Doesn't matter I think, but what you think. But yeah.. looks like a good setup.

Here's my current euro entries:

Dear cyclists,
Thanks for many usefull posts and insights. Special thanks to you JR for also posting such practical guides. Still havent figured out exactly how you draw your latest squares - but thanks for sharing.

Now, what do you think of this superstructure. EUR since 2008. Remarkable consistency in PTVs since the 2008 wave. PTVs drawn in the picture have identical angles and lengths. Current move is down, but time is running out. Significant drop coming, or is the wave ebbing and we are waiting for some other influence to create a wave?

best,
I

I"ve had spotty performance making correct PTV's. I can make them after the fact, but to make forecast ptv's is something I struggle with. One way to carve out the potential path is with an arc. The full and proper name of a PTV should be Price-Time-Arc-Vector. The final vector position and length is the end result, but the arc carves out the potential path ahead of time.

Also, according to Cowan, PTV's map out the sides of a platonic solid and these sides can overlap somewhat. So PTV's wont' always necessarily stay the same length and angle as the face of solid rotates in/out of the field of perception.

id have to look out for this stuff to.. i heard of price time vector but not wiht the arc...

hey JR on ur chart above on the scalp on eu i noticed u have 2 other lines that are 'mirror's of the current action. i noticed that they also reacted to the square's angles and resisted and supported too.

Updated euro trades. Notice how price nailed the end of the square right to the corner. This new method I came up with is magic like that. 80%-90% it will pick a corner. I've got it dialed in on the 5 min. Still trying to to work it out on other frames. The earlier trades stopped out on the trailing stop when price didn't reach the redline target. New entries on the trendline touch and the reversal at the end of the square.

Bumpa, the gray lines are a price envelope that help determine the range of the square.

I'm also showing the current square. I don't know always know the exact path price will take to get to end of the square, so right now I"m hoping price rises, I'll close out, and then price drops in to the end. But who knows. Just have to wait for the end of square to arrive.

Dear JR,
In your new method:
1. Is it correct that the price range is fixed? and determined by the envolope?
2. The length (time) is a function of the range?
3. Starting point is the first wave after a bigger wave?
many thanks,
I

Pretty close. The envelope does fluctuate a little, but not by much. The envelope is based on a lot of number crunching and dialing it in for the time period. I've experimented with the daily chart historically but haven't done much with it in real time or forward testing.

The length is a function of the range, but what I thought would be the better length ended up being different. But the different length has been more consistent so far.
