bar by bar untill we doesn't get pivot high or pivot low...when we get our pivot go by pivots using small fil ...
Vineet,
You are right about PH and PL but initially suppose you have 2 bars -10am and 10.30am - making HH and HL but not taking out the moving filter. When we shift at 10:31am, the long stop order (with large filter) from 10am bar hi to 10.30am bar hi, do you keep the short stop order at 10am bar low less small filter or that also you shift to 10.30am bar low? Your step chart indicates that you move both the stops bar by bar – I have different view here.
This shifting of the short stop order is very tricky – and will depend on the difference between the two lows of the two bars. The first bar low will be preferred in most of the cases as it is the pivot low (at that moment) and going short below that is a high probable trade.
Now again if 11 am bar makes HH and HL the long stop order shifts to 11am bar hi but short remains at 10am bar low till a new PL is made which in 30 min time scenario is a rare thing but it happens.
So bar by bar shifting of stop orders is only in one direction, the other stop order remains at a pivot (and does not move bar by bar). This shifting can happen only when a new pivot is made.
The above does not of course take into consideration myriads of other real life situations, which may require some slight different handling but the basic idea remains as above.
Hope I am correct. Comments are welcome
