Tuesday marked a six-day winning streak for the three big indices...

The S&P 500 gained almost 1% the first day of trading - its best start since 1987. The Nasdaq gained 1.5% in Tuesday's trading session. And the Dow ran up to new highs - and continues to trade above 25,000.

Quite an impressive move to kick off the year...

The real question now is whether or not this historical bull rally will continue for the rest of the year.

And the answer lies in this time-tested pattern...

What the "January Effect" Means for Your Money This Year

You may have been hearing some media chatter lately about something called the "January Effect," which refers to a seasonal pattern in which stocks are anticipated to show a bit more bullish resolve in the last week of the year and the first handful of days of the next. Now personally, I'm not one to make any trading or investing decisions based on that theory.

Instead, I turn to technical analysis and my tools, like the Money Calendar. This is one of a suite of proprietary tools that crunches 10 years' worth of information on millions of data points to pinpoint the lowest-risk, highest-probability trading opportunities in the market. But it doesn't make an assessment on the entire market, just the cream of the crop - 250 stocks that you can get in and out of effortlessly.

I've used this pattern to show my readers triple-digit gains in one or two days. Click here to learn more…

In fact, when my patent-pending system's at work, it crunches through 10 years of daily transactions and billions of data points to find countless trading opportunities that could double your money or more in 30 days or less (like the 193.39% we scored in GLD just last week).

As you know, the January Effect focuses on the first five trading days of the year because data shows there's an 86% chance the overall markets will trade higher for the year when the S&P 500 trades to a net positive gain during that time frame. In fact, this has happened in 31 of the last 36 years. And based on the numbers from these past six trading days, the rest of 2018 is looking pretty good.

But there's more than just the January Effect to consider...

That's why right now, I'm looking at the Select Sector SPDR ETFs, which are a series of unique exchange-traded funds that divide the S&P 500 into 10 index funds, and what they're showing in terms of performance over a slightly longer duration: Jan. 1 through Jan. 19 (the standard third Friday of the month expiration).

And here are the results for the first 20 days of the new year...
