Another example of reset, getting the hang of it. I have not traded it but next time I see this I will.

Hello everyone. Thanks for all the kind words in the past and it's good to see the thread is still alive with a lot of people helping others learn their way. That's great as that is why started the thread in the first place. Thanks to all who contribute!

Seems like USDCAD is giving some problems. Perhaps if you check all the high time frames, you will find what you seek. The lower time frames have a lot of noise in them and this is kind of a "dirty" pattern. That dirt is magnified at the lower TF's.

Here's what I "see" on the H4 -

It seems like everyone has their noses pressed in close on the 15M TF on this one. To that I say, if you stand with your nose pressed to a tree in the forest, you will fail to see everything else around you....do not get married to a TF when trying to find a trade. If it is that hard to decide, then there are probably better selections elsewhere.

Hmm, I may see something I have not seen before.
So pins translate to W & M on lower tf.
Monthly and H4 are playing the same pattern. H4 being a mathryoshka doll.
H4 also has the pins at the same location, that translates to W & M on M15. M15 is also a mathryoshka doll.
And so on..
Only one question left for me to think about. Someone whose brain works faster can answer it before I can.
So the direction htf patterns will take is to be determined by how pa will play out on lfts, eg. on M15?
Just wonder, is this a sign of reset? Can we already know which way price intends to go? Cycle is down, pins point down. My previously posted pattern suggests down, if right. So I would be 100% sure of the direction without that tricky short trapping move.

Thanks!

I have to admit this is going to be one hell of an eye opener for you and many others. A true "once seen, it can not be unseen" moment! It's also brought a chuckle out of me when I saw the post. So many times, people ask questions and want me or others to "show" them the answer. All well and fine but most times, the person with the question learns nothing but the answer. Meaning the next time the questioner sees the same set of variables, it will leave him with the same question. I would prefer the person work out the answer with some help, or guidance. Otherwise, he will not learn what he needs to learn.

The W and M's on the LTF's create the RR tracks seen on the HTF's, which the pins are part of..... stated many times earlier..... useful in finding PH's and PL's for the cycle...

Every pattern seen on HTF charts has already been printed on the LTF charts for the pair....beginning at the "tick" level...not just once, but many times over....with deviations...

We have 10 time frames to view in the charts, counting the "tick" level....which means there are 10 sets of patterns, being "played" or repeated, across these 10 time frames....and they are all "playing" or printing the same patterns, only at different speeds, with slight variations...much like as if we took ten record players and placed the same record on each, but played them all at different speeds....same recorded pattern on the record presented at different speeds....

When these 10 records all start to play, at the same exact time, all of the patterns are at the exact same point and are in sync....but not for long due to the speed difference of each player...

At some rare point in time, all 10 of these records will synchronize once again, for a short period of time, before the speed differences separate them once again...

We know that price moves with direction and intent....intent can be either true or false intent..false to set traps and true when the fox runs...these are dirty patterns and there is much false intent here for reason...soon to be clear....

Everything that I have preached about repetitive patterns in this thread and others is on display, right here, right now...

Your dolls are more relative here than you know....you still have 6 other charts to open...other than the 15M, H4 and M...

Interesting that these revelations happen on Easter weekend.....have a happy Easter...

I can only agree with your way, even if it takes time to figure things out by ourselves. I also believe that even if we share something important, people still have to go through the learning experience and may not understand it, let alone trade it. Just my experience.. nearly everything has bee said on the forum, it still has taken ages to internalize and trade it.

So.. our job for the weekend is to deep-dive and identify the patterns within patterns and identify the pattern in its most advanced state (or maybe the most advanced one will be printed during slow moving asian session time).

Thousand thanks CJ!

Hi Guys,

Look at GBPJPY monthly chart since Oct 2016.

Look at GPYJPY daily chart since the 1st of March 2018.
At some rare point in time, all 10 of these records will synchronize once again, for a short period of time, before the speed differences separate them once again...
I am starting to see what I cannot unsee, However a great deal of interpretation needed from here. Like the record player playing at different speeds and finally coming into sync. Will have to monitor from here ;)

Thanks CJ.

Cheers
Leon

That is a pretty nice catch! Now the daily will serve as a scout to follow through the months.

Rambo, on many of your charts I can see patterns growing. They show up near tops/bottoms and grow up to be big boys as I call them. Smaller patterns to stretch out over time. Why spend so much time on finding similarities on different time frames? That patterns grow up and that they grow up in front of your eyes does not contradict the theory laid out here. Actually you can look at more than one TF on one single screen that way.
Another issue to me is that if you look at patterns within different tfs, you might just end up with the same information as when you look at the price cycle itself. The cycle or the chain of cycles is the pattern, is not it? If you go down to any tf, price still moves in 3s, so it is not the pattern but the cycles within cycles that gives us the previews. Well, I am just trying to understand how much easier trading gets by looking at these types of patterns. So I need to understand the easiest way of finding the patterns. Many do mapping but I have not been convinced yet by their way and I also believe that it should not be that time consuming and there should be a clear way of finding the patterns. Not because of laziness but because of the logic behind the way they are born and grow up. It is one thing to see pattern up to the monthly but another is to trade a chart that shows patterns while they are being born and are growing. Think of it in a way that we can not trade M15 by looking at M30 and up. We can only look at lower tfs to trade the higher ones. There is no contradiction, there can not be, the cycle gets most advanced on lower tfs. Also, it is not that when we look at M15 we look at M15 only. So this is why I want to know the essence of this stuff and the exact way of how it should be done most efficiently. But still learning, so I am flexible with these thoughts as well, willing to bend according to the final truth.
Your work and charts are excellent anyway! Thanks for sharing!
Now I go and grab a cup of nice wine, my brain needs a rinse after trying to crack it for 2 days.
So crack on guys, share your experience, be back tomorrow.
