    Honestly , I viewed these and some more detailed daily newsletter explaining the difference between support and DZ. I still do not get it.

    None of the DZ upper/lower in the example match low/high of any of the previous candles, so how were these lines decided?  I am sure it something simple but I do not see it. Oh well, another blackbox.

    Look at my 2 posts

    Look at my 2 posts today on different times frames with purple boxes drawn.  It's not an exact science...just get away from an a horizontal line....because...it's not an exact science.  A rectangular box will serve you well.

    Another way to look at it is that the "zone" is simply traders admitting that TA is not an exact science. They got sick of explaining failures so they created zones   

    Good advice. The zones make

    Good advice. The zones make sense once drawn. I guess  approximation is better than worrying about the exact procedure.  Thanks!

    Taking out a prior high or low - use the search for numerous examples posted here.

    It sounds to me, and I am likely wrong, like any LL/LH candle in an uptrend would create a DZ (albeit weak ones).

    It might make sense if you build weekly DZ that way and use them on a daily chart to reduce clatter. But likely I am missing something again.

    vaguely similar to how this

    vaguely similar to how this July 21st DZ was drawn.

    But it does not make

    But it does not make sense here. Is the BOS 309.52 or 253.43? If the former why is not the 191.15 the revert candle? If the latter why is not the 193.91 the revert candle (and DZ)?
