an occurrence time because both axes of the
chart are price dependent.

11. • After the trend is generated, forex trader may still
opt to trade against it. This is the scenario when
the signal isn't in agreement with the underlying
trend. There is high probability when you trade
following the patterns produced by the
underlying trend.
To do an assessment of a bullish market, a forex
trader should draw a line upwards at the angle of
45 degree starting from the point the previous
low was last recorded. Any signal above this point
would be ignored and buy signals can be taken.

12. • However, if you want to access a bearish market,
you will have to draw a line at 45 degrees going
downwards from the last preceding high point.
• Any signal that asks you to buy which is above the
line you have drawn should be ignored. Any
available sell signals can be traded on. Traders
should be keen to detail when doing this.

13. • If you are a forex trader and trades on the
Metatrader 4 trading platform, you will not
have access to point and figure charting

charting package. You can gain access to point
and figure charting by downloading the mt4
