Such an interesting thread, in that it is so random.
Firstly, you are applying the idea of chaos theory wrong - chaos theory states that a small change in initial input can have large complex effects in a long term outcome, hence it renders long-term predictions impossible in general. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaos_theory
You are saying that by applying chaos theory, you can predict long-term direction of the market with high accuracy, which is the opposite of what chaos theory implies, hence your initial idea is already invalid.
Secondly, your method can be explained quite easily. You are simply looking at congestion and a break out.
1. Price congests in a price area which produces a triangle. You are simply using a composite profile to combine congestion areas and break out trend areas.
2. As each unit traded has exactly 1 buyer and 1 seller, the higher the congestion, the larger the amount of committed buyers and sellers there are at that specific price area.
3. Once price moves in a direction (for example, up) and the profile builds higher, the shorts in this congestion area stop out, the longs scale up and buy momentum increases - hence the break out into a trend.
4. Everyone is using some sort of S/R target, such as a naked POC, or previous high, or whatever and I can bet you a lot of people are using a N POC as a price target, so no surprises there.
How you represent the congestion areas doesn't matter, you can use 30min TPO's, 100 tick, 200 tick, 300 tick, volume, or whatever floats your boat. You just need something to represent the congestion.
This is done to death by volume and market profile, there is nothing new here, save for some fancy (or not fancy) words. Call it what it is - this is just VP/MP which a lot of people use already.
Also the fact he has a $200 book on Amazon says something to me. If you can predict with almost 100% accuracy, you would be a billionaire, why go through the trouble and sell a book for $200? You can probably make as much money as all book sales combined with 1 trade.
Would you be able to do one for Crude-CL and then people will see what you see as your method does work and those who say it doesn't, they dont understand it yet.
I don't trade crude due to time difference therefore no data source subscribed, however; if my programmer can implement the data then I can display CL charts from time to time
