Many like to Buy the day before, near the Close, if the Money Wave is going to create a Buy Signal (Closing > 20).

Don’t Buy if the Investment has already popped up too much. Money Wave Buys are usually good for a 3-6 %  move in a few days. We will “Not Log” trades if the Reward/Risk is not at least 2:1.

  1. Hi, I cash out all last week. I still wait to buy stocks another few weeks since I agree your comments and feel falling. I know most of people want to buy a stock since they expect more getting high. I know, usually in this situation, it is danger. However if you see the good volume for market and it is safe to buy, please let us know.

  2. Hi, On August 27th CTL triggered the buy rules but wasn’t Logged due to “volume below average”. This happens often as well with other Tickers where they aren’t logged due to volume average. Im curious and am having a difficult time on how you come to that decision. Do you use a Volume Moving average for example?

    Thank You.
    This might very well be the year I would have to to make a donation to the ASPCA. So far my first positive year thanks to Abovethegreenline

    1. Hi Michael. High Volume CONFIRMS that many agree on the Investment timing.

      Low Volume can say that maybe you are “forcing” a trade, when it is not quite ready.

      CTL is down today, and this time the Money Wave Buy Signal will probably be logged, if the Volume is good.
