There are no guarantees except that the target will move and the path to the
target will adjust as the target moves. Eventually they coincide. Its part
history and part probability and that is about as close as a trader can get.
The uncertainty principle assures that the target will move if it were
known. No doubt there are vested interests who would like to see a specific
price or zone to minimize their liability and maximize their profitability
but there are a lot of players now and some are big enough to move a stock
or half a dozen stocks or fewer and thus an index. The theory in the beasty
indicator is that clues are left in the path of price and the future is seen
to some degree by implied volatility. In most cases the target zone narrows
as expirtion approaches.
