Professional traders

Several currency strategists and traders specialize in applying TD Sequential and other TD indicators to the currency markets.

One is Jason Perl, Global Head of the Fixed Income, Rates and Currency Technical Strategy Group at UBS Investment Bank. He has been using these studies for the past 10 years –– identifying, among other events, the USD/JPY top in 1998, the U.S. bond highs in June 2003 and March 2004, the April 2004 Nikkei high and the May 2004 EUR/USD low, using TD Sequential.
