I like this "Heugabel". I look into Dologas Book.
It gives a clear mind for trading. Find SR Levels and so
on ...

Causality is the relationship between an event (the cause) and a second event (the effect), where the second event is a consequence of the first.

Most of these tools try to predict. I do use some of them like Market Profile, a bit of Pitchfork, sometimes a Fibonacci projection (but not as often as i used to do), the outer bands of a Keltner channel. Conventional levels of support/resistance, diagonal or median lines, Dow theory, action/reaction lines etc. I always try to have an open mind about these approach knowing each has its strength and weakness, that's it.
Even the desert draw its own lines, what's wrong with that ? :new:

Here are some examples:

Today's fork-casts ;-)

Last update for the ES:

Today's forecasts on the ES:

A star is born :

*************
ES - Overnight price action:
On this chart we can see yesterday's VALUE AREA HIGH but looking at price action right at this spot (magenta dotted line) we can anticipate a break but where could price go if it breaks this resistance ? That's where Pitchfork can be usefull even more so than Fibonacci in my opinion.

Edit at 10:35 EDT:

14:55 EDT on the ES:
Nothing to the left, what's left ? Pitchfork of course.

Some targets before regular session:


Price action was symmetrical today on the ES:

Here's a chart from Friday. I switched from a 987 volume chart to a 15 range chart.

No expert at pitchforks, but since price is already flying away from the top 100% line, doesn't this more or less invalidate the pitchfork?

I'm no expert either!! Just trying to learn as I go along.

You are right. Price has gone through the upper median line parallel. So I added the upper warning line to give some reference as to where price might go since there doesn't seem to be a hint of it turning around yet. Isn't this somewhat similar to making a reference target with fib projections?

An interesting article by Tim Morge about what to do with old pitchfork lines -
