Nothing Goes Down Forever!

Markets are off 3% plus going into the second hour of trading.  For intermediate to long-term investors, I have three trading rules:

1. Follow the relationship between the 15-week EMA and 40-week EMA.  [That is, if the 15-week EMA > 40-week EMA, market trend is up (Bullish).  If the 15-week EMA < 40-week EMA, market trend is down (Bearish).]
2. Follow Rule #1.
3. Don't forget Rule #1 and #2. 

Even though I am very negative (bearish) on our economy going forward, likewise the market, an investor must not let one's emotions take control.  That is why my focus is on the 15/40 EMA strategy.
