ljyoung, First of all, I really appreciate your reply and if you felt offended by my remark I sincerely apologise. All I meant to say was that like most (everybody?) of us you also seem to have no clear understanding of what a PA means, although you clearly described what you think it is. But...

Well, I have read every single post on this thread and the 2007 thread and there is no definition there for PA. In fact, I don't even have a rough idea and nor do you as is clear from your last posts. And I suspect most of the participants of this thread don't know what a PA is exactly. I...

So how is this defined? During a dominant movement: Bar 1 volume = 20000 Bar 2 volume = 20001 Is this a pace acceleration?

I'm sure there are some other things as well, like if we completed the sequence of traverses. But since you are apparently very familiar with this method, I was hoping you can shine some light on the 'Pace Acceleration'. What is the definition?

I understand that the 'P' are only a signal for change when they appear at the right position (so not before a Pt3), so indeed they are not all a signal for change. But that was not my point. My point is that there is a clear definition for 'Peak Volume. That is not the case for a PA.

@romanus Thanks for taking the time to respond to my question about PA and posting these links. However, I had seen these posts before and none of them contains a definition what PA actually is. I HAVE seen a clear definition of 'peak volume', and that is (Volume[0]-Volume[1]) >...

Romanus, What is the definition of "Pace Acceleration" and why is that present at 15:50? Thanks!

Thanks, that thread is full of good information! And btw it seems to confirm what I already thought.

Well, that is a good question. These same people claim that the option prices are skewed in favour of the option writer because the majority of the option buyers are supposed to be n00b retail investors and the majority of the writers are professionals. However, even if this is true I would...

Hi, I know some people that make their money by every month writing out of the money calls and puts on an equity index. The intention is to make profit on the decay of the time premium. It is supposed to be a market neutral strategy. As long as the priceswings of the underlying equity...

You are completely right! I have stopped trading some time ago when my results were not good. I concluded that it was not just due to some bad habits. The key point is that I used strategies that were simply not profitable. Time to step back and find a strategy that does have an edge. You...

Happy newyear to all of you! I have hardly posted in this excellent thread because I'm still trying to catch up, but I'm reading everything in detail. Currently I'm around page 350 so still a lot of reading to do :D

Hi R/R, This clarifies a lot. Thanks for taking the time to explain.

Hi Spyder, Many thanks for your comments. So in this specific example you would do the same: wait? Are my annotiations correct? I'm still unclear under what conditions an FTT would become a point1 and when a point3... Could one say as a rule that when the current channel is an...

Hi R/R, Thanks for your answer. Yes, I had also read this phrase in Jack's document and therefore indicated it in my drawing. However I'm a bit confused what happens next: - I think the old (blue) channel is invalid now, since it was broken. But I don't have a new channel yet. So how to...

I will have a look at the video. Thanks. I have gone through the 2.2 document and it is a great help, but even after reading an re-reading some things are still not completely clear. So I would appreciate your comments on my drawing. Is the drawing wrong or you just don't like that I use...

Hi WGTrader, I know that to spot an FTT you have to look at both price and volume. When I put 'FTT' in my drawing, please assume that I have come to that conclusion also based on volume, not just on the price. I left out the volume part for now just for simplicity, because I first want to...

...and questions #2

Hi, I'm quite new to this thread. So far I have read through the previous thread (that ended last year) and I am now somewhere in January in the current thread (this one). I have also read Jack's document v2.2. Great that so much is documented :) At the moment I'm still trying to...

Hi Jack, A few questions on price-volume: 1) Do you suggest that an increase in volume precedes a price increase? I guess this is true in a rising market, but what about a falling market? If there is selling pressure I also expect an increasing volume. Basically I would expect volume to...
