Indicator Recalibration Today

My indicators for both growth and inflation have undergone some changes over the past six weeks. Initially I had eight indicators (four each for growth and inflation). To that I have added an additional six to each for a total of twenty.

Along the way some indicators were dropped since they were too volatile and gave a distorted one day view...i.e. SLV:GLD

Silver being called the 'nervous metal' accounted for much of the gain or loss for the entire inflation index...so I kicked it out.

I'll backdate the new indicators and compare the numbers to the existing indicators which have not been a constant.

My reason for adding additional indicator is that if I only have four...on one side, and it changes it calls for a 25% movement in my portfolio. With ten then only 10% which is both more gradual and also can be easily reversed if the signal proves false.
