Yes, that was exactly the thinking I arrived at myself. The reason is intuitive. Tapes always are marked off the RTL. This means ascending lows for up-tapes, and descending highs for down-tapes. an outside bar formation yields ascending highs and descending lows, leaving the formation...

with all due respect spyder, did you read my reply to that post? The issue here is not code. It's organizing this mountain of information reporting back to all of you what I find. I'm not interested in hiding any discovery. It's clear I'm in the fact-finding stage right now. Once I am further...

Here's the second one. RT

I see two ways one might tape this chart. RoughTrader

Hi nkhoi, on page 24, didn't you comment that a pennant would need more than 2 bars to form a tape? second, this is the first I've heard of "split bars". There's two issues here: 1) we don't know, without a tick-by-tick replay whether the outside bar actually decomposed the way you...

Only thing that's not inflating is wages. Corporate America, in cahoots with congress, makes sure that the earnings surpluses never trickle down to the little guy. High inflation is not going to eradicate consumer debt. It will only make consumers MORE dependent on consumer lending to service...

What do you mean? RoughTrader

An example of a bar progression in which the tape is not immediately obvious. The examples go on and on.... RoughTrader

Hi Steve, Thanks for chiming in. I'm still at the beginning stages of understanding the method. That means, drawing tapes and channels. For about 2 weeks I have spent about an hour each day drawing tapes and channels for historical charts. In addition, I have been taping and channeling...

cnms2, I did not say I would extract from the pool of knowledge here and then shut my doors once I get what I need. Code is the baseline by which the technology is implemented. It is not the single representation of core ideas and algorithms. My coding style is unique to myself and...

Sorry to disappoint you. God forbid if you were to undertake a project, you would have to think for yourself and write your own code. RoughTrader

From what I've gleaned so far, it looks doable. Definitely auto-charting the tapes and channels is doable. I just need to clarify that all the rules for the cases I am looking at are correct. RoughTrader

I will not open any code I write, but if anyone inquires about specific rules / methods, I will point them in the right direction. RoughTrader

Hi Tums, There are approximately 1000 pages in the journal. Instead of having to wade through hours, even days needlessly, if you have some idea where to look, could you please point me in the right direction? My questions are simple, I'm only asking for simple answers.... RoughTrader

I thought I read something about pennants in the document, I'll have a closer look. Thanks spyder. RoughTrader

Without sounding offensive, why do I get the feeling I am unable to get direct answers in this thread? RoughTrader

I have the document and have been scrutinizing in particular the pages you mention. Page 88 is the first reference for the formation I'm talking about. It states: "c. Bar 2 has a lower high and same low as bar 1 (fbp) - Use bar 1 for the left side of the tape." The document does not...

Thanks, but this doesn't answer my question. RoughTrader

I think I have answered some of my own previous questions, but the more I think about the rules, the more I question "what makes a tape". My latest concern is the a two-bar tape. Specifically, for the case where H2 = H1 and L2 > L1 (or H2 < H1 and L2 = L1), we don't really have a "momentum"...

speaking of e-minis, does volume appear on the december contracts starting tomorrow, 9/12/2007? I can never get these rollover dates right.... RoughTrader
