The closing values required for the continuation of the uptrend have remained static. The triggers for a downtrend have moved upward and are very near to the last closing prices. Readers of this blog may please note that any momentum indicator may generate  many whipsaws in the markets wherein the long slow moving rallies may take place. Accordingly, the Ultimate Momentum Signal is also susceptible to whipsaws if the present condition continues. However, the third method of entry may give better returns at such times.
