GT3RS (great car btw),

CNC waits for a confirmation of UT resumption before looking for the first entry and this is what he means by not gambling around the pivot. In this case it happens when the daily pivot starts heading upwards (resumption) and then it crosses above WP (uptrend confirmed) and then the entry can be taken there after a pullback and weakening of TMA. CNC correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks Jemook.

In the example above though, the DP isn't heading up where CC shows his entry.

At the 2nd white line you can see the DP starts 'stepping upwards'.

Yeah, but CC has shown his entry before that. The entry AFTER that is the one I pointed out...

Thanks, Jem.

Rob,
In the example, the HPTP had occurred (weakening momo, low alert, Fast line cross) but right at MP - all that was left before entry was the confirmation of an MP bounce or cross. Price crossing above DP and SMA(20) was enough for me in this example. If the HPTP had occurred and it was not near MP, I would have placed my pending order below SMA(20). The placement above DP (a resistance in this case) was enough additional space to allow for a confirmation.

So you wouldn't take the *possible* entry before that because it price hadn't crossed the DP?

It has nothing to do with the DP starting to move up right? Because it hadn't done by then.

Even though the initial post was very long, it seems there are many other things which you consider before taking a trade.

I DID take the probable entry ... just at a higher level for MP confirmation.

CTS trades both Retracements and Resumptions so DP direction has nothing to do with it.

Is that what all this back and forth is for - to find a way to express your personal suspicion? I'm sorry I can't help you with your unbelief. I'm no psychologist.

All the back and forth is simply to try to understand the strategy.

I can tell you're getting annoyed with my questions, but they are well intentioned and purely in the interests of learning. I'm not the only one who is struggling to understand it.....

I've obviously upset you, so I'll chalk it up to experience and call it a day with this. I hope you get your coding done.

Good luck everyone.

Rob,
I'm rarely unhappy (its difficult to be when you're making money :) ). I just have very little time to spare on dwelling on anything that appears frivolous. I'm a pretty busy guy.
