revising Dragon Style today...

The first trade was me mucking about with my order software trying to set a reversal order above the red line... pushed the wrong button then figured out how to do it and instead took the reversal on the break of 140.5...

Edit - to call this dragon style is a misnomer because he would have waited for the MZ / ZLine Rejection before going long...

Patience of on my list of to/do's in 2014

Why would I - that's exactly the same kind of entry I keep taking and then when it loses I'm told bias is the other way. So I take that to mean that bias is up until a red rb forms.

I think my conceptual model what i think it is, is wrong and it keeps flip flopping with in my mind.

Thanks

It depends on how you personaly define things BB - the full phrase was Close Above Close Below...A Line that YOU believe to be support or resistance. So read into that what you will.
You could say, if looking at bars that (say on daily), if price is going up, the last daily high to be closed over (you believed it to be resistance but it wasn't as another daily closed above it), then a daily bar closes below it....close over close under.

Or if you so choose you can do it with last highest open - last bar up closes over open, then a bar closes below it. Over under.

It all depends on what you beleive to be support and resistance...

or it could be like the lines Jal has drawn....

could be any damn line.....and any TF bar closing and under it.

There is no resistance until price closes lower than something.

I would avoid drawing lines altogether and simply ask your inner child what it sees.

Get a pint of liquor and keep sipping until it all makes sense; that is how I learned ;)

It always seems to be one line 1st.
followed by an RB for confirmation (if you need it)

stack...stack....stack...
