My charts are from Tucson, AZ which is rancher oriented. We are mountain time most of the year. The market shifts its opening time in the winter when the sun on the range comes up later. Now my charts are two hours off from NYC. since the market is only open half a day in ranching...

Having a first recourse from long term memory that affords trading comes whether a person wants it or not. It is the nature of our minds to build the mind as a consequence of drills. You did these at various times in your life. In the pre calculator era people learned the multiplication...

The market was a little uncertain in terms of smart money traders at two times (before 8:00 and before 9:00). If you monitor those times from a specific viewpoint, you can "see" what "news" and a "lateral" looks like to smart money traders. Attached is the smart money trading (sentiment) for...

I didn't find any chop today; I only found trending.

Attached is a brief read for you. Unfortunately, What you do and what I do do not overlap. I never suggest that a person change paradigms. As a person learns to trade he makes decisions and acquires beliefs. This is a natural process and the decisions come from where the person is...

Thanks to both of you for giving me another opportunity to comment on that weekend in November. For context, please refer to the comments I made at the time. Gucci also reminded me of my responsibilities. I rarely make market calls as those who read my commentary know. When I do, their...

Before the VE there is an LTL. Then a VE results in an annotation whereby a parallel line is cloned from the original LTL. The cloned line is placed on the extreme of the VE bar (last VE if more than one happens). This creates a zone between the two parallel lines. So, David is correct to...

In the past there have been some discussions on things akin to pyramiding but more skilled in their trading oriented. AMT4SWA and powergirl come to mind. Your comments do upgrade the conversation greatly. Trading "inside" a position to continue to make money on each of several concurrent...

Dinner time...... That was fun.......

Here in this post we pick up on the peaking volume whereby price has NOT reached an annotated LTL. This is the FTT moment. we get one per trend and the FTT can be cancelled much later due to something we keep track of while we make money. We always keep making money by a Principle as old as...

Now that we have knocked off a 20 bar hold and reversed from long into a short, we can look at thefiner points of retraces and reversals. In the three moves of a pattern (B2B 2R 2B or R2R 2B 2R) there are dominant and non dominant portions. ALL retraces are non dominant. So a person trading...

dip time 18 is a sym B/R!!!!! 19 X R 20 SYM R/B to FTP B/R To X R 21 does four things and you go through the BO of the RTL on a REVERSAL the FTT was on 20 and you had pt 1 of the short. The trade........ The order of events gives you the fact that you are in a reversal...

This is the rinse and repeat post of 120 paragraph equivalent. X B 9, 10, 11 then do internal and fan. X B 13, 14, 15, then do internal and fan. 17 is mellow: sym to FBP to hitch to Stitch to hitch with Volume increase. We are fucking close to taking profits. try to fan but no...

We are 30 mins into a long hold and bar 7 and 8 form a sym B/R. this means we are in the second leg of the pattern, the nondom retrace from left to right. we have to fan the RTL to the bar 9 bottom (the bar after the internal TBY). The trend is "working"; we are holding on the retrace rather...

Bopping along. Bar 3 is X B. X B means translating black. HH's and Hl's as they say in PA. We hold. We have a VE too. Accelerate the RTL. We hold and notice we have to ACCELERATE the RTL of this pattern. We want to know that we know. More M1 and M2 is possible. The VE is a move 2...

I log as a countdown from 300 to 0 each five minute bar. Bar 2 ends as a FTP R/B. This means I logged a two bar yellow (which means it is an automated box) that represents a deductive case in the subset which wxcluded price translation in a trend. It good enough for me that I hav an...

This ia a thread take over and we all admit it from this point. Log and annotate as follows. I may put a chart up on my screen at some point. We wheel into the open and set the RTL and kill the gap. we have to trade both retraces and a one reversal when it comes. Both means two kinds of...

Lets roll. Bring up your Friday chart and lets run through the first 21 bars so you can see, feel enjoy andset in place how your mind learns to become differentiated. I will spread this out so I pass the test of 40 paragraphs per post. I wouldn't want to short change anyone. I have a...

As a trader grows, he naturally handles more and more information. Anyone who is just a potential trader, only assesses what he sees to guide him to better understandings of what is possible. Platforms are continually improving because the owners have to keep up with trader practices...
