Eurusdd, once you said you'd vouch for me twice if that was possible - I feel the same way now
Even if you fall on your face, you're still moving forward.

To others: The forecast indy will be delayed a bit, I'm sick of bugfinding for today.

THE SIMILARITY PRINCIPLE!!! Let X(n) be a random/pseudo-random process that satisfies - certain well-defined conditions (known as the fractal-conditions). Let F and G be functions that satisfy the Black-conditions and agree almost surely on the set {X(n)| n>0}. Then the set of values on which F and G do not agree is a predictor of the process. One has to construct F and G, continuously as the process evolves or use the back-door approach to extend F and G. This is the hardest part!!! If you can construct good candidates for F & G, then you are close!!!...

Lol. Ok pals:

Let us see if this thing will fail us! 1.31538 is the first number to target and then after a little reversal, we will go for 1.32083. By Friday - we will TALK again!!!

Trade well and KEEP your eyes pointing up!!!

The 1.32083 target does not make sense Eurusdd unless you are targeting the swing high from the 10th of July? I would have thought that when EURUSD hit 1.3174 on the 17th of July we took out the problem that dissimilarity had created on the 10th of July where the highest candle to close in dissimilarity closed at 1.31743? So I am confused as to where this 1.32083 figure comes from?

Yes, the information presented is not as straight forward as what we might be used to because this it FORCES YOU TO THINK. If you seek to understand this stuff you need to read stuff over and over in order to do so and that gives you reinforcement. As you ponder over stuff it also FORCES YOU TO EXPERIMENT. This whole thing is centered not just on similarity it also about changing PERSPECTIVE, seeing things in a different light. Once you get that...
As I said earlier in this thread, what I really like with this thread is that if forces you to think and experiment.
So I get your point. People should plow through every post of this thread and not get spoon-fed from my summary!
I still have to clarify though, that the intension with the document was NOT to make a copy of Eurusdd´s thread. It was meant to be a useful tool for going back and reading stuff.
So therefore I could at least recommend everyone and especially the newcomers to read the thread through before reading my summary list.
Because its really just a list with posts I find valuable.

Hi Folks !

From my point of view EURUSDD is correct in warning to wait 1.3203 level to be cleared out first before
the majpr dive begins........

I have a different trading strategy but the core principles presented here make sense....

There is a huge bunch of orders clustered around this level....

Happy trading

Bernhard

If they are the same, what is these benefit of replacing ZZ with SEMAOR? I have not read the using of or seen pics containing more than one ZZ.

Quoting Eurusdd
{quote} I already explained that they are the same and I showed Madmoney how to replace the ZZ with Semafor. The post is in the thread!! SEMAFOR is three-ZZ-in-one! If you want one zigzag, ie with setting 24, simply make all settings for semafor equal to 24. {image} Blue is semafor, white is zz. This is why I said it is very important we know how to use indicators properly.

The benefit is having 3 diff settings available on semaphor instead of putting 3 ZZs on chart. Small dot = warning, small dot + medium dot = get ready, small dot+medium dot+large dot=ZZ top/bot

Hmm so it has 2 main values...period and Dev_step.......so value for period should be the same for all 3 i.e 300 but the Dev-step values are different and serve as a kind of sensitivity filter and if I get a signal where all 3 dots paints it a high probility signal. Is this the working principle? Please advise

Bingo! But you can set 3 diff periods. Play with it!

i am still a bit confused. I have read the entire thread, and live trade using stoch, BB, and ZZ on 15 in time frame. I realize that there are 3 or 4 different methods based upon SIM/DS and many use different aspects to trade. is the 3 ZZs on a chart for MTF añalysis, and thus combined into 1 view by SEMAFOR? I have read the thread and just done a search. I still have not seen the use of 3ZZ on the same chart. If you have an example to post I would be very grateful.

I have my MT4 charts set up and I'm now setting up prorealtime charts (just out of mild interest really and to see how brokers differ, also to optimise and do backtests) but i do not have the PRT code for the cycle identifier. Can anyone help. I have a tiny .01 long left on this account from friday after closing most of it in profit. I am looking forward to watching what happens later!

EDIT ...I have changed lower stoch values to 5,3,3 which work better
