Wyckoff Analysis:
First consolidation range showed clear volume increase to show us selling cimax. Volume then decreased alongside change of character on the rally - suggesting a SOS (sign of strength) in an accumulation range. This is confirmed with a spring that has the peak volume of the range. I entered long on the test after the spring.
Towards the end of the first markup, price then stopped rallying, dropped slightly and then re-rallied without breaking the previous peak, alongside a non-significant increase in volume this suggested a re-accumulation range is forming, and if not, at the very least a new consolidation range. Note that this time, it is non-horizontal/downward/weak. The market eventually left the markup channel which is indicative of a new consolidation range. We then see decreasing volume + change of character to the upside leading to a high volume dip suggestive of a spring and confirming of re-accumulation. I scaled in my long after this spring.
TP area was calculated using a rudimentary 3 x trading range added to the top of the range instead of point and figure charts.
Once I TP'ed the market showed that this area was the right place to do it with the formation of a new consolidation here and a reaction off the markup channel after leaving it.
All in all, a great trade that went 100% according to plan.
Drawdown: few pips.
Profit: 485 pips (cumulative with scale in).
Will wait to see if market distributes or accumulates from here.

Can you see the change in character here? Biggest decline since original markup started - this tells us unequivocally that something different is happening. Another words, high probability that we will have a new consolidation range here. Secondary test + conclusion of Phase A + start of Phase B will tell us angle/strength of the range.

wrong pic above, this one has the declines painted to make it easier to see:

Notice overall markup channel being respected all the way to TP. Excited to see what this new change of character brings.

We may be seeing another consolidation range at a downward/weak angle.
