200p Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 (edited) Can this signal be wrong this time? I created this in 2012, and we are approaching a decisive breakout, with this simple mechanical system. I believe the EU referendum will make HPI clear that £200K area decisively.

frederico Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Yeah, they keep changing the rules which changes the balance of the equation, htb low rates, MMR. Then BTL stamp duty, phasing out tax relief. Public spending cuts etc Basically the government are running around the pitch with a wobbling set of goal posts made out of rubber. It will not end well and you cannot predict the outcome by looking at what has happened in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuckin2up2down Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 It will not end well and you cannot predict the outcome by looking at what has happened in the past. Exactly, we know the end game but not how / when its going to play out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe tomorrow they'll just give everyone and his dog lots of free money to buy a house and no interest to pay forever. That's the way things are going...

R K Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 (edited) OP you would be better off using your "sell" signal, 2 yr nominal low, as a "buy" signal. But a much simpler approach, assuming one wants to buy a home and can get a mortgage/has cash, is to simply wait for a recession and unemployment volatility spike. Hence 2009/10 was the optimum period exactly as it was it prior recessions It really is that simple Unfortunately if you made that point in 2009/10 you would ne labelled a troll, estate agent, spawn of the devil, socialist etc etc by the very people who are always wrong about everything Edited April 3, 2016 by R K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
200p Posted April 3, 2016 Author Share Posted April 3, 2016 (edited) Thanks for the replies.... everyone, no system's perfect and it is tempting to tweak systems to fit the data. The trick is to be unemotional and reduce your risk to approaching 0 - there are still false signals, which is why I tend to pay attention to major round numbers to act like stop loss bases. I don't have liquid funds to go out and buy a average house in the UK with cash and make that trade work out. A similar system "could" be used to trade anything else however. Do your own research of course. I am not a property investor and don't ever plan to buy investment property, and have scrimped and saved for over 7 years to put down a deposit to buy a house, and I drive a 10 year old car. If house prices continue to go up I just have to shrug my shoulders and say, well that's that. If people want to play that game, (and borrow a lot of money) they can do so. The UK house builder index chart is this: Constituents of the NMX3720 http://www.londonstockexchange.com/exchange/prices-and-markets/stocks/indices/constituents-indices.html?index=NMX&industrySector=3720&page=1 Perhaps when shares magazines start producing Landlord supportive front cover stories it's time to step aside and wait a bit for market confirmation of direction.
