This was a horrendous week for the Options Only account, at least early on.
We got stopped out of 4 out of 5 positions on the 50% Rule before the rally.
We finished the week with a net loss of $1,149 bringing the YTD performance In the red to ($2,611).
Last week I said that I wasn’t ready to give up on the bull side of market just yet but was unable to find the proper offsets to a bull market in a small $ 10K account.
The problem of the debt ceiling looms ahead as do so many other political issues. Most of the traders that are regulars on CNBC, FFN, or Bloomberg TV seem to all have divergent opinions. Without Uncle Ben Bernanke the buy a dip mentality is in doubt.
AAII numbers below show the lowest bullish and highest bearish consensus in recent memory (everybody is never right ). We are still oversold on the S&P500 daily and we have what looks like a “key reversal” on the weekly chart. Also, Gann players love the “4-legged pattern.”
Another plus is the fact that we closed the gap on the daily S&P500 from the highs in mid-January vs. the 200 day MA. On Jan. 21 when the S&P closed near 1850 the 200 day MA was 1681 or 9.1% above the MA. On Feb 5 the close was 1773, with the MA @ 1696, we were only 4.3% over (at the low that day we were 1737 or only 2.3% over the MA). This compares with the two most recent lows (before rallies) of 5% on both the August and October lows.
All that said, any further rally will take us from mildly oversold into neutral or even overbought status. S&P500 should have some resistance @ 1825 and support @ 1740-1750. A little sideways action would certainly further define the risk profile of the market…

For those of you who do not buy puts to protect your portfolio, there are many ETF’s that are the inverse of the DOW. The symbols are DOG, DXD, SDS,TZA and RWM, which go up when the DOW, S&P 500 and Russell 2000 go down and down when they go up. The DZZ goes up double when gold goes down.

Recommendations And Overall Comments
New Trades
We had four closed out stock positions last week.
Our losses for the new year were increased to $ 6,755.
For the full year 2013 we had realized gains of $ 53,556.
We have open position losses of about $ 6,727 most of which are held over from last year.
We also have not counted dividends received on stocks like Apple, Nordic American ( NAT ) and JP Morgan.
We have two long options positions:
The Stock table has the following 18 positions:
The options call for a $ 2,500 investment unless otherwise stated; each stock position requires $5,000 unless specifically stated.
We are basing money management on a hypothetical $ 100,000
and are using $ 2,208 in two options positions and
$ 72,801 in 18 stock positions
totaling $ 75,009 with
$ 24,991 in cash.
These figures are approximate. We do not count commission costs and there may be errors.
Executions that have occurred at or near the open or close of trading sometimes vary from our actual numbers. For example, when something opens down and it is through our price, we take the next trade whether it is an uptick or continues lower. This sometimes results in a 50% trade that is slightly above or below the exact number.

Economic Data
Nonfarm Payrolls rose meagerly in January to 113,000 new jobs well below expectations of 185,000. However, November Jobs were revised higher to 237,000 from 200,000. The Unemployment Rate fell to 6.6% from 6.7% However, Household employment numbers rose sharply. In the background, the Fed remains accommodative. Investors assume that in the event of serious economic pullbacks, the Fed will be most accommodating. That is known as the Yellen Put.
More deleterious to the markets was the weak ISM Manufacturing Index which fell to 51.3 in January from 56.5 in December and a consensus of 56, which was the largest one month decline since October 2008. The New orders growth section suffered a drop to 51.2 in January from 64.4 in December, the worst decline since December 1980. This sharp decline did not correlate well with regional surveys from Federal Reserve Banks. The number was a shock, even though blamed on the weather, caused the S&P to slip 2.4% to 1741.89 from an opening value of 1783.

Trading Fundamentals
Consumer Services was the leader of the eight winning Dow Industrials up 1.61%. Basic Materials rose 1.24%; Financials 0.82%; Consumer Goods 0.72%; Technology 0.69%; Industrials 0.53%; Oil and Gas 0.50%; Health Care 0.45%. there were 2 losers Utilities off 0.77% and Telecommunications down the most 2.14%.
So far this year, Utilities have been a bright spot with a respectable year-to-date gain compared to many other sectors that are currently in the red. Perhaps the Utilities are rallying because interest rates are falling and their dividends are beginning to look attractive again or perhaps they are advancing because U.S. growth is improving which in turn should drive energy demand. Most likely, Utilities’ success in 2014 is a combination of these reasons and others. As can be seen in the following chart of the Utility Sector Index (UTY), seasonal strength typically begins following an early March bottom and lasts through mid-October. Seasonal factors combined with the current trend and fundamentals make Utilities attractive.

Cycles
With nearly $5 billion in assets and average daily trading volumes in excess of 10 million shares per day over the last three months, SPDR Utilities (XLU) is the top choice to hold during Utilities seasonally favorable period. It has a gross expense ratio of just 0.16% and comes with the added kicker of a 3.82% dividend yield. XLU could be bought on dips below $38.21. Based upon its 15-year average return of 10.7% during its favorable period mid-March to the beginning of October, an auto-sell price of $46.53 is set. If purchased an initial stop loss of $34.55 is suggested.
A bitter cold winter can be the forerunner of a significant March rally upon the advent of Spring. Every year since 2006, there has been a nice gain in the bullish ETF’s from Feb to April.
Disclaimer – Rule 17 B Attestations
Princeton has approximately 2,581,578 shares of AIVN both free and restricted and represents them for I.R.. Princeton also has about 40,000 shares of TXGE. Princeton is paid $ 1,500 per month from RMS Medical Products. Princeton has bought 81,100 shares of RMS Medical Products. Princeton will be engaged by Target Energy. No contract is currently in place. When there is no movement in penny stocks, even though there is none or very small losses, we will liquidate ( sold AIVN on stop ) even though we like the company, if money is needed for better opportunities. We now believe REPR represents upside opportunity. The Target ADR trades at about $ 4.50 in U.S. vs 0.045 in Australia. Princeton owns 400,000 Australia shares and about 500 U.S. ADR’s. Princeton is paid about 500,000 shares of Leo Motors.
