So----- Pace acceleration and bad vol. data

These make sense although I have trouble consistently interpreting PA.

 

PointOne--I saw the accel. trav. and the VE's but a little late. So you can't have a valid PV on a VE?? But a VE with decreasing vol. is a change signal or simply warning sign?

 

Thanks all !!!

anyone care to answer why in these specific examples we did not get change?
I suggest you reformulate your question:

- my trading fractal is ...

- bar N: context is ..., signal of change is ...

- bar M: ...

 

Also, post a properly annotated chart.

Any insight into why 15:40 and 45 (in yellow) are not change????

 

anyone care to answer why in these specific examples we did not get change?

 

 

(not everyone will like this answer)

 

If you tell us why you think it is change...

then ask the question,

you might get a more intelligent response.

 

As it is, people would think you are just blindly shooting in a barrel,

hoping a fish might pop up.

 

 

(a fish might.)

I was not asking questions seeking an answer, I know better than that. In realtime when WMCN (in my mind) did not I found the answers. Just thought maybe others may have had similar expectations.

 

The chart came off a pc other than my trading pc that is why they are not annotated properly and if annotated properly the answer would appear.

I do appreciate you taking the time to respond even if only to point out the obvious :)

 

I was really hoping it might provoke some discussion.

Jack has addressed this here:

 

....

 

I must admit that it makes no sense to me to ignore the price volume sequences outside rth that go into forming a gap. The whole world doesn't care if the Hamptons and Greenwich smart money isn't up yet. Stuff happens outside rth.

 

Hit me!

 

Finally back from the Vegas trip and catching up on this thread.

 

| also think that just pretending the trading outside RTH doesn't exist makes little sense, given that the purpose of the MA part of MADA is to gather and organize market information. Why toss so much out? The market also shows different dynamics due to volume levels after FOMC announcements and during periods of extreme dry-up.

 

The only theoretical justification for gap removal I can see would be thinking of the after-hours trading as involving subfractal sequences, however much price may move. Pragmatically, gap removal often 'obviously' works (Friday would be a good example), and I remove it when that's the case.

 

On the other hand, after hours trading displays the same sequences,sometimes with significant volume, and those sequences, plus the highs and lows created, can also provide obvious indications of what's to come. Thursday provided an example of that - the premarket not only made it clear that price needed to continue up to complete a sequence, but also about how far it would continue. ( CV charts have obvious advantages over time charts for 24 hour monitoring.)

 

In sum, I don't see why one needs to make an absolute choice. A trader can track all the available information and use what's appropriate to inform decisions.

Intraday,market internals dominate; daily and higher, externals do. See this link

This mechanism is behind the so-called Epps-eflect [16], namely that in high-frequency

data the cross-correlations between stocks are much less pronounced than in, say, daily ones:

Correlations reflect the similarities in how different stocks react to external effects and this is

covered for short time horizons by noisy internal dynamics.

These results offer a coherent qualitative picture about market dynamics. The impact of

incoming news needs a finite time to diffuse. Hence, on short time scales, the response to

them is small. The factor that determines the fluctuations of trading activity is internal: it

is the trading mechanism itself. On daily or longer scales, however, the internal fluctuations

have smaller importance, and the market tends to move with the global activity. In periods

of "business as usual", the natural human scale of one day seems to be needed to reach a

kind of coherence: News and trends can be evaluated, information is exchanged and collective

decisions are made. Interestingly, the scaling of asset return distributions [11] also breaks

down on the scale of one day...

My work for 8 Dec 2009. Note: I made today waaaaaay tougher than it needed to be. Today would have been fine using end of bar data, waiting PATIENTLY for sequence completion and then 1 or 2 signals for change. Lesson learned, again.

 

Feedback is always welcome.

 

Happy Holidays.

Thank you. I was just trying to figure out where I messed up....
You made corrections to your gaussians, leaving unchanged the trendlines ... If you looked only at your two gaussians choices, which one (or none) would you say is correct?

Another Thursday :) 10 December 2009
If you draw that long narrow lateral, you could see the green retrace. A suggestion: increase the volume pane resolution to better distinguish volume behaviour. The way you have it now seems to show that you use the volume pane mostly to log your conclusions drawn from the price pane, or at most to look at the very large volume swings.

(Production, sets, background extras, you name it.)   Yes, it will make movies cheaper.   But no, it won’t replace human storytelling.   Because AI doesn’t know why you care.   It can generate dialogue, sure. But can it make you feel? Can it tell the definitive story of your life?   (Well, unless you’re a robot, in which case… congratulations on reading this far.)   Confidence Is a Muscle—Here’s How to Build It   Will brought up something crucial.   Most people wait until they feel confident.   That’s a mistake.   Confidence comes after action.   Not before.   So how do you build it?   Manufacture wins—Set tiny goals.

    • 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.
