Practical guides to reading and checking 9 and 13 counts

These notes are grouped by task: counting issues, market closes, using the app, and closed-pair replay. A scene without a recorded sitting is an example. None of them is a client desk or a legal approval.

Check the formula and closed bars before calling a missing label a bug

A missing label is a checklist, not a verdict. NineRadar’s display rule is not every Tongdaxin formula.

Report the session and count without turning it into a recommendation

This is an example of how to write a count down. It is not a record of a desk. Write the US session date. Do not write “today,” and do not use the letters CST for both Shanghai and New York.

A completed count is not a transaction instruction

The chat in this note is an example of a misreading, not a quoted conversation. A finished low-9 records nine comparisons. It does not record what to do next.

Counting issues

How a 9 fails, when labels appear, and what an equal close does.

Check the formula and closed bars before calling a missing label a bugSeparate the observed count from any portfolio decisionFind out why two charting tools show different countsCompare the same adjustment basis before comparing countsWhat must happen before count 8 becomes count 9A chart overlay and a scan list answer different questionsA price limit and a completed count are different conditionsDisplaying fewer labels does not change the counting formulaThe fund and its holdings use different price seriesA completed count is not a transaction instruction

Market closes

When a session is actually closed, including Hong Kong, China A-shares, and the US.

Count trading bars, not calendar daysThe same stock can have different counts on different timeframesKeep each market on its own confirmed session“Today” belongs to the listing’s trading sessionLunch is a pause, not the end of the daily barKeep the regular-session bar separate from after-hours pricesUse the New York session date, not a fixed 04:00 alarm

Using the app

Watchlist, empty lists, alerts, and wording examples. They are not a client desk.

Report the session and count without turning it into a recommendationYour first after-close count checkMake the watchlist easier to reviewAn example of factual wording, not legal approvalAn empty list can mean no events, incomplete data, or a restricted viewCheck the universe before interpreting the listChoose alerts without promising delivery or custom controls that do not existCheck accuracy and context before sharing a chartA cached alert is not a live quoteLeave enough context for the next reader to verify the count

Closed pairs

How a finished 9 is compared with a later close. Not a forecast.

Review finished events without scoring unfinished pairsUnderstand the sample before reading the percentageReproduce the pairing result step by step
