am ES....

am ES Feeling very comfortable with "M" and most of first "A". Still feeling a bit lost with how the pennants, formations, lateral movement and lateral channels fit into the picture. That's my weekend homework.

Morning ES

Today's morning ES...

Making progress, only about 1 out of 10 bars really stumps me in the moment.

Haven't posted a chart in a while, think I've made good progress/improvement. If this is not so, please, may I have another.... :)

Just because you were able to doesn't mean it meets IB's policy. They could have erred when you did this successfully. I invite you to call IB compliance and confirm this. It's stated somewhere in the documentation. To answer your question, it was little effort to have my bank correct the...

I ran into similar problem with IB and mismatched name on IB account versus bank account. All I had to do was call the bank, speak to person in charge of wires and explain what happened. A day later the money was back in the proper bank account. This is no big deal for bank to remedy. FYI- IB...

I've been pondering this statement for days. Contained within the pages of this and the prior thread, it has been stated in one form or another that a)the trader does NOT predict and b)that the market is GOD and anything can happen. With the above as the given, how can one "KNOW" anything...

After reading this I feel quite lost. When did the idea of a traverse being different from a channel crop up? From everything I have read so far, a traverse is a pt3 channel of yet another larger channel. Is that what you mean? Or did I miss something along the way?

I may not have learned how to trade (yet), but I sure as hell have learned how entrenched I am in seeing things only one way. :) Thanks for pointing this out to me.

Thank you for this thorough reply. If you might be able to reply to a couple questions about the above portion of your post: 1) what exactly was the drill? Was it merely a matter of eyeballing these items on an annotated chart in order to train your minds eye for the patterns present? 2)...

Thank you very much. I will cease simming and just monitor. Are there any specific drills to which you refer? I would gladly invest my time in doing this. I do believe practice makes perfect, in my case I've become somewhat frustrated from a sense that what I've read in the journals don't always...

I value your guidance immensely. I would not attempt to take action in areas that I do not understand. Frankly, I did not post further questions because of the answers others have recieved for asking the type questions in areas that cause me difficulty. I'm at a loss as to how to proceed...

I find myself at sort of a crossroads. Many more questions seem to be rearing their ugly heads than I am able to answer, yet I think my annotations are by and large correct and I'm able to "see" the sequences more often than not. Using Callmates and Mr Black's posts as template and...

I can find quite a few actually (eg. YM today close 9:48, 10:30, 11:00) BUT in all the cases I've found from a very quick look is that if the IBGS does NOT close within the prior bar, it DOES close within a recent bar which is the bar defining Lateral Formation AND/OR the IBGS becomes an outside...

On my chart what I see for the 11:04 YM bar is... Increasing Red Volume(higher volume with lower low) IBGS (close above open) Lateral Movement( price closes inside range of prior bar) Is the answre which I seek in the idea that the IBGS overides the LM? If so, would this always be the...

I am truly struggling with this, and if I'm just being a total bonehead please feel free to ignore this. I am giving the best effort I know how.... Regarding the bars 11:00 to 11:10 today. In the ES change/continuation list you posted, my thoughts matched yours; so no problem. If I was only...
