“Many traders, especially those who have not traded very long, find trending declines very difficult to trade. Many trading and analytical tools which perform well in uptrends, or even in sideways patterns, often perform differently in downtrends. This is not to say such tools will not work well in a downtrend, but, realistically, many perform differently…”

Mahmad,

I would just follow the trend until it ends. Predicting tops or bottoms in any market is impossible to do on a consistent basis.

All the best,

Adam

Hi, do you guys have the backtested results for these strategies using the trade triangles?
I know there were one too many terrible whipsaws for certain counters during periods when the markets were ranging.

Are there reccommended Counters to use these strategies on? Say for forex and stock indices?

Harold,

Thank you for your feedback. At the present time we are positive on the euro. This may change sometime in the future based on our Trade Triangle technology, but for the moment we remain positive.

All the best,
Adam

Jim,

I took a quick look at the charts and our Triangle are negative on this market.

I have no idea why the stock is going down and to be frank it is not so important to know why a stock is going down. It is the perception of the market that trumps the numbers you pasted in from Yahoo. The current market perception is negative.

All the best,
Adam
