And that is exactly what unfolded, just as the Wave 4 low was coming in on the 5min NQ chart, we had an automatic TS3 (abc correction) buy on the 3min Chart. This got you long just before the sharp rally !

Standard traders would have used the ATRStop as the STF strength band was exceeded for a nice +8R Profit (approx and ignoring slippage and commission). But the Advanced Traders among you will have noticed that the rally bumped right into the higher DP resistance zone. At that time you were sitting on a massive +10.5R Profit, so what was the sensible thing to do ? Exactly, look to tighten stops and protect this massive profit....

But do you all see how this TS3 buy was logical and “fitted in” with the 5min chart and as such was one that you all should have caught. And what a brilliant trade it was :-)

And what usually comes after a Wave 3 ?

Exactly a Wave (4) correction..........

As you can see, this was found on the 5min chart, so time to go back to the 3min chart to see whether this Wave 4 correcting had “sub divided” into a lesser degree abc.,

As I suggested in the chart in the last post, once a market rallies beyond the typical Wave C WPT, then that move should be considered more “impulsive” rather than “corrective”. A quick look at the 5min chart conforms this where the rally is found as a Wave 3.

A look at the 3min NQ

Hi Everybody,

Today I would like to look at the NQ, particularly on the 3min chart to see how it evolved during the day yesterday.

First let’s start with the initial decline, notice how that stopped right at the extended Wave 3 WPT, this nailed the low of the day for you !

Then we had a good looking TS3 sell, and yes (after the initial sharp fall) the chart looked bearish, so taking this sell was OK. However, this was stopped out for a -1R loss. Yes, we all know loses can and do happen, but this loss was kept small and under control, so you were doing your job well here.

But, it is what happened next that I would like to focus on............ particularly how you view a market that rallies past the typical wave C WPT, what does this mean ?

Onto the next post,

Steve
