    It appeared as the Dow began to shift in volume towards a down channel. Why was I incorrect in predicting this increasing red bar as a down channel PT. 3

    The dec sp 500 roll tomorrow. The Dow front month seems to still be december. Do I use the 2 min december Dow to lead the 5 minute march sp 500 for the next few days? How does this work?

    The reason I thought about making the first channel a PT. 3 was because it aligned very well with the moving average. I would not enter a PT. 3 trade without increasing volume, but I have noticed how well the moving average behaves when trying to identify a real PT.3. I realize that if I would...

    Was the number at 9:00 a FBO or do we readjust for a PT.3?

    I'm having difficulty using the STR/SQU tool. It does not seem to be working during points of change, and is consistantly either all black or all red throughout the day. The formula I'm using is ((YM - INDU) - Fair Value). Can someone show me how their STR/SQU looks? Or help me understand why it...

    I attached a picture of a series of volume bars. I had difficulty determining if the related price was bullish or bearish. Can anyone pick this out from looking just at the volume?

    What woudl have told me that this up channel was only a leaf in an overall down channel forest level view? I saw the gaussians as a bullish uptrend and increasing black volume on the BO made me get long. What should I have seen that would have told me that I was just fanning out the big picture...

    Ive been trying to research the DOM and T&S but havent found anything solid that gives me a good foundation of understanding about this tool. Where do you recommend looking? Ive searched the threads and read as many discussions as possible, but theres too many holes. Any help would be appreciated.

    Sorry, here is my chart. I had to redraw some of them in because it just got too clustered. But here is an example. Thanks for any help.

    I've been studying this system full time for nearly half of a year now. My charts have been fairly consistent to what Spyder has been posting as far as annotation is concerned. Here is my current issue. I notice that at one point this morning, I could draw 3 possible FOREST level down channels...

    What is a fractal envelope? I've been studying the Hershey method for months. Never heard this term. Do you mean channels within the forest? And if so, how does that answer my question? I appreciate your help.

    When you are wrong, what tells you that your anticipated pt 3 is not your pt. 3? I know that "when you are on the wrong side of the market, get out.", but is there a way to see that your anticipated pt. 3 is not what you thought it was soon enough to avoid a loss?

    Attached is an example of the question I asked earlier this morning. If we do see through these as "flaws" in the volume, similar to price flaws, why is that? Thanks for any help you can offer.

    When looking at a certain volume sequence (R2R, B2B), if there is an opposite color volume bar, how do we see through the bar as increasing or decreasing? For example, if I see decreasing black volume in a B2B with 2 red bars mixed into the decreasing B2B sequence, does this mean anything...

    Here is my chart including exact trades with real money for the day. After seeing a BO, I took that as a sign for change. Thus, I shorted a position after a BO of an UP channel. This essentially led to me selling the lowest point of a sell off and losing money immediately due to a rally after my...

    I thought I had a correct channel drawn. Price was traversing perfectly and then broke out. There was, however, no FTT. When we do not see an FTT during price movement, and it breaks our trendline, does this mean we just need to readjust the channel (had the wrong pt. 3)?
