+18% on the S&P 500 by following SBV Flow
This week's SBV chart example is based on the 15-day SBV Flow (Selling/Buying Volume Flow) S&P 500 chart and it is a continuation of the previous chart examples where the last signal was to buy.
Chart 1. S&P 500 index futures. 15-day view. 1 bar = 15 minutes. SBV Flow (14,5)
It's Simple and Profitable
- Rule #1: Go "Long" ("Buy") when SBV Flow crosses zero line (becomes positive) and moves above it.
- Rule #2: Go "Short" ("Sell Short") when an indicator crosses zero line (becomes negative) and starts to move below it.
