    Iterative Refinement

    1. Find a few examples of an IBGS which also provides a signal for change. 2. Compare and Contrast the examples which meet the criteria described with yesterday's 10:15 Bar. 3. Locate the differences. 4. Monitor for those same differences in the future. 5. Avoid repeating the same...

    STICKER : For Yannis to post original content

    One of the things I do enjoy about this web site is the fact that a number of people often post content from News Articles or other information, that often, I might not run across during the course of my day. Nitro, BylowSellHi, Achilles28, ZZZzzzzzzz, Pabst, thunderdog, Yannis, and a host of...

    Iterative Refinement

    Correct. Correct. Incorrect. Differentiating between Peak Volume and Pace Acceleration represents something everyone must do. Whether or not doing so will help you locate the why for this specific example, I cannot say with 100% certainty. However, I encourage you to compare and...

    Iterative Refinement

    I manually annotate all Laterals. The Trade Navigator Program has certain limitations with respect to Automated Laterals at this point in time. This is a function of how their software 'computes' functions when populating a chart. We have requested a change to the software infrastructure in...

    Iterative Refinement

    The Red Horizontal Line beginning at 14:50 represents a Channel, not a Tape or Traverse. Once the Green Up Channel sequences complete, one can anticipate WMCN with resepct to the Dominant and Non-Dominant Traverses. All sequences required of a channel completed on the 14:50 Bar The 15:05...

    Iterative Refinement

    I encourage you to review IBGS Bars which you know provide signals for change, and compare those charts (along with their complete and thorough annotations) to the example at 10:15 today. I'm confident, you'll 'see' the difference, and arrive at the correct answer. After all, the market has...

    Iterative Refinement

    Many people use charting software which sets the time by the bar open time, rather than as Trade Navigator Software does, use the Bar Close Time. However, I find it just as annoying to type it throughout my posts, as I see you do reading it. :) To that end, I'll add a sngle annotation at the end...

    Iterative Refinement

    If a trader wishes to remain on a single trading resolution level throughout the trading day (and as a result, avoid 'jumping fractals' during periods of confusion), then one must wait until the market has completed its sequences before taking action. - Spydertrader

    Iterative Refinement

    For those who use Medium and Fine level Toolsets, Having a Lateral in place on a Coarse Tool (5 minute ES), provides the 'permission required' to view another tool (2 minute YM). As such, annotating a Lateral (even when the market stops moving Point Two to Point Three) alerts the trade to check...

    Iterative Refinement

    The 12:45 ES [close of] bar represents a faster fractal than you want to trade. As such, the 13:20 does as well. The 14:10 ES [close of] Bar represents Peak Volume (if not 'one bar out' of an incorrectly annotated lateral). The 15:00 'change in dominance' you can see if you undrstand that the...

    Iterative Refinement

    For me, laterals end when "one thing has ended and another begins." In this specific example, the market moved Price from Point Two to Point Three, and had not yet finished doing so on the 13:50 ES [close of] Bar. As such, I continue the original lateral. Contrast this with the 12:50 - 12:55 ES...

    Iterative Refinement

    You correctly articulated the points in time where the market transitions from one traverse to another. Where ljyoung points out the additional changes, some may have added the additional lateral formation (13:50 ES [close of] Bar and forward), and by doing so, created a 'one bar out of the...

    Then you also know the market has provided the correct answer. You simply need only understand why. <img src=http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=2133799>

    Iterative Refinement

    Two things. 1. A Bar where Price exits the Pennant formation, and then returns (FBO), differs greatly from what you see on this bar. 2. One thing is dominant at 14:55, another thing is dominant at 15:00. - Spydertrader

    Iterative Refinement

    1. The market creates 'left to right' movement (Laterals) in a different manner than it creates 'up and down' movement. Look at the day's first lateral for a comparison. 2. I felt some might see this area as confusing. As a result, I made sure to annotate both fractals in an effort to reduce...

    Yes. Many FTT's appeared today. Whether or not they apply to your trading fractal is another matter entirely. :) - Spydertrader
