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....


Got out of the long trade and when short after the point 3 around 1399...
so now it has been Ye Freaking Ha to the downside from 1397.75 to 1392...

and i have now bailed on a scale out of half on the break of the day's low...

color me a happy Channeler...

FTT = FIT (Failure in Traverse) my new name where the maket throws a Fit...

Today's ES Chart.

I've added some extra annotations after market close in an effort to show those still struggling with Gaussians how to 'ignore' the fine detail (for now) while remaining focused on the larger picture.

Judging from the nuymber and quality of psots today, it does appear that most enjoyed a pretty good day. Nciely done. Keep up the great work.

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

Nice. Similar to what I learned. Spyder mentioned after an FTT we should be seeing decreasing non dominant volume.... I was reading this over and over and then today I suddenly got it. Anything else means price will just continue.
