I'm also a bit confused. I feel like I've been spending too much time on this, but I've been trying to mark up charts based on what I understood from the slides, notes, and references.
From what I've learned, there seem to be several valid ways to count, so I thought it would be useful to practice marking charts and find the approach that works best for me when identifying entries, since finding good entries is the main goal.
This is what I've been doing so far, although I'm still not sure if I'm doing it correctly. I don't want to get stuck on this one topic for too long and would like to move on to the next concepts. However, before I do, I'd like to know whether my chart marking process is on the right track or if I'm misunderstanding something.
For reference, I've attached my notes and some of the charts I've been marking up. Since I'm still starting out, the chart markups may not be the best, as I'm still figuring out the easiest and most effective way to mark them.
Hey,
at Bar counting, for me there are two important things that you have to Understand and possible everything becomes clearer for you. These are Breakouts (Gaps) and wedges (spike&channel)
will the Breakout suceed or fail, is it a climatic reversal—wedge top or bottom. A wedge is usually a leg and 2 legs usually are a wedge too on a lower timeframe.
Its Not only the counting itself, what Charakter has the bar that i count, is it an exhaustion gap becoming a BO gap, or a measuring gap. These are different types of BO. A wedge is including all three of them. But where are you at the Moment, beginning middle or end of the Trend (wedge).
Its Not that complex; the Definition H1 or H2 isnt that important in you know where your are at the BO, in my opinion.
Best regards.
