My 'traverse B2B' is incorrect. Doh. It is the tape B2B which comes before the traverse B2B which occurs a few bars upstream at 12:25 (add 3 hours to my chart times). I think the blue RTL should be fanned so I'm leaving the R2R as is for now. lj

Thanks nkhoi. That was very helpful. There's an example of what you just said on Spyder's chart of 2-3-09. lj

1. Yah. That is where any legitimate P2 MUST be. 2. I said some time ago that I thought Gaussians were confirmatory and not predictive. You seem to be saying that Gaussians can point to the actual bar at which change occurs as opposed to being a case of following the falling dominos, e.g...

ES 5 min showing a completed standard downtraverse (fuchsia), a completed standard uptraverse (blue) with fanned RTL, a downchannel P3 at 15:00 and a down fftraverse to end the day. So the PFC says we should look to complete the downtraverse and the downchannel, whenever, and then start a new...

You're quite right nonlinear. Two out of thirteen isn't very many. lj

It's not a dilemma for me gucci. I would reverse. Others however might be less certain and my question is should they really be looking for an opportunity to wash in such a situation? The more likely end result would be not a wash but rather a freakout bailout which is exactly what one...

That's correct gucci. The market doesn't know me from Adam. So when I've incorrectly annotated what do I do? A wash or a reversal? lj

Yes but in the example from yesterday some folks were saying channel while others were saying traverse, as I've outlined in the quoted post. In so far as sequences, signals, bars and significance are concerned, if it were as easy as you construct it above, then there wouldn't be page after...

We all have different defintions of what 'predicting' is but using my definition, I really strive not to predict. You make some valid points gucci. If you really are at a P1, then it is a no-brainer to just hold. But what if it isn't a P1 (a P1 would be a point of change). Well simple...

Thank you romanus. I know that you are using a tapes/trendlines/Gaussian (t/t/G) methodology in your annotations but I am not at that level and so we do not, at times, speak the same 'language'. I see what you are saying, using your dialect, but I don't know what having the P2 'outside' means...

Many moons have passed since last I soiled these pages with drool and confusion. However it does bear noting that the market today completed a down Friday/down Monday troika and set a new 12 year low in doing so. The question is, "Is it safe?" and the answer for me is, "I don't know or care"...

Ehorn, If I'm understanding your color coding correctly, where thick-weight Gaussians refer to a standard (5 min ES) traverse, then the Gaussian peak at 11:55 marks the P2 and the Gaussian trough at 14:40 marks the P3 of a possible (in real time) standard traverse. Correct? If so is then...

In the past several weeks I have had a number of discussions with various thread members and in the interests of closing those ‘thought threads’ out, will, FWIW, post my take on what we’ve been chatting about. I mentioned in a post on 2-12 that Spyder’s most recent detailed chart...

Hi, Give me an hour and I'll PM you with the details, George. lj

Thanks ehorn. Now both you and guavaman are speaking about 'goats' and it's clear that you must have been speaking to some sort of goatherder while you were in NY. I think I know who that was and will therefore take your useful information and incorporate it into my, as always, 'developing'...

Interesting ehorn. 'Twould appear that you have done the old in-plane vertical translation to get around the AM gap. Like cnms2/charts you also position the 'origin' of the new day at or near the 4:15 PM close of the prior day (a so-called 'split' open). Is this divine inspiration or...

Thanks romanus for following up. I agree that going fully axiomatic on this whole endeavour is not necessary. I should have clarified what I said by including a domain restriction to that of the 5 min ES intermediate level trader but in truth, the whole exercise is more of a Hessian "Glass...

Nifty nkhoi. lj
