Service Cost
The indicator can be rented for $19 USD (one month) or purchased for $89 USD. To be fair, the purchase price is a little high for a simple indicator, and many others can be purchased for as little as $30. More than 1,000 traders have downloaded the demo version of this product, which would be a good idea before buying.
Conclusion
Momentum Solo informs traders of momentum strength and can be used with multiple timeframes and any instrument. It has received four 5-star ratings and a few positive reviews.
For example:
“Claus was very courteous, responsive, and professional after I informed him the alert function was not working properly.” -vtcpa04
“Great product and great seller, really helpful indicator.” -Pip Collecter
It’s a little worrisome to see that there was a technical problem with the alerts, but this has since been fixed in version 16.3 back in 2017. The product is a little pricey, but traders can still rent it at a lower rate. Like any other indicator, risk-management needs to be practiced, and we would recommend following the author’s advice to avoid trading before certain news hits the market and etc. for the best results.
