Understanding Technical Indicators - Avoid Faults

By BradMatheny
I received a question from a member today related to Divergence on RSI or Stochastics.

I've been lucky to actually sit down with the creator of Stochastics, George C. Lane, to discuss his indicator and how he used it to trade.

I've also been luck to be able to attend multiple industry conferences over the past 20+ years where I've been able to watch and listen to dozens of the best technicians and analysts explain their techniques.

Boy, those were the days - right?

This video is going to help you understand most technical indicators are designed based on a RANGE of bars (usually 14 or so). This means they are measuring price trend/direction/strength/other over the past 14 bars - not longer.

And because of that you need to understand any trend lasting more than 14+ bars could result in FAILURE of the technical indicator.

Watch this video. I hope it helps.

Get some.
