The bars
The count
The sell run is at 11 closes in a row above the close 4 bars earlier; its 9 completed 2 bars ago.
- The last setups
- The last buy 9 completed 40 bars ago, perfected; its TDST resistance is 2,310.10. The last sell 9 completed 2 bars ago, perfected; its TDST support is 2,321.10. The close is above the buy setup's TDST resistance. The close is above the sell setup's TDST support.
- The countdown
- No buy countdown is running. A sell countdown is running at 1 of 13.
- In these bars
- Counted here: 1 buy 9, after which the close 4 bars later was higher 1 time; 1 sell 9, after which the close 4 bars later was lower 1 time. A handful of cases proves nothing either way; test years of your own market before leaning on the count.
- Read it with care
- A 9 or a 13 marks a run that has gone on a long time, not a turn that must come. The page follows the common published rules and leaves out the finer cancellation and recycling rules, so other charts can count differently.
The close, the setup count and the countdown bars on the last 10 bars. A dash means no count on that bar; past 9 the setup stays complete and the run length is shown. The last bar is marked.

Counting to 9 and to 13
TD Sequential, from Tom DeMark, counts how long a move has run. The setup counts closes in a row below the close 4 bars earlier (a buy setup) or above it (a sell setup); 9 in a row completes it. The countdown then counts closes at or beyond the low (or high) 2 bars earlier, not necessarily in a row, up to 13. Traders read a 9 or a 13 as a sign that a run is getting old, and watch the TDST levels, the setup's extreme high or low: a close through one is often read as the run carrying on. A buy 9 is perfected when the low of bar 8 or 9 is at or under the lows of bars 6 and 7 (a sell 9: the highs at or over).
