Lynn,

Sorry. :) 

What I was referring to was the relationship between
various classical market patterns (triangles, Head and Shoulders,
wedges, channels etc. ) when used in conjunction with statistical
probabilities of a pattern's success under particular market conditions.

There are also short-term statistical set-ups that might consist of
only one or two bars.

The patterns are basically a reference point for the statistical
analysis. It's really more about "recognition", than about patterns
per se. One man's wedge, is another man's 5th Elliot wave...etc.

If you have a situation that historically has produced a particular
reaction from the underlying market 70% of the time, you can assume
some directional bias based on that.
