Turtle Soup
A new extreme of the last twenty sessions, where the previous extreme was at least four sessions old. From Street Smarts, both sides, on the daily.
What it looks like on a chart
A horizontal line at the new extreme, drawn forward from the session that printed it.
Where the definitions disagree
The age of the predecessor is carried on the event because it is the half a reader can check, and the half most implementations quietly drop.
| Timeframe | Bars of history it reads | Settings | Events, last 30 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| D1 | 120 | 20-session extreme, predecessor at least 4 sessions old | 12 |
Not on M15, M30, H1, H4. It is defined in SESSIONS — twenty of them — which is D1.
