{quote} One does not exclude the other. If there isn't a PTECZ at the Major Swing Point, there is a TBCZ. Plot the TBCZ and you will find a PTECZ in the TBCZ on the smaller Tf: {image} {image} Anyway, for historical S/R Levels the TBCZ is as good as the PTECZ!
Thanks for the heads up on the TBCZ, something else to think about.

I can see where your confusion is.
The Bearish Trend PTECZ is the "Green" PTECZ Candle.
The Bullish Trend PTECZ is the "Red" PTECZ Candle.

The EURUSD MN chart:
The upper PTECZ you marked is the Bullish Candle Trend Ending PTECZ!
So, it applies to the Bullish retraces that took place.
It can apply to the current situation if Price is going Up.

But, the Price has not reached that level, so there is another PTECZ at
the current High level - where Price Broke down first from your MN PTECZ,
and retraced backu Up, there is the almost Doji Candle which the indicator can not catch.

The upper PTECZ you plotted may be important for a Longer Term Trade, if there is reason to go Long.
For the moment we need the current Levels, to see how Price is reacting to them.

Same stands for your lower MN PTECZ.
It is the Potential Short target.
It does not resemble the current situtation, the current Price Levels!

Here, you should find a historical PTECZ, even if it is very far!

The EURUSD W1 chart:
And, you have found the current Levels on the W1 chart.
Though, the W1 Candle Index 1 is the most current upper PTECZ!
If you extended it to the left, you would see it more clearly!

The EURUSD D1 chart:
The upper PTECZ is good, only it is the Bullish Trend Candle PTECZ!
It is after the Local Bullish Trend, even if it was 1 Day Long.
Same for the lower PTECZ!
it is the Bearish Trend Candle PTECZ!
It is after the Local Bearish Trend, even if it was 1 Day Long.

The EURUSD D1 chart:
Same as above!
PTECZs are correct, naming is incorrect!

On my charts the EURUSD analysis looks like this:

EURUSD MN:
Attached Image (click to enlarge)
Click to Enlarge Name: eurusdmonthly.png Size: 68 KB

The Price is retracing on a Bearish 2 Month's Trend.
This Month is likely to Close as a PTECZ as we have 2 more Market Days to Month Close.

Conclusions:
This could be a retrace on the Bearish Trend.
This could be the End of the Bearish Trend.
For Monthly Term investments one must look out for Price Break from the current MN PTECZ.
So, wait until Close of Month.
Watch PA for Break and retrace.

EURUSD W1:

This picture confirms the MN conclusions.
However, there are no Bullish Break Signals!
We could go Short at the Top of the Green MN PTECZ.
We could wait for Break Up from the Green MN PTECZ and retrace to go Long.

EURUSD D1:

Click to Enlarge Name: eurusddaily.png Size: 61 KB

The Daily chart suggests a Bearish Trend from the Top of the Green MN PTECZ.

EURUSD H4:

Click to Enlarge Name: eurusdh4.png Size: 59 KB

We can see the Bears even more clearly on the H4, with or without the help of TBCZ or PTECZ.

EURUSD H1:

Then, we can go closer, as close as we want.
Just keep in mind our earlier conclusions!

So, the next part is to find the reasonable Short Target for EURUSD.
We see the recent strong rejection at some Support.
The Long Wick or Shadow. It is about 70+ Pips from current Price Level.
The corresponding PTECZ on Bearish Trend is H4 Candle Index 199.
Thus, we have a very reasonable Short Target for EURUSD Day Trading!

Because it is the Bearish Trend PTECZ.
It is the PTECZ potentially ending the Bearish Trend!
When it first appeared, it was the Potentially Trend Ending Consolidation Zone. (the Bearish Trend)

That is the whole PTECZ idea!
When the PTECZ first appears, we do not know if it is the Ending or Not?

It is the idea!

Not the Direction of the PTECZ!
The Direction of the Trend the PTECZ is Ending!

{quote} Do the analysis. Post it. I will comment. Until you do the analysis, you know nothing!
Thanks for your feedback.
For my analysis, have chosen AUDJPY as the pair probably most suitable to my timezone in the Asian Session.
Mn: Bullish run is entering PTecz from high last seen in 2007.

W1: Feb consolidation now a support level.
D1: Rejection from PTECZ Index=4.

H4: Rejection from PTecZ Index=14
H1:Bullish retrace from Ptecz=5 losing momentum and reenter the CZ.

Rejection from D1 and H4 and H1 turnaround appear to favour a bearish move.
Will look for entry on break of next PTECZ on M30/M15.

Yes , thats what i meant , it looks to me like it is a bullish candle that may potentiallly end the bearish trend , and should be marked as a PTECZ - have i still got this wrong ?
I feel sure i understand the general concept,

Lord, you are sick "globalism"!!!. In Russia we have a saying, "the farther into the forest, the more wood." everything is very simple don't have to build levels. from month to month.I agree with ejiexe. don't build levels ranging from extremes month, week and so on. you can get messy. head range. There are All in the indicator Custom_Zone_Candle.!!! You forgot about the Price Action .? Pin Bars, Inside Bars, DBHLC-DBLHC, BEOB-BUOB and other from level-it must be. it's a topic branch.

Naming is important, after all!
The Bearish Trend PTECZ is the "Green" PTECZ Candle.
The Bullish Trend PTECZ is the "Red" PTECZ Candle.
And this is what we must stick to!

There are 2 types of PTECZs:
The Bearish Trend PTECZ
The Bullish Trend PTECZ

All other naming is getting people confused!

I do not like your "English".

In Poland we have the same saying. Russian language and Polish language have many things similar.
There are Russisms in the Polish language, and there are Polishisms in the Russian language.

Yes, the Zone Candle is my own invention!
I invented the Zone Candle and the Trading Strategy with the Zone Candle.
I wrote the Custom_Zone_Candle indicator.

I am happy that you can use this simple strategy with great effects.

However, please allow me and others to do it their way.
Some of us like the PTECZ way better, we like more complicated ways.

You do it your way!

Post your results, your trades, we are happy to see them!

I, do it my way!

I am not telling you that you must do it this or that way!

I do not wish to put you on my ignore list, but words like "sick"
give me enough reason to do it!

I am only warning you now!

PS.
If you have such good command of Price Action,
you do not need my PTECZ,
you do not need my Zone Candle!

In Russia we have a saying, "the farther into the forest, the more wood."
"The deeper into the forest, the more trees."

But, if I go with you into the forest, you could give me wood!
