I've often wondered which fork you concentrate on? As you mentioned it is possible to clutter a chart with multiple forks (or S&R lines for that matter) without trying too hard. Do you work from the most recent (ie. smallest) fork to the largest (just guessing of course)?
Looking at your last post with the Bean contract pic, where in you highlight a green fork suggesting resistance, do you disregard the red line that you have drawn in just below today's low, or do you enter below the red line? If the green line holds do you look at the lower green lines as support targets or do you consider other lines that might "get in the way" as well?
Just curious. Always interested in how other folks "see" the markets.
