You still clearly need to wait for the actual trigger, that you anticipate COULD happen.

Interestingly enough this could still be used in longer term trend trading (discretionarily applied as opposed to purely systematic), as it could probably help improve entries, and possibly minimise some slippage, and whipsawing stops.
(I actually find I sleep better with my longer term positions, the shorter term trading recently has my brain ticking over way too much at present..... and big boys....that brings up whole other connotations. )
thanks.

Yes I have used TTT to enter long term positions in stocks. Once you know where the Buy day is then it does give you a bit of an edge in getting in at or near the low of the cycle. Then if the stock is actualy in a long term bullish mood then it is easy to stay in.

Or the other solution is you play part of the Big Boys game. For exanple you buy 200 shares of XYZ then sell 100 at the top of this cycle and rebuy that 100 on the next buy day. The only reason for keeping the 1st 100 shrs is in case XYZ is very bullish and only makes a shallow decline and you miss the re-entry.

There is lots of tricks in playing stocks compare to futures due to the leverage factor.

Great summary post there Rich. Thanks. I am getting more familiar with the ideas here. Making the jump from this idea to your nightly statistical data is where I get some more confusion. If you can put together a post which shows the specific data you provide and how that can be used or not used that would also be helpful.
Thanks.

Rich, I'm not asking you to post real time subscription data or that you do it on a regular basis.

I am just trying to understand how you go from your statistical data you provide to the charts and trade planning from your point of view. If you could show for example, the CL data you provided last night along with how you would use the various data points provided in trade anticipation, that would work.

Provide whatever you feel comfortable with, I'm just trying to better understand how to use what you provide and then determine if that compliments the setups I trade.

I trade oil (CL).

Ok last night I was talking with a potential customer that was asking me my opinion on CL for today.

My answer was that we should get a rally and that my goal would be 1st the TTT PH line (previous day high) at 81.31 and that based on my 2 different types of averages for a Sell day rally we should get to between 81.44 and 83.32.

Well that is great prediction but if you were not long at yesterday's lows what do we do.

At the end of the day tomorrow CL made a nice ABC pattern and reversed. That would be what I would hope for if I missed my entry on the Buy Day Low.

Now if you were not sleeping you had a chance to enter during the night. We had the 78% retracement of the last push up and that was in the DP zone of the wave B. The DP zone is the green box on the chart. It was also between 300-327% extension on this wave down.

So that would have been my entry and would have been looking for the targets mentioned before.

In the case of my potential customer He was long allready so I hope he took his profit at the target zone.

Nice Buy day trade on TF this morning at the open.

We opened and reached TTT levels and reversed hard. We were also just at the DP zone on 240 min chart and we had a TS4 on MTP on the 3 min chart. Lots of divergence on both 1 min and 3 min.

Nice payoff so far.

Nice trade on OIL also

Today was a SS day and it opened below the Buy Day Low. We know have very good odds of atleast getting back to the BDL at some point today.

We made it and just made it. that was a $3 move cant complain here either as we rallied from in between the 2 penetration levels.

richboise,

Sorry, but I'm very confused by your last post. I thought Taylor only advocated shorts on a SS day (no longs) which would indicate the only trade that should have been considered per Taylor was a short from the 80.4 region down to 79.5 or 79 if aggressive. Am I missing an important point of the Taylor method?
