Clearly this is NOT correct.
Yesteday end of day we were in a down tape so change was unlikely. On this snippet. I know Charts, it's not thoroughly annotated, I had a dec blk-inc red drawn in advance(again uncoventional annotations). This is how I saw the end of day.
If one slides the open. bar 1 would be inc red, bar3 irv and compression(retrace likely) bar4 dbv(expected), bar 5 dbv spike, (go the other way).
I know I shouldnt post another chart like this but just couldn't help it. At least it's just a snip![]()

FWIW, IMO, ticktrade, as long as you are not preaching heresy or ranting gibberish (and I don't believe you are doing either) then I have zero problem with your particular annotative style because you actually explain yourself instead of requiring me to think like you in order to figure out WTF you are talking about.
That said, I follow your logic except for one thing and that is why would you say that change was unlikely because we were in a down tape?

I guess I didnt word that so well. Signals for change can exist in tapes but as a safety rule it was suggested one wait for a tape break before entering. This, as I've seen since learning about it, has prevented one from jumping in after a meaningless low level IBGS or whatever....I also thought I had a sequence repeat signal.
When I have SC, regardless of if I think it's repeat I will look at a 2 min chart. If it agrees(usually a lower gaus peak) I will monitor it for an SOC, so in doing this I have no worries if my 5 min. MADA is spot on. That will show itself as the lower level sequences work themselves out.
