If memory serves, he takes the breakout/breakdown (retracement, then a higher high for LONGs or a lower low for SHORTS) of the previous oscillation as an entry signal for going Long/Short.

He also uses unique tools for trend identification, exhaustion (pullbacks) and resumptions.

I also found exactly the same issues with the system, which is why I moved on from it.

However, having said that, I've found that no ONE system/indice delivers for my consistently across the board all of the time.

So if something like this were used in conjucntion with a breakout system (Bitstream used to use one pretty successfully for a while there) to catch the early moves, you could probably achieve a pretty consistently robust system.

Note: It always helps to keep track the previous days' price action (choppy/trending/consolidating).

Is he somebody "famous" I should know about? I see his name pop up on a number of boards and seems like a good guy.

The tuesday and/or wednesday of option expiration week are typically the most volatile days of the month.

With regards to options expiration -

According to Stock Trader's Almanac, the Friday before President's Day is usually weak (the S&P 500 has been up only 8 times in the last 31 years).
