What are the factors which affect the quality of a trend ??




The price movement in a security is affected by interplay of trends across different timeframes. The trend quality and robustness of price movement is determined by the following factors in Triple Trend Oscillator.

             1.The position of trend oscillators(TO) across different time frames inter se.  What it means is that the position of TO  of the lower degree as compare to the position of TO of the higher degree.
       2.The direction of the TOs, whether  bullish or bearish and,
       3.The placement of TOs on the indicator, whether above or below the zero line.

For example the TOs placed above the  zero line and in bullish mode with the TO of lower timeframe placed above intermediate and long term TO will result in runaway prices. In such a scenario, an appropriate entry using the trigger line could result in extraordinary profits in a short time, for a long trade.

The converse is true if the TOs are placed below zero in the reverse alignment, for a short trade.

Hence the positioning of each TO plays an important role in establishing the trend quality ranging  from highly bullish to mild bullish and highly  bearish to mild bearish.
