Ken,
it is writen in the beginning : Use "current" stock to see the best
Foreign data to trade it [with D-ratio5 or any other indicator.
the second alternative is to use any group/watch List/sector or even
the whole market, "borrow" TMPW data and trade them all.
Is it clear?
It is the same logic with composite tickers : We use in a TTM the
MeanRSI curve to trade the stock/group/sector/market.
In the transcendental manner, we use MSFT RSI to trade INTC or any
other favorite stock. The MSFT RSI is the signal generator for
anonymous buy/sell signals. This is the idea.
