Geometric trend
It is a unique way to calculate trend strength and does only occur in specific circumstances. When it does, the trend is extremely strong or it’s a sign of trend exhaustion. It’s always good to start looking for potential reversal points when the market is in this mode, especially if a major support/resistance levels/zones are close.
“Heads-up” pullback/reversal – signals
It identify areas where a pullback or a reversal can occur, and if this signal comes when the buying/selling pressure is above the limit value 600 a pullback/reversal is likely.
