Alexander Elder's Impulse System is a system for spotting trends in a stock by combining two criteria: inertia and power.
When the 2 indicators are ascending, the impulse is green, whereas when both are descending, the impulse is red. When the indicators are in opposition, the impulse is blue.
The colour of the Elder Impulse System can therefore be used to identify a trend, the start of a trend or the reversal of a trend.
Find detailed explanations from the autor of the Impulse System in his book "The NEw Trading for a Living" by Alexander Elder, published by Wiley Trading.
