Learning to read Price Action with P&F Charting

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

  1. Base on my understanding, P&F Charting is still a very subjective way of TA. Basically P&F Charting is getting out price and ignore the time, then make the price becomes just a up or down signal for every until. Then apply subjective TA analysis like trend line and resist level.

  6. Dear Dentist

    Are multicharts as good as Bulls eye. I have free access to multicharts through IB a/c. Thanks

  7. i am sure they are
    the data source ie,interactive brokers is the same
    the only thing that can differ is the method of calculation might be different/or the same.
    The only way to find out is to compare charts from bullseye and multicharts using the same set of data.same box sizes and same reversals
    there is a way round this..just use line chart and have a dot on the 1 sma
    also .a candle and use a dot as the sma
    look for those dot clusters for possible breakouts and place trendlines
    just the final bit of analysis could be with p/f as you have already extracted most of the information from the chart
    load up one trend.so a 4 hour should have one trend...if there is one
    see eurusd 240 posted yesterday

  8. dax 1 hour
    line chart with a dot on 1 sma/close
    i have loaded 2 trends
    the dots give you an idea where the breakout points are...you can focus on a particular area
    trends are the most important aspect of any chart,whether it be candle,bar p/f

  9. a trendline placed
    now we can study that trend on a lower timeframe
    all charts should be broken down into range,uptrend and downtrend using horizontal and subjective trendlines...first

    notice..we have not been near a p/f chart as yet

  10. now we can fool around with p/f on that downtrend
    we optimise the box and reversal'''visually

    we get 3 minor down moves in that downtrend
    remember..the latest trend is the most important
    then we can go and look for set ups to trade with
