    Intraday, today's IBGS' sequence looks different than June 9th's ... Also, the June 8-9 tape's LTL held, and today's volume was lower on SPY and SPX.

    Hi, ivob, nice chart. The increasing red volume on the bar in the blue up channel right before the orange ftt would have shaken me out. What was your thinking process at the time? Was it the context? Did the lateral movement (highlighted yellow )play any role here? Thanks.

  8. Okay, I am trying to figure out exactly what went wrong with my analysis on today's 9:55 ES bar. Perhaps others can shed some light on it . All bars times are the close of bar. My thought process was as follows:

    The 9:50 bar ES showed DRV in a Pt3 down channel. The 9:50 YM bar showed an IBGS w/ the added bonus of a close near its extreme and greater Volume, therefore no flaw.

    Guava enters long at close of 9:50 ES bar.

    Then the 9:55 bar opens and moves higher. Great!. The YM also moves higher, but initially on DBV. At this point I thought we were in a retrace on both the ES and YM, but at the close of the 9:55 ES bar, we had a HH w/ Price inside the previous bars range. Consequently, this ain't no retrace, its Lateral Movement.

    Coupled with the info on the YM, I reversed short because of the situation described on the ES as well as the new information on the YM (9:56 bar) which was showing a OB w/ IRV.

    Only at the close of the YM 9:56 bar did it become clear that this OB bar w/ IRV and Price closing inside the range of the previous bar was actually not a signal for change.

    But I had to make a decision at 9:55. What did I do so very wrong there?

    So you are saying at 0956, the situation CHANGED from what you anticipated at 0955?
