/* Peterson Trading Method description
/* An up signal is formed when:
/* a) a stock make two Rally Days - kind of modified Cole Trading Method,
/* b) The Range Indicator (TRI) indicates there is a possible trend change from down to up and
/* c) exponential moving averages confirming trending up.
/* An down signal is formed when:
/* a) a stock make two Reaction Days - kind of modified Cole Trading Method,
/* b) The Range Indicator (TRI) indicates there is a possible trend change from up to down and
/* c) exponential moving averages confirming trending down */
