Great Photoshop skills Db! This isn't a jab at all.... I'm simply recognizing you for your ability to take my chart and cleanly remove some of my lines so you can show what you wanted to show.
This also of course means that I'm not on ignore after all, or else you would have never seen my chart.
I for one would love to see an example of these ranges being traded. You see, I haven't been able to develop an entry/exit criteria that works well enough that allows me to just trade a range on auto pilot. Wait too long to enter, now your stop is too big. Enter too soon, and you've got too many scratched trades. In your example, there are also so many little ranges, and if you extend the extremes of these ranges forward (the upper and lower levels), you essentially have a sheet of graph paper with lines everywhere. So first being able to find ranges is key. Then being able to figure out which ones are important/tradeable. Then you gotta know how to enter, when to exit, when to SAR, when to re-enter, and well, this gets pretty complicated quickly.
You only ever talk about the good trades, but it seems to me that many more trades set up that fail which you don't mention and this could be part of the reason why much of what you show seems hindsight in nature. I suspect that if you are actually trading like this, your years of experience guides you to skipping many range breakouts, but then this, in my opinion, comes to intuition and screen time and not just simple rules of saying you buy a BO up, or sell a breakdown out of the range. This would lead to many trades.
