Usually I just do this on a notepad saved locally, but sometimes people like reading them 🙂
Premise: check to see where edge is, and during the process, see what needs to be improved.
Current numbers to keep in mind:
- -LG pivots: daily, weekly – independent pivots. If possible, target as safe exits. Safe SL too.
-Maybe work on building a position during the week with the ultimate loss at the weekly LG pivot? - -5 bar fractal – 24hr fractal (26 bars?) If these occur in specific spots, they are more likely to work.. But which spots?
- -Time spots. If I only take specific time spots, I will miss out on some trades
- -Retracement spots. Pure numbers are too vague. Statistically, the best spots to reload are anywhere before 70% retracement of the full range. Perhaps use a reversal trade in those spots? “Once you’ve discovered that you’re in the wrong direction, get into the correct direction”
- Time element +2 hour buffer from previous wave
- Natural areas of continuation
- Likely weekly PA
- Price has some possible areas of turning based on previous projections
Questions:
- What is strong on a “entry signal” basis, the 5 bar fractal or time? Or 2 bar time fractal? The biggest issue with the 5 bar fractal break is that the size is too big.. does it need to be?
- Probability of a time element failing if it meets the requirements?
Test:
- Accuracy of 5 bar breaks to predict next wave
- Accuracy of 5 bar breaks to predict some retracement or projection (maybe projection of the 5 bar range or current range)
- Accuracy of 2 bar time fractal to predict next wave
- Accuracy of 2 bar time fractal to predict some retracement or projection (what range to use?)
- Accuracy of 5 bar breaks with a time element as well to predict next wave
- Accuracy of 5 bar breaks with a time element as well to predict some retracement or projection (retracement of the current range)
Probability of completion if trend+retrace+5 bar fractal+”defense” of a level=?
If I’m going to be using the LG pivots, then each of those tests must also take the current 1 day, 2 day, or weekly pivot into account..
A wave cannot shift until PTZ8 is met at the very minimum.
