After all we are in this game to profit, this was our best chart for 2013.

The chart is of the lesser known NYSE Major Market Index, made up of 20 top companies. As you can see it cycles very well, which is ideal for option spreads. It does not get any easier that this. The red and blue triangles are RTT Market Timer Signs of Strength signals, where more directional trade can be exercised.

Of course markets change and this chart may not be so hot in 2014.
