Lets see if this latest one on the 5 min makes the adjustment to the one in black.

Price made C1 then went back above the EMA and then down again to form a C2

I am not sure in what way I 'll go on to share my grown experience and increasing trading here. There is not much reaction in remarks or even by which makes me think that it is not of much value. I am not sensitive or searching for a pat on the back, just that it should make sense to show what I am doing and looking for. Everybody here knows about the struggle I had myself first part of 2019, with mindset and pro-active executions.

I for one appreciate and study all your charts. I love that you show your trades.

Thank you

{quote} I don't know what is going on with those lines... This is my 5m chart with V1.6 and I don't have any of them??????????????? {image} Except the latest ones of course
Hi Alan,
The lines exits in Versions 1.7/1.8 as they are a byproduct of the "C" Adjustments, the lines Jazz refers to are 50% lines from previous targets which have not yet been reached hence they project into the current chart. Not sure what to do about these are they are valid (I think!) just old,
Cheers...Des

{quote} Hi Alan, I completely missed that element of the Targeting, great to get your experience in reviewing the indi, I have amended the code in V1.8 to ignore all triangles in which the RSi breaks the HHLL/LLHH of the line between C and the pivot being targeting. Hope it's a bit more accurate now Cheers...Des {file}

Excellent job mate . Many thanks for your work.

Much appreciated as i am still trying to grasp how to draw these ABCD.

I would suggest if the target D is reached then all the lines relating to that triangle are deleted leaving just the triangle behind for reference

Well done that man.

Here is a little one for you to solve for X.

This is another method of finding equal swings I call a box trade because I use boxes to measure, copy and paste to find D.

These are not related to box trades found in reference books. This is one I found for myself.

Whoops I forgot the chart... That may help a tad hey!

{quote} Alan or Jazz I had the RSI divergence line cutting thru that high pivot on the adjusted ABCD so did not plot that one. Is that still the correct rule on an adjusted ABCD. John

Hi Alan,
Could you possibly explain your criteria for determining ABC etc in the Box example above, it would help me a lot

Hi Folks,

I have attached a Beta version for the additional Targets identified by Alan, please remember this is a beta version so could contain bugs, if anyone has any comments or spots any obvious problems please let me know. You can switch it on and off as you wish.

Hope it helps

Thank you all for your positive words, I'll continue with posting here. Alan was right by stating that a (or ) helps to understand if you all are interacting in some way here. Also, of course, feel free to post your trades too including questions regarding them. In my opinion, showing real trades is of great value.
Alan, thank you for your ongoing support here and sharing new insights. State of the art.
Des_b, you are a hero too.

Today I was a bit ill, so I wasn't active.
I would have wanted to find a short in the direction of the H1 trend.
There were two horizontal ZOO price levels to watch on the hourly (white chart).
M5 showed clear div on the ZOO, so that was a go. Just a bit early so prolly I would have missed it.

Then the first entry I would have taken was the Short, at a perfect 50% retraced ABCD. Entry on two-bar-test on M5 (black chart). Target D hit, a quicky.

In the afternoon, I did one Short trade, left it with a set TP and BE+1, went to bed and found it closed at BE+1.

Now H1 EMA swing low as support until 1.2570, so your target 1.2637 seems an easy one.
M15 has 1.2641 as a swing low.

Ow you are talking about this chart:

In the circle the RSI pierced at C1 through the straight red line indeed. Very well spotted!
Does that matter for finding an adjusted D via C2?
IMHO not but this is for Alan to answer. What's your opinion Alan?
