The twenty-second bar of congestion moved up nicely. !t had good momentum, and I thought to myself, "maybe this is it!" One more bar and I could place niy buy order in the market.

Well, it wasnt "it." I would have to be patient. The revers.sl bar hi-id broken the uptrend, i hatJ to rephrase my segment count.

I was s bit disappotnicd, bul my training and discipJiiie caused mo ;o draw the gmenrs and number them on the chart. If I got a hrcaicovJt of the liighcst high. I ouJd buy it. Otherwise i would still, by definition, be in congestion. However, it s getting fate in the day, I decided to trade only a five lot.

Once again prices proved to bo tn congestion. To show that the mari<et lad no idea of which way to go, prices formed a do i. Despite the fact I now had a shifted throe count to tfe upside, 1 wouldnt dare enter a trade that foiled to take out tfie fiighest fiigli.

The S&P was shIl in a trading range, I would wait to see if prices took out that highest high. My only other choice was if I could got a breakout of a three count to the short side before the market ciosed.

The next bar kiJIed the uptrend once again. I cou!d now 1) only three segments going down. Somotirries the S&P rnakcs a big rrine right at the end of the day. It was too late in [he day to catch it. There would not be enough bars to suit me.
