Most of Jack's chart loose me. There are many things I don't get and appear to me as inconsistencies compared to the litterature.
Apart from this, from I've just seen before posting this, is that he uses close of the bar outside of BM to pu BMrev. Which contradicts my current understanding of his own writings.
I surely need a little rest today, I don't know yet.
Anyway I know there a mountain of work waiting for me still, and I don't feel at the moment able to face all this.
I'm psyching myself with the fractals levels, the pattern, the overlap zones, some EE's etc. Well, overwhelmed, simply. Classic ^^
On one side of the threshold is paradox and confusion, on the other side is clarity and lucidity. Understanding context makes all the difference.
In MADA there is a difference between the MA and the DA side of the equation. Market pace, PRV, YM-2m, two-pair on OTR charts, 3-tick rule, If1/If2 apa, action on the DOM and the T&S streams all become integrated to shift perception from waiting on EOB to ‘lock-in’ and anticipation prior to EOB.
Sometimes one DA’s at EOB, sometimes there are multiple DA’s within a single bar.
You are building capacity and facility which are the foundation to trust and confidence with the method as well as your proficiency with the method.
You have been steadily building your reasoning ability and capacity. You are not the same person as you were a year ago as well as a month ago.
Trust in the process, be complete with your work, debrief your charts/logs from the perspective of ‘how would I have pulled even more of the market’s full offer?’
As for Jack’s charts, most are students work and have various levels of consistency, differentiation and completeness. Creating a legend for yourself aids in this process of understanding ‘his’ charts with clarity.
Every aspect of the various annotations are in the literature as well as the ‘context.’
Make a spreadsheet that has all the EE’s on the horizontal axis and the chart dates on the vertical. Then build a matrix of the occurrence of EE’s within that chart. Most of the RDBMS charts are in the ‘...learning from scratch’ and the ‘....butt handed to me’ threads. On each chart reference the thread and post.
Organize your references, build a web of associations, make finding answers easier for yourself.
This is a fundamental reason why when searching for the answers yourself as the relevant questions come up is a significant part of the process. Go to the market first and foremost, then the literature, then compare and contrast the replies you get from your posts.
All you really need is within your grasp, sometimes it just requires a shift in perception.
