Thanks a lot for the detailed reply. I appreciate it very much.
I wish I can get my hands on his book. I live in India and it is not available in the bookstores of my small city (My bad luck). The unreliability of the postal department makes it very risky to order it on the web. (Bad experience, but that is the reality and I am ok with it so far) . Hence I mostly prefer with web based stuff.
I need to digest it before I can use it in a fruitful way. Preston was kind enough to introduce this.
I am sure I will be hollering for help in the forum.
regards
Nand

Hi Nand -
Most of the Guppy "method" can be found in his book Trend Trading.
Essentially it has several components:
1. Drawn trend line
2. Set of short term moving averages
3. Set of long term moving averages.
4. Count back line (CBL). (http://www.guppytra ders.com/ gup332.shtml)
5. Maximum chase line (MCL). (Commonly used if you're late on seeing
the breakout. Shouldn't happen,if you're using the CBL.)
The short and long term moving averages are used to validate changes
in the trend. (When there is a close to the right of the line is
usually taken as the break).
Convergence of short term moving averages anticipates the convergence
of long term moving averages.
The subsequent convergence of long terms moving averages is a further
confirmation. The cross of the short term above the long term is yet
further confirmation.
The CBL has to be crossed before a trade can be taken in his trend
following approach. If the stock has crossed the MCL line, he
suggests waiting.
The following may be useful:

average.html
A free automatic trend line drawer is available at
http://www.daedalus soft.com/ FreeSection/ FreeSectionIndex .html
It's GSautoTL.zip Read his TASC article on it as well.
I'm probably prejudiced, but I believe the best toolkit available for
Guppy MMAs (not much on interpretation but lots of tools) is
available to subscribers of Roy's MSST (I think you'll need to
purchase the back issues.)
http://www.metastoc ktips.co. nz/
More recently MS code for the CBL and MCL has appeared there. Code
for (non automatic, but customizable) trend lines based on 3 bar Tops
and Bottoms has also appeared.
Hope the above has been helpful. Good luck with your use of the MMAs.
Regards,
Ron
