Based on Wyckoff, TriggerPoint's software helps individuals identify market trends through Springs and Upthrusts, and trade faster than before using its indicators as a guide.  For the first time, all traders have access to a software program to understand how the market is moving, and can get in and out of trading at their convenience.  While the indicators are based on a proven formula, the need to study numerous types of technical analysis is removed.   The goal is to help traders make better and easier trading decisions simply by letting the company's proprietary color-coded indicators and trend lines do the work.
