Just as a request, would you mind keeping your log entries into a journal like others have done, to keep the pages to a minimum. I think the past 4 pages have been nothing but your market observations... hope you dont take it the wrong way

Red FTT was no FTT had a new red point 3..

Dark blue has cont to hold with FBO.

I've used the last dark blue FTT as a point 1 of wider pale blue (run out of colours) down channel, want to see if major FTT can help signaify major channels..

Jander.

My appologies, although you are the first to complain ( politely) I shall stop posting.

I did give reeasons before as to why I was posting.
And perhaps it's what I need to do..ie; put it out there to show myself ..

Lastley, I was having (and no doubt ) will cont to have problems.
This is all in real time, and hopefuly it has helped others to see how to identify thngs esp point 3, and that it can be done.

this is all probably a bit crass for those that can do it but I'm still new to this..

I shall leave you to the more informative posts on this thread..

kind Regards

I think you misunderstood.. I value your posts and have learned some things from them. I just requested that you sum up your debriefs/thoughts into a few posts if possible. I dont think every realization needs to be posted in realtime because very few of us follow the DAX in realtime. If you posted your results end of day with times on them we would all believe you. Again, I hope you continue to post your findings and I apologize if my comments were taken out of context
 
It definitely does lead when it matters (ie change), if you spend enought time watching, you'll see.

Quote from optioncoach:

I am still not sold on a consistent YM leading the ES, however after going long ES at around 9:40 or so, the price was stalling back and forth and my YM 2-minute chart starting jumping higher and eventually ES began to break out of the 10-minute battle.

When I was concerned about the long, watching the YM start to break out of its pullback kept me in the long ES trade for a nice profit scalp. So at least for this morning it helped in my decision but I will leave the bigger question if YM leads ES for you ;).

hi Jander.

I misunderstand a great deal.. no offence what so ever taken from your post though.. and I agree, I' ve posted too often and I appologies to everyone for this..so much so that I have respectfully requested to Magna that he deletes todays posts from me, I hope he is able to do so.

They are not relavent to the thread as most poeple follow ES and even if viewed later by somebody, I'm not sure what they woould mean in non-real time mode..

I've had a few breakthroughs today, mentally and with/as a result of a better understanding of the methodology.

Again forgive me if the posts seemed self indulgent, they really were not intended so..

Perhaps it's the isolation,

Hope to here from Magna..

Kind regards

Had a nice aha moment just now, I'm watching the ym and spot FTT at 11:32 bar, followed by pt 2 at 11:40 bar and pt 3 at 11:46. Ok got my channel. Now I am watching ES and spot the FTT before it happens at 11:35 bar. find my pt 2 and 3 on the next two bars. Then comes the aha moment. On YM I see price test (actually slightly break) my LTL on 11:54 bar. Next bar is red dominant volume but price does not really go down. I think to myself, if we are going to get a retrace, it should be on non dom volume back to the RTL. Instead I see dom volume. I think I must be seeing a flaw. I then think to myself that I am anticipating a volitilty expansion on the ES (as I continue to monitor what YM does in conjuction w/ the ES). Sure enough, price ticks in one or two ticks and then shoot up strongly.

Although I dont know how to fully identify a falw, what I saw on YM bar at 11:56 seemed different. I'm not sure if my analysis is correct but the market gave me info that I used to anticipate what would happen next. Felt real good :D

These are super observations of what you are looking for and how sequences unravel. You highlighted all the really BIG components of what would cause price to change. I commend these type of posts because it shows us what you are thinking and how in tune you are to sequences. Trading should be NO SWEAT! Your post are similar to the thought process I go through... Keep at it. It only gets easier. SUPER!
 
Ye Freaking Ha...

Been long this channel up from 1394... at 9:30am PST... was trying my patience for awhile with the constant backfilling but now at 10:38 PST we broke yesterday's highs and i took a small scale out but since the channel is intact i am still long my bulk entry....
