Hope this helps...


Not that your drawing are wrong...
I'm just showing how much faster it is to find cones by focusing on breakouts:

I was blind...

But now I see...

Thank you Mr. One

Always appreciate getting schooled by you ;)

Yeah, what he said Katie... :P

Edit - by the way Sandra, you are spot on in your assessments and findings... keep going down that path and you will eventually see it's really that easy...

After your initial entry your 'chart window' expands with the current price and can only collapse to x (your stop).

Adding size moves 'x' closer to the current price (think trailing stop) to normalize risk and so
trading the large chart is simply placing and trailing a stop loss.

I explain things as they appear in my head, I am sure there is someone who can come up with a better example :)

The only difference between short term charts and long term charts is...PATIENCE!

wow, MO and others, thank you, i do believe I'm starting to understand. It's taking a huge mindshift change though. But i'm not letting it go, so 'inner me' kind of knows its the right thing to be taking on board. Thank you for continuing to bear with me with this. Very very much appreciated.

To give something back, here's an indicator i've modified that might be of interest. It's set to 240, have another set to 1440 which will sit on your chart at the same time if anyone's interested. Don't want to just be a 'user' here, want to give something back and will do my utmost to in due course.

Hugs Kate

fighting my way through this. Is this right? How do i get the confidence to trade it? What do others use as their 'line in the sand'? (LiS) Can see how it works in hindsight (I think), but how to make it work projecting forward? I'm know i'm missing something, really frustrating.
