Why do people use Volume, Range and Tic charts?

what's most telling, is 4 years later, who is still here and who is gone. most of those posters are LONG gone......

i applaud p.logic and all others who have the passion and wherewithal to stick it out in this game! regardless of our philosophical differences, my hats off to the survivors.

I use 3 volume settings,
233, 1597, 28657.

These are Fibonacci primes

 

this was posted by someone in another thread -- ES 8,000 contracts CVB.

by the same person, ES 10,000 contracts CVB.

People use Constant Volume Bar charts or the exact same reason people use specific time based charts.

Tics = Transactions not contracts. (This is elementary and you expect people to believe you actually trade?)

Prime numbers have to do with fractals, something else you have no knowledge of . . . like trading.

If you you spend some time expanding your brain instead of your social calendar you would have a little credibility.

 

Cool . . . variety is the spice of life.

 

you don't need to know that if you are only papertrading.

Hi,

I know Prof is extremely busy so I thought I would post this on this thread in the hopes that someone that follows his ideas could comment on my chart. Cheers

Please have a look at the chart below and see if I labeled it correctly. Basically I just used my price oscillator and every time the osc went either +.50 or .50 (black lines are the .50 lines and the red line is the centre line) I looked at price to see if it was making either a HH, HL, LL or LH. If price didn't make a HH, HL, LL or LH with the osc above or below the .50 zones then I didn't mark these points on the chart as what I am thinking is for the actual Primary trends one needs to only mark HH, HL, LL, or LH points when the osc is above or below the .50 zone.

From this chart I basically have the NQ in Primary Bear at the start up until where I have it go into Primary Bull as indicated on the chart...is this correct ?

I would imagine the best thing to do would be to look for only shorts when in the chart is in Primary Bear and only longs when in Primary Bull ?

Cheers

just checking your knowledge.

so im guessing this has something to do with fractal geometry?

that trail is well worn without very many positive results, wonder why??
