Hi Spooz, Your question: When you saw the "highest volume of the day" on the 10:15 bar, were you thinking "hey, this might be a candidate Gaussian peak? In an FTT I am looking for the situation where the FTT bar cannot make the same volume as the previous bar + does not touch LTL. But I...

I agree with this. Ivo

Ehh. Well, I'd be happy to start following NQ if it helps with learning this method but I don't remember JH or Spyder mentioning this. regards, Ivo

Hi BB, I would like to be convinced but I am not. I am always suspicious and I was also expecting a pt3 down but could not find enough data elements to be short there. A flaw is still a flaw even after a gap in my opinion. Ivo

Hi BB, Sure but that does not anwer the question how we could know there was change right there. We were still having an up channel with all its characteristics. After all you are not just shorting "any move up" on a gap down. regards, Ivo

Hi Tums, Ok then. If it's just another helper then I wonder what are the other data elements in your dataset that made you know that change had occured? What was your action signal then? I appreciate your comments but I think if you look afterwards for "something" that does confirm...

I disagree with this. YES, my line is a VE line. So what? IMO I have drawn it 100% correct. Retreat from a VE LTL does not mean change. Yes, it COULD mean change but as volume was about 50% of the former bar I concluded "no change". I even checked YM for more clarification (checkout...

Thanks for your post Tums. Yes okay, I see the MA20 being touched. Did not have it in my graph yet because of the future rollover. However, that's just one data element isn't it? Doesn't a dataset consist of more elements? Even str/sq did not give a signal (just an opposite one a little...

moment 2 graph

Hi all, Another similar situation. moment 1: Price touched LTL and made a new high on the highest volume of the day so far (no FTT). PRV of the next bar is about 50% of the former bar so we think: FLAW. Is the 10:20 bar an FTT. Well in my opinion price did not try to touch LTL so the...

Hi, I agree but volume went to flaw levels without preceeding FTT... So logically I thought i could not be anything else but a flaw. regards, Ivo

At the moment of LTL bounce YM formed a double top FTT on my chart. I guess that was a clue as well. Anyway, there are so many clues all the time for continuation as well as change. So the flaw I thought I was seeing was actually a flaw in the new dominant direction as after the bounce this...

Hi Spooz, Well, you are right but I look first for the FTT in the current channel and then at the big picture. I mean, considering only your green channel if the 12:00 bar is a candidate FTT then the 11:55 would be a candidate FTT as well or not? And some more. First I zoom in, then if...

Okay then. Can't wait to learn then when to expect a Left Trend Line Bounce.... In this case it means exit on RTL but I'd rather not have lost those 3 points. regards, Ivo

chart 2

Hi, Just a question. Note the attached charts. Moment 1: we have an uptrend and just had VE. Everything fine. We got higher volume (+ higher price) than the previous peak so we can continue. It's very obvious at the moment we are having a flaw (hitch or dip) because volume based on PRV...

This happens automatically as time passes. Experience, routine and concentration. When you gain experience being on the right side becomes routine. Routine prevents arousal. In the meantime you know you always have to remain concentrated and stay out of prediction mode. After all not one...

What happens to me regularly is that I have a great start but exit too early. Volume was high and I should have zoomed out, held longer and the market told me that. Then a loser or a few washes because pace slows down. Then another good entry but subconsciously I want to make up for the...

Hi Jason, Great that you're getting it. One very important thing is to apply the stuff you learned on a lot of different market conditions. This often fools me especially when volume gets lower. So you need to build up some experience now that you're developing the skills. regards, Ivo

Hi Bundle, I am sorry for not replying sooner. What was "all day" for you was night for me. There's really not much to add. Your question in that particular post was "Is this really B2B?". I responded "Yes" and elaborated somewhat. Then you wrote you agree with every facet of my post...
