FAIR WARNING.
If you've been checking in on the Daily Color Guard Report, you should be well aware that the market has been as flat as a pancake for the last seven trading days. This pathetic performance is the clearest sign yet that the rally from the March 9th bottom is running out of steam. The "Canary" saw it begin to happen a lot earlier.

The Price of the VectorVest Composite closed at a rally high of $19.57 per share on Monday, May 8th. The Buy, Sell Ratio, BSR, a.k.a., the Canary, also closed at a rally high level of 6.21. After the market moved down the next three trading days, the BSR stood at 3.70. As the market recovered from its three day swoon, and even hit new highs, the BSR did not return to its former high of 6.21. This phenomenon of rising Price and falling BSR is not new to us, and I wrote about it in the Strategy section of the May 22nd Views. I said it defines the end of the "blast-off" phase of a rally and the beginning of the "glide" phase.

Since the glide phase of a rally reflects a period of diminishing price momentum, one should become less aggressive and more defensive in managing their portfolio when the Canary has given Fair Warning.

Our Top 10 VST stocks were up 19.84% during the 4/3/08 to 6/11/08 up market call. That’s an annualized rate of return of 104%. I call that success!!!!

How does 'the end of the blast-off phase of a rally and the beginning of the glide phase' become a sell signal ?

I doesn't, it merely suggested you reduce long exposure but it is far away from being a sell or short signal. The s&p 500 went on to a -4.4% decline after this article 6/12/09 and the lows of 6/17/09, SPX 946.21(end of day) to 904(intraday low) but we know stocks go down alot harder so if you didn't reduce long exposure you got hurt bad. If you went short, absent a sell signal, well it worked this time but that also means you are trading on a whim, and not a system of rules and signals.

Even so, for the novice, it is better than nothing but for the professional, it is not too useful.
