Window 1
shows the daily price bars. The blue diamonds show 20-day trading cycle
bottoms that tend to occur as the DBS10 oscillator makes an oscillator
bottom. The red diamonds show the 20-day cycle tops.Window 2 shows the
Mechanical Buy and Sell Signal Setups. A red down-spike identifies the
price bar for a Sell Setup, and a green up-spike identifies the price
bar for a Buy Setup.
Compare the
oscillator highs and lows with the cycle bottoms (blue diamonds), and
tops (red diamonds). The correlation of the oscillator tops and bottoms
with the price cycle tops and bottoms is very high, allowing the oscillator
to be used to generate high probability Mechanical Buy and Sell Signals.
A Buy/Sell
Setup is NOT a Buy/Sell Signal until it is entered by a rise above the
high of the Buy Setup Bar, or a drop below the Sell Setup Bar. Buy/Sell
Signals should be taken in the direction of trend, and at trend reversals.
Ignore the signals against the trend.
The vertical
green line identifies a Buy Setup Bar generated by an upturn of the blue
DBS10 oscillator. It is a Mechanical Buy Signal, and a buy stop to go
long should be placed above the high of the setup price bar indicated
by the green line - 1 tick to a point, or more, depending upon the market
and time frame your are trading.
The vertical
red line identifies a Sell Setup Bar generated by a downturn of the blue
DBS10 oscillator, and a sell stop to go short should be placed below the
downturn Sell Setup Bar indicated by the red line, 1 tick to a point,
or more, depending upon the market and time frame your are trading.
The Mechanical
Buy Signals for the DoubleStoc10 are generated by a drop below the lower
horizontal blue line, called the Buy Line, which is set at 40, and an
upturn in the oscillator.
It is a 3-step
process.
- The DoubleStoc
oscillator drops below the Buy Line;
- The oscillator
turns up to identify a BUY Setup Bar with a green up-spike;
- Buy the
high of the Setup Bar with a buy stop 1 tick to a point above it.
Buy
Signals should only be taken in the direction of trend and/or at trend
reversals. |
The Sell
Signals are formed in a similar 3-step process.
- The DoubleStoc
oscillator rises above the Sell Line;
- The oscillator
turns down to identify a SELL Setup Bar with a red down-spike;
- Sell the
low of the Setup Bar with a sell stop 1 tick to a point below it
Sell
Signals should only be taken in the direction of trend and/or at trend
reversals. |
Protective
Stop
The
Buy and Bell Signals follow cycle tops and bottoms, so the Protective
Stops are placed 1 tick to a point or more below the apparent cycle low
for a Buy Signal; and 1 tick to a point, or more, above the apparent cycle
high for a Sell Signal. With Protective Stops you are always in "control"
of your dollar risk. |
