Walt,
While it is accepted that in your words "...the concept of the trend is a
valid logic.", I would question your examples of the patterns you reference
to support your contention that "patterns that balance mathematics and
symbolism may provide stronger trading results than patterns that do not."
In both examples you use a single outside bar as a defined swing pattern.
This contradicts any definition of a swing that I am aware of. In the S&P
example, the outside bar does not even represent a valid change in sentiment
since the close is near the low of the bar and in the direction of the down
trend. All it represents is probably some stop running during the day. Thus
if you eliminate this misrepresentation of a swing, your pattern does not
exist. Surly you have less questionable examples to support your contention.
Secondly, I question your definition of the the logic of a trend in it's
simplest form as being the progression of swing points. Wouldn't you call
the series of higher highs in an upward leg of a swing pattern as a simpler
definition of a trend?
Jim
