. The first one lets you anticipate a new point 3. The second one doesn’t. Jack explained that very thoroughly in his post, link to which was posted by cnms2 in this thread.

 

Funny how the chart of Spydertrader with two VEs didn't evoke much interest.(the chart Spyder posted in this thread)

 

 

I'm still struggling with what to "anticipate" with regard to VEs. I finally came to grips with the chart that Spy refered to---I was sloppy with accel the container and the 2nd VE clearly failed in that container. But in your example the bars following the accel's. seemed to do exactly the same thing except the 2nd was higher volatility and nearly the same volume-----so a 2x4 in my general direction would be much appreciated

 

On the Spyder chart look closely at the last leg. Pay attention to how it STARTED and what happened RIGHT AFTER it started.

 

HTH.

The sequences always complete. Now take your answer and try to draw the tapes your suggestion implicates make the sequence complete.

 

You didn’t really pay attention to what had transpired in the volume pane, did you?

 

 

Gucci,

 

Thanks for commenting on the reply. I looked at the vol that created the 1st VE in question and saw the faster fractal b2b2r2b.

 

 

The idea of the drill was to show two different types of VEs. The first one lets you anticipate a new point 3. The second one doesn’t. Jack explained that very thoroughly in his post, link to which was posted by cnms2 in this thread.

Ok, I understand and see that. Can you kindly tell which chart of Spydertrader are you referring to above as well as the post by cnms earlier. I seem to have some trouble looking it up.

 

Let the market falsify your hypothesis. The sequences are always complete.

 

Spydertrader once asked how do I know I would arrive at the destination. I didn't really know how to answer him then as I was baffled.

 

Now it seems the process of learning to recognize the signs on the journey are probably the key and in the context of each fractal, the ability to see the sequence completion is needed before the next begins. Whether a new point 3 is anticipated will very much depends on the ability to see the 1-2-3 which must be corroborated by the volume gaussians. If this analysis is correct, then my M-A- will be one level up to stay on the right side of the market.

 

Thank you.

"The market tells you where the right side is. Spyder explained how to be absolutely sure about whether or not the market has changed direction. "

 

 

 

 

Where can that explaination be found? I would like to add that to my notes.

TIA

The explanation is actually much simpler than you think. :)

 

In the attached chart for instance, at what point in time can you be absolutely sure that the thing confined by deep pink lines is over?

..?

at what point did you figure out thing is "much simpler". Did you just wake up one morning and became a dif man? What made you to translate from a confuse sate to "much simpler than you think" state?

At the completion of B2B at 1610 hrs BO of pink RTL with increasing black vol ?

When the price moves above the point 1 of the thing confined by the deep pink lines, you know that fanning is impossible and that the thing confined by the pink lines is definitely over.

 

I too am curious, Gucci, about how you made the breakthrough from confusion and frustration to clarity.

 

Anyway, thanks for your efforts.

Thanks gucci for the reply and the question. If you want to know absolutely that the thing in the deep pink lines is over, you must go to the 1610 bar for the completion of the B2B and the increasing black volume of the dominant bar. However, I see that there were clues prior to that, at 1545, increasing red vol completing the sequence of the pink thing, at 1550 an OB on increasing black Vol which breaks the RTL of the pink thing and signals to anticipate change. I also wonder why the B2B doesn't end at the 1610 bar which is also the pt2, because everything after that is non-dominant to the pt 3 at 1705, confirmed by the increasing black volume at 1720.

 

Thanks again, sscott

TQ SScotts.

Following the IBGS , it looked like FTT FBO BO is being played out for the B2B to complete.

My answer: Once increasing black volume starts to appear on 16:05 Bar right after the trough of B2B, the deep pink traverse is over. The reason is that once black dominance is established, price 'breaks' the RTL of deep pink traverse.

Now, you do not really need me to confirm the answer, do you?:) Now all that remains for you is to go deeper into details and thoroughly annotate all of the sequences of that thing. After that you can start thinking about how could one know earlier that the market changed dominance. Look very closely at what transpired on each and every bar. Regardless of what I or Spyder or anyone else might say, the market has spoken.

But can it make you feel?

