Iterative Refinement

I've been working away at cleaning the hand written pages.
There are nine pages and they were written as a set oF notes for trading with the full display. I have learned how to resize the scans of the pages to get them to fit on the width of this page.
The page titles are :
page 1 Building annotations
page 2 cases
page 3 glossary
page 4 FTT
page 5 glossary
page 6 Log
page 7 Display (to show L's 1, 2, 3)
page 8 YM
page 9 ES.
I have figured out that, for me, it is hard to put two drawing on one post.
I may skip posting some right sized scans and just put up the new paint brush version I did.
Here is the drift, I have worked hard to understand my mind and how it works. It is better to use a 3rd party resource to explain the mind's working. Unfortunately I was trading long before that intelligence became available and so you will see that my terms are just close to the official ones now used today.
What and why things went the way they did for me is extremely unusual and very revealing. In a nut shell I lucked out by doing critical thinking and, fortunately for me, A CPM turned out to be followed. CPM means Critical Path Method; I'll spell out the first few uses of the acronyms.
Page 2 is the cases and I did page 2 to further explain page 1.
So first I will do page 2 as the Seed for all that I have come up with in the last 50 years. Anything I post in this series is done to clarify the posting and my orientation. I'll post a multipage Word doc which can serve as citations for points I will make.
With the template and the three trading approaches there is a duality of how the mind works and how these items work and fit together. So I am going to just put the Seed into the mind and do a parallel development of how the duality works.
My drawing the bars on brownlines for years caused my mind to do what reading is for people. Three parts of the mind work together to deal with the symbols (letters forming word), associate a sound of the word and store the meaning of the word. A case is like a word in the seed vocabulary. There will be many many "words" added to the 7 cases in the seed.
This is clean page 2.
There are lots of facets of this page 2. And it is done in an order that builds on the relationship of two bars (adjacent) so that at all times there is certainty and no probability involved.
as I drew a bar a day for years I looked at the relationship of the two bars. If you listen to musical notes, their tone is put in your mind like a keyboard. This is called "differentiation". several parts of my mind became differentiated just as the reading example showed that three parts were used. Each case has a stored meaning. And they are lined up like the mind lines up tone as adjacent to each other as if a piano keyboard is stored in the mind.
I have to go to a new post because time out is coming up as a result of my having to "edit" to get page 2 on this post.
Here is good page 2 which is the downsized scan of the original page 2 of the 9 pager.
I know this is not neat nor presentable. But those with whom I worked went to diner and we went through the pages and then On the Next Monday started trading with these thoughts digested. They were working from quite a while prior to this and so all parts of the display were in use.
I did these pages to check them out with regard to "differentiation" of all things on all nine pages. Here I am repeating the process to establish that a logical set of cases provides the TOTAL basis for the template SCT and PVT.
There are many things implicit in the seven cases and logically speaking nothing implicit cannot be brought out and still maintain the certainty of the algorithm. Certainty is a key principle and it is never violated nor does any fudging go on. One sheet of paper is not going to show what 100 billion possible neurons in the mind would show if viewed. AND there is no subjectivity introduced simply because one sheet of paper has the seven cases.
I looked at the pic on this page. What you see is the "four" pen use and Liz keep in stock as handouts to clients and traders.
What I was doing was illustrating what I wrote on page 1 which is in the next post. I am sort of starting with page 2 but I want to give it a context in the mind and in the 9 pages.
Soak up these posts as the weekend goes by and I will glue it all together as we go along.

The only possible explanation I can think of right now is that my second green up traverse in the previous drawing is not annotated correctly. I got to figure out why it is not a traverse.
1455 eob is a spike bar, so it's a change for a red down traverse, which I thought was a dominant in a new down channel. But on a forest view (big picture) I managed to screw up the order of traverses somehow.
Here is page 1 and it is the heart of trading. I will get into details as time passes.
here you see we are focussed on YM and doing the annotations on YM. The guys I worked with on this were doing what I do. Annotate YM just in time to be able to then annotate ES when the time comes for replicating the annotations on ES.
I will get back to the cases in a post or so.
At the bottom of page 1 you see the cases mentioned in detail.
Annotating which is part of MADA particularly M is part of the routine. Annotating is part of the routine and in this routine the differentaited cases are ALWAYS on the table BECAUSE THE MIND, IN MY CASE. was differentiated as is done in "reading" in several parts of the mind.
The mind, traditionally was thought of a permanently compartmentalized. See Des Cartes through Skinner. I will ease us through what is really the facts of the matter.
For now look at page 1 as a routine and that page 1 involves the details of page 2. Really read the words on page 1 and see that the cases are mentioned and how the cases are folded into the routine.
Also notice that the P, V relation is involved on page 1 and is NOY involved in the CASES.
The P, V relationship is ancillary to the cases in the mind and how the mind works.
Page 1 is supported by page 4 and I will post it next. Lets just spread these nine pages out on the restaurant table as I did to introduce them as a means of tying things to gether to get trading to be rolling along.

Today's ES Chart
Quote from ehorn:
Adding more thoughts to the chart. Not sure if they are benefiting anyone or not
They do! You saw the correct way for the up channel. Being concerned with the order of traverses I see now that what took price to pt2 of the CHANNEL was the fanned outward first blue traverse. Which means that 1335 eob - 1415 eob Lateral Movement is not a L2R traverse at all. Got to figure out why my previous view was not correct.
