    So the first series date would be: January 1, 1977 looking at the entire year on weekly charts

    and the second date series date would be January 1, 1945 looking at the entire year on weekly charts

    and so on two more times?!!!!

    That seems really far back in history! Seems like the hardest part would be to get the data.

    I feel like i don't have this right at all. I am trying to keep my question to minimum untill i get thru the book but i thought maybe you could help one more time again and again. If your ever in Philly I'll take you out to diner!

    P>S> i notice you are using four hour bars on the weekly solutions, am i messing up by using houly bars instead? will that give me to much "noise" and therefor alter the predicted arrival times?

    There is not enough data to do long term on gbpusd on a 32 year time frame. cmellons charts have long term on them.

    There is no problem using hourly bars, but you are basicly looking for areas where the highs and lows occur, not really the ultimate high or low pip per swing.

    Ok, but i do have the time frames correct. I suppose once i get a good grasp of this inversion problem, i could do an LTD using four year periods. Now you've got me thinking about resources for back charts!

    The Delta Intermediate solution for gbpusd is already in the Delta book. I don't know what page, but it is in the section that explains the Intermediate
    time frame.
