Firstly, if u have no idea how to use SAR & want to know more, u may wanna check out @Meta Moo post on SAR
:
I'm just going to move to the practical usage of SAR
using $SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY.US)$. U gotta keep up with my pace if u don't want to get sallow by the bearish 🐻 market
in 2022. (SAR is also new to me
)
1. Using SAR to spot direction and potential reversals
P1:
Select SAR indicator which should be there by default
.

P2.1:
In P2.1, u will see the circled dot along the red dotted line, a weird colour which is slightly light green / White dot.

In P2.1, the start of the slightly light green / White dot along the red dotted line show a potential reversals & a downtrend may happen. A few days later as shown in P2.1, it's indeed a downtrend
.
P2.2:

P2.2 shows the light green / White dot along the green dotted line = a potential reversals & a uptrend may happen.
2. Using SAR with MACD
P3.1:
P3.1:

As u can see in P3.1,
light green / White dot along the red dotted line + MACD orange line below blue line = A potential reversals & a downtrend may happen.
light green / White dot along the red dotted line + MACD orange line below blue line = A potential reversals & a downtrend may happen.
P3.2:
Vi-versa![]()
Vi-versa

In P3.2,
Light green / White dot along the green dotted line + MACD orange line above blue line = A potential reversals & a uptrend may happen.
Light green / White dot along the green dotted line + MACD orange line above blue line = A potential reversals & a uptrend may happen.
3. Using SAR with RSI
P4.1:
P4.1:

Light green / White dot along the red dotted line + RSI < 50 = A potential reversals & a downtrend may happen.
P4.2:
Vi-versa![]()
Vi-versa

Light green / White dot along the green dotted line + RSI > 50 = A potential reversals & a uptrend may happen.
Why 50?
Because it is the medium (50%)

Oh
, by the way... @Meta Moo used 3 RSI lines as a patterns observation & it's quite interesting. U may wanna check it out ![]()

4. Using SAR with RSI+MACD
Last but not least,
P5.1:

P5.1:

Lastest chart data of $SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY.US)$ on 4/7/2022 in P5s,
Light green / White dot along the green dotted line + RSI < 50 = huh
, ahlehleh?
Light green / White dot along the green dotted line + MACD orange line above blue line = A potential reversals & a uptrend may happen.
Wth 🤦♂️ is happening
?
Light green / White dot along the green dotted line + RSI < 50 = huh
Light green / White dot along the green dotted line + MACD orange line above blue line = A potential reversals & a uptrend may happen.

Let's further look at P5.2 below:

P5.2:

Light green / White dot along the green dotted line + RSI < 50 = huh
...
?
Light green / White dot along the green dotted line + MACD orange line above blue line = A potential reversals & a uptrend may happen.
So, my reasons & conclusion is:
It may be a bull trap = short-term bullish.
1. RSI < 50
2. MACD is still in the negative values zone although MACD orange line above blue line

I'm NOT trying to...

...you. I'm just stating out the matter of facts & my point of views, that's all
= Peace

5. Summary on SAR

NOTE: ALL INDICATORS ARE JUST ONLY A GUIDELINE FOR A TREND PATTERNS & U SHOULD NOT BE OVERLY DEPENDENT ON IT. IT'S USUALLY A BETTER USAGE FOR SHORT-TERM TRADERS / SHORT-TERM INVESTORS = LONG-TERM INVESTORS SELDOM USE INDICATORS.
