To better understand what an acceleration is, here is some finger practice.

An acceleration has 3 basic criteria.

• A 7 Sample money flow below 19 or above 76
• A 10-sample range of 46+ pips
• the push has to occur against the upper 30-sample BB or the 30 SMA

It goes without saying that a Thrust requires an acceleration beforehand.

Examples.

In the first example, the push happened against the Upper BB. In the second example, the push was against nothing (furthermore was outside the 240 BB as well), in the third example, the time factor was the main culprit. Within 10 hours it had to have a peak at the upper BB or the 30 SMA. A return to the 80 SMA is a disqualifier, not a start, but rather an end of something.

The idea behind the purple thingies is that an acceleration could occur against them, but if 9 hours later the price is still not outside the light gray band, you must buy.

Album #45 was the last one for this year, I promise.

I did not qualify to participate in the Robbins because they cap the leverage at 200. Mine is 500. I am at 261.4% for the year.
