$XLY & $WMT spread z-score

entry
z < -1 std => long 1/3 of total lots
long WMT & short h * XLV

z < -2 std => long 2/3 of total lots

profit
z > 0 std => out 1/3 lots
z > +1 std => out 1/3 lots
z > +2 std trailing 1/3 lots

stop
z < -3 std. out.
XLY-WMT spread vs $VIX

when XLY-WMT z-score < -1 std (greed zone), #VIX spiking secured in 1-2 wks time-frame

should be confirmed by many of my other breadth & Jaws indicators

also huge warning, when VIX crushed, but the spread rising. stealthy sector rotation in Jan 2018
The 4+ year correlation b/w
1 XLY-WMT spread z-score
2 $VIX
3 > 0.7

tradeable corr & z-score

how about I scan tons of other similar growth/value sectors & stocks, charting their spread z-score & corr with VIX & Sector ETF? along with PCR

Hmm greatest breadth indicator ever?🧐
Probability of $XLK (or $QQQ) outperforming $SPY by 3.2 sigma (std-dev) = 0.13%

In other words, the prob of XLK-SPY spread returning back to mean is 99.87%, if "Gravity"🦃acting like 2002🙃

last 4.6 yrs, the spread b/w SPY-XLK was
+1 std-dev & -1 std-dev except Jan 2018

crazy.
XLF-QQQ pair spread:

z-score = 4.3 sigma as of Aug 26 close.

a new record.

super bad market breadth across the board.

Worse than Mar 2000

what super bullish trend?

just pumping 5 mega-cap tech stocks.

A->B; B -> A Ponzi continues until 🦃🦃
I heard somebody yelling:

"give me a 4.5 sigma" ==> like a level 10 earthquake

okay, here we go

XLU-QQQ spread z-score = 4.5 => level 10 earthquake

Sector rotation to "value" stocks cancelled by Powell & his ardent followers: Robinhooters & BTFD monkeys

this will end well?
people asking what is a 10 sigma event..

see below chart for a 4.5 sigma event.

XLU:QQQ linear regression lines:

the last 10-days scatter plot vs:

blue = 5-year regression (sigma calculated from 5-year)
green = 2.5 year regression
purple = 1 year regression
Ha. my screener laughed at me.

what 4.5 sigma (XLU-QQQ)?

here is a 6.02 sigma.. haha.

WMT-TSLA spread z-score = 6.02 sigma.

WMT = staple, non-cyclical, value, defensive stock
TSLA = no words; a cult stonk; beyond "gravity"

Yes. super bullish. party like 1999.
Top 20 QQQ companies in term of market-cap (weight):

$INTC & $CSCO are outliers 🧐==> value stocks 🙃😎
Top 42 QQQ stocks in terms of market-cap.

I am pushing the limit here.

Can I squeeze 100 charts in one screen? 🧐🙃
experiment:

changed the DPI to 1200, exporting to a PDF file

more clear than DPI 100 default setting in Matplotlib
$TSLA "Cult" Valuation justified?

$TSLA EPS Est by analysts to justify the insane valuation

from 90 days ago to current est: trending higher; of course to justify the valuation

notice the difference between the RED bar & Green bar

can they make it?

the BAR is too high 🦃
LOW:HD Pair trading example:

LOW:HD pair spread z-score = -2.1; hedge ratio = 1.81

Both at ATHs, but $HD underperforming $LOW

I like $HD; I am biased; 🧐👌
S&P-500 Sector rotation & relative strength table

all sector relative strength in one table

ex:
SPY-QQQ pair: (5-year data)

Z-score= 3.53 sigma (QQQ outperforming SPY)
Z-score HL= 0.93; at 93% relative to 5 year high & low
Z-score max= 5 year high #
Z-score min= 5 year low #
SPY-QQQ pair spread Z-Score Plot (5 year)

SPY-QQQ z-score = 3.53 sigma,
at 93% relative to 5 year Hi-Lo range

super bullish? or super-duper bubble? 🦃🙃👌
My favorite.

INTC-TSLA pair spread z-score = 7.11 sigma (a record)

TSLA #5 on the QQQ market cap list
INTC #11

crazy valuation. 10 sigma next week? or 20 sigma?

a picture is worth a million words.

I need more colors 🙃👌
💰💰If you can only monitor one indicator for: 💰💰

1 BTFD - below fear zone, BTFD on cross-over
2 STFR - above euphoria zone & Jaws (divergence), STFR on trend-line break

my super smart dog Algo strategy

thanks to my "genius" dog, divulging her trillion $ strategy for free👍
For Market profile gurus

some people claimed they had a hard time grasping the z-score sigma chart

I did a quick & dirty "market profiling" for the z-score

1 POC or TPO=point of control almost perfectly aligned with 0 mean

2 VAH-VAL=70% of the volume traded

statistics & prob
Correlation study:

SPX-Gold correlation 50-d
SPX-VIX correlation 7-day
SPX-VVIX correlation 7-day

A. 2 out of three aligned = good prob (> 70%🦃)
B. 3 out of three alighed = excellent prob ( > 85%🦃)

C. today? yep. 3 out of three stars aligned

left tail risk is rising BIGLY
