UUP Weekly
UUP Daily
UUP 120 Minute, although it is also at times referred to as "Two-Hour"
Trends in the US Dollar are useful in anticipating trends and counter trends in other asset classes, such as stocks, gold and oil. Robert Prechter's current market thesis is that all markets are slipping into a Grand Super-cycle bear market and since all assets are priced in dollars, that the dollar is in the early stages of a massive multi-year rally. If so, the Weekly and to a lessor extent the Daily UUP Trend Models will catch most, if not all of it. The 120 minute model, which as you know is often referred to as a two-hour model, does a nice job of navigating around shorter-term trend changes.
