    srusso1 - that whipsaw confirmation method

    srusso1 - that whipsaw confirmation method can be used for pretty much any indicator. For example, on a MACD cross, instead of selling the cross require a confirmation. Or use for moving average crossovers like the 13 EMA crossing over the 34 EMA, or 50/200 day etc, the confirmation method will filter out a good chunk of those false signals.  that said everything has some give and take - always waiting for confirmation will cause you to enter or exit late at less than idea prices waiting for that confirmation should price then confirm.

    anyway here's a post I made years ago showing this method on moving average crosses
