Gaussians

 

The Volume Sequences (represented by Dominant and Non-Dominant Gaussian Formation) when matched with the above drawn trend lines for each trading fractal create the B2B 2R 2B (uptrend) cycle, as well as, the R2R 2B 2R (downtrend) cycle. Increasing Volume in the direction of the current trend represents dominant Volume. We represent such phenomenon with an increasing Gaussian line in our Volume Pane with the goal of syncing our trend lines with our Gaussian lines of equal weight See Attached.

This quote is from the first page of this thread, also posted there is a guassian diagram

From the volume pane it appears the dominant price trend in the channel is down, so an upslope thick guassian to show dominance with a red color to show price direction would be the proper annotation. Unless of course you believe that todays channel represents a non-dominant retrace of a dominant up channel from yesterday. Context???

 

Thank you so much for your input. And thank you for reposting the volume diagram.

 

It is a constant struggle for me as I compare the diagram information to the real time volume pane. The diagram indicates that in the context of the price in a downtrend the red gaussian increases until price cannot go any lower within the downtrend. But doesn't the red volume bars appear to reduce in height from left to right across the day on yesterday's volume pane? What to do when there appears to be different messages from the price and volume panes?

it is typically normal to see volume decline as noon ( lunchtime ) approaches. although overall volume may decline from open until noon, there still exists a price volume relationship for the context during that segment of time . Same stands for the overall volume from open until close regarding context of the price volume relationship. Common also to see the saucer shape to the entire days volume, open to close , but within that ' saucer ' exists price volume context for each container built within the day

Yes the red volume does decrease in the afternoon, but which was dominant all morning?

RED!!! the dominant slope is up, the price direction is red. Dominant trend price was going down, so the dominant (red) slope is up. We may have had a change in channel dominance in the afternoon, but we really won't know for sure until the market builds three traverses in a new up channel (WMCN)

Your annotations are progressing nicely as you work with the foundation building blocks. Ask questions along the way (if you have them).

 

Early on in my foundations, I kept a few snippets of encouragement which provided inspiration for me to continue the progression. I will share some here:

 

"The trading day provides us all with examples of trades and the segways to other trades.

 

The setting of any trading day is an incredible display of the potential of the market to deliver money to traders. The opportunity is there. It is clear and always providing output to any kind of successful trader. A vast array of successful methods are always at work harvesting profits. The H/L range of any day provides anyone with a vast excess of earning power to achieve any goal with even a low efficiency and effectiveness.

 

Now look at what succeeding by achieving 4 points of movement per day, gets you:

 

Nailing 4 points a day for each contract in use lets a person go from 1 contract to 10 contracts in about 40 days by doubling from 1 to 2 to 4 to 8 then adding 2 more to 10 contracts. This can only happen, however if there is knowledge, skills and experience in place. When they are, then 4 points a day is not what is being made daily. It is an entirely different picture where greater effectiveness and efficiency are at work. 4 points of price movement is in hand soon after any morning begins. 6 and 1/2 hours of seamless continuous trading every day yields a good portion of what the market offers daily. All of this happens day after day within the annotated projections you are beginning to do. You see how doing the gaussians immediately take you further towards understanding.

 

Work very Hard."

 

Have a nice weekend.

I have attached a chart which I found very informative, which lays out a "typical" session and the opportunities which exist within it.

Seems like several gaussian formations were possible today.....Looking forward to others, more experienced views of today's three fractals formations. Thank you!

The Las Vegas Traders Expo held at Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino runs November 18 - 21. I currently have plans to attend the event, and for those interested, I can plan another session - similar to the one held in NYC. However, unlike the NYC event, Jack Hershey plans on attending and presenting. I have tentatively scheduled time for Friday (November 20) morning, and have cleared the remainder of the day. Should enough people show an interest in attending, we can do the same thing as we did in NYC (presentations, lunch, drinks, etc.)

 

In order to keep this thread on topic, anyone with an interest should send me a PM and include a contact email address (just like we did last time) in order to facilitate the exchange of information, and so I can provide additional details moving forward.

 

Additional details as we move closer to November.

It's come to my attention that The Las Vegas Traders Expo has scheduled many of the Live Trading Sessions (Carter, Netto, The Pristine/FX Trader Challenge, etc. ) for Friday November 20, 2009. As a result, I'll reschedule our event for Thursday November 19, 2009 - in order to alleviate any possible conflicts.

 

More updates to follow.

From Spydertrader's post #41:

...After completing the 'tape drawing' drill, and after one begins to 'merge' the individual 'two bar' tapes into longer trends which continue the current 'tape fractal,' stop annotating 'tapes' within Lateral Formations. Begin to note the significant shift in Pace which develops inside every Lateral Formation. Note as well the changes which develop as Price moves from inside a Lateral Formation to an area where the Lateral Formation ends. ...

Thanks for posting the charts. I see similarities between the 16:00 ET and 10:55 ET formations. PFC has me looking for that PT3 so I will be watching volume and the BO of that EOD lateral.

    • 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.
