The foundation of all technical analysis. The definition of trend and six core tenets, read through the lens of crowd psychology.

The single most important concept in technical analysis. The 'walls' where price stalls, bounces, and swaps roles — explained through order clustering and crowd psychology.

Pullback levels drawn from the golden ratio. Why so many participants watch the same numbers, and what the reflexivity of that fact means.

Wilder's classic volatility measure. Not a read on the crowd's mood, but on the volume of its argument.

A modified candlestick built from averaged OHLC values. It suppresses noise so trend persistence stands out, and reads momentum from body color streaks and the presence or absence of wicks.

Projecting price beyond the original swing. Reading how far a new leg has room to run, in the language of supply, demand, and crowd fatigue.

A floor-trader's calculation that served as the centre of gravity for the day. A reflexive tool that works because everyone sees the same levels.

A chart that throws away the time axis and adds a brick only when price moves a fixed amount. Daily wobble is discarded, leaving only trend and the color flip that marks a reversal.

A drawing tool that builds a median line and two parallel tines from three pivots. It maps a trend channel and reads price's pull back toward the center.

Diagonal support/resistance lines fanned from two swing points, plus vertical time lines spaced by the Fibonacci sequence. A practical read on dividing both price and time by Fibonacci ratios.

A framework reading the market as five impulse waves and three corrective waves. Understood not as prediction, but as the discipline of asking where the crowd stands in its emotional cycle.

A classic chart that throws away time and volume, recording price itself with columns of X (up) and O (down). A practical look at box size, reversals, double-top breaks, and price counts.
