Yesterday was a classic whammy day, gap lower on the open and finish strong at the end of the day. The markets have been chaotic and I purposely trained my Stock NeuroMaster neural net models to compensate for this volatile behavior.

iShares MSCI Brazil Index (EWZ): BUY signal on 1/22/08, entered 1/23/08 @ $66.11, recommendation to HOLD (current close @ $76.49, Gain +15.7%)

PowerShares QQQ Trust (QQQQ): BUY signal on 1/28/08, entered 1/29/08 @ $44.58, recommendation to HOLD (current close @ $45.16, Gain +1.3%)

Shanda Interactive Entertainment Ltd (SNDA): SELL signal on 1/28/08, entered 1/29/08 @ $30.01, recommendation to HOLD (current close @ $27.49, Gain +8.40%)

Exxon Mobil (XOM): BUY signal on 1/29/08, entered 1/30/08 @ $84.54, recommendation to HOLD (current close @ $85.70, Gain +1.37%)

So far these positions from the model are working out nicely, even in the current market place. I’ve attached an image for the last 15 signal bars generate by the program for EWZ. You can see that the mode is trained very well and generates, in this case, good signals at the right time.

FYI, I actually have some real money riding in Exxon Mobil (XOM) based on my model’s recommendation. You can test this program out for free for 14 days.
