I find that volume based indicators are more accurate during bull markets. In a bear market condition, my accuracy seems to suffer.

I used MACD and MA crossover mostly, with Williams & volume as guides. Good thing about MA crossover is that it is not very affected by volume. For short term, just use a 7-day. For longer term, use a bigger window. Normally I use the short term one first, then the longer term later. You can use the past data as test and see if it works. Quite accuratte but normally it is our emotion that disappoints ourselves. We tend not to follow the rules because of impatience. For short term, now quite a lot of counters are crossing over... means mini rally coming. We'll see.... All the best. |

Haha..........very challenging isn't it, in such an environment? This is when the 'Skillful' and the real 'Man or Woman' can make the different! Frankly, the money supply in Singapore is still quite good..... it may cost more the borrow soon, though, despite inflations!!! Cheers! | ||

Actually, you're right. I use Acc/Dist and Chaikin - which are volume driven. If the market is illiquid, then this creates a problem for me because the accuracy of my TA analysis suffers.

In this market situation of low volumes, TA isn't very accurate because any counter can easily be manipulated by a single BB.

In addition, different counter wld have different chart settings based on their volatility and price patterns. If use blindly, you'll be blinded too (& suffer losses)..... That's where pple ll start to blame TA and doubt them...... | ||

The 4 set of profitable charts shown are intra-day trades. So those who are not that free to monitor, have to think b4 acting. Obviously they can be also apply to interdays, weeks or months depending on how one looks at it. Brokerage firms would like to have more intraday trading as it churns more business for them. | ||

How rightly so, like all tools they're designed to be used differently for different applications. And of course, practises make perfect! How nice if there is one which is '1-size-fits-all' type of tool Cheers!

http://trade-charts.s-f9.com/ here: the right link. note that by themselves indicators are just tools; you need to know how to apply them rightly in order for TA to be accurate. also, that not all indicators are accurate for all stocks. in fact, as far as possible, i'd advocate using as little and as simple technicals as possible. if you use too many, you're likely to get confused. |
