Again note the beautiful symmetry between the first and third legs of the maroon down Channel. They both begin with a shallower red down...
Another helpful bit of symmetry: in the grey lateral Channel, both of the dominant Traverses show exactly 2 VEs. So when we get the VE with a...
Notice the symmetry between legs of the olive up Channel. Each leg consists of one Traverse, and none of these 3 Traverses shows either a Flaw or...
Hi gucci, Tums' comment "20MA up" was referring to someting I neglected to include in my list, which is that the 20 period simple moving...
I'll attach Spydertrader's chart of 7-15-08 midday with the relevant bars for reference. 1. 12:10 EST (close of bar): I see that this bar...
Today's ES Thanks for the quiz, Tums. I'll wait until tomorrow to post my answers so that I can work on it some more tonight...
Thank you for steering me back in the right direction. I'm going to turn off the simulator and forget about "playing the hypotheticals" for...
I've been studying the 7-2-08 morning more closely to see how I might have traded it given my current level of understanding. I numbered the...
As Spydertrader has repeatedly asserted, it's important to be able to recognize your areas of weakness so that you can focus your efforts on...
Here's another day when an up Traverse early in the day wasn't followed by the formation of an up Channel. Again it seems that Volume levels gave...
Thanks, TIKITRADER. Your "Inside the Tapes" charts nicely demonstrate the fractal nature of the market. When you zoom in to the 1-minute...
I should have caught up with the thread before responding to your post. Your reply leads me to believe that I'm behind on the discussion. For...
I've been pondering this, too. I notice that the dominant black Volume between 10-11 EST never reached the level of the dominant red volume...
and one more (all times CST on both charts):
I chose a day at random other than to make sure Spydertrader posted his chart that day:
Thank you, Avi 8, for confirming another of my recent Aha's. I'm reposting your quote above for emphasis. I still keep Carryover Traverses and...
Well, I made a Monitoring blunder earlier when I neglected the lack of Flaw or VE in the late afternoon blue up Traverse. I have such blunders at...
15:55 Flaw completed in steeper purple Traverse, so we can again monitor for FTT:
Now that the sequences involved in the olive up Channel are complete, we can monitor for an FTT. Edit 15:38 EST: I neglected to account for...
Oops, I deleted the attachment. One more try: Edit: Argh :eek: . This time I somehow changed my green Channel P3 to pink. It should be...
