Quote from Jesus_Freak:
FBO - A Failed break out after an FTT. Results in two bars outside of trend, but then a reentry.
Quote from romanus:
Or not reaching right trend line at all and resuming dominant direction. In other words in order for a BO to fail, it is not necessary for a price to come near to, or go through the RTL.
The price tries to reach LTL, moving towards it, but after failing to reach LTL it retreats in the opposite ( non dominant direction)Quote from Jesus_Freak:
FTT - This is when the price FAILS to move from the RTL (NOT the left) to the left. This is THE indicator of change. It is always followed by FBO, BO, or another FTT.
Quote from Jesus_Freak:
As far as drawing channels... this is where I can get confused.
1) the new p1 occurs at the Ftt (I believe on the bar right before BO)
2) The new pt2 exists at the first high (or low, depending upon trend) followed by a decline.
3) The new pt3 is at the first low (or high, depending upong trend) followed by INCREASING volume in the reverse direction.

As romanus pointed out there's a document as well, Channels for Building Wealth. Really a 'must read', but perhaps a bit confusing if you read it all at once the first time. At least it was too me.
