I like using the Stochastic-Momentum indicator in certain instances because
it can often give you a much clearer picture than just using a Stochastic indicator.
Some refer to this indicator as the SMI and they use the same trading rules
as they use with the Stochastic Oscillator.
Today, we will apply the Stochastic-Momentum indicator on a Weekly chart
of the 30 year bond yields.
To use it on a weekly TYX chart, we like to use the following settings:
- The %K set at 14,9,9 ... and the %D at 3.
As you can see, in spite of all the Bernanke/Fed interference with interest
rates, the Stochastic-Momentum indicator can give very helpful trending information
for investors. As you can see below, for the past two years, the Stochastic-Momentum
indicator has done a very admiral job on the TYX.
P.S. If you don't already have access to our paid subscriber updates, consider
taking advantage of the 3 dozen+ charts and analyses that we post every day.
Have a great weekend and we will see you on Monday.
