Signals Definition
There are 3 basic ways in which a stock can trigger a trade signal. While there are hundreds of indicators out there, they all serve more-or-less the same purpose: tell us if a stock is either continuing it’s current move, is reversing it, or it’s breaking up or down from the recent pattern. We chose a couple of straightforward indicators to implement:
MACD Signal: a signal occurs when the MACD line crosses above the signal line (to buy) or falls below it (to sell); this is a continuation type signal; (more info)
WR% Signal: an abbreviation for the “Williams %R”, this signal occurs when the price reverses from recent extremes; this is a trend reversal signal, similar to the more commonly used RSI; (more info)
Strong Signal: triggers when BOTH a MACD and a Williams %R signal at the same time; such confirmation from both technical signals is rare and is usually associated with more important changes in price
Range Signal: occurs whenever a technical breakout (or breakdown) is encountered; in order to trigger a Range Signal, a stock needs to close above (or below) it’s resistance (or support) level, as identified by our system
