True.

In the Oct issue of Stocks and Commodities "on Using Volatility Bands", a trading system was established on these criteria:

1) The sysytem signals a buy when the closing prices are above the upper trading band three days in a row.

2) The system signals a buy when the currrent price closes above the upper band and the low price of the previous day was above the upper band or,

3) When the current low price is above the upper band and the closing price of the previous day was above the upper band.

The first three scenarios are responsible for most of the buy signals. The fourth scenario:

4) A buy is signaled when the closing price price rises significantly over a short period, that is, the current price closes above the upper band, and is 40% above the lowest price during the previous 11 days.
