In the past I tried to count legs to predict turning points but it was too random. It worked sometimes but not enough to give me an edge. I pay attention to it sometimes when I'm in a trade. For...

Looks like you got some good entries Adamus. On another note, I had the same question regarding Al Brooks as well. He does speak of support and resistance but I haven't seen him specify what he uses.
