Thankyou for the very helpful discussion Kwt4x and OAPDave.
Here is the Monthly measurements on H4 into 8ths.

How do I forecast future cycles?” you may ask. In order to forecast future cycles, the most important thing is to begin right, for if we have the right beginning, we will get the right ending.

Look for a broker that is GMT +2, ie. Closes at NY Close on a Friday, eleiminating Sunday Candles.

Use Global Prime, Australia, to chart the Murray Math, they have non-expiring demos

Good Luck
It takes a lot for me to IGNORE you, but you can try.

This is a discussion forum, we discuss each others ideas, way we look at the markets etc. respectfully.

I think you "overthink" things, read into things and make all the wrong assumptions and lose your cool quite easily.

You are a very emotional, hyper sensitive individual. Not the first time you have over-reacted.

Are you sure you are cut-out for this business ?

MM Lines I can understand, similar to Pivot Points, maybe the calculation is a little bit more advanced.

The author T H Murrey, preferred the MML's based on 1 hour charts, although you could use on any TF.

One level stood out as the same on all TF's is the 1 hour 4/8 level, take that as the common central pivot line from where all calculations are derived from.

Not sure what the white boxes show, is it Gann Angles ? Squaring time & Price ?

You are right about indicators, I only use ones that mark important price levels that I watch, Previous Highs / Lows, session opens & impending News Events.

Thanks for your comments
Personally I think there are better levels than 4/8 ths
60min is a decent timeframe but not the be all and end all
I am conscious that after around 16 hrs that their is no real interest in my post or this subject
and if we do go into any depth It will just bore the few guys that bother to post on here
so rather than pollute the thread I will remove them and move on, with no hard feelings
Good luck

You have to be aware that people here are on different time zones, USA, UK, & AUS.

So 16 hours is not a long time to wait for a response.

There are more dedicated threads to MML trading I am sure.

Best of Luck with your trading.

That 4/8 Line stood out to me also Shabs, a kind of demarcation line, a hemisphere line etc whatever you wish to call it. Not as a set "trading line" though.
Lines to me are often attractors (for BOTH buyers & sellers) and from there we can work out biases and who might be in control "in the moment".

Important price levels is a great key for traders. Action can begin (and end) there.

Hi Dave,

Not boring at all.

I can usually, in a quick look, determine whether I can trade around indicators quite quickly (ie how "they" behave around certain market mechanics & behaviours).

The MMaths does not quite fit into that category yet for me, but doesn't eliminate them from any discussions (or my thoughts).

I am thinking (to myself) the reason the indi doesn't quite fit my viewpoint is that the MMLines visually take over the screen and, like many indictors,
draw a traders (mine) attention TO the indicator output rather than the actual market behaviour which is pushed somewhat to the background as it were.

I continue to look at your charts (behind the indi) to see what the market is doing 'around' the indi but I haven't (yet) been able to find a correlation is all.
That could be just me and not the indi if you know what I mean. It doesn't mean I could not trade the indi (but successfully, I could not say, yet)

You are well versed on the subject so maybe you could just annotate a chart expressing your "view" of the market around the indi. Up to you.

Imo you are more than welcome (like anyone is) to post your charts & ideas on Andy's open thread here.

all the best
Pete

The maths around MML is pretty straight forward, it looks at the market ranges for each timeframe and then divides them into 8 equal zones using 9 lines.

There are 4 more lines as "extremes". So naturally the middle line 4/8 is likely to be a central pivot for price.

The 4/8 lline however changes identity as you go into other timeframes, it could be one of the upper or lower lines, so I imagine you can read

the trend for each timeframe from that information.

I did ask OAPDave to describe how he used these charts and you can see what happened, offence was taken where none was intended, although he did calm

down & reposted the charts.

I agree with you, I would rather take more off the chart now, if that's even possible than add more lines to my charts.

Sometimes Less is More, if you catch my drift.

Edit: .........................And the charts have disappeared again !!! LOL

Yes, I have operated the MMLines many years ago, so the Maths (and Gann commonality of the eighths) I am also familiar with.

The 'trouble' (if i can call it that) with the Indi as i saw it is that it PRE-supposes that a certain line (eighth) has a SET function for the market to respond to.
ie [2/8] Pivot buy (Reverse)

When clearly there is a [1/8] line SO just buying/reversing/pivoting AT that 2/8 line as a trade suggestion is fraught with danger imho because even the developer, Murrey himself, says there is a [1/8] and [0/8] (and more), BELOW the [2/8].

As a novice, in which I was at the time looking back now, the 2/8 line buy/reverse suggestion WILL get new traders into DD & trade difficulty, at TIMES, of which they should be aware.


Okay, I also read back the last few pages and see that you did ask Dave like I just did then to add some of the thoughts he has at the time, and as he sees (and trades) the Indi around say the [2/8] reverse-buy line.

To me I would like the option to 'remove' the indi-suggestions of what is most likely to happen at a MMLine and maybe just say [2/8] is one-eighth from the bottom of the indi (even though there are extreme overruns also on the indi below the [0/8] line).

To me, at a [2/8] line (for example), the market mechanics and market behaviour are MORE important (to me) than what the indi suggests will happen there (reverse). That is all.


If Dave can show us what he does, or thinks, at a line like the [2/8] for example might assist new traders with this indi template.


(and Less is More - love it )
