GoNoGo Charts Complete

The “Go/No-Go” terminology is borrowed from a type of pass/fail testing system often used by NASA as a launch status check. In the early stages of developing these tools, that metaphor had striking similarities to the disciplined process of investing.

Uncertainty in the market is unavoidable, but for every trade decision where capital is at risk, ensuring you have confirmation from multiple measurements that conditions are right gives you the highest probability of success.

GoNoGo Trend - Trend identification is arguably the most important concept in Technical Analysis. At the heart of GoNoGo is simple color-coded trend identification. This identification is based on a blend of Objective, widely proven, statistical indicators.

GoNoGo - Oscillator® - Momentum also goes hand in hand with trend identification. GoNoGo - Oscillator helps investors understand the velocity of price change, giving valuable information about the strength of a trend and the market’s conviction in it. Strong or increasing momentum provides confirmation of a trend while decelerating momentum gives the investor a leading indication of weakness and the potential for reversal.

GoNoGo Icons highlight low-risk opportunities for trend participation and alert investors to short-term countertrend corrections with intuitive icons directly in the price action.

GoNoGo - Squeeze® Studies have shown that momentum readings are not only useful for mean-reversion strategies but can also add insight within the trend. GoNoGo - Oscillator is calculated so that when inputs are in neutral territory, it rests at zero. Meaning, when enthusiasm wanes within a trending market, GoNoGo - Oscillator provides an objective point of support/resistance for momentum at the zero line.
