A successful Figure 2-3 W formation 12 T I M I N G S T R A T E G I E S F O R C O M M O D I T Y F U T U R E S M A R K E T S third test down that holds above both the first and the second lows provides additional confirmation that the price may have stopped going down and, in addition, that the line of least resistance now may be up. To identify a W formation on the line chart: 1. Look for a low at 4 on the chart that is no lower than 2, and ideally is enough above 2 so that there is no doubt that this new low really is higher.
Thus it could take four or five bars rather than three to complete a threebar close rule (rule 1, shown below). Sometimes it can take until the fourth or fifth bar to obtain a close in the top or bottom 25 percent of the bar’s range, thereby completing the signal. 3. When price closes in the middle of the range, the result is neutral. Assume the same closing designation as for the previous bar. 4. When an emerging pattern is violated, start counting again at the beginning of the formation with a new bar 1.
2. A close below the one at 3 completes an M formation. Reversing the pattern of an emerging bull market, there may be an upward retracement back at least to the breakdown level before a more sustained decline gets under way. Until there is a new bull market designation, don’t be fooled into thinking that a retracement means that the market is now going higher after all. There may be a retracement all the way back to the right-hand high of the M without violating its validity. In a confirmed bear market, the price stops at that level, and in a very weak market, it stops much below that level.
