No problem with that, but I'm going to have to go and figure out what a MACD is now
Still no MACD Patrick? I bet you I could improve my timing significantly with just a simple MACD. Here's how to do it in Excel:
http://investexcel.net/how-to-calculate-macd-in-excel/ MACD's are neat for seeing alignments in timing between fast and slow money, and which moves are more trusted. Simple harmonics and nature loves harmonics and spirals, probably because no-one can escape the Coriolis force on this planet. But now am getting into the quadrivium and sacred geometry and everyone is probably snoozing off. Unless you follow Pythagorus' as well.....
Bollinger bands would also be useful. Simple standard deviation stuff. Bollingers are like the elastic bands of a market, telling you when they're too stretched and need to come back within normal ranges. All very basic human nature stuff.
