Not sure. But it's good!

For those who have been here awhile you may know that I came up with the Bear Catcher moniker for all three:

1. SMA Slope Change
2. Nasdaq NH-NL
3. Dying Bullish Euphoria

When I presented these on the Motley Fool Mechanical Investing board, I had first done a thorough analysis that optimized them based on the full history. In other words, I arrived at settings that may have not been the original author's intent - as in the case of DBE created by Mungofitch. Ultimately, for the sake of my software, and what I presented to the board at the time I used the Nasdaq Composite as the underlying index and found the 110 day to be optimal.

So it looks like this:

In my software the three look like this for 2026.

Of course, you may not agree with these settings and prefer others. You do you! Or in Elan's parlance, you smoke what suits you!
