Have you actually tried drawing parallell trendlines before calling something stupid?

AAPL from 2016, identifying P-turns from volume together with pricetrends and extensions of P3's:

Let autocorrelation lead the way! (yes, "surf's up" - not marketsurfer, but you need to adjust charts properly in order to see that, or step 5-10 meters away) 1. For detailed chart reading it may help to have some context to visually assist and aide. What is the latest dominant development...

Started on monthly chart. Didn't draw the smaller trendlines at top yet, though long-term looks like potential for acceleration (after a nasty pullback in Q3 2015). Shorter-term trendlines may reveal when that may no longer be true. Pretty sloppy work after a shortish vacation, but...

How was that possible, method or psychology? The latter can be harder since doubling down are so often rewarded, until it's not. If not in Plan or reproducible, not part of any edge.

I've yet to encounter a forum with more professionals and diversity of traders. There are lots of forums with lots more charts, indicators, general trading ideas and holy grails of the week, and that is helpful too, at the start of retail-level at least. But when you've tried it all, you need...

I dunno. Sometimes a good movie just clicks into your life. Like after watching "Wolf of Wall Street" and "Limitless" in one sitting, I became a bad-ass retail pimp trader, snorting coke, hookers, blowjobs, dealin' like neva bufore. Brb, loanshark on the door...

Both one and the other may hold true, or be successfully utilized by someone somehow. Merely attempting to convince others is futile CW. Showing them the stream, to experience and act on by themselves, there's a chance of transference. That's a gift, and not to be trampled upon. Please remain...

“You know, when we fought the Cylons, we did it to save ourselves from extinction. But we never answered the question “Why?” Why are we as a people worth saving? We still commit murder because of greed and spite, jealousy, and we still visit all of our sins upon our children. We refuse to accept...

It's fascinating that 2 bars may extend into more and more context by reading new information flowing into the current fractal. Attempting to learn by doing through guidance. Anticipating trends with volume and range at daily fractal bars. Treating Sym's as anti-trend artifacts (basically...

Steep slopes tend to be short-lived, often with price turning on a dime and reversing just as fast and sometimes even faster. Steep slopes + shallow retrace signify DOM and sign of trend. Next bar tend to touch or break steep slopes, while shallow slopes tend to be more respected even if...

Started on weekly chart for PNDORA. Traverses seem to morph into channels in huge sustained moves: Or like this:

Excel, Ninjatrader, and other well-known tools. Refactoring means restructuring code/formulas in order to improve what you have iteratively (step by step), instead of designing the perfect system from the starting line (waterfall-process). In other words, learn as you go, and don't be afraid to...

There are many ways. From my experience it's best to start out using the most powerful tools and learn alot from what is already out there. But when getting serious do it all yourself. Don't rely on too many 3rd parties, and just do what is required. Refactoring is better than perfected code...

Here's updates to the original chart: Tapes makes traverses, makes channels, but seems traverses and channels may sometimes merge (big Channel P2)? Angle from Big Channel P1 keeps flatting out (Big Channel P1 to its P2, P3 to latest OB (Short to Extend). Price currently inside Latteral with...

Not compiling properly under latest NT7 patch (7.0.1000.35), though can and should paint traverses and channels manually for now. Would be nice with something that persists annotations to disk later though.

Unfortunately Big Charts offer just "Volume+" among other indicators such as RSI/Stoch/..., so no parameters for their coloured volume indicator. They only provide just a simple web service, so get limited fast over time it seems. Yea, I understand the principle and very good to keep it...

NT removed the Yahoo connector altogether. So sad! :(

This is a bit curious, I thought volume bars were painted according to close-open, but it seems to be close.0-close.1 in BigCharts-charts (please see last bar 11 Jul): We're only interested in close-open volume colour right? Updated EOD chart according to yesterday's action. PA action...

Could be similar PA to 2-9 Jun with sideways drift, Change of Dominance and DU of volume, though we won't know it will play out too similar, there could be similarities.
