Always Trending & Choppy

Quote from WaveStrider:

Went back and read some history, as this looked interesting...

Not sure what is so controversial. Markets oscillate - check. (Even if it looks flat on one timeframe, it is osc on a lower one).
Markets have direction - check. ( Duration and magnitude are another matter). Markets form support/resistance highs and lows - check (if they didn't they wouldn't be oscillating - it would be Dumper to Hell or "Bang/Zoom Alice!").

I guess those indicators are for momentum/divergence, direction and swingpoints...

Going to have to check into the accuracy of how volume bars are calc'd on my charts after reading some of this stuff...

You've just figured out more in the amount of time you spent today than most in these virtual walls have figured out in over two years. Congrats.

The indicator is used to verify oscillations and at what level of strength (Prime or Minor) created them. Divergence comes in to play a lot but isn't accurate to use as a consistent trading tool unless it is accompanied but specific strong oscillations.

Volume Bars are a snap shot of price movement because they eliminate the variable of time and transaction size.
 
:) I was just kidding. :) Sorry if I gave another impression. :)

Earlier today I searched ET for others of your posts, and coincidentally I found your sarcastic post and I felt like making a joke at others' expense, not yours.

There is no contradiction . . . that was sarcasm. Here is the whole post so everyone can see that you took the phrase out of context. Perfect example of why I don't teach anymore.

Accepted.
I get irritated (no . . . really) when I get misquoted.

In a perfect world these forums should be a place to simply exchange ideas to help enhance each others learning curve. But ET and the world will never be perfect. We will always have posters who's sole purpose is to agitate and flame.

Don't get me wrong, I've done my share of flaming but in retaliation not as blatant disrespect for something or someone I do not have any first hand information about.

Thanks, but I was just restating what you had posted in the past, all of which are statements of fact....

Your ability to locate Prime swingpoints however is something I have not come across (though maybe I missed a past posting).

Since you said it is done realtime, does that mean you forego attempts at price projections (a la symmetry, fib extensions, Elliot, etc) and base your decisions primarily (solely?) on price behavior as-it's-happening?

Not asking for secrets, just trying to understand better...
 
I understand. We're humans ...

I just posted this on another thread:

    I for one, after getting upset a couple of times, I realized that it's not worth replying to aggressive and rude posts. I just stop replying and reading that poster. If I get out right there it is like a "wash trade", with no or minimal loss for me. </font>

Yes, no price projections what so ever. Price targets based on last oscillation support or resistance levels (whichever would be pertinent) but no predictions. Oscillations read at extreme and minor levels give one a clear view of price strength and direction. The prime oscillations give one a consistent ongoing view of the that charts trend and then the next incrementally faster chart's prime oscillations give you the strong entry and exit points to trade from.

I've heard people say that the Markets trend only 15-20% of the Time and move sideways the rest of the time. Those individuals can not define the trend.

Here is the E-Mini S&P from last April to current. You tell me if you could trade this having this information in real-time. Oh those labels, both on the price bars and the indicator are created in real-time. Trends only exist on the particular chart you are looking at as well. One chart at a time.

No spiritual crap here. The foundation of the information that went into creating those has been around for over 100 years and it has absolutely nothing to do with Fibonacci, Elliott or Gann. You just have to open up your brain instead of a book.

Thanks for posting the chart it's very interesting.

Take it a step further . . . The money is in being able to read the strength of the gyrations as they occur.