    • Herbert Wigwe's extended family and the kids he left behind are on a warpath.   The war started immediately. Herbert, the benefactor of the warring parties, was buried last year.   What is at the heart of the war is the vast wealth that Herbert left behind.   What are the issues behind the fight between the two parties, and what are the lessons we can learn from the infighting between the two parties?   It is story time.   1) In 2013, Herbert drafted his will and deposited it with a court in the US.   The will was later reviewed in 2015, 9 years before his actual death.   But he did more than a will.   2) A family office called Tengen Family Office was set up in 2017.   What the finance professionals that work for the family office Tengen Family do is simple.   To manage the wealth of the founders of Tengen: Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede and Herbert Wigwe.   Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede is the chairman of Access Bank and the co-founder of Access Bank.   AIG and Herbert founded Access Bank together.   Speaking of Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede, Herbert made him a trustee of the will he drafted in 2013 because he trusted his friend, brother and business partner to manage and protect his interest when he is no more   And AIG has been doing that since Herbert died.   But the conflict is more than AIG and being an enforcer of Herbert will   3) Before he died, Herbert was a wealthy man, a billionaire in naira and a millionaire in dollars.   He was the largest individual shareholder of Access Bank with a 9% shareholding of the bank.   His shares in the bank are worth 125 billion.   To buttress the kind of wealth that Herbert left behind   After his death, his estate received 1.1 billion in dividends last year for the 2024 dividend from Access Bank that would have gone to Herbert if he were to be alive, but the money will now go to Tochi and her younger siblings, and this payment will continue to the estate as long as Access Bank is in existence and profitable.   But he was wealthier than this.   He owns a vast real estate portfolio scattered all over the country.   He also owns the popular Wigwe University.   He built a palatial mansion at Queen Drive, Ikoyi, a palatial house that Herbert did not get to enjoy before he died.   He also owns substantial dollar savings running into millions of dollars in his dollar domiciliary account.   He also owns a private jet as well.   For a man who was this wealthy, he was intentional about his family and their welfare in the event of his passing.   5) In the will that he wrote in 2013, which was reviewed in 2015, he was very clear with what he wanted.   In the event of his death, his wealth should be managed by his estate and the family office, and the profit from the investment should be enjoyed solely by his kids alone.   Not his father, mother, or siblings.   His kids alone and he was clear with this instruction   When the family office was set up in 2017 to manage his wealth and that of his business partner AIG   The same instructions were left by Herbert to the manager of his wealth.   6) In his lifetime, Herbert had a cousin who is a lawyer, Uche Wigwe, and because Uche enjoys his confidence and trust, he made Uche and AIG, his business partner, the trustee of his will.   7) Herbert died last year; he did not see his death coming and was not ready for it.   But he was prepared.   Herbert was a meticulous man in his lifetime and so had a will and a family office to protect his kids regardless of their age and gender.   It is irrelevant that the only remaining heir is a female.   As long as she is Herbert’s kid, acknowledged by him in his lifetime, she is entitled to enjoy the wealth made by her dad.   8. After his interment last year at Isiokpo, his extended family had a brainwave.   Since Herbert, our benefactor, is no more, we can’t allow the kids to enjoy this vast wealth alone.   They're too young to enjoy such a vast wealth, and besides, the oldest of the surviving kids is a 26-year-old, Tochi.   Tochi is a woman, and in their thinking, too young to control what his late dad left behind. The rest of Tochi‘s surviving siblings are younger than her and they are in secondary schools.   The Herbert Wigwe family is accusing Tochi of living a champagne life, which they believe she is too young to enjoy.   Tochi is living alone with the house servants in the palatial mansion on Queen Drive, Ikoyi, that her dad built, which he did not enjoy before he died.   They also accused her of flying private jets and using the private jet that the dad left behind for her local travel.   To regulate this extravagance and more, they are demanding 20% ownership of the estate (wealth) left behind by their late son.   They also demand joint custody of the kids under the supervision of their 90-year-old dad.   9) When the family could not prevail on AIG and Uche Wigwe, the two trustees that are managing Herbert's wealth, to dance to their tune, the case proceeded to the Lagos High Court last year.   Just last week, the case was thrown out by the court for lack of merit.   To the shock of many following the drama, the Wigwe family went to Appeal court to appeal this verdict by Lagos high court.   10) The biggest lesson to take home from this Wigwe soap opera is simple.   Nobody knows when death will come, but as a rich man or woman living in Nigeria, put a proper structure in place to protect your family from the greed of your family who wants to reap where they did not sow.   Write a will.   Establish a family office to manage your wealth.   Appoint trustworthy people you trust as trustees and enforcers of your will.   This is the debt and the duty you owe your kids.   And this is what Herbert has taught us and is the best exemplifier of this. – Attributed Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/   
    • The following 10 year backtest was generated by my custom trade-stacking EA dedicated to the GBPJPY forex pair. It stacks profitable trades of different lot sizes, so this MT5 EA can be used in both hedging and netting accounts. As the EA stacks winners, and not losers, the floating profit (green line) floats above the equity (blue line) which indicates low drawdown. This strategy requires starting capital of 500,000 USD for an account that allows standard, mini, and micro lots; or 50,000 USD for an account that allows standard, mini, micro, and cent (nano) lots. The full backtest report is available if you request it. I programmed this EA for a commercial trader who could not get enough capital to use it, so I'm selling licensed versions of it. The MQL5 Market has, for the most part, been banned from doing business in the U.S. so this EA is not posted there. Just shoot me a message if you're interested.
