I know what you mean. When I look at some of Clivewaverider charts, my eyes go crosseyed.
Anyways, I removed some of the longerterm Bollinger bands.
All that is left is the core set of Bollinger Band 20 and Bollinger Band 60 and the 250EMA.
They are color coded per the legend. The BB20 upper and lower bands are blue, the midline is red.
The BB60 bands are purple with a blue midline.
Currently the price is approaching the BB20 midline again. The midline resistance will likely hold. Even if there is a spiker to the upper band, that spike will not last. The other timeframes are already ready to go down. This 5min is the only holdout and is going thru a weak upcycle. Once that finishes and the down cycle begins, all timeframes will then align to go to the downside.
I am used to the clutter on my charts because some of the info from that clutter is useful and because I focus mostly on what the Boll20 and Boll60 are doing on each timeframe.
this is my BB simple and clean parameter 50,2 time frame 1 hr

Note that when the headfake bar occur, it was at the confluence of the lower bands of the BB20 and BB60.
Your charts remind me of a line from the Matrix:
NEO: Do you always look at it encoded?
CYPHER: Have to. The image translators sort of work for the construct programs but there's way too much information to decode the Matrix. You get used to it, though. Your brain does the translating. I don't even see the code. All I see is blonde, brunette, and redhead

I don't know where you can read about "MyWave" but there is a educational material about Elliot Waves in DailyFX+ If you don't have live access you can apply for a demo version of DailyFX+ is you scroll down and look to the right of the DailyFX+
The 'MyWaves' is my own work and other than the adhoc explanations I put here, there is no other work written. If you look at my profile and run through the post, you will see them develop. I am just about getting my head around writing up the work in a proper workbook but I really need to do that with empirical validation and at least a decent literature review of the Elliot wave and Delta Wave influences that appear to be in there, although I sort of developed them as an anti thesis to that work really. I'll keep contributing here on the topic, so hopefully that will help and do please ask any questions you like. I am definitely not shy!!
30 mins and 4 hrs to go along..
9920-25 as indicated held out..
a break under 9890-95 signals a bigger fall coming on the USD.. A break higher to 9925 is well... USD to really shoot higher is what i see then...
GL..
Using a 8 hrs here instead of the 4 hrs I did earlier as getting a better looking pix on it..
9930-35 is a confirmation of a break attained by the USD on Thursday and hence if the price can stay higher to it or to above 9885, I be expecting a break higher and a higher USD subsequently..
However looking at tech play and patterns, the break higher has a lower probability then breaking lower..
Anyways 30 mins and 8 hrs to go with ...
Still think we can hit around 3230 prior to it heading lower....
GL...
Patience is virtue. The sooner we learn this all, sooner we can start walking to the bank. Good Luck to all of us
The trick is to wait the price meet ur limits, instead of one jumping in.. however scalps is a totally different scenario and is not everyone's cup of tea
Disclaimer: I'm not at all suggesting trades when by either posting the graphs, or my entries. You can view it, but in the end you have to use your own logic and approach, as there is no certainty about this uncertain market...
stryker here is the ice dollar index, it looks very similar to the fxcm one, they are both at critical levels. also a similar setup on the euro chart depending on how you draw things

Just wanted to let you know, I'm here! Thanks so much for sharing the thread You are so right!
I'm using a software program I think you would like ... that is, if you are interested in doing code again. I think is is more intuitive than QT. Send me a PM if you're interested.
Thanks again for sharing ... I'm already enjoying everyone's posts.
