I don't use 5 minute bars. Tick bars are adjustable to current volatility. I looked at minute bars over the weekend to try and find some regularity in this action but even the 1 minute didn't work.
As a citizen, I like bull markets, usually good earnings, low employment etc. As a trader, I don't care, if the market wants to go up, I get more long signals and vice versa. That's all I care about.
I told you weeks ago we were looking at institutional distribution...about a dozen "floors" back. At some point it will be over and will rally and you will say you were right all along :rolleyes:
