ETF 2X

This personal blog focuses on the application of my proprietary timers to the US and Canadian stock markets. Models have been developed for which double exposure (2X) ETF's are bought when the timer goes long. Proshares QLD is used for the US market and Horizons Beta Pro HXU is used for the Canadian market.

US Model is Currently in: Cash/Short Term Bond ETF
Canadian Model is Currently in: Money Market ETF/Short Term Bond ETF

Timer Update

My US timer went long on April 01 and since that time the Russell 2000 is up 1.3% since then while the Nasdaq is up 3.5%. My Canadian timer went long on April 04 and since that time the S&P/TSX is up 6.2%. Both timers are still long.
