I plan to make an exploration for this setup (If there is no loop I can make it, hehe).

What is squeeze after all , a roadsign for definite 50/50 chance to move in either direction . A trader with his knowledge seizes the opportunity to take his bet on the outcome.

Got lucky with MCDOWELL zooms to 705.
Haile squeezyyy. Our entry 668 .

But its the general environment thats important.
If someone could start a thread how to interpret underlyeing conditions , as described by Livermore could be a great road map.
Rising tide lifts all boats.

Entry -- discretionary on indvidual choice . May be price retraces 50% of the BO candle . that may be a good entry. Todays Pick MCDOWELL . trying to load chart but sometimes its hard to do. http://www.flickr.com/photos/28762956@N03/3403304389/

Have you tried to tweek the Boris schlossberg parameters!!? I remember reading that he uses BB with Time period 20 and deviation 2 and another BB with same time period and Deviation 1.
Ofcourse not sure, shall post on confirming.

Thanks Bobby for your effort. To me it seems that you have posted something different form the BBands we are discussing here. The write up seems interesting. At one glance it went over my head , have to through it a bit slowly.
Thanks again.

Mr Karnani,

My 2 cents,in a sample population say cluster of closing Price of a Stock there is a Trend + Noise embedded in the Price.How do we know whether it has entered a Trending phase scientifically not subjectvely.Here enters Statistics,they use a Z-test on that sample data,there the basic premises is if the differences between the sample Mean and Population Mean is statistically Significant then we can conclude it is unlikely to have occurred by chance/randomly.
Finally, the z score is (the z-test results ) compared to a Z table, a table which contains the percent of area under the normal curve between the mean and the z score. Using this table will indicate whether the calculated z score is within the realm of CHANCE or if the z score is so different from the mean that the sample mean is unlikely to have happened by chance/RANDOMLY.
Now if you could make a Z-test on the Capabilities of Inditraders full time traders and find that when the National score is say 27 & Indi gives a result of 82 then you can conclude that the Trend is 100 % here.
Hope this explains.
