Thank you Walt for your post.

Am I correct in assuming that you base a "Key Reversal" not on any number of
reversal bars or like patterns, but rather on a specific price point set by
a lead-in or lead-out bar in a previous SH or SL?? The reason I ask is
because I've seen several definitions of Key Reversal and it would be
helpful to understand this Symbol as you define it.

Best regards,

Gene Pope
