"However, I have noticed several times that by the time VTO gets to a sell signal all the normal indicators are saying buy, so in reality VTO can become a great swing strategy to catch the bottoms when nothing else sees them and then stay with the rally.
"

So true. I always had a "problem" with the VTO strategy, because it was too quick to buy in a strong downtrend and too quick to sell in an uptrend. If you can filter out the bad buys, and stay in trades that continue to work, it's really a winner!

Duma, care to show your MACDs of which you speak.


<<<<<<I also have a weekly chart where I use two different MACD's, one for selling and one for buying that works pretty good. I have adopted the strategy of being slow to sell, but faster to buy. This avoids a lot of whipsaws and gets one back in the market fast after a sharp dip.>>>>>>>
