Single Prints

Single Prints finds the thin stretches a fast one-directional move leaves in a time-price distribution, the definitive clean implementation of single prints as standing reference zones. Each anchor period assembles its own TPO profile from bracket ranges; when it completes, every interior run of rows covered by exactly one bracket becomes a colored box, extended right until price auctions through it.

How to Trade the Single Prints?

• First retest: judge the reaction at the zone's edges: rejection keeps the imbalance intact, trading through begins the repair.
• Defended probe: a poke into a zone that closes back outside argues the original one-sided move is still being respected.
• Repair: once the whole range has been traded through, the box freezes as a muted ghost (or is removed), a retired level.
• Developing singles: dashed boxes mark initiative range extension inside the live session while it lasts.

Rising-bracket boxes are watched as potential support, falling-bracket boxes as resistance, beside the other auction and order-flow tools reading the same sessions.

Single Prints Settings

• Profile Anchor (default D): span of each profile. One session per profile is the classic frame.
• TPO Period (default 30): bracket duration; must be at or above the chart timeframe.
• Row Sizing (default Auto) with Auto Row Count (default 40) or Ticks Per Row (default 10): how the profile range is quantized into rows.
• Minimum Height (Rows) (default 1): discards runs spanning fewer rows than this.
• Developing Single Prints (default on): live-session singles, drawn dashed.
• Keep Repaired Zones (default on) and Maximum Zones (default 50): what stays on the chart and for how long.
• Fill Transparency (default 80): zone shading; borders draw more opaque.
