Collin,

The "rabbit" refers to a subset of the MA component of the 56 point TA that I had dropped. To make a long story short, I began to use it as a stand alone system and really should never have dropped it from the 56 point TA. You are already familiar with this component. Specifically, I call it the variable MA with a rabbit. It's the 34 day SMA of the lows, the 89 day SMA of the highs and the 5 day EMA of the closes. An EMA is a form of weighted MAs. It puts more emphasis on recent prices. 5 days is a rather short period. Weighting a 5 day MA gives a very quick response to price movement, hence the term "rabbit".
Anyway, I have described the salient points of the variable MA with a rabbit and since I have reinstated it into the 56 point TA, scoring it as a subset of the MA component should be well understood by all seminar attendees. It is specifically geared toward timing and is very much in tune with the 89 day MA/MLR component.

The variable MA with a rabbit is great on a stand alone basis for short to intermediate term signals. Since the 56 point TA is geared toward the intermediate to long term, it makes complete sense to include it as part of the blender.
