Thats an intresting question, how do you trade that then, if the point falls on the weekend. Will the market react before or will the effect build up and show itself on the Monday? Do you fib projection in both calender days and traded days and kinda guess somewhere in the middle?
Never use Delta to make trade decisions! I have made that mistake many times. Use it more of a confirming tool or to have a general bias to trade on.

Why criticize those methods you do not understand? There are thousands of ways to trade the market, but as individuals, each of us only have the ability to use a few of them successfully. To assume that since you do not understand the Delta Phenomenon means that there is no value in it does not mean that others will not be able to use it successfully in their approach to trading. Keeping an open mind is the only way to improve as a trader. Assuming that you have reached the top of your ability means that the only way to go is down.

hahaha yeah thats right . i have climbed the mountain looks like i will have to jump to get down . lol but infact he had made so many wrong decisions with delta thats why i was critisicing it . delta for day trading is useless and thats a fact , however if u want to trade long term style then i have no opinion

looks like the support was strong enough to pull the pound . i am long at 151 . i wish it breaks the resitance and rockets to 15350 atleast .

To assume that what works or doesn't work for you applies to all traders shows that you have not climbed a mountain but just taken the first step on your path. If you have no opinion, then perhaps you shouldn't post one in the forum. I like the fact that traders are bringing new ideas to these forums. We are all here to improve and learn new ways of seeing the markets. Criticizing those new ideas is not what this forum is about.

GBP USD - Delta Update

It's getting quite late for ITD 9 if it has not yet arrived, and thus I am not comfortable. Perhaps iITD 9 has already arrived and I ignore it!

Upon looking at price action, I am now seriously considering this attached Delta count. If 5260 is broken in the next few days, I will be using the attached Delta chart as my primary count. ITD 11 will be due at the end of May.

There we go... new high made. This would be my Delta count, and ITD 11 high is due around May 27. Price target maybe at least 1.57XX
