Here is my take on the day.

 

A re occurring question I keep asking myself is how to identify whether a RTL break should be fanned out or annotated for the formation of R2R. For example, 11:40, where we have the first break of the purple Tape on increasing volume from 11:30 to 11:40. During that bar, how do you know in the future that it will be fanned out rather than annotated for R2R? Are there any signals that suggest this failed break out beforehand? Do you have to wait for confirmation by next bar? ...

Context: as volume shows the red / black overlap barely ended, and even considering the pace drop expected during this part of the day (12:30 EST), the increasing black volume to point 2 is still to come. On a finer level, the red stitch with increasing volume just broke the lateral's boundary.

 

For easier communication, I'd recommend referencing the bar number as Jack does (#1 to #81).

Sym stitch up and down lateral formations with volume combinations.How would you annotate each three bar combination with its matching volume?

 

Please enlighten me and others what you are leading to for showing cases after cases of bar combinations. If you want to make people to do your drills, I hope that you will provide sufficient clues and ready to share full answers explicitly in a short time.

Please enlighten me .

 

Fair enough.Spydertrader in post #5 of this thread posted nine scenarios of 2 bar formations and how to annotate using just price bars without volume included (http://cdn3.traderslaboratory.com/forums/attachments/34/11926d1246812959-price-volume-relationship-tentapes.jpg). I recently reviewed this document and decided to update it with post #3618(http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/attachments/34/33027d1353525876-price-volume-relationship-cases.png). Then i noticed that the scenarios could be further arranged hence post #3620(http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/attachments/34/33058d1353775983-price-volume-relationship-cases-v2.png).Looking at #3620 i see it should be further refined(see attachment).Jack recently posted some "rules" with regard to processing or not processing the second bar of internal formations using volume.So i posted #3636(http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/attachments/34/33221d1354466088-price-volume-relationship-internals-black-volume.png) to help others think thru and annotate the processing or not processing of the second bar of an internal formation.I also posted the ways that three bars in a row could appear with and without volume.I showed how three bars is really two 2 bar "scenarios".Then i posted three bars with volume so others could start the refinement of how to process or not process different combinations of three bars(really two 2 bar scenarios but with volume).Why bother? I have found this process to be enlightening.All price movements entail really just some combination of multiple 2 bar scenarios and depending on the volume and processing or lack of processing this changes the annotations.On my current charts all internal formations where the second bar is decreasing volume the second bar is lite gray in color.This indicates visibly to me to not process(no annotation of that internal formation).Just as important internal formations with increasing volume on the second bar i know to process(annotate).Also i know when to process internal formations inside lateral formations.This should help when you review the lateral drill posted by spydertrader on sym pennant lateral formations with a boundary.Lately i am reviewing how stitches fit into the scenarios.See post #3650 and the attached updated version.After doing this what's next? How about how to merge the 2 bar scenarios together.How to include the bar closes into the analysis when a rtl of a 2 bar scenario is broken or not broken.More to come.hth

patrader, I have seen charts of spyder where he does use the second bar of a pennant with decreasing volume. It is not common so I am guessing there are exceptions to the rule, please could you comment on the exceptions?

 

Thanks

Corrected sym stitch up and down lateral formations with volume combinations (all up stitches are black and down stitches are red no matter what the close of bar).Sorry for any confusion.hth

volume leads price. Always. And without exception.

 

...

 

in general terms: If volume is increasing, then the price trend is continuing.

 

Such is the essence of the price / volume relationship.

The attached picture shows my opinion.

 

Slightly different context(you start with increasing black volume case A's) but still the same annotation for the internal formations with increasing black volume on second bar(last bar in each of your examples).hth

Start with increasing black volume case A's then add an internal formation with increasing red volume on second bar(last bar in examples).hth

The attached picture shows my another opinion.

 

Invalid "entry" on your last bar (price or volume) of post.A price bar in the price pane and its matching volume bar in the volume pane always have the same color.Please try again.

Increasing red Case B followed by an internal formation with increasing red volume on second bar of internal formation (last bar in the examples).hth

 

While....we have different opinions due to different inferences. I have more stringent conditions to annotate after change of tape sentiment.

 

On the other picture where I teased I would run, I made that statement because the price volume relationship was not there (XB decreasing volume and then followed by an inside bar increasing volume) and would be better to wait for the price limit's gate open.

Small addition(third example from the left side) to attachment in post #3673.Needed to fan the up rtl of the case A to bottom of last bar due to the fbp's second bar(last bar in this example) being black.So even though the fbp (internal formation) is annotated in red the overall container is still black.When this occurs i usually will annotate a fbp like this with gray trendlines instead of red to visually tell me the black container is still in play.hth

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful.
