So, the last 2 black bars made up a FBP, which broke out to the upside on increasing volume. And, it sure looks like a point 3 too. Now, according to the instructions I received, one would enter long roughly 1474. Next bar opens, it's on inc PRV but you gotta wait a couple ticks to see what...

No apologies necessary. You are one of a handful of people who have ALWAYs been pleasant and helpful. There were three different guidelines (or rules if you wish) that were suggested to me. One of those was avoid the middle of the range. When that was suggested, it immediately made sense...

????????????????? I've stated, againa and again and again, that I have no problem seeing this stuff end of day. Seeing it as it shapes up is something altogether different. Just because you made a suggestion the other day has NOTHING to do with what is being chatted about here. And lets...

Pro, I know you posted this with the best of intentions, but you aren't getting it either. I'm not talking middle of day (as in lunch) I'm talking middle of range. Over the past month, I've contacted a number of people who seemed to be doing well. I was shocked with the replies. It was just...

You're not even remotely getting what I'm saying. I was given three, specific, guidellines to help me in my trading. In this case, one of those guidelines applied. And this person, unlike you, who merely criticise, attempted to help me. This is no more arbitrary than any other rule. This...

For everyone's convenience, I have collected the five September posts into a word document. The only mention of the word "gaussian" is right at the beginning and is highlighted. If you read the posts, you will find absolutely NOTHING is said about the relationship between gaussians and lateral...

I was merely following the instructions or rather suggestion that someone following the thread gave me. This person has stated they are consistantly making money and found by doing this and avoiding low volume periods, and taking trades near the high or low of the day worked "much better".

Spyder, More to the point: no where did you say NOT to look at Gaussian peaks. You do keep moving the goal post. There ARE contradictions in what I'm seeing. If I see continuation AND change, that's a contradiction. I'm not blaming anyone or anything. I realize I'm the one creating the...

I was told (not by Spyder) to avoid pt3 trades in the middle of the day's range. After the better part of a year, and well over a thousand pages of thread, and and and; I admit my ability to hold in my mind what I need to is not working out too well. My perceptual filters seem hell bent on...

Dear Spyder, Actually, I did expect that this was pt2, and thus the next bar didn’t bother me. The break of the pennant (which you drew in) and/or the break of the up tape I saw on increasing prv. I consciously made the decision to stay long because the Gaussian was still dec red. Let...

Dear Spyder, I thank you very very much for this. I have some honest comments and questions which will be brief I promise. I beg that you watch for my reply in about an hour or so, I left lunch go waaay too long and now am paying by way of major migraine. Again, Thank you more than you...

I was attempting to use the tool set you just outlined. Spyder instructed to use the YM, and I'm feeling a bit torn, as I don't see the YM helping me because I don't see things consistantly there ( or anywhere). Actually, I don't use the DOM either, because it just looks like a bunch of...

I anticapated a pt3 because that's what comes after an FTT. So, you raise a great point. Do I anticapate a pt3 or a new dom traverse? At different places in the thread both of these, (as best I can recall) have been suggested.

For me it's not about being selective, it's about seeing mixed signals. When I bring the kind of logic you're using into my mindset, it all goes to hell in a hand basket. This piece of data says change, this piece says continuation, oops, the first piece is now continuation, etc etc.

My apologies, I meant to say "decreasing" volume, which would be what one expects after an FTT. Thus, the 13:45 bar was the FTT, decreasing volume back to RTL and potential pt2 at high of that bar. 13:50 decreasing red, anticapating going to a pt3. Now, it's obvious that those two bars...

Thank you for your comments. I commend you if you are able to think things through this way. For me, what you do is so subjective that it hinders rather than helps. In the past I used to try and think this way and it caused me to never take a trade. I got into over analysis. I hope this isn't a...

Next trade.... The arrow points at my long entry @ 1503.00. Earlier in that bar I didn't call out an FTT because volume was so low that according to our rule of thumb it should have been a flaw. Once the whole bar retraced I labeled the FTT. I chose to go long at this point, recognizing...

The arrow on the attached chart is my entry. I was looking for a way to get onboard the downtrend as I wasn’t able to trade earlier. The lime green channel was clearly a non-dom traverse. The bar before the arrow was the FTT of the lime green channel. Price (on the arrow bar) broke the low of...

PM me and I'll help you sort it out. Sounds like you don't have it set up right.
