Move geometry: correction versus continuation

In lessons 01–02 the signal fired after a rebound of 5 units off the oscillator’s extreme. Those 5 units are one of the two move-geometry parameters that decide WHICH moment of the stretch we treat as the entry:

• Movement Correction — “wait for the pullback”. The signal fires when OKUR rebounds off its extreme by a set number of units. The larger the value, the stronger the evidence of reversal we demand.
• Movement Continuation — “wait for the deepening”. The signal fires when OKUR pushes into the zone DEEPER than the threshold by a set amount. We do not wait for a rebound — we buy the panic at its climax, cheaper.

This set runs two buttons at once, in the same direction, differing only in geometry — so that on one chart you can see how differently these two philosophies enter the same move.

What is switched on, and why

Button	Setting	Philosophy
B1 “pullback”	Movement_Correction=25, Continuation=0	entry only after a clear (25-unit) rebound off the extreme — later, but with confirmation
B2 “depth”	Correction=0, Continuation=25	entry when the stretch deepens by 25 units past the threshold — earlier and cheaper, but without evidence of reversal
Both	threshold ±250, SL 200, TP 800, BE 200/100, TS 300/100, max 2 positions	identical frames — the geometry of the entry is the only difference

The button labels (B1_Label, B2_Label) are visible in the trade markers, so on the chart you immediately see which philosophy opened which position.

How it makes price behavior visible

Every overstretched excursion has three phases: acceleration → climax → reversal. The two buttons highlight them live:

1. The “depth” button enters in the climax phase — its markers appear deeper, at a better price, but some of them catch a “knife” that deepens further (the SL works more often).
2. The “pullback” button enters in the reversal phase — after a rebound of 25 units. The entry price is worse, but the hit rate is clearly higher.
3. In moves that actually reverse, both buttons hold a position — “depth” at a better price. In moves that keep trending, “depth” collects losses while “pullback” often gets no signal at all (OKUR does not rebound by 25) — the geometry alone already acts as a filter.

After a week of watching, you understand the sentence at the core of all of Okurra: there is no single “good” entry — there is an entry matched to the phase of the move, and the Correction/Continuation parameters let you pick that phase.

What to watch on the chart

• Pairs of “depth” vs “pullback” markers within the same stretch — the difference in entry price is the cost/value of confirmation.
• Stretches where “pullback” stays silent while “depth” loses — this is the lesson in why the 0/0 value (a signal on every candle inside the zone) is reserved strictly for research.

Next step

Lesson 04: since many signals can fire inside one zone, we need discipline — a signal validity window and position-density limits.
