thanks, V.

Yes, I liked that pic from 2001:A Space Odyssey, with the astronaut in a psychedelic haze, overwhelmed into a state of shock by the abyss full of colour and shapes. Reflected perfectly me looking at my charts every day.
Might bring it back, but for the moment, I will be reguylarly changing my avatar with pics of Kandinsky art.

I guess that is also quite similair to the charts.

Are you picking extremes?

for entry yes but i'm looking for the daily range for the exit.

Out of boredom experimenting with Andrew's Pitchfork on 15m candles. One point at 4:15 low, second at 7:45 high and third at 8:30 low. Seems like PA is following lines nicely. It looks like a short term uptrend

 

[Vaco]

the thing i dont like aout the pitchfork is that its much easier to chose the points to draw it at after the event.

vaco just noticed your charts only thread (very interesting )

Agree, but if you can guess first 3 points rightly often goes to median - I mean the first move, although sometimes sticks to the lines till it breaks them. One of those things - if it's right its OK, but if not no good.

stop now at 46, target somewhere just above the pivot

12.37 dont like this trade, target +5 pips at 39

 

[Vaco]

you guys have gotten in just as the coil has really started to tighten, lets see which way it springs!!

 

[Alexbabwa]

took +5 pips, more patience needed?

 

[be-positive]

think the spring is heading northbound

 

[Alexbabwa]
