Learning to read Price Action with P&F Charting

Discussion in 'Strategy Building' started by HolyGrail, Mar 22, 2008.

  1. apple is a very bullish stock.so shorts do have to be carefully planned.the fed decision on wednesday obviously helped it along.so as you can see that any move above $400 was unsupported and in resistance.imho
    a different chart
    2 hourly data..see the triple top break above 388 area
    so price gets support in 388-400 area or retraces down to the trendline cluster at 375 area supp zone
    price could turn in those areas.so,as i said a difficult one to short now..imho

  6. i am not promoting tthe workshop.just thought if anybody was interested.i cannot make it on that day
    anyway,on a different note
    here is some stuff from jeremy about using hilo plot for eod data


    Point and Figure was originally and still is a charting method to plot trades as they happen. This means that Point and Figure charts were drawn using tick data. When tick data became more difficult to obtain, users of Point and Figure decided to use end-of-day daily data. In order to account for the days range, the high/low method was devised. But there are problems. With daily data you do not know whether the high or low came first, so either the high or the low are used, but never both. This causes quite a few anomolies which is why the close is a better field to use. Furthermore, instead of using daily high/low, it is better to draw a 60 minute, or 5 minute or even a 1 minute chart based on the close at the end of every time frame. At least then the path the price has taken during the day is tracked which is not the case with daily high/low charts.

  8. ok..so the anomoly/according to Duplessis
    say price is moving in a downtrend and it say,spikes upwards at the open,enough to print a 3 box reversal.then the chart will print a 3 box reversal as it was the first move.the stock/fx pair might have got sold off after the spike,but the hilo plot will show a potential reversal as it only plots the first move.this is what i think he means.he has got a valid point on that..imho

  9. In my opinion you can better spend your money on his book, I have seen a couple webinars from Jeremy and he doesn't give any additional information than he points out in his book.
