Technical analysis is due for a changing of the old guard…
…because it absolutely is not surviving computerized testing.
Even simple indicators like MACD are being used backwards. I wrote about that 20 years ago and nothing has changed.
Recent strength in indicators like MACD and Fibonacci zones have some technical traders bullish for all the wrong reasons.
If I look at what actually works in TA — the inverse of Fibonacci trading or selling MACD buy signals — then they would see that 90% of mega caps are on a sell signal as of this morning.
Of all the mega cap stocks we track, only Intel $INTC remains on a “buy” signal using the Anti-Fibonacci Method.
