comments: was really telling that we had both end of bull
cycles on both the daily and 120 min charts at the highs.
anyway the thing about the cycle indicator is that price either
respects it or not. Most of the time price will reverse off
the cycles. However when price blows through them that doesn't mean
they failed, in fact that's very useful information, it means you
have a breakdown or breakout condition.
For example on this example, you can see on the 120 min chart
you had an end of cycle at the highs, then you had a buy cycle show
up (cyan dots) after a small pullback and price didn't try to
bounce there it just fell right through it like a hot knife through
butter. That told you that you had an impulse move down. when
prices respect the cycles you have a consolidation wave (b, 2, 4
etc). After you bust an cycle support down hard, the next
bounce when you get a sell cycle it's always a good short.
The same works on the reverse, if you bust hard though a
cycle resistance it means you have an impulse wave higher in elliot
wave terms, so you buy the next cycle pullback.
you are basically using the cycle indicator sort of like an
elliot wave type indicator in a way
This is the first I've heard any explanation about the cycle
indicator. I'd love to have more discussion about how it is
generated and how it can be used for predicting price
action.
also as Steve pointed out on Wednesday how the 60 length
Stochastic stopped right below the underside of 50%. Remember from
my educational comments, the 50% are on the 60 Stochastic is the
dividing line between uptrends and downtrends. That's one of the
things I use on the 120 min system as well. But that works on any
time frame.

Nice. Sorry if I missed

Nice. Sorry if I missed it, but did you ever say when these indic. would be avail to us?
