    hi Matt, trying to follow along and learn , so how do you measure target of upmove and when where do you start to go short again based on your method. if it breaks symmetry, are you saying the low for the day is put in.?

    targets etc, one can use

    targets etc, one can use symmetry - but otherwise when day trading here I just play it by ear i.e. continue to raise my stop to each higher low until I'm stopped out or decide to exit based off a resistance level or if I see a MACD divergence etc.  Basically it's a combination of things, not an easy one answer

    It would help the inevitable

    It would help the inevitable confusion of the masses if you could note that on the yellow sticky or remove the sticky so folks don't think the possibility still exists under current conditions.  You can always repost if it falls out of bed later today.

    i see you are using

    i see you are using a one min chart, so have to keep changing time frames. i do think we will pull back today and trying to figure out good support.

    don't get caught up in

    don't get caught up in the time frames I showed. It's all fractal - can be anything.  yesterday I showed a 5 min and a 1 min. I also do this on a 60 min and 15 min for example. 30 min and 10 min. Daily and 60 min. The time frames don't matter, they are relative to the time frame you are looking at, it's fractal.  The whole point of the educational series is that you see a setup on one time frame, then use a smaller time frame to see an obvious abc and fine tune your entry on that smaller time frame. it could be a setup on a weekly chart and then using a daily for your entry. see my point guys
