These momentum indicators, we are told when we first study them, are to be used in range bound markets where there are clear lows and highs. We can buy and sell close to the lows and the highs using these tools.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What we learn later, is that they have immense value when a security is trending as well.&nbsp; Much research has been done to show how momentum oscillators tend to trade in a range when price is in a strong trend.&nbsp; For example, RSI may range from roughly 40 to 80 in an uptrend.&nbsp; This makes sense because if a trend is strong then we should expect momentum to cool but excessive selling (RSI oversold below 30) would be a concern.&nbsp; In this way a savvy investor can use support around 40 for opportunities to buy into a trend or even add to a position. What we also find is that these momentum indicators are fast moving, and so we may have to shift those levels for different securities or different asset classes.&nbsp; As you can imagine, this can introduce subjectivity back into our process.&nbsp; If the RSI trades down to 38 do we consider that a break of support? Or is it close enough to 40 for it to count as support?&nbsp; What if in a strong trend it doesn&#8217;t get below 50 even?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Look at the chart below.&nbsp; In this strong \u201cGo\u201d trend, RSI doesn\u2019t fall to the line on the chart even once after the first touch.&nbsp; This line is drawn at 50, arbitrarily.&nbsp; We could move the line up, to try to catch the level that can be used as support.&nbsp; This, of course, becomes a subjective practice, and not what we want as a disciplined technician.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/1-14-1100x769.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-198999 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1100px; aspect-ratio: 1100\/769;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-gonogo-oscillator\">2\/ <strong>GoNoGo Oscillator<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Doing the heavy work off camera, GoNoGo Oscillator incorporates several of the most robust and well used momentum indicators into one oscillator that we add to our chart.&nbsp; The oscillator is calculated in such a way that when all of the inputs are in their neutral territory the oscillator produces a value of zero. In this way we can use the information we know about how momentum behaves when a security is trending.&nbsp; The zero line then gives us an objective level of support (in a \u201cGo\u201d trend) and resistance (in a \u201cNoGo\u201d trend).&nbsp; This allows us to stay with the trend, which for trend followers is so important.&nbsp; We are able to \u201clet winners run\u201d or scale into winning positions with relative safety.&nbsp; Look at the chart below which shows the same period of time but with the GoNoGo Oscillator in the lower panel.&nbsp; Look at how when the trend is strong, the oscillator finds support over and over at the zero line (white arrows). When this happens, we can confidently state that momentum is resurgent in the direction of the \u201cGo\u201d trend.&nbsp; Later in the chart, when GoNoGo Oscillator fails to find support at the zero line (red arrow), we know that there should be some concern over the health of the \u201cGo\u201d trend, as any kind of excessive selling does not bode well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/2-5-1100x765.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-199000 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1100px; aspect-ratio: 1100\/765;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-power-of-data-visualization\">3\/ <strong>Power of Data Visualization<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Technical analysts are surely the original data visualization experts of the financial industry! Within the GoNoGo Chart we make every effort to draw the eye of the investor to important moments without cluttering up and complicating the charts. There are two icons that are placed directly in the price action.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first are Trend Continuation Icons.&nbsp; These circles (green in \u201cGo\u201d trends, and red in \u201cNoGo\u201d trends) ahighlight the resurgence of momentum in the direction of a trend. In the previous section, we discussed the importance of being able to use an objective level of support for the momentum oscillator. Using Trend Continuation Icons, the chart highlights the power of GoNoGo Oscillator\u2019s interaction with the zero line when a trend is in place. These can be excellent and relatively low risk opportunities for trend participation.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second set of icons displayed on the chart are Countertrend Correction Icons (red arrows in \u201cGo\u201d trends, green arrows in \u201cNoGo\u201d trends). Within a \u201cGo\u201d trend, a security\u2019s momentum may reach overbought levels, then fall back toward the zero-line. While in a \u201cNoGo\u201d trend, a security\u2019s momentum may fall to extreme oversold levels, and then cool. As the momentum calculations retreat from extreme&nbsp;<em>overbought<\/em>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<em>oversold<\/em>&nbsp;levels, GoNoGo Icons highlight the possible countertrend correction in price. These are examples of using momentum analysis in its traditional sense of looking for price exhaustion.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/3-7-1100x826.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-199001 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1100px; aspect-ratio: 1100\/826;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-apple-inc-surging\">4\/ <strong>Apple, Inc Surging<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the chart below, we are applying both the GoNoGo Trend with icons and the GoNoGo Oscillator to the chart of Apple, Inc\u2019s daily prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apple, Inc (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.investopedia.com\/markets\/quote?tvwidgetsymbol=AAPL&amp;hid=52e0514b725a58fa5560211dfc847e5115778175&amp;did=11015114-20231115&amp;utm_campaign=chart-advisor_newsletter&amp;utm_source=investopedia&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_content=111523\">AAPL<\/a>) had been in a \u201cNoGo\u201d trend since early August.&nbsp; At the beginning of this month we saw GoNoGo Trend paint an amber \u201cGo Fish\u201d bar as it rallied from the most recent low.&nbsp; The indicator was then able to identify a new \u201cGo\u201d trend with an aqua bar.&nbsp; One bar later, GoNoGo Oscillator burst through the zero line into positive territory confirming the \u201cGo\u201d trend in price and telling us that momentum was surging in the direction of the trend (Go Trend Continuation Green Circle).&nbsp; Now, we see that the GoNoGo Oscillator has just fallen out of overbought territory and so we see a Go Countertrend Correction Icon (red arrow) telling us that price may struggle to go higher in the short term.&nbsp; This doesn\u2019t yet mean a reversal, as the weight of the evidence reminds us we are still in a strong \u201cGo\u201d trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/4-5-1100x834.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-199002 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1100px; aspect-ratio: 1100\/834;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-meta-signs\">5\/ <strong>Meta Signs<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the final chart, let\u2019s look at another security through the lens of GoNoGo Charts.

During this period of sideways price action, we see two Go Trend Continuation Icons (green circles) indicating resurgent momentum in the direction of the \u201cGo\u201d trend.&nbsp; This extra momentum, as GoNoGo Oscillator rallies off zero into positive territory, has given price the push it needs to make an attempt at a new higher high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/5-2-1100x829.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-199003 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1100px; aspect-ratio: 1100\/829;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Originally posted 15th November 2023<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Much research has been done to show how momentum oscillators tend to trade in a range when price is in a strong trend.
