Your charts are most informative and I've been admiring their clarity.

I have a newbie question however...

you seem to vary your box settings (9x3, 14x3, 19x3 and so on)... How do you determine which box size is the best fit for what you think the chart is telling you? Is there a policy of one size fits a particular time frame that you have in mind, whether you're trading intraday or swing trading. Or is it an arbitrary thing to back up your opinion, ie the equivalent of flicking through different time frame candlestick charts to give you a better feel for the market?

Any info much appreciated - I've spent the last week learning as much as I can about PnF, this seems to be the most comprehensive thread so far.

Thanks,
Progressa
