A small idea that I thought might only take 20 minutes to walk through turned into another long stroll in the forest. Out the other end we've returned with some valuable items. The trade idea proposed was since taken on the audnzd pair giving us some evidence. One trade is hardly enough data to draw and conclusions from but it is a good sign. This trade is up around $1800 when I took half off.
Some general conclusions here are as follows. Trend lines are necessary for rotation. Rotation does not exist within the bounds of 1st pullbacks. Momentum is the only influence we ought to acknowledge within this space. Beyond the 1st trend line break we obtain probability and only then do patterns emerge as we know them. Some patterns only acquire meaning through rotation. The s-wave derives meaning from both spaces.
This new trade category is unnamed currently along with the pennant type divergence. These two objects will be named shortly.

Digesting ideas of a fundamentally different nature takes time. Often our approaches will be intrinsically wrong, which prevents any real understanding from taking root. Just by starting to talk out some concepts immediately I was struck by what perceptual content I was bringing over with me and using that was only getting in the way of clear vision. Those deeper assumptions were causality, symmetry and the possibility of knowing anything ahead of time. Putting aside these three filters the true nature and form of the ideas was allowed to take shape as I walked around the territory. A shape I am sure wouldn't have been revealed had I notice recognized what deeper perceptual filters I was bringing. What perceptual filters I suppose I considered to be universal. Or at the very least we can say all my behavior would align with such a statement but an equally apt description would be to just say I was unconscious so I brought it with me everywhere and applied it to everything.
In the upload and write up I've realized some small additions and corrections I would make to the state of my thinking as I left it. Those will have to wait. Good Trading.

A new framework for organising our ideas is discussed today. No analysis. The interplay between momentum and rotation, our top down and bottom up perspectives and all the qualities intrinsic to either side are continuing to grow out vines in each others direction. There is a smoothness to the spectrum that we can now begin to feel as we move from one side to the other. The rigid binary resolution and then the original 4 categories has split into a quantity that we're taking as infinite. The distinct forms each pattern takes as it transforms over the spectrum would be an arbitrary decision and for myself currently to even loosely mark any number of them would only reduce the resolution of my understanding. There is one argument for doing so and that would be to reduce and limit the complexity to smaller more manageable amounts. This might really be a significant concern but currently it doesn't appear to be a problem. If we encounter situations where the complexity is beyond our ability to process we can always go back and mark out multiple distinct points on the spectrum to focus on.
Good Trading.
