8/12 Forex

No new signals this morning. Note that outside the Person's chart, USD/JPY is showing a bull signal on the fast stochastic. It's a volatile indicator, but when it's right it tends to lead the others. But it also fires off many false signals.

The analysis uses the daily Person's Proprietary Signal, developed by John Person, and the monthly Person's Pivot, which he also developed.

These are black box signals -- the "proprietary" means that Mr. Person knows how they work under the hood, and I don't. But they have shown a fair degree of success in identifying good entry and exit points, and I find them useful.

On the glance, "pps open" means the price at the start of trading in the United States on the day the signal appeared.
