Ouch, I know I'm not even done with the thread and I'm sorry for jumping out of turn, but man this one hurts at first read. That being said, it makes me believe I have seen the light and it is simplicity. Carry on.

Greetings DC, hope you are enjoying your hunting/shopping trip :O)

I was wondering if I could ask you about your trendlines. I know you said you sometime approximate them based on where the cross happens. But I wanted to know if you could discuss how you draw them more? Sometimes they appear based on the line chart, sometimes the bar chart or something else. Some were even inside of the lines like the attached.

Hi Lib ..Don't put too much importance on my trend lines ...they are hastily drawn and not meant to be exact " triggers " . The pattern is the important part .. have a great year .. :smt023

I guess if I had to put my thoughts into words , it would go something like this . When I see possible divergence l will be looking for a macd cross . then I will try to plot a trend line where I think the cross will happen . A 123 should be starting to take shape by now and this could be a good time to enter .That's the gist of it ,,of course there are many other things ( patterns ,z-lines ,doji boxes etc.)tucked back in the brain which may influence the decision .In the end it is always just a guess ...and if you have enough space you can be wrong many times before you have to be right ...........
