    Thanks

    Page 49 plus minus days mark describes a strategy using the plus minus concept relative to 30 days prior goes on to page 50 I think would need to scan many markets to get the trade to line up to take as described

    Oh, you meant in the book. I thought you referring maybe to this thread. Yeah that is something different then that what I was referring to. He was saying something about looking at the score 30 days before as an indication of what might happen today. Honestly I have never used that before or found much value with that.

    I haven't posted number line confirmations in a while: we currently have confirms in ES, CL and GC and we recently re-set in Bonds and Natty.

    Also, regarding Copper, the yearly A down is right here at the 3.05 level. But....we are confirming an early cycle monthly A down and are in a late cycle QTR A down. But for long term value players, the 3.05 level is probably a good get.

  6. Hello Mav,

    I’ve been looking at and thinking about my numberlines today and the fact that I currently base my daily A up/down confirmations on the same time period as my opening range. (I know Fisher uses ½ the OR time period.)

    Question I’m hoping you can answer here or perhaps in a PM if you prefer: For daily A up/down confirmations, do you use the same time period as your opening range (say 5 minutes) or the Fisher method?

    You have never been asked this question or discussed your preference regarding your daily A level confirmations in the thread and I would value your input. (You have previously posted that you base your monthly opening range on the first trading day of the month and the monthly A up/down confirmations is also the entire day.)

    Thank you sir.

  8. Well I didn't see that coming : )

    You know that sparked a memory for me so I did some digging and found something of interest in chapter 1 (A & C Lines) page 2 of 9, from the internet ebook Mav the Mentor. A portion of which reads:

    "If Gold is making an A up, it doesn't need to stay above the A up for half the OR time, I would like to see it there at the end of the time period. "

    Perhaps that's it for your daily's? Regardless of time above or below the A level: If any five minute bar closes above the A Up or Down, it's confirmed.

    Is that close? Gimme a hint here : )

    I actually use different time confirmations on different products and I use different time confirmations regarding number line purposes and trading purposes. So there is no cut and dry answer. I guess I can ask, are you referring to time frame for purposes of scoring number lines or for actual intra-day trading.
