The Primary Trend section analyzes the top weighted stocks in the QQQQ and SMH etf's according to their primary trends.  A bullish, neutral or bearish percentage of these top weighted stocks is displayed for a quick read on the stock's bias.  If the overall reading is bullish Myst recommends traders consider call options and if bearish then traders should consider put options.

One of the most important rules of trading is to trade with the trend.  The 3 indicators below are very useful for determining the major or primary trend and keeping you from getting "whipsawed" out of your positions.  A Primary Trend reversal will occur when the following 3 conditions are all met:

1)  An DMI cross occurs. 
2)  Price crosses the 20 day ema.
3)  An Aroon cross occurs.

Go long or stay long when the primary trend is bullish, and short or stay in cash when the primary trend is bearish. ~Myst~
