Jayson,So are you saying that t1 in my example below is not really
t1 until p exceeds the set % level,<FONT
color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2> Correct, Zig may draw the line but it may
also erase that line prior to hitting the % level
if this is so, can t1 even
be called trough(close,1,1) while p has not hit set % level?<SPAN

<FONT
face=Arial>An unconfirmed trough. The problem with zig is that
looking at a chart it is ALWAYS right, but while the chart is tracing a newleg
that leg is open to change. Do not try to back test a system based on
zig because the results will not reflect how trades
would develop in RT. It is a great tool
for fib studies but it can get you in a whole lot of trouble if you do not
understand how it works.
