DOW looks like having a pause - so I will have one as well
Very positive day on all accounts!
Need to see to other things for a while, and check the news and podcasts.
Might post something after the NYSE session close.

Have created Template with vertical lines indicating these 3rd Fridays with additional two white lines for 4th of July and Thanksgiving. Have slightly amended the colours and type of the vertical lines. The vertical lines been projected to the end of 2024, set to 17.00 GMT which corresponds to 12.00 ET, exact expiry time (11.59am ET) Other things that one uses can be easily added to this TPL and saved as a particular new TPL. {file} {image} Wishing good trading to all, 2be
I just loaded this template correctly and it didn't show up like you have in the image.

Hi skyf,
the posted template relates only to 3rd Fridays.
Please note that the vertical lines are drawn as "objects" and I use this arrangements as a basis of a chart but without clearing the objects

White vertical is the coming Thanksgiving Thursday. have a look at historic PA around those Thursdays

The charts that I post have different templates, majority use commonly available indicators.
However there are several proprietary indicators which I am not able to share because they are property of their programmers and creators.
The posted charts display a very common sensible approach to trading and the names of these indicators point straight to the possibility to create/program similar once, and even better.
I do not post templates apart from the one with 3rd Fridays which I have created to take of that particular insight.

Sorry that I cannot be of more assistance in that particular case.
I would like to assure you that I can provide a very detailed instructions if there is a programmer that is ready to program these indicators, as I am also the person who asked for them to be programmed on previous occasions, many years ago. I am not programmer, but I have been assured that it is not that difficult to program them.
I do not have the rights to distribute things I have not programmed, though they have been programmed taking my instructions into account.

The war loving circles have taken another step to increase world instability.
DOW has responded to the current situation.

It remains to be seen if that is a dump and pump, as the "reaction" on the world stage has been highly predictable.

gaps seems to be a good way to go about trading indices ( at least DOW)!!!
so a good number of trades b4 well deservedand more on this occasion just fade the dump wave and see what happens next
interesting PA - with all different and strange things happening since the last session close
Bitcoin close to the OTH!!!! ( have observed that bitcoin often goes in agreement with US indices)

Gap to the last session close still open, and D pivot is still well above (Yellow horizontal line) atm

keep your head high and harvest these positive points!!!!

What a day, big moves, demanding decisive and disciplined trading or equally decisive and disciplined not trading.
This type of a day can really hurt inexperienced trader, especially one who is convinced that trading is compulsory irrespective of market condition.

Looking at the DOW daily fibs and something else which I do not wish to elaborate any further (few of you might spot with ease what has been mentioned) I have been made aware of the possibility that the rotation might take some time, so todays PA has not come with total surprise, neither I was expecting such a big move prior to the news release on several occasions. (6 rockets fired-then 5 shot down and one damaged)
So gently and carefully have been trading with smaller size lots, all trades have been positive, does not happen that often that I have had not a single loosing trade, points to the fact that I have been too cautious and have not optimised trading opportunities, that is fine with me.

I have left historic drawn objects in order to remember, assess and learn trading PA principles - WRB has been surpassed to the downside, when this happens one needs to adjust accordingly and do sensible things. What a great example that is if one was able to spot it and take advantage to learn and possibly to trade.

hi 2be,

I was curious about your session boxes. Is that from an indicator found online or from one that you personally had created? I’ve been looking for that same one to help with easily spotting intersession gaps but haven’t had any luck yet. Seems like it would be useful.
Thanks for sharing.

Hi GDS17
Yes it is one of these "private" indicators.
There is nothing special or extremely innovative about it, I have asked programmer to do it for me on understanding that he owns the rights to that indicator.
As a side issue, it is a statement that in the pleroma of indicators, there is not such a simple one as that, directly correlated to the PA trading.
If anything changes re a possible distribution I will be more than happy to share it.
This really is such a simple concept, and I have used t for years.
I would be very happy to cooperate with a programmer if I can assist in making another such indicator.
Wishing you the very best and positive points,
2be

Time to go long on DOW, up from the S zone. SL below the S zone, explained in the previous post.
Love the pre NYSE activity on DOW. Getting used to MM making spaces for the forthcoming session often pays high dividends.
Will be posting occasionally, active trading, things to do and just chilling out, let the profits run, why disturb the process???
