Just started testing this "transient zones" i am testing this system differently but in that period last 5 months or so it seems to have 65 percent accuracy so all in all its seems interesting will trade tomorrow in live markets and see how it goes.
No one ever Discovered anything new by colouring inside the lines.

Hello all. I am fascinated about TZ and I found the powerful statement of ' 97% will be h-recurrent' is somewhat to be discussed. Because I found only ' 3% transient 'somewhat is true but i don't find the rest 97% all are H-recurrent.

sorry for my wordings which are a bit messy. Hopefully someone could point out my error.

I think I need to rectify my wordings above to be: the rest 97% is h-recurrent. But from the definition 2, in the 97% of h-recurrent bars, there is 33% of chance that the price XT(t0) won't be passed through during the NEXT h bars.

Why? For the price XT(t0) to be h-recurrent, there will be 3 situations:
1 the price has been passed through in the PREVIOUS h bars BUT NOT passed through in the next h bars; or
2 the price will be passed through in the NEXT h bars; or
3 the price has been passed through in the PREVIOUS h bars & will be passed through in the next h bars

so the overall max operable opportunity will be somewhat <(100-h)X97%X 67%/100 on each h-recurrent bar.

During thest the TZ indicator in MT 4 I find the bigger the h you set, the closer to 97% will the chance of being h-recurrent will get. However from the formula above it shows higher h value also means less opportunity you can profit from the powerful statement.

Hi! This model is very dynamic that makes it difficult to understand by just read the forum. Let me see if i can get it clear doing a "timelapse" of an case.

Please see this sequence...

Before the frame 1 there was a sequence similar ( i didn't the screen shots for this previous)
At frame 2 and 3, the price start a new drop and clean the previous transcendent zone. this make that zone recurrent??

A new zone appears instantaneously, with the size of frame 4.

Than the price continues dropping almost till the end of the box.

In that case (focus on frame 5) where you enter the order ?

Frame 6, confirmed.. the price returned very fast.

Thanks.

Love the frames

so, in frame 4 you have that very bottom box and you are saying where to enter...

Well for me you cannot catch the very bottom of the box unless you have preset your box width. In your example for me there is no bottom box because those prices are already bounced back (recurrent)


If you preset your box width let say 2pips. When price continues more than 2 pips down you can enter a buy starting from that 3rd pip or beyond.

So looking at the 2nd to last box on frame 4 you could have set your buy right at the break of the bottom of THAT box and exited as the prices cleared that box.
You would have a experienced a small DD and then profit.


The idea is to find the probability of H recurrence and trusting that


if you find that you have a 95% of a zone clearing and price is below that zone you will feel confidence in placing a buy wherever (in theory). To increase the probability you add in your trading rules and other tools that assist in gaining profit.

Trend
Time
Momentum
News
The moon cycle...Whatever you use LOL

Now you have to deal with risk/money management

There is probability of a loss and HUGE DD so what do you do?


Once you get the idea clear you can explore all types of scenarios of probability trading

Probability of 2 completed zones in a row?
Probability of completed zones at the same price levels?
Probability of completed zones at 00 levels

Probability of zones at 3am...LOL


Trade the rare event...

Trade after the rare event...

Trade after dbl rare events

So at the end of the day, TZ is just another way of guessing where possibly the bottoms or tops are.

Much of this is known so...
My perspective on understanding Eurusdd's process.

H= time in bars (Length)
K = (+/-) average deviation from zone (width) / gives average risk based on entry price
I like kiads idea of market profile entry (profile drying up on deviation gives entry towards TZ)
TZ not being the target more rather a magnet for trade direction. Grab a few pips and wait for the next

counter trend (recurrent) PTZ trading style can start 1 pip after break or at expected average deviation from left H
right H gives your probability (don't match Left and Right H numbers)
Longer the right H the better the clearing probability but don't trade to clear TZ. Get a few pips in the RZ area

Counter trend box breakout system
Box = left h
PTZ at break of box
betting on prices at/above break to become recurrent don't wait, enter for small pips or wait for market exhaustion above PTZ to trade back towards it for small pips.
Market exhaustion (CCI, RSI, Market profile, ZZ, ETC)

Entry closer to K (average deviation) gives least risk.

K and market exhaustion in combo is near risk free using stop right above K.

History of fractal small H CTZs can give a basis for measuring average K

So

The problem I see with the indicators created to see transient zones is that they include the wick . If an adjustment can be made such that the left side of the zone depends on the bar's close we can capture the zones that are based on the left H breakout bar.

To capture zones based on a constant price we can select or own constant pip value.

so basically a counter breakout strategy.

It may be valuable to look at the SSBO system to gauge recurrency probability for breaks from consolidation zones (CZs) and use the the prerequisite of a CZ prior to the creation of the PTZ as a filter.

I tried to understand what you are proposing but got lost. To me TZ's must include the wick as TZ's only deal with price, they have no reference to the close value of a bar.

Just because I dont get it doesnt mean you dont have a good idea. Hopefully you will be able to develop into something.

Best of luck.

This is because we use the candles as a tool to organize price. Segment it.


That's why the lowest timeframe gives the best opportunity for "seeing" if price has only printed once after the breakout of the left H bars which frame H recurrent prices. Unless a different indicator is made that is not based on bars we have to use the tool at hand (the 1 min bar) even though this to is inaccurate. How is a wick formed? Price reach a high/low and retrace (become Recurrent) before the close. That is why it's clear to me prices in the wick cannot be used. The possible H transient price or prices must have only printed once.


That why I said Box breakout system (SSBO) would be another good match because the box of Consolidated prices (Recurrent prices) is framed. The first pip that breaks out is a candidate as a H transient pip (price)

it is very unlikely to have large 5 pip zones unless a thrust of some sort has occurred like during news and such causing a quick burst of printed prices in one direction with NO retrace giving us time to jump in and ride the retrace back to clear those once possible rare (transient) prices . Not previous h transient zones, but the current one building.

Remember the Wormhole thread where the EA searched for a stochastic mismatch and if found that would be deemed a "wormhole" and after price deviated enough a trade towards clearing the problem was made. Same idea with TZ. It may just be a single price that is a possible H transient price. So this price is marked on a chart as a problem with x probability of being cleared before Right H completes. http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=511581

In fact the left H could be replaced by many things but bars may be the best for calculating probability statistics.

Previous day breaks
S/R breaks
News
ETC...

We just need a better "watcher" of price action after the break. A better watcher even than the 1 min time frame.


The PTZ is found between the breakout and the close in my thinking. That is if we are using the bar the capture it...


Understand?

A 1 pip Renko chart was suggested to see recurrent prices better. Sounds good!
