Northeast Regional Bank Stocks Expected To Be Higher After 5 of Top 6 Correlated Stocks Fire Buy Signal.
July 14, 2009 / M2 PRESSWIRE / BUYINS.NET / http://www.squeezetrigger.com is monitoring the top 6 most highly correlated Northeast Regional Bank stocks and 83% of them have fired a buy signal as of July 13, 2009. State Street (NYSE: STT), State Bancorp (NASDAQ: STBC), Independent Bank Corp (NASDAQ: INDB), Washington Trust (NASDAQ: WASH) and Sun Bancorp (NASDAQ: SNBC) are all expected to be higher as 5 of the top 6 stocks in the sector have fired a buy signal. Group rotation is a phenomenon where institutions exert buying or selling pressure in an industry group, pushing prices of the group higher or higher relative to the general market. An industry can often lead or lag the market, and the most highly correlated stocks (mirror closest to the overall move in that group) usually move in unison. The technology used to make these predictions is available for a low monthly fee at http://www.squeezetrigger.com/services/strat/mh.php . The chart below displays the correlation, beta and relative strength of the top 6 most highly correlated stocks in the highlighted industry group:
Name Symbol Correlation Beta RelStr Sector
STATE STREET CORP STT 0.93 1.31 0.97 Regional - Northeast Banks
REGIONAL BANK HOLDRS TR RKH 0.91 0.96 0.98 Regional - Northeast Banks

WASHINGTON TRUST WASH 0.8 0.77 1 Regional - Northeast Banks
SUN BANCORP INC SNBC 0.79 0.44 0.99 Regional - Northeast Banks
We automatically calculate correlation to help find the stocks that most closely match their groupa�s movement and generate powerful group consensus trading signals to profit from the herd mentality. When multiple stocks in a group turn at the same time and the rotation of that group is confirmed, an explosive move typically occurs. Correlation measures the tendency for a symbol to move in unison with the group, beta measures the amount the symbol is expected to move relative to the group and relative strength looks back at the recent past to show how the stock has been moving relative to the group.
The chart below looks at average seasonal moves (Seasonality) over the past 5 years of the stocks mentioned above and predicts an expected move up or down based on the odds (# of times it has happened in the past). Northeast Regional Bank stocks as a group have been up an average of +0.5 in July and +0.3% in August.

SqueezeTrigger.com has built a massive database that collects, analyzes and publishes multiple proprietary trading strategies that predict price moves in stocks, commodities and currencies. The data has then been integrated into an automated trading platform which can be used to connect to a live online broker and automate your trading of each of the strategies highlighted. It is extremely powerful with lightening fast execution at a very low price. Both the trading software and SqueezeTrigger data feed are available at http://www.squeezetrigger.com
One example from the SqueezeTrigger database is approximately 2.65 billion short sale transactions going back to January 1, 2005, and SqueezeTrigger calculates the exact price at which the Total Short Interest is short in each stock. This data was never before available prior to January 1, 2005 because the Self Regulatory Organizations (primary exchanges) guarded it aggressively. After the SEC passed Regulation SHO, exchanges were forced to allow data processors like SqueezeTrigger.com to access the data. Total Short Interest is the number of shares shorted but not yet covered, and is different from total short volume.

About SQUEEZETRIGGER.COM
WWW.SQUEEZETRIGGER.COM is a service designed to help bonafide shareholders of publicly traded US companies fight short selling. SqueezeTrigger.com has built a proprietary database that uses Threshold list feeds and short sale time and sale data from NASDAQ, AMEX and NYSE to generate detailed and useful information to combat the short selling problem. For the first time, actual trade by trade data is available to the public that shows the attempted size, actual size, price and average value of short sales in stocks that have been shorted.

SQUEEZETRIGGER.COM has built a massive database that collects, analyzes and publishes a proprietary SqueezeTrigger for each stock that has been shorted. The SqueezeTrigger database of nearly 2.5 billion short sale transactions goes back to January 1, 2005 and calculates the exact price at which the Total Short Interest is short in each stock. This data was never before available prior to January 1, 2005 because the Self Regulatory Organizations (primary exchanges) guarded it aggressively. After the SEC passed Regulation SHO, exchanges were forced to allow data processors like SqueezeTrigger.com to access the data.
The SqueezeTrigger database collects individual short trade data on over 7,000 NYSE, AMEX and NASDAQ stocks and general short trade data on nearly 8,000 OTCBB and PINKSHEET stocks. Each month the database grows by approximately 50,000,000 short sale transactions and provides investors with the knowledge necessary to time when to buy and sell stocks with outstanding short positions. By tracking the size and price of each montha�s short transactions, SQUEEZETRIGGER.COM provides institutions, traders, analysts, journalists and individual investors the exact price point where short sellers start losing money and a short squeeze can begin.
