Can anyone post this chart without annotations? (preferably from Trade Navigator)

Fashionably late. ;)

This should cover it:

Jbarnby- thanks a lot for posting your charts.

 

Inspired, I got back to work on this recently. Attached is a chart from 8/28 (done after hours). Thin blue is tape, thin magenta is 'below' that, medium lines are traverses. The end effects of the two traverses (and pt 3 of the second) are giving me some heartburn.

 

Any suggestions for improvement, or just error identification would be greatly appreciated.

I'm currently making a charting program that can visualise any period of any ohlc data on a chart. I have ES 5 minute ohlc data starting from april 2009 up till now, execpt the 2 months I mention above. In attach you can see a screenshot of what it does. It's a basic degapped and correctly colored chart of a known channel as discussed somewhere in this thread.

Next on my list is displaying internals. (so called yellows)

 

This brings me to the following question, besides 2 consecutive closes outside a lateral, what is the other event that ends a lateral?

It looks great. Well done. Spyders toolset on TN kills a lateral with an IBGS and an OB that pokes outside (close does not matter). You need 3 closes outside if 1st two are part of formation.

No, it is not correctly degapped.

So why do you think it isn't correctly degapped? Sidenote: I did not degap every bar, only between days.

EVERY bar has to be degapped according to Jack's current guidelines.

Hi innersky,

 

Thank you for your planning to code indicators for lateral formation. The updated rule for ending a lateral is here---

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/technical-analysis/6320-price-volume-relationship-501.html#post179301

 

Conditions that End a Lateral:

 

1. 2 bar closes outside that in of themselves do not create a formation.

2. OB (regardless of the bars close, on increasing volume over the previous bar) that pierces upper and /or lower boundary on increasing volume.

3. Up IBGS on increasing volume (over the previous bar) that pierces the lower boundary.

4. Down IBGs (on increasing volume over the previous bar) that pierces the upper boundary.

5. A close outside the laterel that would be a 3rd close outside but being a bar

subsequent to point 1 above.

(ie: 2 bar closes outside that do form a formation in of themsleves and hence would not end the lateral

but then a subsequent (3rd) close outside, after the formation, would end the lateral).

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please notice that there is Stitch with IBGS condition. I would like to provide necessary images of ending laterals if you need them for understanding the rules. May I ask you to update BarPaint2 (marks for IBGS) besides PV-BarFormations indie? TIA

Let's start with the creation of laterals....

 

I've attached a chart that jbarnby posted some time ago. Can anyone tell me why the circled area isn't a lateral?

 

If I had to make an educated guess, I'd say that it is because this area that looks like a lateral is completely filled with internals.

I am not planning to make changes to NinjaTrader indicators at this time... (but if it isn't a lot of work I'd consider making changes)

A good conlcusive ruleset for laterals would be nice...

 

I wonder if increasing volume really plays a role here? (I've seen otherwise in Trade Navigator) But I could be wrong of course.

I can give you a better explanation :). Those laterals have been drawn in manually. When I compare it to my TN with lateral study enabled it shows up as a lateral. Please find image attached

I'm not sure about that. If you look at his charts you'll notice that he also made other changes to the indicators. (like another color for stiches)

Also, I've seen exact the same thing on another chart from jbarnby...

I am confident about that. I manually drew them in and changed my colors to match his. I am sure other TN users can back up what I am saying.

 

Spyders lateral tool does not end laterals correctly in TN.

The chart has been updated and now displays internals (no laterals yet). For technical reasons they're displayed slightly differently compared to TN or NT, but it gets the job done.

Added laterals (see attached chart). Next step: automated gaussians.

Is there any reason you are annotating laterals in laterals, I don't recall Spyder doing that? Since the original lateral has not ended what do the internal laterals tell you?

 

Thanks

I assume they can be ignored, if they end inside the lateral where they started. But I didn't code that up. Yet.

hello!

 

can anyone please help me understand the clean page 4 rules

 

TIA

gltrader

 

gltrader,

 

I'm not familiar with any specific "rules" about clean page 4, but elsewhere in cyberspace there is an abundance of posts about "clean page 4". You may have better luck increasing your understanding if you start there, study the discussions, and come back here to ask specific questions, if necessary.

In the attached chart you can see automated gaussians in their most basic form. R2R 2B 2R and vice versa.

That was the easy (technical) part, now the real thing can begin. Iterative refinement.

Making small (price and volume context) modifications and see how it turns out.

 

The result, based on these gaussians and without slippage is -1.5.

I'm pretty confident that this can be improved :-)

Keep up the good work. You may run into fractal jumping. As an example in your 2B ( your fractal) you may have a b2b2r2b, where you are assigning the 2r part of the sub fractal to your 2B fractal.

