After posting my first message on fdates, I thought I would get direct info
about the cycles so I contacted Rick R. and this was the explanation of the
weekly cycles and the 3 day rules..
Lynn
The basis of the 3-day rule was devised for those who seem dependant on
statistics. Many of the Fdates exceed the 3 day rule, but as cycles go, you
will have several markets that at times will swing every 3 days during
certain times of the year (volatility, etc.) and are picked up by the Fdate
program. Very difficult to separate a cycle pivot from a cycle pivot.
The unique advantage to the Fdates membership, however, is the weekly cycle
dates provided. Yes, that's right, WEEKLY dates. Whenever an Fdate falls
within a weekly trend change time window, it is provided in CAPS, thus
alerting the Fdate member of the time period that particular Fdate(s) falls
under. Now we are not talking about 3 days, but a move for a week or more
until the weekly trend changes again.
What confuses traders is the legal wording of the Fdates Agreement form.
Maybe some modification is in order, who knows? But the bottom line is that
the timing of Fdates are highly accurate and are much more substantial on
average then just picking small turns every 3 days. Again, that was for the
sake of statistics and has no bearing on trading them.
With the introduction of the weekly dates (Wdates), a trader can either
select to trade TOWARDS the next expected trend change, or wait until that
time is due to look to go in the new direction, narrowing ones entry based
on a daily Fdate date. If we are expecting a weekly swing bottom, for
example, then any Fdate swing bottom that would appear within that window
would be a good candidate to go with the new trend (certain techniques are
suggested to lower the risk of early entry before its time).
The Wdates are not yet mentioned in the Agreement because they are fairly
new. But the last few months have shown them to be quite reliable and
reports are coming in that they are quite profitable. Thus the service is
more than what I've been able to provide in print.
One last thing that should be noted is that commentary is provided to
provide some insight as to the cycle pivots (non-Fdates) that are showing up
under analysis, and how they may possibly confirm an upcoming Fdate. This
cycle analysis has also been used to confirm weekly dates with great
success.
(These were comments by Rick R. I am not afiliated with his trading service
nor do I subscribe to fdates. Lynn)
