Thanks, Nkhoi. Part 3 here... <img src=http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=2172864>
Action Items Log a row every time something changes, except from point 3 to FTT, when every bar should be logged Stop drawing laterals during dominant moves Sharpen tapes without disregarding the chubby tapes, or breaking taping continuity Do not enter before synch bar Make sure you know that you know before progressing from M to A Consider ways to incorporate WWT and WMCN into log Expand log vocabulary to include BO and IBGS Be cognizant of sequence carryover N.B. Am also going to start outline annotations of the 'faster fractal traverses', colour-coded blue and orange.
On an unrelated note, as I polish the coffin on a six-year career, the breathless AMABO clerk appears, inviting me to be the Medical Advisor to the London Symphony Orchestra...
The first log page has a lot of the aforementioned redundancy, as it took me longer than expected to get my bearings. After work tomorrow, I will thoroughly review all the journal info pertaining to carryovers.
Waiting for the FTT of the 2nd traverse, and just noticed that my chart would look completely different had I annotated a really long lateral...
I spent the morrning as an outpatient (stiches out and getting directions for "momitoring and checking back). I can't seem to get any implementation of some good work habits. This is just a consequence of such little real time effort in boot camp. If you are able, think about carry over and the level on which we are trading. Carry over. This means the left side of the first chart begins with the end of yesterday. I have to keep requesting this. You see it on charts posted in Iterative Refinement by others. We operate of three fractals: channels and traverses for advanced beginner. channels as level 3 and traverses are level 2. Your debrief is all annotated in hand writing with references to tapes. Basically, I am unable to do transference with you because I cannot communicate in words that you can sense because your mind is oriented to the Conventional Wisdom freakout and single element OODA REACTION. You are in reaction ALL of the time on a tape level. Bar 1 of a day is the last and forming bar in a channel and in a traverse. Both of these are shown on the chart by starting the left side of the chart in the prior day in a way that what is going on during the end of that day is there and as bar 1 forms, bar 1 is related to that prior evidence from the prior day. You do not "get it". You do not show it. You do not consider it. No more posting the start of a day WITHOUT including the carryover. when you file this under the tabe you have for this, it will read like repetition of prior posts over and over. You are locked into CW and the fear, anxiety and anger that is its primatur. I will be arbitratary and crude and non intellectual and give you rules from now on since I cannot get you to think in terms of the P, V relationship and annotating and logging and trading on a given level. Post the first slice BEFORE open and make the first slice show the basis of the channel you are drawing and carring over at least 12 bars into the new day. There will be NO bars of the new day since the slice is scannned and given a file name and posted BEFORE THE FIRST BAR OF THE DAY. Show also the last traverse of the last channel of the day. Draw it as far as you can into the new day at strive to show it for the speace that will in the future but not as yet be occupied by the first 12 bars of the new day (if it is logical so to do.) THE FIRST SLICE FROM NOW ON WILL BE THE END OF THE PRIOR DAY WITH PROJEXTIONS OF ANNOTATIONS STICKING INTO THE FUTURE WHICH HAS, AS YET, NOT HAPPENED. I worked very very hard to introduce you to carryover and I did a commentary on the end of a day very recently. You did not stick with the list under the transparent front cover of the 3 ring learning binder. Attached pleas find a lifted scan that shows the context of the ES market. Here you see the red channel and the pink traverse carried over on the chart The originator of the chart in Interative rfenement is also showing a gold "outer envelope" of the market. This contains channels as the means of determining the RTL and LTL of the gold envelope. This view should be relaxing and alow you to see what the four columns of the P, V preflight check mean. At the beginning you did trade Channels Ftt to Ftt because you were looking at the market. Then over the week endyou pulled the cover again on those 10 charts to trade the traverses of the channels. You succeeded. Today, you are in tape freakout and make no sense of things. That is because it is in real time and things are unfolding. And you have no sense of carry over. The preflight is incorrect and very incomplete. I have corrected the beginning of your first slice. I will put it up next.
