I will not travel down the minutia path. I do not yearn for answers to obscure or rare occurrences that occur within 1) a self-correcting methodology, and 2) that do not cause peril to my safety, health, or financial well-being. We are talking about trading here.... 100% is neither a requirement nor a possibility!
That said, without going down some one-off made up volume sequence, an unlikely, but nonetheless a possibility for PP6a would be 3 T2F's each with equal volume, and of course no failsafe trigger. There are other possibilities as well. But who cares? How often have YOU progressed a sequence to T2F and/or beyond? Scarcity in the available literature is also a fact.
As for the DOM, you may like to start a new thread in one of the other sections of ET asking for book recommendations on Tape reading, DOM, DOM-Ladders, and things related. The DOM and related is NOT unique to JH or this method.
I have seen this "perfection" happen to multiples of people studying JH. Personally I don't understand the NEED for perfect. You have a skeleton key that works 98%. You are free to focus on the 98% or the 2%. I deal with and focus the 2% as/if/when they occur. That is how *I* learn.
Be. Do. Have.
There are a couple of things.
In the past, when someone (you know who) said he felt for me and you all should give me something in private to let me be profitable or leave me alone, you said about yourself you are a JH method rogue. It's fine for you, you annotate daily and are profitable. Who's to argue ? No one. But you can certainly admit this way of thinking have an influence on your work ethic and your determination to unlock, understand and use the system in its entirety, don't you ?
Effectively, 100% is not a requirement, by the sys being so resiliant as Sprout mentionned it, and as I'm beginning to understand by myself.
Also, I don't understand for now why three T2P's w/ equal volume would yield PP6a. AND as for "how many times have you arrived to T2F or after, I must say from LTM, around 2/3 times out of maybe 800-1000 bars. So rare, you are right. Even B-band is rare, like 2/3 bars out of 50/80 bars. Seems like along the 45+16 sessions fully logged and annotated I've done up to now, I must have, taking into a count the more I look into past logs higher is the possibility that I made mistakes and mis-IDs :
-around 50% of EEs are FS's
- around 39% are PP!s
- around 9% are A-band EEs
- less than 1% is B-band
- the rest is C-band and beyond. So less than "less than" 1%.
I must say I understand very well what you say and that there is a lot of truth in it.
As for what you say about DOM, I have to read about it yes. Starting a new thread is, nonetheless, nor a priority for me now.
At last, I understand that you do not understand the need of perfection. This is a rogue thinking and honestly, I must say this is a profitable thinking, you are in this case so once again who's to argue ? If what you do lead you to where you want, you are the one who's right.
The thing, for my case, is that it took me a while to understand there is no need to know everything about RDBMS, absolutely everything for being highly profitable each and every day. I really spent a lot of time thinking if any piece was not understood, you were fu***d up. That is not true. I understand it now. Even though one can miss an EE, FS will always be there to wash and replace one on the right side. This is so powerful. So, the need of perfection you seem to think I have, which I don't, comes from this fact : I thought until recently that I needed to know everything in an absolute and relative maneer. Again, I realized recently this is false.
With that said, concerning the 2% I don't get yet : I do not see the wrong/bad/unnecessary thing in the fact that I continue to study it by DD, building drawings etc. It does not cost anything.
BUT
And this is surely the most important thing I'll say in this post : I must say, from 1/2 weeks, I feel like effectively I understand and can use 98% of the method. And I'm wondering why I can't start trading. Let's talk concretely. There must be something missing. Let's ignore G/H/K bands for now. Ok I understand 98% of the whole, I admit and constate it. Cool (no, great in fact). But I wonder now how I have to use what I know.
Some days ago, Sprout made me download a trading plateform, this is a signal for me, and he invited me to add the tri-pane (30min and YM if I remember correctly). He said with that, I'm a click away from drilling up and down from coarse to finer detail. Unfortunately I've not received answer yet as for which data subscription to use on tradingview. I've posted a message for that, and I cannot subscribe to a billing without being sure it's the one I need. I have no money enough for that. I'm waiting for an answer, because exceptionally here, we're not in the "stimulate own DD is most important in JH journey". That's just a tool, this is not unveiling any secret, any DD result to anyone. Therefore, I'm waiting. Maybe you can tell me ? You are free.
In a nutshell, the truth is that I'm maybe ready to be profitable, even maybe highly (20/25 points a day averagely), I don't know ,and I should do that while nothing prevents me to work parallely on beyond F-band EEs. The thing is that I need to know what is missing to me, except the tri-pane that is a function available in the billing I must take. So I'm blocked for now. In addition, I don't know yet what would the YM 2min and the 30chart bring as drills, but I can't wait to discover it and do the drill in question.
Finally, I'm aware of what you say about the skeleton I have and that works 98% of time. I wish I could use it, and refine the remaining dark/unknown areas, simply because I like it. But I really wonder what prevents me to trade, I mean I don't know how to use it cause I constate if at each EE I reverse and us IF1/IF2 APA as I understand it, most of times I'm -x points a day.
