I don’t have any particular knowledge about Josh but I’m willing to bet that Coghlan Learned from Tim Morge.
Paul was a member of Market Geometry. So was Andy Maguire. Then they broke off to do their own thing.

Thanks Nukedel24 I think it would be great to start a section on median lines but I don't know how to go about doing that.

Really? Have you tried looking in properties? On some of mine I have to go-to line properties then change it.

Mod Schiff gets as much play as regular Andrews fork from what I can tell.

That was my geometry thread where I got hammered and told I was a fool. Basic forks and trend lines are a great tool. Chart attached is happening as we speak.

Thank you for responding to this thread, I have been studying at the market maps for about three months and I am learning quite a bit. I have watched quite a few webinars with Tim as the speaker and he seems to be an excellent teacher. And market maps a man named Shane Blankenship is the one doing the lessons his lessons OK but I believe Tim is a much better teacher. Hopefully in the near future I will start doing the lessons that Tim teaches but they're quite a bit more expensive. One question I have for you if you wouldn't mind me asking is do you think it's advisable to use
thinkorswim from TD Ameritrade or should I go with Ensign and a broker and separate data provider?
I personally do not like how the TOS charts feel and respond to your input, I kept trying to like them because I know its a popular platform. Ensign is supposed to be good, but I am on a trial of Sierra right now and I think their drawing tools and charting are excellent. The "lock" feature is nice, it will lock a drawn item so that it cannot be moved of shifted.

Tradingview does forks very well. So does motive wave. What ensign does right is the sliding parallels. They just make it faster by a step or two.

Just found new feature in Sierra. Let's say I have a nice price channel locked and drawn in. I can simply draw a line loosely with no thought and select "make parallel to recent line". This will instantly give me move able sliding parallels. Pretty nice, 24 hours with this program and it is getting better every hour.
