Concept of relations
On the PEN you find a yellow MA, which is plotted as dot (very small kite).
Now, if you imagine, that you plot every MA, every pivot, every support or resistance line as dot above or below your candle (better take a PEN!), then you see the period with many dots above and many dots below. Even with many dots on its own range.
If you have that picture, then you try to visualize a complete chart picture with this layout of information.
I bet you will quit after short time because of too many dots, which each is a informational portion for itself.
BUT: what this picture shows, is, that every rule above or below a period, and also within, is just a point with a value and a certain distance to market's actual position.
We plot them as horizontal lines, because we (our eyes) cannot stand this amount of information on a chart, and by plotting them as lines, they are suddenly and additionally much more meaningful, because they now show sentiments. Even in a correct form of sentiments, as waves.
And in case of higher MAs, such as 144 and 72, these are fundamental sentiments, because these MA-periods stand in fundamental relation to markets clocking and periods and frequencies. For all the numerologists here, bring 144 (and its 50% = 72) into relation of markets periods, then you open the doors in your reception, if still closed.
The same is with the pivots, but them are calculated to an assigning period. So them are valid for that period, if they vanish because of time shifting to its next period, next range is valid. Pivots have a horizontal (time) and vertical (price) extension, so we can imagine them as crosshair.
And that is exactly what they are, for market in special. Markets doors - in to new move - out of old move - regularly happening in pivot-targetzones.
The hourly MA in opposite is as barbell visualized. It is the one, with which market decides, if it changes to the opposite side of its channel. Because of that the MA gives colored signal while being crossed. Because it is just a glassy barbell it doesn't hurt our view. Action-MA, coming into play when the move spans over it. So no wave-plotting needed for that, signals are faster old than your newspaper.. And one line less gives room for a more important other waving rule.
What we forget, when we look on our levels, regardless if MA, pivot, fibo or anything, what we forget is, that it is in reality just a dot with a certain value and a certain distance above or below market.
And not anything else. But the picture doesn't show that anymore, informational underlying lost in exchange for sentiments.
So it is always advised to stay conscious and aware about these facts. It is all a mathematical construct. Thus we can work with it. And should!
METAGRAPH shows you crystalclear, how market works on and with all these levels.
But back to our picture and its concept: when we have a period with many vertically distributed dots for every desired level, then we are able to bring the distances of these levels in relation(s) - to an actual OHLC situation, to a prior period, amongst themselves, or depending by different horizontal rangings (timely assigned ranges like pivots), or whatever.
We are even able, to actively build relations between several points.
If it's just with sense and raison, and a fundamental, mathematically correct, scientific ruled conception.
I've done this already and embodied it for you in METAGRAPH. You just have to watch with an orderly screen-resolution and setup.
Because of that, any plotted indicator on your charts, regardless which layout, is nothing more than that.
A relation to markets actual period. A dot. Not a line. A dot. The line is sentiment. Or assignment. Remember that please.
We can literally do what we want with all these dots. With all this stuff. Most impressive: we begin to see how market works, and can determine where and when it works how, and so we find the points, its working with, and understanding grows while we observe, because there is no fundamental change.
Happening all time the same. How could else? Fundamental means "no-sudden-change"! Otherwise the construct above its fundament would crash. Also market has to stay computable for itself. And plotting this, we see ad-hoc, when something not goes the normal way.
This is, when we really see the bot. It makes some crazy fast dazzling things, then it positions to its desired point with switch of period, and suddenly a complete new situation is existent. Not funny, when you now not know, what and how to decide. Suddenly time is short and the still needed invest to compensate a missing preparation leads to stress and false decisions. And loss of your fundament, your money.
Thus if you follow the credo "follow what to see to see what follows", then you do the best to be prepared for these events. Them are then just the signal for you, what you already now. Because market works still like always: Happening all time the same.
Take something fundamental valid for such critical projects like „building a base for fundamental important decisions in your life“.
METAGRAPH is such a fundamental instrument I really recommend to work with. Fundamental my friend - fundamental!
