ARE YOU LOOKING FOR AN EDGE?
The Intra-Day Momentum Method is not a Trading System, but a guide to help traders determine intra-day direction. The Intra-Day Momentum Method points out price levels that have been historically significant. The Levels are labeled ML 1 for Momentum Long Level Up and MS 1 for Momentum Short Level Down. Once ML 1 Level has been reached, a stock will have closed above the Open over 70% of the time and above the ML1 Level 49% of the time. Once the MS 1 Level has been reached, a stock will have closed below the Open over 70% of the time and below the MS1 Level 47%. Actionable, scalable, timely research delivered to your web-browser everyday.
DOES TREND FOLLOWING GIVE A TRADER AN EDGE?
Using The Intra-Day Momentum Method Model is expanded to three levels in each direction. Using the model to identify a trend, we calculate the probabilities of the next level being met. Our research suggests that if the high of the day is .01 higher than the ML1 Level, then the close of the day is at or above ML1 50% of the time, an increase of 1% over the 5 years studied. If the low of the day is less than the MS1 Level by .01, then the close of the day has been at or below the MS1 Level 48% of the time. This is an increase by 1% over the 5 years of data studied.
