Farctals scribble As predicted my mind found distraction before getting in to the detial. I gotta submit to this time weights been scary past few weeks.
This is just a genral comment to all traders and potentiaql traders. Consider your platform copiously. It has to be of very high utility. If you ID with racoons, then use a nightime scenario. If you ID with humans use a daytime scenario. Ask yourself if you are trading rice. If you trade rice, then use candlesticks. If you trade anything else, do not use a rice type bar display. finally, the market is always correct. If you do not agree with the market, you are wrong. The "wrong detector" is always at work. It is tireless. Feelings are from the "Wrong detector". If the wrong detector provides me with feelings of anxiety, fear or anger, then I am not a full speed ahead mentally.
Another general comment to potential traders and traders. As a matter of fact, you choose a trading fractal. You use it on one or more of the many successful methods of trading or investing. You choose the markets you trade. In volume trading and in PA trading, trends last the same amount of events on any fractal. On your trading fractal, please understand how many events it takes to get a trend accomplished. since thei is true, then you only post snapshots as long as a cycle in trading. Two opposite trends will be showing.
My more recent trades today were: 39 (a correction from reading my bar numbers) 48 57 69 and holding short as of bar 71 @ 53 seconds.
This trading log presents a good work and task schedule. All trends are having ends at these bar numbers. you have a list of volume bar names to apply. Use the names in their sequence, when given permission by price. Fill in the names of each bar for volume (log it on brief log sheets) in the ensuing trend. we have worked for many days to put on separate white sheets of paper the 10 price elements. So far a bar cannot be drawn. the permission sheets will take the OP months to do. So far he is copying the pairs identically to the pairs on a published sheet all on lined paper which distorts everything. He looks at candle stick charts and never sees what he draws by copying.
The open is short. reversals after thebar 69 reversal include reversals on bars 71 and 76. I go flat before bar 78 so I only held the short for less than 2 bars. bar 78 advanced one peak as required. After that we had a lateral and there is a context of never having a T1 in this trend. Being on the correct side of the market takes precidence over making money. the reason is that making money takes care of itself.
My brain seems to need visuals for your words that's why I try to translate what you write into something my brain understands. "...never having a T1..." Do you have a graphic/chart showing this? Or at least bar numbers where between a P1 and P2 there was no T1? Then I will add it in my own charts.
Look at bar 76 or 77 going to be 78. P1 to P2. Use these dates: 31JAN13, 01FEB13, 05FEB13. respective prior reversals were on bars: 76 HVBO of primary and secondary 75 PP1 reversal 76 BM reversal visualizing a T1 being skipped by a single rule: "Advance one peak on bar 78 " will not be a challenge any more. The method is to know you know that you have an P1 and you have not been given permission by price to test for and get a "true" for the T1 criteria in the form of a function in binary Boolean algebra.
