Our Green & Red bars are our swing trading signals that define bullish or bearish trends. What it means to have a swing trading signal is these green and red bar indicators are meant to capture the medium to longer term trends. They are designed to forgo any shakeouts by not giving you a signal weak signal or a signal that is too early. This helps us from not getting shaken out of a position when we have volatility in an asset - something that crypto has a LOT of (Volatility).
You can see in this example below the trend went green, and even though price action temporarily had some weakness here & there on the way up, the Green Trend Bars stayed green & would have kept you in the BTC move from $11,300 all the way up to $41,000 on the daily chart.
You can see the red trend bars trending down but having pockets of strength here & there that made the price action temporarily go up before it continued its trend to the downside. The Red Trend Bars would have kept you in your short, or better yet kept you from entering a long position many times which would have all been fake-outs to the upside that would have ended in bad losses! This is what we mean when we say that the trend bars do a great job in keeping you from getting "shaken out" by staying course of only the Macro Trend.
Performance: In the 2020 Bitcoin Bull market the Alpha Trend bars went from Bearish red to Bullish green @ $11,300. Priced climbed all the way to $33,000 before turning Bearish Red again.
Next it turned Bullish green again @ $38,000 that carried you up to the near top of the bull market @$58,500.
Once Bitcoin peaked at $65,000 the Alpha Trend Bars turned Bearish red @ $63,000 that kept you out of any long positions while Bitcoin fell all the way down to $28,800. Imagine how well you could have done in the Bull Market if you had the Alpha Trend.
