Always a Buy signal somewhere - easy ways to find the latest trend reversals

Trend reversals can be classic Buy signals. I wanted to let everyone know that there is a post up at our sister site TradingStockAlerts.com that explains several ways you can use their Premium Stock Screener to find trend reversals.

Not only does the post discuss finding the latest Trade-Radar reversal alerts and simple trend reversals (what we refer to as Trend Busters) but also ways of using Trend Performance in combination with a few other indicators.

The post is "Stock Market BUY Signals – Five ways to find bullish trend reversals" and I highly recommend it.

Read the post and go play with the screener. There are lots of variations you can apply to the basic setups discussed in the post. And remember, it's easy to get a free account that will give you access to the screener, let you save screener presets and save screener results to watch lists.
