New Ideas in Technical Analysis: The Pocket Pivot Buy Point

The pocket pivot buy point enables the investor to buy leading stocks early in the base just before the stock breaks out. The pocket pivot also provides a tool for buying leading stocks as they progress higher within uptrends, extended from a prior base or price consolidation, or if the original breakout buy point is missed.
