This chart tells me it is/was time to buy the Bear FANG 2x and 3x ETF's early this week. Not too late to still get in.

The associated RRC chart is a day behind the individual xxxx:DIAL slope charts above. If you look closely, you can see the leading segment of each ticker line in the bottom left quadrant just starting to curl up. The RRC chart seems to provide good confirmation

Note, you may have to copy and paste the RRC links into your browser to get them to work.
Here is the corresponding Bull FANG 2x and 3x ETF chart.

Again, the associated RRC chart provides confirmation a day or two behind the xxxx:DIAL slope charts. Notice the leading segments in the top right quadrant beginning to roll over. This chart tells me Monday and/or Tuesday of this week was the time to sell these.

And lastly the SPDR sector 2x and 3x Bear ETF's that shows it is still too early to move on the GUSH/DRIP pair.

All this has been working well for me. GLTY
DIAL is a fixed-income ETF, not unlike a money market mutual fund. Stockcharts does not offer money markets funds for charting purposes (mutual funds typically have 5 letter ticker symbols, and money market mutual funds typically have 'XX' as their last two letters). Try a search in Stockcharts yourself. Oddly, you won't find any.
When comparing an ETF to a fixed-income fund on a slope chart, it will display a slope rising or falling compared to the same fixed income value day after day/week after week/fund to fund.
I found when I use the slope of the ticker 'naked' (not comparing it to DIAL) the day to day variations of the slope line often becomes too whippy.
You can see this for yourself when you look at the RRG rotation chart of the SPDR ETF's on Stockcharts. Link here;

Hard to make much sense from it other than what quadrant each fund is in.
The default 'Benchmark' for this RRG chart is SPY. On an RRG chart, Benchmark means this is what each ETF is being compared to.
Now make one simple change. Change the Benchmark fund from SPY to DIAL, and you get this chart.
Much easier for me to see side by side comparisons when DIAL is used as the benchmark
FYI, a Slope chart is basically a linear version of a RRG rotation chart.
All this took me years of trial and error to hone in on this simple method to steadily increase my retirement funds. 4-6 trades per year for each of the twelve 2x and 3x ETF pairs I follow, and I have been able to achieve a 50% to 100% gain/year for the past several years.

The GUSH:DIAL and DRIP:DIAL slopes told me it was still too early today to sell GUSH and buy DRIP, but the six SPDR BEAR pairs I watch did say to me today was the day to buy FAZ, SIJ, and TECS ... RDX too, but I didn't act on that one.

Annotated charts for you. Let me know if questions. GLTY
Here are the corrected charts. In my previous post, I showed all transactions inside the yellow columns as buys, not buys and sells. Sorry for any confusion. GLTY
I read as much as I can, but pay the most attention to the charts. The GUSH/DRIP charts I use are below.

The upper bar chart for each ETF has three EMA's, red, green, and blue. The 13 day EMA is the most important. The 8 is an early indicator, the 21 is a late confirmation indicator. The lower GUSH:DIAL chart is a 13 day slope of the equity compared to a stable value fund with the ticker symbol DIAL. What I pay attention to is the slope chart. I look for the first derivative of the slope to change from positive to negative, and again from negative to positive.

I buy the day after the first derivative from down to up is identified, and sell the day after the up to down derivative is identified. I identify the derivative with a red horizontal line, and identify the first day after, the buy/sell day, with a yellow highlight collum.
The actual performance of all this is measured as follows;
For the 3 month duration shown on these charts and starting with a $1000 amount...
$1000 - 16% = $840 (GUSH on 25SEP)
+7.1% = $899 (DRIP on 2OCT)
+6.8 = $960 (GUSH on 16OCT)
+8.8% = $1045 (DRIP on 2NOV)
Yeah, the past 3 months covered in the above charts shows I am up just $45 for every $1000 at risk. A paltry 4.5%. It has been a tough 7-8 months for the GUSH/DRIP pair. But so far this year, I am up actually ~30%. In years past, when the GUSH/DRIP pair were true 3x EFT's rather than the 2X they are now, I exceeded 100%/year several times.
This works with many other 3x ETF pairs too, such as FNGU/FNGD, SOXL/SOXS, TQQQ/SQQQ, FAS/FAZ, BOIL/KOLD, AGQ/ZSL, UCO/SCO, and LABU/LABD.

I chart the futures, then buy/sell the ETF's. Personel preference.
I see crude oil as currently range-bound between ~$37.5 and ~$45. Draw your own lines though. The first two yellow ovals are recent past. I am watching/expecting the third (dashed line) to be a repeat.
