Market Timing · Signals to watch · Component

The indicators

What is being watched, and what it would indicate — two or three things rather than a dashboard.

The deliverable

What it is

The indicators should be derived from the prerequisites rather than chosen for availability. Each prerequisite has an observable proxy and that is the indicator.

Two or three is enough. More produces a monitoring exercise that nobody sustains.

An indicator that moves at the same time as the market gives you nothing. It has to lead.
