Accountability Report

The February 1st edition of Tech Talk noted that Copper at $2.06 per lb. improved its technical score to +2 at a time when its period of seasonal strength was positive. Yesterday, technical score for Copper at $2.08 dropped to -3. A drop below -2 is a technical signal for trading accounts to liquidate the trade.

Background: Since February 1st, Tech Talk has offered 60 bullish investment ideas with positive seasonality and an initial technical score of at least +2. All investment ideas are monitored daily until either their technical scores fall below 2 and/ or they reach the end of their period of seasonal strength. Expectation is that approximately half of the investment ideas will record a small profit or gain (e.g.Copper) and the remainder will record significant gains. Stay tuned for future accountability reports.
