A little further explanation on executing my plan outlined above. I am slow to enter and to exit a trade, not necessarily doing so on the same day that the moving averages cross. Since these are low volatility stocks, they do not move too far too fast which allows me to wait for a pullback to enter and to wait a day or two to exit to eliminate and false crosses down. I also monitor the dividend record dates closely to make sure I don't exit a position a day or two or three before capturing the dividend.

Spauken- How do I read the crossup column? What does a 1 mean as opposed to a 4 ?

The crossup column is the number of times over the past year that the fast MA has crossed above the slow MA, or in other words, the number of long trades over the past year. It's also an indicator of trendiness of the ETF. Lower numbers are better as I want to be invested most of the time to collect dividends.
