Another plot from the Tie Machine.

A False Start is a fresh, deeply overbought/oversold condition, with the money flow heavily lagging the stochastic reading.

Interpretation: the 120-sample stochastic has no room to give on the downside without the price compensating first (diving reference, yes).

The usual thing that tends to happen to momentum: the first deeply oversold/overbought (after an embedding at the other end) is toxic and sees a rejection.

 //sudden oversold Stoch w/o MFI = False Start
    if (iFractals(symbol,0,MODE_LOWER,i) && MFI14[i]>38 && stoch[ArrayMinimum(stoch,3,i)]<10 && Low[i]>iMA(symbol,0,712,0,MODE_SMA,PRICE_MEDIAN,i) )
    {
       ObjectCreate("Creepy"+IntegerToString(i),OBJ_VLINE,1, Time[i], 0);
           ObjectSet("Creepy"+IntegerToString(i),OBJPROP_COLOR,clrPurple );
           ObjectSet("Creepy"+IntegerToString(i),OBJPROP_WIDTH,8);
           ObjectSet("Creepy"+IntegerToString(i),OBJPROP_STYLE,STYLE_DOT);

    }
    
    
            //sudden overbought Stoch w/o MFI = False Start
    if (iFractals(symbol,0,MODE_UPPER,i) && MFI14[i]<62 && stoch[ArrayMaximum(stoch,3,i)]>90 && High[i]<iMA(symbol,0,712,0,MODE_SMA,PRICE_MEDIAN,i) )

If you see more false prints, the market is accommodating and can see a push past where it initially found resistance.

I also added a plot I call “end of tract”, for when the market is stuck between the upper and the lower guard rails. This zone +-45 around the 9=day EMA is pretty much neutral. I sometimes refer to this zone as neutral.

On a first pass, the filter goes like this:

I am now backed up by 200 tracks, thanks to Udio having no download option for the last two months.

While Depeche Mode is making cheeseball stuff,

Forgettable for sure. I have to fill in with what they should have done instead.

There’s more, as there is a new 101 album, but to make my point:

Achilles Dent – At The Same Old Door – If I did not know I made this, you could easily sell it to me as a cameo for an upcoming DM album.

Achilles Dent – Run To The Sun (Lymon Version) – Just as Eric Lymon would remix an unknown Dave Ganhan and the Soulsavers track.

Achilles Dent – Waiting For a Sign
