Spyder,
You have mentioned many times we need to place focus in the volume.
It is those pace lines that probably play a big role in the importance of point 1 and point 3 in volume
Those points will be seen as the valleys (troughs ) in volume and the pace levels will be most likely different when a b2b or r2r forms, and if we were to compare that pace level to when a point 3 valley forms.
If so, after point 1 valley forms we should look for a change in pace for the point 3 valley. One completed, then look for a pace change from a point 3 valley to the next trough at point of change.
So should we be placing focus on the valleys and their pace levels ( or pace increases ) at points 1 and points 3 ?

1) When differentiating each component of a traverse, would we find they are all equal, built of completed sequences ?
2) Are points 1, 2 and 3 on two bar tape sufficient for sequences complete to build a component ( one of the sequences ) that build a traverse ?
3 ) In the attached chart, are each of the sequences that build the red down traverse complete of all sequences of their own ?

Good post Dkm.
ok so lets start to differentiate a tape from a traverse.
There is a certain construct that will build a tape.
There is also a construct for the traverse.
These two can be compared against each other to differentiate.
We know a traverse is built of dominant- non dominant- dominant compartments to complete the traverse. Volume sequences will complete this.
Then each individual compartment that builds the traverse needs to be examined to see their construct.
We can look at each individual compartment of the traverse to see if they are built of a dominant- non dominant - dominant with volume cycles also completing this.
Tapes should be building each of the 3 compartments that build a traverse.
Tapes can be compared to a traverse to see if they require the same construct.
A traverse must have dom - non dom - dom in its build. Volume in a completed traverse will be increasing - decreasing - increasing .Does each compartment of the traverse require the same ?
Tapes build the compartments that build the traverse so
must a tape be built of the same ? increasing volume, decreasing volume, increasing volume ?
What exactly is the construct of a tape ?
What should be seen in the tape when it comes to volume sequences if any ?
This is posted to possibly bring about discussions of differentiation.

Awesome! , very good research BF. Changing up your workout constantly is the key to success especially if weight loss is goal.
Think of a well trained runner or swimmer. They can perform at very high levels of exertion with less energy expenditure than someone who is not trained.
In other words, if you become very efficient at an activity, you will be able to endure greater loads with less fuel being consumed by your body.
So, the key to burning more calories is changing up your fitness routine often.
Remember, I am talking about losing weight and getting in to a healthier lifestyle.
If power lifting or strength conditioning was priority, the you would design a program and stay with it for quit some time to see an increase in the % of the load you are lifting.
Not your goal here. Your goal sounds like what you have discovered, and that is to live a life of health and fitness
Changing up your routine is key.
Being inefficient at an activity can actually burn a higher amount of calories than an activity you are fully adapted to. . . as if you tried basketball for the first time ( higher expenditure) than if you have played constantly for years ( adaptive ).
Also get familiar with this. . .
Mets = Metabolic Equivalents.
You can find the quality research on health and fitness here on these sites.
They are the leaders and the gold standard in the fitness industry.

Congratulations on you goal to a healthier lifestyle !!!

+2.5 points on 1/2 and +7.25 points on 1/2 = +4 5/8 points/contract tradedIt was generous of you to share your live analysis. Nice trade

Yes the one thing OEC lacks for MC is historical data. Other than that, MC- Oec run well. It is possible to merge data.
What you will get with MC is outstanding customer support.
If you have a question ask. My experience with support is great. They address all questions immediately, and resolve it in a timely fashion.
Based on the customer service alone, MC is worth the investment.
Marina Pashkova has been superior in that division.
Seriously just write to them, they place the customer needs a priority.

This is great. Thanks.
I will give OEC a call tomorrow to see if they have a guide for this version. I have checked and see nothing newer than 3.2.

In this thread we can discuss the new features when there is an upgrade to OEC Trader.The official list can be found here on the OEC site but sometimes I've found things that aren't always easily found on the site.
I have downloaded new version on demo, but waiting for the live platform to be out next week I think.
I have not found a user guide to new version, is there one on the site?
I cannot find the replay on the new version and was looking for an updated guide.
Thanks for this thread.
The Price / Volume Relationship
in Technical Analysis
Posted
In this method volume is used a number of ways.
Spyder, if I have missed something here would you please inform me.
1 ) Volume per 5 minute bar
2) Increasing volume compared to last 5 minute bar
2) Decreasing volume compared to last 5 minute bar
4) Increasing volume throughout a fractal
5) Decreasing volume throught a fractal
6) Increasing - decreasing - increasing volume to build a fractal
7) Pace Levels
8) Pace acceleration
9) Pace deceleration
9) Acceleration - deceleration - acceleration to build a fractal
10) Dry up pace volume
11) Medium pace volume
12) Fast pace volume
13) Extreme pace volume
14) Peak volume
15) Peaks
16 ) Troughs
17) Multiple fractal build
18) Gaussian
19) Intra bar Gaussian shift
20) B2B
21) R2R
22) B2R
23) R2B
24) B2B 2R 2B
25) R2R 2B 2R
26) Pro rata volume
27) 81 bars of - 5 minute volume
28) Volume relation to price
