Enjoy and remember... each line and bar are as important as every letter in a word. One must know every letter in a word to understand the meaning of the word just like one has to be able to understand every word in a sentence to comprehend the meaning of the sentence. The same holds true for the paragraph in a chapter and so on. Happy reading.

Btw,on the posted chart there are only two signals of change on the traverse level. Which ones? Why?

 

Both are pt1 of traverse

 

18:15 pennant FBO

15:35

 

I dont see the 15:35, however 1540 did cross the previous RTL

How about Peak Volume (and spikyness of this bar)? What about 20:10 ? We have a lateral formation FBO there. Why doesn`t it constitute traverse level change ?

Another one for those interested. Why the first set of down trend lines do not contain a traverse?

Thanks

 

I did notice the peak volume, but I ignored it . From my understanding peak volume needs to be 3 increasing bars all in the same direction. In this case the prior bar is a down formation

 

My data was a little different for the lateral FBO, for me it closed outside on increasing volume. I see on your chart it closed on the line. A side note that is pt3 of the traverse.

 

Do you trade the pt1 and pt3 of traverses?

 

Thanks for taking the time, much appreciated.

Looking at your gaussians pt2 is inside your previous traverse (thick orange container)

It depends on pace and where I am in the sequence on a larger fractal (channel). I can only answer yes and no.

 

You are welcome. Du not forget to post your charts to facilitate the discussion. Like Spyder used to say, you do not need my charts, the market always schows you the right one at end of the day. Use the crisp clean logic and the resulting "rules".

I must be blind. :)

 

There is an FTT at 10:10 (FBP), equal low.

 

Unless you dont use internals as FTT's. We did exit the Lat on the opposite side so something completed inside.

Now what about the first increasing red? Where does it close? Where sits it's low in a tape ? What does it mean? Is it dominant? How many clues do you need? :)

The low of the bar is still inside the previous tape, so we have not arrived at p2 yet. The bar also closed back inside the previous bar. I think Sydertrader referred to this as lateral movement.(CCC)

 

Hopefully others will participate.

 

Thanks for leading this discussion

Your first incr red gaussian has pace acceleration, which means that container could be a tape. If not for the fact that that tape would have to FTT outside the prior Traverse's RTL. I've got it breaking the prior Tape's RTL, but since the prior tape was an Up Tape3 as far as I can tell... we can't use PA to promote to a Tape until we also can FTT outside the Traverse RTL. Of course I could have been off on my fractals. If so, and if your medium weight brown TL is a Traverse RTL then I might see what you're describing?

 

If your brown TL wasn't for a Traverse, then that down thing couldn't be a Tape and the close "in the zone" means rebuild down tape. Which may or may not have happened depending on where in the fractals we were to start with.

See attached. Comments? Suggestions? Ahas? :)

 

The former is the FTT of something and a stitch long, the latter is the Pt3 of something and an IBGS that exhibited continuation before reversing. But I'm not sure how else you might mean the question?

Lets point out the similarities first. To what extent are they similar?

Similarities: They both involve increasing volume and they both involve a mode change.

 

Dissimilarities that I'm aware of so far: one breaks a prior container TL and the other doesn't.

I agree with the previous poster, they are at different OOE.

 

The first one crosses a RTL but closes back inside(FBO). It also closes back inside the previous bar. It is a stitch formation. Volume is increasing. That is expected since pace increases as the approach 4:00pm.

 

The second one is an IBGS, Sentiment has shifted form a short mode to a long mode. Volume is also increasing. Mode is continuation

 

I am unsure as to what else there may be.

Hint from the market: they both form a point three.

 

Both of the bars are followed by an increasing volume.

 

Now the MAIN DIFFERENCE... come on.

 

Why the bar after the first bar can not constutute PEAK VOL whereas the bar after the second bar can and does?

 

Anyone else willing to join the discussion?

    • In Italy, I saw many of our brothers from different parts of Africa, sleeping and living in the park, the weather was very cold and its obvious that they were looked down upon. It made me want to cry and several questions overwhelmed my heart.   Is it not better to remain in Africa than to be homeless in this freezing cold weather?   I wish I have all the money in the world to rescue them...   Is this the reason why our skin color is looked down upon?   Do our government officials see this sight when they also travel outside of the country...does it hurt them or pain them like it pained me?

    • Date: 28th March 2025.   Market Selloff Deepens as Tariff Concerns Weigh on Investors     Global stock markets extended their losing streak for a third day as concerns over looming US tariffs and an escalating trade war dampened investor sentiment. The flight to safety saw gold prices surge to a record high, underscoring growing risk aversion. Stock Selloff Intensifies The MSCI World Index recorded its longest losing streak in a month, while Asian equities saw their sharpest decline since late February. US and European stock futures also signalled potential weakness, while cryptocurrency markets retreated and bond yields edged lower. Investors are scaling back their exposure ahead of President Donald Trump’s expected announcement of ‘reciprocal tariffs’ on April 2. His latest move to impose a 25% levy on all foreign-made automobiles has sparked fresh concerns over inflation and economic growth, prompting traders to reassess their strategies. Investor Strategies Shift Market experts are adjusting their portfolios in anticipation of heightened volatility. ‘It’s impossible to predict Trump’s next move,’ said Xin-Yao Ng of Aberdeen Investments. ‘Our focus is on companies that are less vulnerable to tariff policies while taking advantage of market dips to find value opportunities.’ Yield Curve Signals Economic Concerns In the bond market, the spread between 30-year and 5-year US Treasury yields widened to its highest level since early 2022. Investors are bracing for potential Federal Reserve rate cuts if economic growth slows further. Long-term Treasury yields hit a one-month peak as inflation risks tied to tariffs spurred demand for higher-yielding assets. Boston Fed President Susan Collins noted that while tariffs may contribute to short-term price increases, their long-term effects remain uncertain. Gold Hits Record High as Safe-Haven Demand Rises Amid market turbulence, gold prices soared 0.7% on Friday, reaching an all-time high of $3,077.60 per ounce. Major banks have raised their price targets for the precious metal, with Goldman Sachs now forecasting gold to hit $3,300 per ounce by year-end. Looking Ahead As investors digest economic data showing US growth acceleration in Q4, attention will turn to Friday’s release of the personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index—the Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation measure. This data will be critical in shaping expectations for future Fed policy moves. With markets on edge and trade tensions escalating, investors will closely monitor upcoming developments, particularly Trump’s tariff announcement next week, which could further dictate market direction.   Always trade with strict risk management.
