    start to think the question: how to anticipate around oval area looking for long only? ( strong down then PB (up), then retrace (down) ), in other words, how to anticipate reversing up but not continuing down?

    luckylucy: Thanks a lot for your encouragement. My setup: PB long or short; if market is very strong, also enter at BO. You are right: I have the trading plan, but it is not my edge yet, in other words, i am learning to build up my execution skills using this trading plan ---- to build the...

    Niko: thanks a lot for thoughtful questions. I trust my plan. Then what do i mean by saying trusting the plan? • i trust all the setups have a positive expectancy. • the plan gives me the guidance and i need to be flexible to make decisions in RT, in other words, the plan is not...

    Niko: To clarify: Your first short entry was under the congestion bottom. The exit bar of your long broke below the congestion bottom (4 similar bottoms) for the first time. The short entry 2nd time broke below the bottom after a key resistance held after being tested, having a higher...

    Week 22 If i had traded like in the past several days following the entry of the plan (prob with late entries), i either would have entered pre-open or had bought the BO, i am trading differently today and i am guessing myself. That is ok (again i am saying ok again; but that is just myself)...

    I was writing notes by hand to assess demand and supply with good accuracy. But slow in making decisions. For the first, the exit is following my plan. The second short, the exit is not following my plan; i should exit when FT bar is a strong bull bar. Anyway, I expect myself to make mistakes.

    On second thought, i am not satisfied with the exit of the short. should exit earlier since no FT and i was expecting an immediate FT. For long, since it is late entry, i was managing the exit suppose i entered earlier based on plan. Exit was following the plan exactly.

    Pages 6-7 of section 15: when we see that the lateral movement beginning at L is stretching out to the right at M, we are able to decide in advance that any material rally, developing out of this sidewise movement at its right-hand extremely, would have the effect of pushing the price up...
