Parabolic SAR and Wilder

Video: 

The video discusses the definition and application of the parabolic SAR.  SAR stands for "stop and reverse".  It is a great indicator which serves to provide a trailing stop loss on trades in a strongly trending market; however, it fails to do as well in a sideways, or ranging market. 

It is important to know that the SAR should not be used as a stand alone indicator and should be coupled with other technical indicators to achieve its maximum potential.
