Eg. Market spend 3 weeks falling and covers 1000 pips then 3 weeks rising covering 300 pips then 2 weeks falling covering 500 pips then 2 weeks rising covering 200 pips.
Same time rising and falling but not ranging

The time equivalency thing is strange when it comes to trends, you would normally think a market would spend more time falling than rising in a downtrend, but most of the time people are more excited and frenzied about the prices in the direction of trend, which causes price movement up/down to be more close to time equivalent in most trends...

what were looking at is that swing low may 2010 ,price just spent 8 hours on a possible tl ,price would have to move up first few hours of new day ,away from support ,to build confidence {image} {image} {image}

Hey Bones,

Already had chart, but took a look at your scenario. If repeats, I do not think your idea has to die with tl to be the same. I look monthly candle, can be done still. Tomorrow a good day for it.

The market is forming on hell of a flag... Well, I wouldn't call it a bear flag. I just call those volatility compressions. Same thing fundamentally as a triangle pattern.

The market can break out of them very violently, but if I was going to put my money on something... I would bet on a megaphone out of the EU open.

{quote} yes, I was thinking of currencies, it's all I trade
I was just thinking... Right now, if you strictly believed in T-Theory... Or a modified version of the theory like I do. You would not bother to buy any GU for two more weeks of trading, because it shouldn't be able to establish an uptrend until that much time passes.

I was just looking over the price action, and except for the strongest trending areas, the market has moved up/down with equivalent durations... If we assume that trend is close to sideways right now, like I do. There should be time mirroring again.

But anyway, I don't care... Market just needs to crash down through 1.4240 and we will have decent rallies again for sure.

You know I had to tweak my realized volatility formula for the GU a couple days ago because the off-hours volatility is so low compared to the other pairs. I wasn't measuring price pressure accurately.

EU markets have to be open before the GBP/USD really gets on the move most all of the time.

Bears drove for the stops, and that mini-crash attracted some additional sellers, and caused a little panic attack in some weak hand bulls who puked out.

Just read the tape.

LoL, I hate to say it, but people being impatient and buying GU without allowing the market to settle out and establish a bottoming pattern really deserved that right there. Well, actually, they deserve being driven down through the 1.4240 order pocket, but that may still be in the cards on the Claimant Count Change, PPI Data, or FOMC Data. So much data today...

I'm not complicating anything. I was just explaining to him what happened there.

We don't have any confirmation of real sellers coming in, yet...

Are you kidding me? Price has dropped from 1.45 all the way to 1.4250, 250 pips no real sellers? So please enlighten me, what is the definition of real sellers?
