Most trading systems and indicators are reactive and not proactive. Because Tom DeMark was reared in the institutional side of the market, it was imperative his analysis be designed to anticipate market tops and bottoms. Not only will the design and application of the indicators be discussed but also the psychology as to why they work the way they do.
