originally, i observed on charts that markets had a tendency to
bottom/top once a series of 8 or 9(or more) consecutive closes less
than/greater than the close 4 days earlier occurred. obviously, "8" is
fibonacci and i inititally used that but 9 worked better and, as someone
brought to my attention later 9 "4 versus 4 " is fibonacci as well, i.e.
9 + 4 =13. This was all done visually over 22 years ago. someimes
markets resumed trends after nine and others continued and that's where
countdown comes in--13 closes versus low/high 2 ago. variations can be
applied other than close verus high/low such as low/high versus low/high
2 ago. 

also important is the lowest price(true low) of the setup-up or highest
high of setup down. these serve as trend turning points and provide
clues as to whether markets reverse after completion of setup or
continues through countdown.

i know this can be computerized by all variables must be included and
the exits must be established. intentionally, i have left this endeavor
to the users because i believe that my settings may not necessarily be
the best. i had hoped that others would stumble into better settings and
save me the time. 

all in all, i have created indicators and not turn-key systems because
they are not necessarily the optimum.
