Trend & Structure
The diagonal ruler
Connect two or more swing lows in an uptrend (highs in a downtrend) and extend. The third touch is the tradeable one: two points draw a line, three prove it.
Check yourself
Why is the third touch special?
- It's luckier
- Two touches define the line; the third validates it correct
- Lines expire after 3
You can draw a line through any two points. The market respecting it a third time makes it real.
