Update on my TV
I picked up a TCL brand 4K TV, added a 2TB WD USB drive to it and made it the main Google TV storage device.
After some experimenting with sideloading I eventually went with my Proton VPN + TiviMate + Xstream codes + Bitdefender.
I now get all the live sport, tv, movies + series on UHD + FHD
My viewing entertainment is on another level to say the least and I am as happy as a pig in shit with the new setup.
Best,

It is neither a great nor original revelation that this kind of thing gets many people using XU stumped.

This is an issue with trading in general of course, not unique to this system: is it a retracement or a reversal?

Apart from the usual blah blah about higher timeframes and D1 open lines which can be similarly ambiguous, is there any reason (within the XU framework) to "ignore" the Green SEMA 3 (Star) and blue candle colour in the first image and go short off the red Big Dot?

Normally I would just move on and say "oh, well, that was not the setup", and wait for the next, but it does seem like an awful lot of good points going begging.
Tie yourself to the mast, if you must.

For me that is the problem with Xard system. If you want to follow trend you should ignore sema 3 and treat it as big dot until it stops but Xard in screenshots always mark from arrows and to wait for second big dot. I never understood why he want to trade like this.

Heresy, perhaps: Removing Sema 3 and 4 is something I've had success with, though am currently looking at "shifting" the Sema periods, so Sema 3 becomes 43, , Sema 2 becomes 11 and so on, and trade as per the "normal rules".

You do of course come up against the same issue, but it definitely "speeds up" the process and many of the missed points can be had.

(Why the sema periods keep changing from version to version is another discussion)
