Ah, my apologies... I did miss one....your are correct...that is a zline to go long.

There are no others.

I don't think keep changing chart is helping.

I'm intrigued. Why exactly is that not a CC closing below the line?
Thanks for the CC chart you posted btw, again I'm intrigued why if there are no more than those marked why that one to the top left isn't one?

Price will often slow when NEAR S/D

Traders go long

Then price moves to real S/D

In this pattern, price slows before and shortly after the breakout.

Same as FxFreak here: I'm a daily reader, but silent...

So here is my understanding of how it works...

Please let me know if I'm doing ok :oops:

Hope it will help others (in any case), and note that a few ZL are missing to avoid confusion (especially during the range).
You will also note that some ZL are active (because "the right color H1 bias candle" has close on the right side of the line) but price has not returned to the line yet.

Here is the confusion....

I remember when finding this nugget I had to read it over and over again to get it cemented in my head.

I would not have drawn a short bias zline there at all because the green, bullish, or up CC did not close BELOW the line.

Thus no line...

and your right...every time the CC shift...the lines would move....to another area....
