Hi Peter,
I watch the parabolic indicator on my charts and use it as one
of several indicators. I think the reason you don't hear to much about it
is the correct name is Parabolic Stop & Reverse. The original idea was to
keep you in the market at all times and to reverse directions on each signal
change. This is great in a strongly trending market but has to much whipsaw
for most trading. However once a trend has been established it will keep
you in the trade, better than just using a price target and get you out if
the trend has changed.
Good luck and
good trading,
Ray
