Wells Wilder was 10 years ahead of his time. He created analysis tools that are the industry standard back before computers were ubiquitous. His inventions include RSI, ADX, DMI, the Parabolic and much more. His book “New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems” is filled with trading ideas. He developed his ideas into trading systems that are brilliant, original and some of the most difficult to program of any I have examined.
His Parabolic system includes a twist that requires the parabolic to maintain its distance from the price action. He does this by combining it with the highest high or lowest low of the last N bars. This helps stabilize the parabolic and avoids many unnecessary whipsaws. The Trend Balance Point system takes short trades based on the acceleration and deceleration of the market. The Reaction Trend is the first system I have seen that combines both trend following trades with reaction trades in one system in order to take advantage of both trending and congested markets. Here is a complete listing of what you get.
