Internal formations with increasing volume on second bar annotated.Ftp's and fbp's are annotated accordingly no matter what the second bar color.Sym's and eh's the annotation varies depending on color of second bar.hth

VE – Volatility Expansion(see attached) – ‘pushing out’ of the Left Trend Line refinement starts with the "zone" in this case the thicker trendline container's "zone"(see attached).Market needs a close on or beyond the ltl on the v.e. bar at bar close to be in the "zone"(see attached).hth

Would it be possible that, in the attached chart from jbarnby, the thin line I marked with "A" is the fanned version of the thin line marked with "B"?

 

Thanks, and a Happy New Year to everyone!

I suggest you look at some of spyders charts. It looks like a different fractal

Actually, Spyder never posted a fully annotated chart with only three fractals. Older charts from previous threads were annotated in a different fashion, and often contained much more than three fractals. Perhaps that's why he frequently encouraged folks to ONLY study this thread. :)

Is the trend (fractal) complete yet, or is there more to come? How would you know? Some of the best advice Spyder personally gave to me was to spend more time studying the volume pane of my chart. The trendlines tell us where our points reside, but the volume tells us what we've built.

I'd say that the trend is not complete yet because we have a higher volume peak(volume increasing). First post of this thread: if Volume is increasing, then the Price Trend is continuing.

Well hopefully you noted that the peak is around 1600 - nothing unusual there. But there are other ways of knowing. Sequences!

I have the benefit of todays price action.

However, when reading your post before today opened my thoughts were this:

 

1. Yes there is more to come.

2. Assuming your green trend lines are a Tape, then we require a further 2r2b (thin) due to the Tape Ve'ing at 15.55 ?

 

But that's from price rather than volume ?

 

Thx for helping out here on TL..

 

Kind regards

 

PS: did you mean to have a B2B on top of a B2B of the same gaussian thickness at the start of your posted chart from 15.30 ?

So if I read this correctly, this is what you do:

 

a. Draw the 3 containers

b. Draw the 3 corresponding gaussians

c. Now you can see from the volume pane what fractal you've built

Well, honestly it's quite a bit more involved than that, but i suppose that's a good place to start. There are many other considerations as well, and one must understand the concept of nesting the fractals too.

A slightly different view (green and purple RTLs and gaussians, orange laterals).

Yes I'm aware that it's not that simple, but can you start from that concept?

I'm not sure I correctly understand what the concept of nesting fractals is. Is it enough to say that, for example, a channel contains 3 traverses, and each traverse contains 3 tapes?

 

Sidenote: from what I see in your charts, there aren't always 3 tapes? Sometimes a single tape seems enough.

There was good discussion in this thread in Oct 2010 about nesting. Additionally, pace can influence how a fractal is constructed, and what is observable vs what is not observable.

Take a look at the attached Chart snip from today (08/04/2009) ...

 

What did the market form?

How do you know?

 

If you know neither answer ...

 

How many different ways can you annotate the chart snippet? Test to determine which of those ways represent the only correct method.

 

HTH.

This is a nice annotation drill to check your fractal jumping propensity :)

That which developed before the snippet told you, in the most unambiguous way possible, what the snippet would be.

re your post# 3708:

By testing if one can correctly identify the exact bar that ends the medium line down container in real time, without having the benefit of seeing what followed.

One can correctly annotate the snippet (the medium line down container), without knowing what happened before it started. I believe that in his reply Spydertrater was saying that one can anticipate that the snippet won't accelerate down and its dominance by analyzing the context, and he didn't say that the snippet cannot be annotated without the benefit of more information than what he originally posted.

Is it an up traverse like this?

 

Heisenberg

No it is a down traverse. Follow the link to Spydertrader's post for the discussion of the drill.

Reading through the posts for that discussion:

 

ehorn thought it was a down Tape:

romanus thought it was a down Traverse:

cnms2 thought it was a down Channel:

 

Spyder infers (only by referring to what came before the posted chart)

that it was a down Tape. to the 15.35 bar, from which we get the last 2B up Tape

to complete an up Traverse.

 

I stand corrected if I've mis-understood those series of past posts.

 

Thx

 

PS: logic would suggest that one would need to have known how to correctly annotate the "thing" prior to the chart in question in order to have correctly annotated the chart in question etc..etc.. !

    • 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.
