ST Da,

In Asian Paints also, TD sequential buy 13 is completed on 13th Dec. A Long signal will be active above 13th candle high. is it right?

Regards,

Your set up and countdown markings are correct.

Use a standard qualifier that after countdown day 10 , for 11,12 and 13 we need lower closes,meaning close of CD bar 12 should be less than close of CD bar 11...and so on. This will avoid getting a buy signal at higher levels and it gives 13 th CD bar at the low and after 13, the day when we have close >open, that is a buy signal.

Is amibroker a must to use TD? can they be used on normal charts available in kite/zerodha?

thanks

Dada is there a way to track sequential other then using ami AFL?

Sent from my AO5510 using Tapatalk

There are many qualifiers in sequential .The AFL does not consider these and hence AFL can be used to plot the set ups...but countdowns and exact fine tuning with qualifiers is best done manually as there is no AFL incorporating all qualifiers.

Amibroker is not a must. You can work with sequential with any price chart.Set ups are identified visually and then put the TDST line and the markings on the chart.

I used to track sequential on Metastock with the help of a crude utility I had made earlier.....it is easy.

ST Da,
Is there a list of qualifiers somewhere in TJ? IF not would you please give them? Thanks a lot.

DeMark books are best for learning. But DeMark language is difficult...for beginners there is a book by Jasson Pal...it is in easy language and good enough for basics.It is available in PDF form on the internet.
