Got a decent setup (GBP/JPY) and EUR/AUD after 2 days of no trade. Obviously there were lots of trades that could have been taken but i just didn't see them live or was not as per the rules i have set. Was a quick 60 and 40 odd pips. Profit was taken a bit early. Learning to be patient.

Quoting whitesta
Hi BWilliam, is there a special formula to calculate the Demarcation Line?
Hi whitesta, yes but the formula is not that important.
(How many times have I written I see most of the market analysis from the mt4 apps on the phone?)

It's the idea behind the formula that track the value of the asset in a dynamic way that's important.

What I try to tell on forum is this idea of market trade around the perceived value of the asset, that's what make price go up and down. Sharingan's posts explain it nicely.

The main marker of this value is the open lines.
I have written repeatedly so many times the importance on this thread.
And posted so many charts showing the role of open lines.
Market either close above or below it, depends on the value intent.
So, value intent is much more important than the lines and hi/lo boundaries.
Therefore, close line is naturally more important than open line.
Cheers

***after every trade we make, look back to see if it was inline with the intraday value intent, or we traded the opposite way. We have to check our mindset why we traded opposite.

{quote} I was hoping i'd get some clarification. Bwilliams draws a line and it's a word that's been used a lot so i reckon it must be a very important tool at his disposal. I was hoping he'd shed some light on how it's derived. edit: i see he's expanded on it let's see if we learn a thing or two from his posts
No worries thanks.

{quote} Hi FWR, 1.1514 is the open for Sep6. Perhaps the better word is cycle instead of hemisphere. A demarcation is a price that denote the crossover point whether market will take value higher/lower or not. There are many examples in yesterday's volatile market. Cheers
Cycle sounds good BW.
This demarcation thingy seems obfuscated from your posts. If there is a formula it would be easy to see it. Otherwise it's needle in a haystack. Point of control volume profile perhaps it is.
Thanks.

Guys, there are plenty of simple open line trades in London session today.

Don't this tell you the importance of open lines? Cheers
(was there any support/resistance lines?
Was it at day high/low?)

I have been a very silent reader of this thread, mainly because the idea resonates with me after spending years going in circles. Though I learnt alot while going in circle which makes me appreciate what is being presented here.

I have written some messages for Bwilliam which I didn't send mainly because I thought it doesn't make sense at the end of the day. But after you posted about high/low and Demarcation, I am forced to say some of the things I think is nonsense because I have been working on this high/Low and Demarcation idea for sometime now but not in the conventional way. But rather as hemisphere( buy and sell) just like CP calls them. Because just like DKrock said which I agree, at the end of the day, I believe price does two things, it either moves up or down taking out highs and Lows. Even if price is ranging as we call it, it is still moving up and down, Just not profitable in a trading sense.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around this value intent and Demarcation. Bwilliam, from the chart you posted about Demarcation, is it correct to say that the Demarcation line is the Mid of the high and low. That chart was a USDJPY H4 chart. From high to low was 55 pips. The Demarcation line is 27.5 pips.

Does it make sense or I'm I talking nonsense, loll. If I am making sense, How do you use the Demarcation line to make decision.

Kind Regards
David

I have always been obsessed with open line because the is always a movement away from it. I see it a very important line.

Crucial point said it best that 95% of the time, price will close above or below an open line. Meaning the is alway a guaranteed movement.
How to know which direction is another story on its own.

Back to my shell while I try to grasp as much as I can from you all.

EDIT:
In USDJPY chart, how do you handle the multiple crosing and range around the open line?

A demarcation is a price that denote the crossover point whether market will take value higher/lower or not.
If market calibrate value above it means we look for buy opportunity.
Or if market calibrate value below it means we look for sell opportunity.
(The hemispheres need not be congruent.)

Take the G$ example above, we look for opportunity to sell today and expect market to trade lower than dol. Cheers

Don't touch the trade button until the value intent becomes clear, as in there's only one option left in your logical mind.
(How will UJ close today?)

Have the balls to pull the trade at the head of the new hour, scalp 20pips and be gone in 5m. That's quick scalp 1m chart. Cheers.

I hate myself. Here is another cryptic post again that speaks in latin, what if X to Z is more logical?

Now due to my inherent curiosity, I can't help myself but look into this and waste my time again and not even finishing a lot of things.LOL

Super quick scalp at RN, in out the next min for 20pips. Scalping is fun when there's nothing else to trade.
Scalping is one thing, scalp 20pips against the trend is difficult.

Holy flying spaghetti. The lines even overpowered the black void, I'm just a man with simple dreams. This is some multiverse and multidimensional sh*t of the caliber of CrucialPoint (who has million on his account but traded using specialized indicators that he will bring to his grave).

And here I thought BWilliam's open lines and demarcations (mean) and closing (intent determiner) are crazy.

Everyday in FF we get something even crazier, and cryptic of course (with added 10 pages of psychology rivaling even Freud and Carl Jung ). LOL

Now I am sure, it is not that 95% are loosing but the truth is 95% are lost!

I'm done for the day, and thought I'd finish the week here on FF with a final chart of the GBP/USD (much of what I've traded this week in the GBP/USD, applies to the EUR/USD and the USD/CAD, which are the currencies I focused on this week). Have a good weekend and keep an eye on the news this weekend!

Grid is adjustable, Dave likes the smaller moves so it is more lines.
