Thanks, here is my current MO: I find that the 5min is essentially the only part that I vitally need. The daily 3k is useful to tell me where a price "may" change trends, which helps to decide whether to be aggressive in the future or not. However, ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

You can do it fti! I hope your good day continues I'm still in "university" mode (have to take notes fast & summarize...sometimes I can't even read my own writing). I'm weird abstract sequential learner-I build cathedral not brick by brick, but ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

So then fti's MO is by in large trend following-aka, trading when 5min aligns with daily. Meanwhile, we watch shorter TF's for possibility of an ending trend (I find the 3K spinoff on the 5min works well) However, we are allowed to trade the ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

My question is basically: If daily trend says down, and 5min flow says up. What is my directional bias? 5min (now)? Or with daily (big ships)? Maybe I should take trades only when 5min flow is in the direction of the daily...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Yes Gro, makes sense. The issue I am having right now is I know with good precision whether the impulse is about to begin or end. I have a harder time knowing which direction it will go. I was hoping that romancing the 3k would provide me a good ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

thanks gro, so it looks like G and U on my graph were in sync all along, just that Y is causing G & U to accelerate their move down. ok, 3K used for "general" directional bias. Pulse used for rest. I like your interpretation of time window, but I ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Thanks Gro, the line with 2 arrows show the growing size of the volatility right? I find it unsettling that although the 3k trend might be down, there exist multiple correction days-like points 3-4. Would you still choose daily bias as down? On 5 ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Happy new years everyone! btw, attached is my interpretation of 3k (now having the info accompanying gro's 3k picture) 1) G rises to top out (no higher high), E rises and then repulsed by G, U heads down (in sync) -up to point 1 bias is UP ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Thanks for the advice sylar. Yes, I will work on EU only. However I have noticed that being able to see all three pairs helps a bit. I just had a light-bulb moment. I should only be using the UJ & GU to find pulse of EU when I spot "capital flow" ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

yes, the blocks are all there..its the method by which you build it. Fortunately we have some very generous architects Gro, remember the picture you posted of the volatility band? I was wondering what the numbers and arrows are for? Anyways I ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

yes-no bad habits from now on! (then do you guys eat in front of screen?!). The more habits I begin with,m the more I fight myself

Technical Analysis Fallacy

oh man...I missed your post while typing again fana can you be more specific on you last post? Are you saying I'm falling into the trap where I rationalize all my moves?

Technical Analysis Fallacy

oh, I keep missing new comments while I type. @fana, yes I understand, I knew I was ok. I felt that no positions to save, so cut off (even though I could hold on longer, but the opportunity to buy would have been forgone). I have made the 2/3 money ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

ah, in retrospect it is not the pulse I have wrong. It is the directional bias (which should come from the larger volatility bands in the 3k right?). To get this straight, my 5min pulse for volatility is used for choosing skew size/possible entry ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

That's one of my many q's, how do you merge charts into one window? Wouldn't that influence the axis? I want to see the volatility band, but I can't put charts on top of charts like that. @Fana, thanks for the advice. Just to make sure, you mean I ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

uh oh...GU and UJ are aligned, but not EU. I pulsed the GU and UJ somewhat correctly for 40 pips after a short rescue due to timing. Now however, the EU is disjunct from GU and opposing my position. I guess the question is...how long can I hold on ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

@Indianguyinny, thanks for the heads up on my mentality training. Thanks for your input, it's nice to know that at least I have the 3K setup correct. Anyways, I was wondering what everyone's opinion on the 3K was today..or rather yesterday lol ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Thanks for the correction. Anyways, really nice move today, looks great on all 3k. May end soon though, 7 run bar max is close.

Technical Analysis Fallacy

From my interpretation, true average was used simply as a gauge for if you had missed the bus, and if the move was too risky to enter. I'm not advocating indicators, but I'm going to suggest putting on a 12 and 48 sma on a 5 min chart to see what ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

yes, her timing is a bit off but she can "feel" the music is what I particularly like about the video. I am just beginning to learn romance, seems it is very helpful to use when daily trend is hairy. Conducted rescue of badly timed buy scout colored ...
