Some to laugh at

Consider it is a live being. It was thinking that it cleared an upper zone and run towards lower one then it realized that upper one wasn't yet cleared. it was angry and run quickly to fix it ... what an animal...

Yes!

This is the kind of behaviour I started realising once I could visibly see the zones. That's why I prioritise born zones from unborn ones.
I mean look at that beast! LOL

And the daily leg.... it looks nicer now

however there is still something to target up if I'm not in the complete darkness

But probably not earler than after some 630 minutes

I think that it's a major psychological barrier that may not be breached.
I changed my mind about this looking at the 4H and Daily chart.

Hi EU. Appreciate your sharing this info. Been trying many different Osc. approaches with some success. However adding the extreme spike with the way you have described using it, does offer up new territory (for me) to explore. Thank You!

Over a year ago, while studying the symphonie method here on FF, I was fortunate enough to be paying attention when some replacement indies were reworked for that method. Of course the hard core followers pooh poohed this guys efforts as not being pure. After lmao I tried to just tell why I thought the replacements should be considered. Zero impact. Oh well!

The original indies were not only major resource hogs due to many footprints adding on code and never eliminating what was no longer needed, but also gave different readings on different comp & even using the very same brokers charts, the readings did not match up. Then along comes member Comer. He is the responsible party for the re-writes. And his Extreme Spike re-do, has the most useful ability to mark spikes that went away, using dots as place holders.

blah blah blah. Here it is along with pdf on how it was cleaned up, settings, and tweak suggestions. btw you can set it to not repaint however you then end up with quite late signals:

I also see my other brother is on this thread as well...

{quote} I trade using only the semafor for direction and your zigzag/stochastic mismatches for price disimilarities to return to. It is clean, simple and profitable for me and I thank you hugely for it . I currently have only one price mismatch awaiting clearance which is at 1.33146 and was formed by both M1 and M15 at 9.30-9.41 this morning (Alpari time). i.e. stoch reached zero but was not matched by a new semafor. This target has served me very well today but, respecting your judgement that 1.3310 is the intermediate bottom (and the fact that...
It Seems your confidence was well founded hepsibah..( albeit a scary journey..lol)...Are there any others trading in a similar fashion with hepsibah? I myself am watching 1.3426.. Looks like that will be a bit of a journey.

The Extreme Spike that you mention reminds me of another indicator that I have already seen (See attachment). I believe they are basically the same thing.

Thanks a lot for sharing. I hope I will be contributing some soon.

Another forecast for those who are interested: next dissimilarity will start on 07.22. 15:45 GMT. And it will be a longer one, for around 10-11 hours.
Hi Inorbi,
at post #3487, you can predict WHEN the next similarity will begin. Can you explain more about this? Or can you point me where I can learn about this?

Smallcat,

I believe this is your answer


Quoting lnorbi
Gents, I also spent some time with Excel and math, studying what we are exactly looking at. I tend to believe, based on my investigations, that the ONLY thing that can cause dissimilarity is a change in the lowest/highest price for the last 300 bars. In other words, the dissimilarity we see today reflects changes from 300 bars back. Whatever price does at the point of dissimilarity is simply irrelevant. I'm currently doing simulations in Excel / Matlab to prove it, and I'm yet to find a way to cause dissimilarity by changing current price. EDIT:...

Hi Almo,
Thanks for your information. Looking at 300 bars is looking for the DIS-similarity, it looks for lowest/highest among these 300 bars. Inorbi wrote something else, after the Dis-similarity appear, he can predict WHEN (the time of the Similarity bar) will appear.

After read the thread again and again, i found that Ralome has wrote something here: http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?p=6844365#post6844365

Given candles period is 300, candle #1 is oldest, candle #300 is current. Highest high of all 300 candles is HH, lowest low of all 300 candles is LL.

Candle #301 will be a dissimilarity candle if:

1. Candle #1 had the LL.

2. Candle #1 had the HH.
3. Candle #301 goes higher than HH.
4. Candle #301 goes lower than LL.

Dissimilarity ends if NONE of the above happens in 24 candles. If ANY of the above happens, you have to wait 24 candles again from that point....

I think may be it's the answer ..... if i'm not wrong, we must wait for 24 candles, begin from the DS bar => then we will know exactly WHEN (time and the bar) of Similarity bar .... Or may be I misunderstand it ?????

Pay attention to the 1EMA and 1.32203
Quoting Eurusdd
a value closer to 0.1 and eurusd is free to go above her. 0.40 now. a lot of people trade resistance/support levels but they can't really figure out how long a given level will hold strong and what is the rate of resistance/support depreciation!

Quoting Eurusdd
The 1EMA is key! during the resistance period, the 1ema is supposed to stay above/below the number.
Quoting Eurusdd
eurusd is NOW free to go through!!! Strength of 1.32203 @ 0.06.
Hi all,
Do i missed the explanation about "price level strength" here ? Anybody know, has Eurusdd explained how to calculate this ? I can not find that post
Thanks

Nope it was not explained how price level strength is calculated. His system is more than just similarity. It includes revolution and others. The price level strength is not part of the similarity chapter.

The bigger question is what do you do when dissimilarity ends?

Please correct me if I'm wrong : If DIS-similarity ends => we expect it's begin of Similarity candle (is this right ??)
So, it's the time to trade. Because the price will go to where the DIS-similarity appear ...
If we know WHEN the similarity will begin, then we must not seat in front of computer all the time ....
