Keybot the Quant flips to the long side shortly after the opening bell as semi's jump higher and volatility drops creating a double-whammy of joy for market bulls. Bears need either GTX under 3232 and/or VIX above 14.28 to halt the upside in stocks. Higher copper and/or retail stocks will create further market upside.
The benchmark SPX is up +1.7% this year. The Keybot the Quant algorithm computer program gains a hair on the year. The actual trading results, which factors in commissions, mechanical inefficiencies and other real-life trading aspects remains down on the year about one percent. Keybot exits SDS and enters SSO using the 2x ETF's since a whipsaw has not occurred in the last couple months. The choppy sideways markets continue in 2015 chewing up bulls and bears alike.
