    How do you determine trend direction?

    But wait don't tell me. With consummate insight I believe I have figured out that the funny straight lines were for instructional purposes only. In contrast, correctly drawn trend lines can be used in real time to tell you when to hold and when to exit or reverse. Incroyable. These are...

    How do you determine trend direction?

    Glad to hear that you're not into asses, even after 20 years. Even more glad that you managed to catch all three thingies that day using your odd little 1 minute chart with the helpful directional lines (exactly when did you draw them?) and crisp, tunable indicator. Truly a masterful and yes...
