    Traps. All about traps. Longer the timeframe the bigger the trap.

    Trapped participants are fuel. Fuel is movement. Like a physical system whereby it takes n joules of chemical fuel to power up an exothermic reaction traps provide that fuel to initiate the reaction. Then there are all types of reactions--slow burning, fast burning, some that do little, some almost none.

    Exogenous events change the mixture either adding fuel or taking it away. You get the drift.

    A nice trap in the intermediate to long run would be a reverse at above the May high of 1370 in the Spoos, and of course the BIG triple top at 1458--food for thought.

    This is all just gobbledygook to frame the markets IN MY MIND so that it makes sense to ME. Good luck programming an algo for this. If I was smarter or perhaps not as lazy it would be possible but that is as far I'll take it---my own mind.

    Good luck to all.
