[USER=57299]@mcgrath111[/USER] If I could take the liberty to show you my chart of NAB. I'm not questioning why you initially purchased NAB & I'm not commenting whether further purchases are good or bad. I just want you to see it from my perspective.


Yellow Ribbon

Look at the little yellow ribbon at the bottom of the chart.


What does that yellow ribbon mean

That's a ROC indicator (ROC = Rate Of Change) a momentum indicator. Each time the yellow ribbon activates it means the momentum is dropping. It means the ROC of the last 10 weeks is lower than 0%.


In a nutshell

Other investors/traders don't share your view. (more sellers than buyers)


Ribbon Length 

The length of the ribbon indicates the length of time the momentum continues to drop. The chart is a sea of yellow & this may indicate my caution - at least it will give you my take on NAB.


Why is my ROC ribbon yellow

If a traffic light turns yellow we prepare to stop. If I own the share my strategy turns on a searchlight to highlight the fact.


I'm a wimp

In my 'Dump it here thread' I've spoken about the virtues of being a wimp. I'm first to admit I'm a Wimp.
