. The first one lets you anticipate a new point 3. The second one doesn’t. Jack explained that very thoroughly in his post, link to which was posted by cnms2 in this thread.

 

Funny how the chart of Spydertrader with two VEs didn't evoke much interest.(the chart Spyder posted in this thread)

 

 

I'm still struggling with what to "anticipate" with regard to VEs. I finally came to grips with the chart that Spy refered to---I was sloppy with accel the container and the 2nd VE clearly failed in that container. But in your example the bars following the accel's. seemed to do exactly the same thing except the 2nd was higher volatility and nearly the same volume-----so a 2x4 in my general direction would be much appreciated

 

On the Spyder chart look closely at the last leg. Pay attention to how it STARTED and what happened RIGHT AFTER it started.

 

HTH.

The sequences always complete. Now take your answer and try to draw the tapes your suggestion implicates make the sequence complete.

 

You didn’t really pay attention to what had transpired in the volume pane, did you?

 

 

Gucci,

 

Thanks for commenting on the reply. I looked at the vol that created the 1st VE in question and saw the faster fractal b2b2r2b.

 

 

The idea of the drill was to show two different types of VEs. The first one lets you anticipate a new point 3. The second one doesn’t. Jack explained that very thoroughly in his post, link to which was posted by cnms2 in this thread.

Ok, I understand and see that. Can you kindly tell which chart of Spydertrader are you referring to above as well as the post by cnms earlier. I seem to have some trouble looking it up.

 

Let the market falsify your hypothesis. The sequences are always complete.

 

Spydertrader once asked how do I know I would arrive at the destination. I didn't really know how to answer him then as I was baffled.

 

Now it seems the process of learning to recognize the signs on the journey are probably the key and in the context of each fractal, the ability to see the sequence completion is needed before the next begins. Whether a new point 3 is anticipated will very much depends on the ability to see the 1-2-3 which must be corroborated by the volume gaussians. If this analysis is correct, then my M-A- will be one level up to stay on the right side of the market.

 

Thank you.

"The market tells you where the right side is. Spyder explained how to be absolutely sure about whether or not the market has changed direction. "

 

 

 

 

Where can that explaination be found? I would like to add that to my notes.

TIA

The explanation is actually much simpler than you think. :)

 

In the attached chart for instance, at what point in time can you be absolutely sure that the thing confined by deep pink lines is over?

..?

at what point did you figure out thing is "much simpler". Did you just wake up one morning and became a dif man? What made you to translate from a confuse sate to "much simpler than you think" state?

At the completion of B2B at 1610 hrs BO of pink RTL with increasing black vol ?

When the price moves above the point 1 of the thing confined by the deep pink lines, you know that fanning is impossible and that the thing confined by the pink lines is definitely over.

 

I too am curious, Gucci, about how you made the breakthrough from confusion and frustration to clarity.

 

Anyway, thanks for your efforts.

Thanks gucci for the reply and the question. If you want to know absolutely that the thing in the deep pink lines is over, you must go to the 1610 bar for the completion of the B2B and the increasing black volume of the dominant bar. However, I see that there were clues prior to that, at 1545, increasing red vol completing the sequence of the pink thing, at 1550 an OB on increasing black Vol which breaks the RTL of the pink thing and signals to anticipate change. I also wonder why the B2B doesn't end at the 1610 bar which is also the pt2, because everything after that is non-dominant to the pt 3 at 1705, confirmed by the increasing black volume at 1720.

 

Thanks again, sscott

TQ SScotts.

Following the IBGS , it looked like FTT FBO BO is being played out for the B2B to complete.

My answer: Once increasing black volume starts to appear on 16:05 Bar right after the trough of B2B, the deep pink traverse is over. The reason is that once black dominance is established, price 'breaks' the RTL of deep pink traverse.

Now, you do not really need me to confirm the answer, do you?:) Now all that remains for you is to go deeper into details and thoroughly annotate all of the sequences of that thing. After that you can start thinking about how could one know earlier that the market changed dominance. Look very closely at what transpired on each and every bar. Regardless of what I or Spyder or anyone else might say, the market has spoken.

    • Date: 23rd April 2024. European PMIs Paint Mixed Picture, ECB advise a June Cut is Certain. The German DAX recorded its highest monthly increase as investors continue to predict a weaker EU monetary policy. JP Morgan again advised stocks are overcrowded and may see a stronger downward correction. However, economists advise this is only possible if geo-political tension escalates or companies fail to beat earnings predictions. Gold witnesses its strongest decline in 2024 falling 2.64% on Monday and a further 1.32% during this morning’s Asian session. The Euro is the best performing currency after the day’s PMI releases. However, investors should note that the US Dollar during the Asian session was performing significantly better. USA500 – Visa and Tesla Ready Shareholders For Earnings Release! The SNP500 rose 0.87% during the US trading session and also broke the previous swing high. However, JP Morgan again told journalists there are signs that the stock market is “overcrowded”. When institutions are overexposed to certain stocks or industries, it only takes one big fund to start de-levering and then others will follow. Though, investors should note that this would also depend on three factors. The first is earnings, the second is geo-political tensions and the third is inflation. This week, investors will largely watch earnings, particularly Visa and Tesla. Visa and Tesla currently hold a weight of 2.00% and are two of the most influential stocks. Tesla continues to be one of the worst performing stocks, but Visa’s earnings are less certain. Visa has beat earnings and revenue expectations over the past 4 occasions but has been struggling over the past 30 days. Analysts expect earnings and revenue to remain at the same level compared to the previous quarter. However, higher earnings can potentially increase demand. Visa stocks have risen 5.20% in 2024 and have a dividend yield of 0.76%. However, as mentioned above, the performance of the stock market will largely depend also on inflation and geo-political tensions. Though these are not likely to change within the upcoming days. In regard to inflation, investors will be eager to see if inflation again rises, in which case, interest rate cuts will likely not be possible for 2024. If this scenario materialises, stocks can decline between 20-30% ($3,700-$4,220). GER30 – ECB Ready To Cut Rates In June 2024! On a 2-hour timeframe the price of the GER30 is trading above the 75-Bar EMA and above the VWAP. In addition to this, the asset is obtaining buy signals also from oscillators and price action. The index has retraced since the release of the European PMI data, but if the price rises above 18,067, without breaking the day’s low price, buy signals will become active. One of the key drivers, along with this morning’s PMI release for Germany and France, is the latest comments from members of the ECB. According to ECB representative Mr Villeroy, even if oil remains volatile, the regulator will look to cut in June 2024. In addition to Mr Villeroy, Mr De Guindos told journalists that a rate cut in June is “crystal clear”. The guidance given is increasing the demand for the German DAX as are indications of stronger economic data. The French PMI data saw the Services index rise above 50.00 for the first time since May 2023 and beat expectations. However, the manufacturing index continues to struggle and fell compared to the previous month. The German PMI was a similar picture. The Services PMI rose to a 10-month high and beat expectations, but the Manufacturing Index read lower than the 42.8 expectations and is at a 6-month low. Always trade with strict risk management.
