Ok. .
FrenchFry, thanks for the help.
If you and or Mr. Hershey would comment on this I would appreciate it. I think I understand now about 'Gaps'. I have some question as to which rows to indicate a 'Gap' on in the Log. I did it the way that seemed the most right to me. Hopefully I did not get it wrong.
Mr. Hershey, should I proceed with doing this 50 days in the past to 'cement' this in my hard head?
Thanks
RDBMS.
You have two bars and a mind.
you are looking at these bars to define the forming bar as ove of 10 unique cases of price. you drew the picutre of those 10 cases.
you MUST match the close of bar 1 to the open of bar 2.
I know you know that bar 2 has a specific value for its opening price. Use this VALUE. Move, mentally or otherwiss ALL of bar 1 into the only position that makes the closing flag MATCH the open flag of bar 2.
I circled all of the paris of bars on a chart you posted to get you to focus on the GAPS YOU MISSED.
YOU MUST ALWAYS DEGAP.
You are surrounded by people who have learned this process.
History is movable when you are making money.
All you do is match and decide the case for the bar 2. write this down in the FORM collumn.
An arrow is drawn to the UL FROM bar 2. If bar 2 is NOT the UL you cross out the volume testprocedure columns so they cannot be used. as you reach the rightmort one, you see the next column is labelled EVENT. If you drew the line, then write WAIT in the event row to prevent you from any further effort.
"wait" means WAIT to measure using the test procedure for volume.
The reason "WHY" of waiting is because there is no statisitcally significant price movement. therefore, using a non significant volume is AGAINST the RULES OF REASON to think you have UPDATED the market's current information.
In trading in markets those with the advantage extract capital from the "losers".
We are woring purposefully for 20 days and to become "experts".
Soon the P&L chart you retyped in Excel is going to be useful for debriefing each day. When you do the work bar by br, the money takes care of itself.
As soon as you learn to degap, then we can move forward. So far people are inventing new vocabulary to explain degapping.
Only degapped bars can be compared. So degap and then compare.
we came to use the price cases because the system of numberatiion for Price values is NOT a CONTINUOUS system of numeration.
RDBMS shows only 10 caes for the relationship of two adjacent bars.
We "squish" all the internal non traslating bars so we can have a remaining bar to use (we use its ends (volatility)).
I went ahead and put up the remaining facts for the system of the markets operation. Notice that it represents a lot of intellectual processing. The objective is to use look up tables in a REDBMS that is small, complete and takes almost no programming to operate.
