Close - the ranking code would now look like this:

SET{RANK1EE, RANK1A + RANK1B}
SET{RANK1FF, RANK1C + RANK1D}
SET{RANK1GG, RANK1E + RANK1F}
SET{RANK1HH, RANK1G + RANK1H}
set{rank1ii, rank1ee + rank1ff}
set{rank1jj, rank1gg + rank1hh}
set{rank1kk, rank1ii + rank1jj}
SET{RANK, 8 - RANK1kk}

That way you are summing all 8 ETF relative ranks.

It would appear as thought it is GLD on Monday with TLT in a close second.
Correct?

Yes, both clearly "risk off" plays. However, jumping in without a re-allocation signal is not how the system's performance was determined. I think either of these are good trades right now, but both have been riding an up trend (GLD since 4/15, now up about 22%).

Agree with Kevin, get into GLD now you'll risk picking the top. Better wait until the system generates a new number one and then step in.

What if one were just starting to use this filter (that would be me)?

Glad I followed the system at the open and did not put GLD on.
Just an also ran - Barron's over the weekend did a piece and sees gold correcting back down to the $1,500 area (ouch)
maybe even a little lower before it's all said and done with.
I believe the system - equities can run a little further but Europe is still a mess so BND it is.
Thanks Kevin

Important to note - the 14 week timing is based on AGG (or BND), IWM, SPY, and EFA. Adding in GLD would likely result in a slightly different timing signal.
