Use the xTrend Indicator To Determine The Major Market Trend...

The xTrend Indicator (free with Live-Hot-Scans) is an ideal additional tool traders can use to determine the major market trend. It is especially useful for deciding when to trade 100% Bullish stocks, or when to trade 100% Bearish stocks...

Ideally (and you should put this to the test yourself to truly witness the value) you should look for 100% Bullish stock trading opportunities from our Live-Hot-Scans screen as soon as the xTrend starts moving up from below the 50%-line.

Similarly, you should look for 100% Bearish stock trading opportunities from our Live-Hot-Scans screen as soon as the xTrend starts moving down from below the 50%-line.

The xTrend Indicator allows you to capture major market swings, not only in individual stocks but also the major indexes, such as the Dow Jones Index, or S&P 500 Index...

The table below shows every one of our xTrend turning-point signals, focusing only the Dow Jones Index, tested since we launched our xTrend Indicator. Every signal is recorded below, both winners and losers, no exceptions...

Important Note 1: There are 4 columns in the top table. The first columns shows the trade (or signal) number (1, 2, 3...). The second column shows the actual signal (including Dow entry point). The third column shows 'dT-Results' based on our own exit-criteria of closing a trade if a fixed stop-loss % (currently 3%) is hit, or the xTrend treverses from long-short or short-long.

Important Note 2: You may adapt your own 'exit-rules' instead of waiting to the xTrend to turn around, which can improve the performance substantially. Indeed, many of our members experiment with the xTrend to find their own ideals, some taking 100-150 point profits in the Dow per signal, others adapting to maximizing profits through fuller swings but exiting earlier (ie., not waiting until the actual turning point) when the xTrend starts to lose momentum and evens out). One of the best ways of exiting is to watch the xTrend Indicator even out, or rise above 60% (to exit long positions) or drop below 40% (exit short positions).

Important Note 3: Column 4 show you the 'maximum possible' profit achievable in a trade signal. This is the 'extreme' high or low the Dow reached after a long or short signal respectively. If it is a 'long' signal then this is calculated as the 'highest point' the Dow reached in that trade period. If it is a 'short' signal then this is calculated as the 'lowest point' the Dow reached in that trade period. Of course, we all know and accept that there is no trader who can achieve maximum dollar on any trade, so this is for informational purposes only, to allow traders to see the maximum potential of the xTrend, and use these numbers for further analysis towards finding their own system/exit rules based on the xTrend entry signals.

Important Note 4: Above all else, the xTrend is an exceptional tool for determining when to trade stocks long or short. If you align your stock trading in agreement with the major market trend, you will discover a significant edge in your trading...

The xTrend is the same oscillator whether you wish to trade individual Dow 30 stocks, or the Dow Index itself. You may even use the same oscillator to trade the S&P index, Nasdaq 100 index, FTSE 100 index, or any other major index which takes it's 'cue' from the US markets - the Dow Jones. The xTrend Indicator is published live for our Live-Hot-Scans members (free signup), and a typical entry/exit bulletin (displayed on our Stock Charts page for members) occurs once every 8-10 days.
