    Sorry Tums, Haven't checked back to this thread for a while. Here is my SS. IMO it doesn't display the info in a clear and concise manner. I have to study it to decipher its readings. Other than switching to another provider not much to do me thinks.

    Pepe, You are correct that I am looking for a visual demonstration of how the SS and the tic chart work in concert. To date I just don't see any correlation. I do use the SS as you described, but find it useful only in the vaguest and inconsistent way. I am hoping there will be additional...

    Pepe, Per usual I have found your posts informative and insightful. In reference to your previous post regarding the S/S and the tic chart working together, do you by chance have any video examples of how this actually works? I have rearranged my workspace to group these two tools...

    Pepe, This doesn't sound right to me. It is my understanding that the whole point of learning this method is so one will know what the market is saying. As one's refinement of the methods improves one will "know" at finer and finer resolutions what the market is saying. Is an "indication"...

    Ivo, I'm with you. From 12:00 to 12:40 my volume levels dropped from the high at 12:00 of 5900 contracts to 1550 at 12:05 then 756, 1181,872,1091,10921032 and finally 753 at 12:40. Although I could recognize the 12:00 bar as an FTT (using the channel with PT1 @ 9:35, PT2 @ 10:45, PT3 @...

    Wondering how others handled the following scenario: 10:50 (approx) short entry and held until 11:20 when the price and vol. sequences indicated a reversal. 11:20 reversed long. 11:25 there is close just above RTL (Pt1 = 10:40, Pt2 10:45, Pt3 10:45). 11:25 volume bar has close...

    FWIW, after having consistent success at the forest level, I am now trying to refine my abilities to the tree level. This has caused some difficulties. Although I do not strictly follow my P&L I do have a loose idea where I stand which is how I quantified the loss of 7 pts in my earlier post.

    Bearbelly, I appreciate the thought, but for me, that doesn't really advance the ball. To learn how to deal with market uncertainty I must deal with it, not hide from it. As difficult as this is at times, it is how I choose to learn. The unhealthy side effect of this mindset is the...

    Ivob, In my experience it is not low volume that snakes me as much a lateral movement. If volume dries up I know to be careful or simply withdraw. However, when volume and volatility remain it is the lateral movements and the percieved volume sequences that really chew me up. Of course...

    R/R since you experienced the same scenario, did you anticipate continuation of the uptrend? I imagine so, but it seems we may be in the minority.

    First its nice to see Pr0crast back. Second, I to got suckered into frustration and bewilderment with the dec. volume and inc. price starting at 12:25 only to figure out the problem while at the grocery store :). Third, I wonder if I am misinterpreting the concept of even harmonics with...

    IMO for the most part this was your typical "meat grinder" type day. The blunt instruments I attempted to apply today (P/V on ES and YM) seemed pretty much incomplete for todays particular action. The resulting frustrating, and to be sure negative day; is filed under the heading "What a...

    8833, I will take a swing at this but I hope I will be swiftly corrected if I am off base. My comments about the 10:30 to 11:40 time period are made, unfortunately, in retrospect, but better late than never:D The first signal for continuation to the down side is the FTT of the CO at 9:35...

    There were some really frustrating periods today. The 10:35 to 11:40 period come to mind. However the repeated FTT to FBO's from 12:00 to 14:15 also caused significant frustration. What I always seem to have problems with is not so much an incorrect anticipation of a developing sequence, but...

    When looking for volume to lead the way and confirm what is anticipated, I found the volume period circled gave me no insight or confirmation as to what to anticipate. I have come to operate under the premise that once an FTT occurs it remains in force until a sequence and/or conditions warrant...

    Does anyone have an S/S set up in Quote tracker that they find the least bit useful? Seems the manner the info is displayed, i.e. without a histogram, the information given is one very difficult to assimilate and two even more difficult to interpret. Any thoughts?

    What an unbelievable day. On the whole I think there has been some real improvement in my understanding and execution of the JHM - YEEHAW!! :D :D Unfortunately there is another hand involved here :( ... #1 caused me problems basically b/c of the huge volume bar on the 11:35 bar. It caused...
