Best _Wilder’s Trend Reaction Strategy is a Metatrader indicator that is based on the J.W.Wilder’s corresponding work as we can find it at his own legendary book:
“NEW CONCEPTS IN TECHNICAL TRADING SYSTEMS”(1978) and on pages 71-86/SECTION VII.
This strategy is both an anti-trend system (named as REACTION_MODE) and a trend system (named as TREND_MODE). The REACTION_MODE reverses at each Buy point and most Sell points while the TREND_MODE usually exits the market at a Trailing Stop.
This indicator as also the original System automatically changes its Mode to Reaction/Trend, based on clear price action and market structure changes.
Obviously this Strategy can make money in all of the market conditions either on a non-directional/swing market or in a directional/trend market.
