    Do you believe you can predict how far a market will go within a given time frame?

    No, that is way off base. There are group of you here in ET that are sort of like grakles heading south forthe winter, you don't leave an area until you've eaten all the fallen corn left in the field after harvest. Scavengers late to the party....

    Spotting a trend

    To deal with modelling and design, it is best to use logic and consistant heurisitcs. You start of defing a boundary is senseless. The relation of excessive points in 1. was a cardinal error. To trade to make money you need to do regional analysis. Granted a line determine a boundary but...

    Spotting a trend

    See attached for a first look at annotating using geometry and linear relationships. It is all easily codable and very productive for making money continually. NB There is a typo on the illustration "satest" should be "fastest". sorry.

    Do you believe you can predict how far a market will go within a given time frame?

    It is possible that the OP has not had a lot of experience making money. A perosn may be concerned with predicting and it conscequences up to a certain point. Another way of looking at the future is to just note what is coming on the fhorizon and use the price and time as milestones that...

    Most resourses use 65 and, if it is a variable use 45 to stand for two months. 65 stands for a 1/4 of a trading year. Getting a universe is based on 5 moves in 6 months. Trading on volume while position trading @ 10 % a cycle optimizes at 100 turns a year. To calculate the doublings of...

    Thank you for your post which responds to my suggestion. I agree with you that it is very important for you to see and understand the P, V relationship. It is foundational. I learned it by reading the first pages of the 4th Ed of Magee in 1957. You had inferred that you were having...

    Obviously we get several dividends in this reponse to the sincer request for help. Backtesting is one of them. By having a team of competent backtesters on the job, the OP gets to learn about how well he has done backtesting. we will use two formations. Lo came up with 10 to test and...

    the drill is to trade reversals only for two weeks. the entry is at the beginning of the reversal and the exit is at the beginning of the next retrace. This is called "trading the long diagonal" of the parallelogram from the beginning but only up to a certain point in the parallelogram...

    This was a fun challenge to handle. The guy has 5,000 hours in and is relatively rich. I'm only posting here because of one sentence he posted. It had nothing to do with his apparent dilema. So I had to change his dilema to something that would trick him away from all his knowledge and...

    Each trader sees real-time bar charts that are unique to them

    FT111 does have problems he isn't recognizing. All display charts can be synched by the nested fractal relationships that originates with the granularity of a market. By using the non stationarity concept (with respect to optimizing trend segment profit taking) it becomes fairly obvious...

    thanks for putting the chart up. here are the three moves that established the Bull retrace using the daily chart. It begins on point 2 of the depression parallelogram. I used three line weights to depict the build up of the fractals that lead to the boldest RTL which is the Bull...

    For those who are interested in how markets move in nested patterns, use the posted chart to try to buld the parallelogram that represents the Bull retrace. It would be good to use something that is traded because you then have the two variables of the market to help you construct the trading...
