The last two days I filled you in on the DP Alert Daily Report and the DP Daily Update, both in the DP Reports blog. Today I'll cover the Market Recap and Expanded Market Summary Reports. Both are concise summaries of market action from not only today, but the past 5 and 15 days. They include not only price data, but also signals from the Price Momentum Model and Price Momentum Oscillator. Let's review the Market Recap first, it does look similar to the DP Alert Report, but it doesn't contain the market posture and Trend Model signals that are in the Alert.


The Daily Market Recap is made up of two main parts. The first part is the price data for major indexes, currencies and sectors, followed by a table that lists these components sorted by percent change. I find this section especially useful to see what indexes or sectors were the big winners for the day and the biggest losers. Here is a copy from yesterday of these two sections:

The final portion of the Market Recap includes PMO and PMM signals. These are mechanical models created by Carl Swenlin. The PMO is the shorter-term model and the PMM is the longer-term model. Section one shows the indexes ranked by relative PMO strength. The next two sections show the signals for each of the models. And the final section compares the two in one table. The Hot/Cold Group & Blinkers are defined at the bottom of the report, but here is a review from yesterday's blog

These groups and "+" "-" symbols add even more dimension to the ranking. They tell you which way momentum is currently swinging.

The PMO Rank is based on the PMO value, the higher the value, the stronger the momentum and internal strength of that index. The report also shows you how the rank has changed over the past 5 and 15 days. I also like that you can see the percentage price change not just for that day, but for the past 5 days and 15 days. 

Let's look at the Hot/Cold Group and blinkers. The groups are on a scale of 1 to 6, with 1 being 'hottest' and 6 being 'coldest'. They are hot or cold based on their internal strength, price strength and rank strength. We can quickly assess the condition of these elements by the group number and "blinker" fields. Moving from left to right: The first blinker tells us if the PMO is above (+) or below (-) its10-day exponential moving average (EMA). The second blinker indicates if the closing price is above (+) or below (-) it's 20-DMA. The third and fourth blinkers tell us if the PMO is rising (+) or falling (-), and if it is above (+) or below (-) zero. The fifth blinker tells us if the 5-day PMO rank change is positive (+), negative (-), or the same ( ).

So if we look at the first row, the Oil Index is only in group 3, "lukewarm" group. The blinkers reading across tell us the PMO is above its 10-EMA and its closing price is above its 20-DMA. The PMO is falling but it is above zero. In the past five days it has not changed rank.


MARKET INDEXES RANKED BY STRENGTH

This section ranks market indexes by Price Momentum Oscillator (PMO)
relative strength so that we can observe rotational trends and identify the
sectors that are gaining or losing strength.

PMO (PRICE MOMENTUM OSCILLATOR) CROSSOVER SIGNALS

The PMO generates BUY or SELL Signals when it crosses up or down through
its 10-DMA. These signals tend to be short-term in duration, but they can
last for several weeks. Do not take them at face value because they can
whipsaw quite a bit. They should be used to alert you to possible trading
opportunities not used as a mechanical trading model. Always check our daily
stock charts to verify the price pattern and the configuration of the PMO.
Signals are best when price appears extended, is near support or resistance,
and the PMO is very overbought or oversold. These signals may also be used to
manage positions based on the longer-term Price Momentum Model signals.

PRICE MOMENTUM MODEL SIGNALS

The SWENLIN PRICE MOMENTUM MODEL is intended to catch long-term price moves.
Model Signals are mechanically generated by a 200-day exponential moving
average crossover in conjunction with a 10% price move in the opposite
direction of the current signal extreme. For example, assume that the current
signal is a BUY. If the price drops 10% from the signal high, and also drops
below the 200 DMA, a SELL Signal will be generated automatically. The
MOMENTUM MODEL SIGNALS work best when prices are trending and changing
direction smoothly. When prices are volatile, particularly in a 10% range,
results will be extremely poor. By design, these signals will always miss at
least the first 10% of a move. Rather than wait for a signal reversal, it is
best to use trend analysis and other indicators to decide when to exit a
position. New signals should alert you to the possibility that a change in
direction is taking place. Once alerted, watch price movement and other
indicators to determine an optimum entry point, if any.

SHORT-TERM (PMO) and LONG-TERM (PMM) SIGNAL COMPARISONS

The Price Momentum Model (PMM) signal provides guidance regarding the
longer-term trend, and the Price Momentum Oscillator (PMO) signals identify
the shorter-term trend. A logical trading methodology is to open positions
on new PMO signals when they are compatable with the PMM signals. Positions
may be closed or hedged when the PMM and PMO signals are in conflict.

This section compares the PMO and PMM signals side by side and provides
some mechanical analysis. A "Warn!" flag is an alert that the PMO signal is
in conflict with the PMM -- closing or hedging the PMM position may be
considered. A "Buy?" or "Sell?" flag is an alert that the PMO signal has
just changed and is the same as the PMM signal -- opening new PMM positions
may be considered.

The list is sorted in order of PMO relative strength.

**************************** VALUE RANGE ANALYSIS ***************************

The yield for the DJIA, DJTA and the S&P 500 has historically moved
between a range of 3% (overvalued) and 6% (undervalued). The normal yield
range for the DJUA is between 3% and 12%. Decision Point expresses this
range as an RVR (Relative to Value Range) value of between 0 (undervalued)
and 100 (overvalued). Values can fall outside that range, and, when they
do, indicate even greater extremes of market valuation.

IMPORTANT!! Dividend changes can radically alter the RVR.