    • MNST Monster Beverage stock, top of range breakout above 60.45, from Stocks to Watch at https://stockconsultant.com/?MNST
    • there is no avoiding loses to be honest, its just how the market is. you win some and hopefully more, but u do lose some. 
    • Date: 11th July 2025.   Demand For Gold Rises As Trump Announces Tariffs!   Gold prices rose significantly throughout the week as investors took advantage of the 2.50% lower entry level. Investors also return to the safe-haven asset as the US trade policy continues to escalate. As a result, investors are taking a more dovish tone. The ‘risk-off’ appetite is also something which can be seen within the stock market. The NASDAQ on Thursday took a 0.90% dive within only 30 minutes.   Trade Tensions Escalate President Trump has been teasing with new tariffs throughout the week. However, the tariffs were confirmed on Thursday. A 35% tariff on Canadian imports starting August 1st, along with 50% tariffs on copper and goods from Brazil. Some experts are advising that Brazil has been specifically targeted due to its association with the BRICS.   However, the President has not directly associated the tariffs with BRICS yet. According to President Trump, Brazil is targeting US technology companies and carrying out a ‘witch hunt’against former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, a close ally who is currently facing prosecution for allegedly attempting to overturn the 2022 Brazilian election.   Although Brazil is one of the largest and fastest-growing economies in the Americas, it is not the main concern for investors. Investors are more concerned about Tariffs on Canada. The White House said it will impose a 35% tariff on Canadian imports, effective August 1st, raised from the earlier 25% rate. This covers most goods, with exceptions under USMCA and exemptions for Canadian companies producing within the US.   It is also vital for investors to note that Canada is among the US;’s top 3 trading partners. The increase was justified by Trump citing issues like the trade deficit, Canada’s handling of fentanyl trafficking, and perceived unfair trade practices.   The President is also threatening new measures against the EU. These moves caused US and European stock futures to fall nearly 1%, while the Dollar rose and commodity prices saw small gains. However, the main benefactor was Silver and Gold, which are the two best-performing metals of the day.   How Will The Fed Impact Gold? The FOMC indicated that the number of members warming up to the idea of interest rate cuts is increasing. If the Fed takes a dovish tone, the price of Gold may further rise. In the meantime, the President pushing for a 3% rate cut sparked talk of a more dovish Fed nominee next year and raised worries about future inflation.   Meanwhile, jobless claims dropped for the fourth straight week, coming in better than expected and supporting the view that the labour market remains strong after last week’s solid payroll report. Markets still expect two rate cuts this year, but rate futures show most investors see no change at the next Fed meeting. Gold is expected to finish the week mostly flat.       Gold 15-Minute Chart     If the price of Gold increases above $3,337.50, buy signals are likely to materialise again. However, the price is currently retracing, meaning traders are likely to wait for regained momentum before entering further buy trades. According to HSBC, they expect an average price of $3,215 in 2025 (up from $3,015) and $3,125 in 2026, with projections showing a volatile range between $3,100 and $3,600   Key Takeaway Points: Gold Rises on Safe-Haven Demand. Gold gained as investors reacted to rising trade tensions and market volatility. Canada Tariffs Spark Concern. A 35% tariff on Canadian imports drew attention due to Canada’s key trade role. Fed Dovish Shift Supports Gold. Growing expectations of rate cuts and Trump’s push for a 3% cut boosted the gold outlook. Gold Eyes Breakout Above $3,337.5. Price is consolidating; a move above $3,337.50 could trigger new buy signals. Always trade with strict risk management.

    • Back in the early 2000s, Netflix mailed DVDs to subscribers.   It wasn’t sexy—but it was smart. No late fees. No driving to Blockbuster.   People subscribed because they were lazy. Investors bought the stock because they realized everyone else is lazy too.   Those who saw the future in that red envelope? They could’ve caught a 10,000%+ move.   Another story…   Back in the mid-2000s, Amazon launched Prime.   It wasn’t flashy—but it was fast.   Free two-day shipping. No minimums. No hassle.   People subscribed because they were impatient. Investors bought the stock because they realized everyone hates waiting.   Those who saw the future in that speedy little yellow button? They could’ve caught another 10,000%+ move.   Finally…   Back in 2011, Bitcoin was trading under $10.   It wasn’t regulated—but it worked.   No bank. No middleman. Just wallet to wallet.   People used it to send money. Investors bought it because they saw the potential.   Those who saw something glimmering in that strange orange coin? They could’ve caught a 100,000%+ move.   The people who made those calls weren’t fortune tellers. They just noticed something simple before others did.   A better way. A quiet shift. A small edge. An asymmetric bet.   The red envelope fixed late fees. The yellow button fixed waiting. The orange coin gave billions a choice.   Of course, these types of gains are rare.

    • What These Attacks Look Like There are several ways you could get hacked. And the threats compound by the day.   Here’s a quick rundown:   Phishing: Fake emails from your “bank.” Click the link, give your password—game over.   Ransomware: Malware that locks your files and demands crypto. Pay up, or it’s gone.   DDoS: Overwhelm a website with traffic until it crashes. Like 10,000 bots blocking the door. Often used by nations.   Man-in-the-Middle: Hackers intercept your messages on public WiFi and read or change them.   Social Engineering: Hackers pose as IT or drop infected USB drives labeled “Payroll.”   You don’t need to be “important” to be a target.   You just need to be online.   What You Can Do (Without Buying a Bunker) You don’t have to be tech-savvy.   You just need to stop being low-hanging fruit.   Here’s how:   Use a YubiKey (physical passkey device) or Authenticator app – Ditch text message 2FA. SIM swaps are real. Hackers often have people on the inside at telecom companies.   Use a password manager (with Yubikey) – One unique password per account. Stop using your dog’s name.   Update your devices – Those annoying updates patch real security holes. Use them.   Back up your files – If ransomware hits, you don’t want your important documents held hostage.   Avoid public WiFi for sensitive stuff – Or use a VPN.   Think before you click – Emails that feel “urgent” are often fake. Go to the websites manually for confirmation.   Consider Starlink in case the internet goes down – I think it’s time for me to make the leap. Don’t Panic. Prepare. (Then Invest.)   I spent an hour in that basement bar reading about cyberattacks—and watching real-world systems fall apart like dominos.   The internet going down used to be an inconvenience. Now, it’s a warning.   Cyberwar isn’t coming. It’s here.   And the next time your internet goes out, it might not just be your router.   Don’t panic. Prepare.   And maybe keep a backup plan in your back pocket. Like a local basement bar with good bourbon—and working WiFi.   As usual, we’re on the lookout for more opportunities in cybersecurity. Stay tuned.   Author: Chris Campbell (AltucherConfidential) Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/
