Could it be that, in the attached lateral, that at the first bar the previous sequence is complete, but that the actual signal of change happens no the third bar (the outside bar) inside the lateral?

For me the signal of change in such a context would reside on the 5th bar.FWIW

In an uptrend, price making a higher high on increasing volume is a signal of change?

The fact, that price tried to move higher on encreasing volume but failed to break out of the lateral suggested that change is in the cards. Just my 0,2.

rs5 - I see today a little bit differently. I marked up your chart.

 

I believe that the volume sequences have all been satisfied for the long. I believe the key area is 12:45 - 13:55 - you have it marked as rising red. To me this appears to be falling black.

 

What is your rationale for annotating volume that way?

 

Comments welcome by all...

 

P.S. the "missing RTL" note is not pointing at anything... you are missing a CO channel from 2/8 (gap adjusted)

What about this sequence?

 

I'm assuming your interpretation is that the yellow shaded portion of your drawing is action going from pt2 to pt3 of the "higher level" move from pt2 to pt3.

 

As I see it - the volume trend of your "red arrow" trend is rising. Doesn't this disqualify that particular read of the situation?

Thank you for your input, Saturo. And thank you for the diagram cnms2. That highlighted area did not look like a full sequence for the faster fractal to me. But then I am often wrong. The market should be telling us shortly. Happy MADA!

I marked on your chart several places where I started those containers at other points than you did (without respecting your line thickness convention). I believe them to be not only better trading points, but also the correct ones based of volume sequences.

I had trouble with finding the Traverses, just annotated the tapes, will check out your charts for ideas. This was an interesting day with the longest Lateral Drill confirming lateral I've seen yet.

rs5 - I marked your chart with an alternate view of the day.

 

Can you explain why you have 12:35 until end of day marked as falling red? On the whole the volume trend over that period appears to be rising -- especially the red bars. Maybe I'm missing some key concept to gaussian annotations. :confused:

My thoughts on this subject.

 

First off I welcome Spyder to TL.

 

Secondly, I have studied Spyder and Jack's work very carefully as I have also studied Db and Wyckoff.

 

My fundamental belief about trading is that one must find a perspective or context to view the markets, that makes the most sense to them as an individual.

 

That should be your primary goal.

 

Once you find that perspective you have your edge.

Could someone be so kind to post a blank today's 5min ES chart from Trade Navigator? I'm trying to compare some data.

This should work for you.

If you have 10:35 on 2-10 as a Pt1, go B2B to 13:30 Pt2, then 13:30 to 9:50 on 2-11 is decreasing red to Pt3.

 

Now, if you have 13:30 as a Pt3 down, then your view makes more sense and works out a bit cleaner. ;)

Interesting ... Trends overlap. Here the dilemma is: to fan or to accelerate? Which one is correct here? How do you know? Does it matter? Why?

i have a question re: carry over channels. with the 'gap down' today, i adjusted previous day's action to today's open.

 

In doing so, the 11:45 bar's breakout of the longer-term down channel from yesterday is no longer 'there'.

 

I guess my question is, are previous channel breakouts 'negated' if there is a gap up or down on the subsequent day? I can post a chart if required.

 

Thanks in advance.

I'm not really certain what you have attempted to ask here (a good reason to always attach a chart to a question), but if the market exists as a fractal entity (which it does), and gaps do not exist (and they don't) then how is it that a "previous channel breakout" would no longer be valid?

 

'Gaps' have no magical ability to alter the events of a previous day. As such, eliminating gaps also has no effect on that which developed prior to the gap event.

Hi Spyder - thanks for your explanation. Logically I understand what you were saying.

 

I attached a chart. What I had wondered was if the CO channel would still be valid given the 'gap' down today, but as you stated what happened since the breakout of the long down channel yesterday does not negate that it happened.

 

Still learning and working at this hard..:)

    • The big breakthrough with AI right now is “natural language computing.”   Meaning, you can speak in natural language to a computer and it can go through huge data sets, make sense out of them, and speak back to you in natural language.   That alone is a huge breakthrough.   The next leg? AI agents. Where they don’t just speak back to you.   They take action. Here’s the definition I like best: an AI agent is an autonomous system that uses tools, memory, and context to accomplish goals that require multiple steps.   Everything from simple tasks (analyzing web traffic) to more complex goals (building executive briefings or optimizing websites).   They can:   > Reason across multiple steps.   >Use tools like a real assistant (Excel spreadsheets, budgeting apps, search engines, etc.)   > Remember things.   And AI agents are not islands. They talk to other agents.   They can collaborate. Specialized agents that excel at narrow tasks can communicate and amplify one another’s strengths—whether it’s reasoning, data processing, or real-time monitoring.   What it Looks Like You wake up one morning, drink your coffee, and tell your AI agent, “I need to save $500 a month.”   It gets to work.   First, it finds all your recurring subscriptions. Turns out you’re paying $8.99 for a streaming service you forgot you had.   It cancels it. Then it calls your internet provider, negotiates a lower bill, and saves you another $40. Finally, it finds you car insurance that’s $200 cheaper per year.   What used to take you hours—digging through statements, talking to customer service reps on hold for an hour, comparing plans—is done while you’re scrolling Twitter.   Another example: one agent tracks your home maintenance needs and gets information from a local weather-monitoring agent. Result: "Rain forecast next week - should we schedule gutter cleaning now?"   Another: an AI agent will plan your vacations (“Book me a week in Italy for under $2,000”), find the cheapest flights, and sort out hotels with a view.   It’ll remind you to pay bills, schedule doctor’s appointments, and track expenses so you’re not wondering where your paycheck went every month.   The old world gave you tools—Excel spreadsheets, search engines, budgeting apps. The new world gives you agents who do the work for you.   Don’t Get Too Scared (or Excited) Yet William Gibson famously said: "The future is already here – it's just not evenly distributed."   AI agents will distribute it. For decades, the tools that billionaires and corporations used to get ahead—personal assistants, financial advisors, lawyers—were out of reach for regular people.   AI agents could change that.   BUT, remember…   We’re in inning one.   AI agents have a ways to go.   They’re imperfect. They mess up. They need more defenses to get ready for prime time.   To be sure, AI is powerful, but it’s not a miracle worker. It’s great at helping humans solve problems, but it’s not going to replace all jobs overnight.   Instead of fearing AI, think of it as a tool to A.] save you time on boring stuff and B.] amplify what you’re already good at. Right now is the BEST time to start experimenting. It’s also the best time to find investments that will “make AI work for you”.
