Trading With Tick Index
NYSE Tick Index is a fascinating real-time market timing tool. Many people find it difficult to use. Some believes it is all hype. Personally, I use customized tick indices based on the NYSE Tick Index concept for daytrading. They are my most trusted trading tools and I have not seen any short term timing tool that can do a better job.
This is a collection of my writings on Tick Index and Its Applications.
It is an ongoing series – I will write more articles on Tick Index whenever I can come up with more ideas.
