What is the meaning of "Long", "Short", or "Cash" signals?

When we publish a signal that says 'long', this means we are buying DIA at market price right after a signal is generated. When we publish a signal that says 'cash', that means we are closing our DIA position and are remaining in cash until a new signal is generated. When we publish a signals that says 'short', we sell DIA short (and make money as the index moves lower).

If you would like to follow our signals without ever having to go short (as shorting can sometimes be risky), simply remain in a cash position whenever we publish a 'short' signal.
