I have a confession to make. Spydertrader's gaussian annotations drive me absolutely nuts. I can't stand them. Often I can't even begin to understand let alone replicate them. * So I am forced to figure it out for myself, in my own way, using his annotations as a guide to see if we end up...

Tightening your channels along the way - making them steeper or faster pace: This makes sense. The shallower channels are still in effect until their respective BOs. So do YOU then anticipate a sequence of FTTs of each channel in order of steepness? i.e. FTT of steep channel = P1...

Once again, that is your assumption. I'm only posting this to see if perhaps the thread starter can clarify if I have answered his request for clarification above re. the 20:30 ratio.

What? Seems he is not the one doing the assuming.

He means that if it took him 20 trades to get long it will likely take 30 trades to exit without adversely affecting price.

Well if by Labour you mean that NR has helped expand the largest house price bubble the world has ever seen, financing BTL mortgages at the expense of hard working families, putting their depositors money at risk with a grossly leveraged business model which relied on cheap money flowing from...

This example shows an outside bar. You "reset" and start a new tape.

I suggest you review Channels_for_BW_v2.2 specifically p85 on.

I posted the question after I read Gregor_S's very interesting post as it was already on my list of questions for Spydertrader. Spyder has explained many times how he will take a smoke break, go outside, make a few calls while keeping an eye on the screen - even if he has a position on (I...

I'm mainly looking for obvious walls when I am already anticipating change (in trend). When the DOM is translating you would expect price to move to size as a consequence of the trending, driven by market orders. Who'd put on a limit order if price is moving away?

4. How do you find the happy medium between hyper over-analysis and complete disinterest? (i.e. how do you get yourself into the state of optimal performance versus arousal.) Can you even verbalize what you do?

:D "Gee, you're from Enger-land - what currency do you have in Enger-land - it's the Deutschmark isn't it?" Actual question an American asked me on a chairlift in Whistler. (Edit: they also wondered why they didn't observe President's day in Canada.) :D

LMAO! Off course a true SCTer would be on twin tips - your design is a bit retro.

You are correct and that all makes sense. However you should keep track of the original channel RTL too as it may be a tape resume point (dominant traverse). In other words your steep channel breakout may only be a retrace of the more mellow channel - so make sure you track what is the...

Sure, he plays that image. There is a google video of a lecture he gave to some MBA students a couple of years ago. He goes into all this stuff. He uses a private jet, he likes it.

OK, these are general comments: Annotate the YM 2 min chart first. Match your gaussian annotations to your main channels first, add the traverses later. Mark the FTT volume bar. Drop the bands. No clutter. Make your 20 SMA blue, it makes it stand out and it's got to be blue. Blue...

God knows what I'm doing on this thread, but I do know he has a private jet which he singles out as one of the perks that makes his life different to that of the average millionaire. He likes Coke too.

Wow, you are thorough. An FTT does not have to be a P1, often it is the P3, as channels overlap. In the case where there is an apparent FTT followed by a BO, you MUST have increasing volume coincident with the old RTL being broken. If not, you suspect the gradient of your original channel...

Stochastics are very useful for anticipating breakouts from low volume dry up and keeping track of market sentiment.

Thanks for starting this thread, it's an excellent topic. I have a gizmo that I set up to show me DOM imbalances visually. I currently have it set up for ratios of 4:1 on the inner 3 levels and 40:1 for the inner pair. When both trigger I'm pretty confident it is a Wall and the other side is...
