I use 20 min charts for s/r, and a smaller time frame for entry.

The ES and NQ are open for 405 minutes for the day session. I divide that number by 3 and get 135 min. I do have a 135 minute NQ chart going at all times, and occasionally look at the 135 min ES. There are five 81 minute bars per session, not 6.

I don't like either, but the IBD is much better in my opinion.

......lets hope it lasts!!!

Attached is a chart I sent out to some of my guys last night. We broke through 2 levels of support on the daily QQQ today. Please remember that the NQ, QQQ, ES, YM, OEX, etc. will almost always follow each other. Further, highs/lows of the day or of various swings that occur intra-day will...

running up te target line here too.

Nothing wrong with that

update on $VXN:

Well it looks to me that for the most part the swings start and stop at the same time as the ES, YM, etc.

Any e-mini Russell 2000 traders here? It appears volume has really picked up the last 12 months. The swings on a dollar for dollar basis appear to be much greater than the ES and NQ.

update on VXN:

I only look at long term OEX charts to try to see where the market is going as I am not an options trader, and with my type of analysis, the OEX works well. As an example, keep in mind that if one index is making a critical high, the others will be too. In fact, during almost every trading day...

Hey Seth...I don't know..other than I have trouble refreshing my charts on the weekend when e-Signal's servers are inactive...doesn't make too much sense, but that is all I can figure.

Weekly gold:

I agree. Gold Monthly:
