*Over the years, I have used Parabolic SAR a lot ... it is completely unique in it's intended use. I think it's maybe time to give this indicator another look.
I have added Parabolic SAR to this filter's "group of indicators" ... and have updated the original post of this thread. fwiw
----------
A fairly eclectic mix of Technical Indicators are included in this "filter / system" ... to be sure ... BUT...
I feel like this "old school" Parabolic SAR addition COULD be a nice tweak to the "filter / system" ... as it adds an additional visual to the chart set-up ... and provides both Trend information ... as well as possible Entry and Exit considerations.
It ALSO adds (fairly significantly) to the GOAL ... of making this MORE than a "filter" ...but, rather...an actual "trading system" ... for screening, analyizing and facilitating trade decisions.
I'll play around with it for a while and see how it works out and fits in ... "within the context of the other indicators" in the "filter / system" !

...the "Bulls" are putting up a brave fight to hold 1200 on the $SPX...
...that said...the ridiculously ridiculous turn in the Major Indices today...and make NO mistake...it WAS fuckin' ridiculous ...was just a last ditch effort !!! (imo)
Further ... the $SPX (even though miraculously closing slightly higher today) ... made a lower high and a lower low than yesterday... AND ...obviously the swing pivot high made on 4/15 has yet to be taken out.
I will be watching the 4/15 (~ 1215) pivot high ... as well as the H/L from today ... closely tomorrow to try and derive some clues.
Meanwhile ... I wait for the inevitable !!!

It's because the talking heads are pumping the overbought market, we are soooo overdue for a correction, bla, bla bla. This is why I think it will grind higher. At this stage my time frame is minutes, nothing held overnight.
