The dynamic range

This is not a stand alone tool, so try combining this with the Dynamic Fibonacci Channel (DFC) using the same concepts as before. Please see Chart 6, which is the same 10-minute Bond chart as before.

The market was rising until Day A when the DFC Daily top band pushed prices back and flattened out in the 123-16 area. Note, at this point the Dynamic Pivot (DP) plus Dynamic Support 1 (DS1) plus Dynamic Support 2 were still pointing up but note the direction of the Dynamic Resistance 1 and Dynamic Resistance 2 were already pointing downwards. Could this be a warning?

Yes, I know on day E the prices have hit the bottom bands (the solid line) of the Daily DFC. But here we can see the difference. First, the DFC bottom band is still trending down and not yet leveled out. Second, all of the Dynamic Lines (daily) are still pointing down, roughly parallel to each other. Subtle, yes, but also dynamic.

Chart 7 (shown on page 8) shows the S&P 9- minte/45-minute/Daily. The market was rising until Day B (4/13), the DFC top band turned down gently, DR1 and DR2 point down, but DS1 and DS2 point up while the DP is slightly up. Does this look similar to Day B on Chart 6 (the 10-minute T-bonds)? On 4/ 14, Day C of the S&P chart, 4 of the 5 Dynamic Range lines point down. Also note that the Fixed Pivot was challenged twice and held. Check out this day on your program from the open to the close. What do you see when you track the market bar-by-bar?

On 4/14 there was a slight gap up on the opening and for the first four 9-minute bars the Dynamic Pivot was exactly on top of the Fixed Pivot. But on the fifth 9-minute bar the Dynamic Pivot dipped below the Fixed Pivot. Even though 2 bars rose back up to the Fixed Pivot line, the Dynamic Pivot stayed below the Fixed all day. Remember what I said earlier. The Fixed Pivot is where it should be by the projection based on yesterday’s range. But the Dynamic Pivot is where it really is today following every live tick. It is the difference between the two that gives us important information. It is very difficult to change direction intraday unless the geometry between the Fixed and the Dynamic Pivot changes.

Also the angular distance between the Fixed and the Dynamic lines acts as a beam for price direction. See how on chart 7, Day E (4/ 16) DS2 is already well above the fixed S2 and pointing upwards. DS1 is almost level and the other three are all down. Nevertheless, please note when a DS2 rises in this manner, it is often enough to stop the downside trend in its tracks, as it did this Friday. Does this mean a reversal is guaranteed?

No, but if you were short from Day B some profit taking is advisable. In future issues we will return to this concept with up to date charts. Issue 7, detailing the Ergodic Candlestick Oscillator will follow shortly.
