This indicator is uniquely designed to spot the most significant moves in the top stocks out there (and according to our backtesting it has historically nailed these moves with a stunning 90% accuracy). Now, most folks have been saying NVDA is way overbought or overpriced. They didn’t want to “buy at the top” 6 weeks ago… Or again 4 weeks ago… or again 2 weeks ago… And it’s not their fault! That’s what all the talking heads were saying too. But the Apex Indicator would have clearly shown that these were opportunities to buy. And, sure enough, Nvidia slammed through the recommended targets again and again.
