For each of the secondary lines, you can select the
Color by clicking on the colored square to the right of the name(s). You can change the
Style to any of the defined values (Normal, Wide, Dashed, Dotted, Dash-Dot, Dash-Dot-Dot or Invisible) using the drop down list to the right of the color square.
Level 1 Upper refers to a parallel line drawn above the
Upper Median Line at a distance equal to the distance between the upper and central median lines.
Level 1 Lower is similar except that it is drawn below the
Lower Median Line. The
Level 2 lines are similar to the Level 1 Lines but are drawn at twice the distance. These lines are called
Warning Lines.
You can draw any
Additional Warning Lines you want by specifying a multiple of the distance between the upper and central median lines.
Positive multiples will cause lines to be drawn between the upper and central median lines the central median;
negative below. After you have draw an Andrews item,
you can adjust any of the Warning Lines by Ctrl-clicking and dragging them. If you have checked
Remove Fibonacci Levels by Ctrl-Checking on Them on the
Fibonacci tab of the
Options dialog, you can easily remove unwanted Warning Lines you have drawn by holding down the Ctrl key and clicking on the lines you do not want.
You can also add temporary
Warning Lines by using the
Parallel Trendline tool or by using the
Draw Parallel Trendline Here item from the menu. Simply select the
Pitchfork and create the
Parallel. The new
Parallel will be drawn as a
Warning Line (unless you have chosen
Automatically Extend in the
Parallel dialog).
Reaction Lines are lines drawn parallel to the
Base of the Pitchfork (the line connecting the three median lines; it also connects the second and third defining points of the Pitchfork). The length of the
Handle of the Pitchfork is used for spacing the reaction lines.
Trigger Lines are drawn from the first defining point (
A) through the other two defining points (
B and
C).
A
Pivot Zone is a rectangle whose left edge is at point
C and whose width is the greater of
C -
B and
B -
A (top and bottom are not significant).
