Before you referred to "retracement tool", I was in general agreement that the
usual lot of "indicators" do not lead the market. However, if we expand the
definition to include trend channels and standard retracements, I do believe we
have leading indicators. By leading, I mean a reasonable indication of where the
market is headed - nothing guaranteed but improved probabilities. Your
definition of leading may vary.
