  3. a chart of eurusd
    sentiment is bad for the euro.but we could be in a bounce zone
    the bearish support line accoding to dr zieg the p/f technician,is drawn from the highest "X " in a column of "X" s.the "x" should be exposed.ie not covered by any X or O "s
    so i have drawn 2 bearish support lines /green.one is about hit already.the lower should hit at parity and coincide with the downside vertical counts
    daily data..100 pips box size by 3 reversal.hilo plot
    so if this is right,then we might be in a major support area

  4. tolan
    the eod data can be close or hilo
    same with hourly /10/1 min
    the software can plot either the close reading only.or hilo
    i look at both..i am trying to find which chart for that data series can give me some form of understanding to what is happening with the price action.
    there is overlap when looking at p/f charts,when changing box sizes with different time inputs.so you just learn to ignore the ones that tell you nothing new
    i hope this explains it

  5. tolan.i forgot to add something.the data comes in and has 4 values:
    open
    high
    low
    close
    and volume
    the software will either read the hilo data and plot the chart or it will read the close only and plot the chart.it does not matter if it is eod,hourly,10 min or 1 min
    the box size is input,with the reversal size.
    hence you will see charts with very long columns or very short ones.then you have to go to work to get them to what you think is the correct size

  8. euro watching.1.1880 was the support area.good old dr.zieg !!
    eurusd.hourly.approx 4 months of chart data
    33 pips by 3.hilo plot
    lets see what happens between the green lines.the lower trendline/green has been drawn.in p/f you can draw a trendline if you think a top/bottom has been made.plenty of overhead resistance.the low pole just about been taken out.so there could be some strength....short term
