{quote} Yes, but by not trading the failures in the direction of the trend you are missing a lot of pips. If the left hand h completes but the right hand side breaks the H/L, you have a failed top/bottom transient zone that will then create a mid bar transient zone, in the direction of the trend. So why not trade the break? You don't need MA's or anything else on the chart because the mid bar TZ's show you the trend.
Sorry Hepsibah I don't fully understand what you are saying.

Surely trading with the trend is what we should be aiming for?

No worries, I'd hoped the example would help but I'm not good at explaining it. You will of course make money if you trade the pull back TZ's but I was just trying to say that you could make more if you traded in the direction of the mid bar TZ's as soon as they form because they give the direction of trend. The trend changes if either a previous mid bar TZ is taken out or a new mid bar TZ is formed in the opp direction. A mid bar TZ is formed when there is a gap between the LL on the lhs and the HH on the rhs (or vice versa).

No reason why you can't do both.

As long as you don't have a low in the next 14 bars that is lower than the highest high of the 15 bars to the left, you will have a mid bar TZ up and therefore a short term trend up. The bigger the h used, the more robust the trend should be so you will probably be pretty good using an h of 15.
