Ok time to get back to posting charts. Here is my view of today, after the fact due to travel. 2-23-09 ES
Bravo Spyder, great presentation! Thanks also to MikeyTrader and Ireland for your efforts to help organize a great day. It was a great time which went by too fast. It was really nice to meet up with the gang and I am looking forward to Vegas for another great session of food, drink and friends...
It was well worth the trip just to tell Spyder in person, thank you and how much I appreciate his unyielding efforts. Despite his modesty regarding his role in all our ability to tade confidently and profitably it really is all because of him. Thank you once again. The info and additional insights gained were great, but as he said, not the missing link, but a reiteration and clarification of what has been said many times in the journal. Thanks to everyone who made the trip and shared their thoughts. Special thanks again to Avi8 for his assistance in clearing up misunderstandings. It was clear to me that everyone who attended and participated in the discussion have the ability to trade profitably at least some part of the day. All that is needed is to develop the confidence to do so. I look forward to Sin City in November. The weather should be very nice that time of year. Back to business. he attached was annotated post NYC so I had the benefit of seeing Spyder's chart. At the time I questioned the 14:30 to 14:40 where we had an accelerated "faster fractal traverse" (aka "a goat"). DKM suggested the reason this was not a accelerated Pt3 up traverse making the 14:55 IBGS on increasing volume a true traverse level SOC (disregarding it's other merits of change ) was because although we did have tape break on 14:30 and on Spyder's chart a down tape to :35; we didn't have actual decreasing red volume (either as retrace or traverse) that would create the conditions for a traverse to develop later. This seems so simple, elegant and obvious it is no wonder I completely missed it . However, before I skip down the road having accepted this as truth, I thought I would get a second (or more) takes on the issue. Once again thanks to Spyder, Avi8 and everyone else. It was informative and great fun. Oh yes, another special shout out to Mikeytrader and Ireland. Awesome effort. Does that mean as the sole SJHM/IR representative in NV I have the honors in November :eek: ? Guava
Just got back to Blighty, and it's a welcome change from those bone-chilling winds... never thought I'd be praising London's weather. Thanks to Spyder, Mikey and Ireland for putting together a superb day, as enjoyable as it was informative. It was a privilege to meet such a great group of guys (and gals), hope to see you all again, and I wish everyone an unreasonably prosperous trading year. November's in the diary.
