. It also minimizes risk creating diversification and hedging. The put/call ratios should not be faded. They indicate that something wild is about to happen resulting in a market selloff. Even if non-believing, simply send more dough into cash and wait a couple weeks to see what happens.

  4. Lots of moaning in the above comments. The idea is to build your own platform using ideas presented on the site that match your trading personality. The daily comments on Keybot's site is what provides the road map so you know what will occur, as is explained as it happened. Keybot's updates are posted if time is available, if not, then things are brought up to date later. There is no mystery, it all is described as it occurs. Instead of looking for a fish dinner, many of you have to work harder and find a way to make your own fish dinner. Everyone sure has vivid imaginations about things, reading a lot into things that is not there. At least this serves as the amusement and entertainment goal of the site.
