Looking at 03/27 ES mini, I see now what must have been obvious to everyone else in hindight. Unfortunately I am married to the 1 minute chart (lol). A habit I am trying to break.
Last tradings days' end of day effects created a rocket (oversold) at close. Carry over to todays' gap down opening, of which the break out or the continuation of yesterdays' rocket failed. What followed was a potential iceberg going long. On the 5 minute chart peaks of the iceberg occured approximately at 11:15, 13:00, 14:25 - ish. During this interim the stoc (14,1,3) remained above the 50 % mark. Neat.
This also converts to a rocket on the 15 min chart ? (Too bold a move for me).
Would I have used the trough of the stoc(5,2,3) on the 5 minute as an exit point on the failed break out ?
Would I have used the stoc (5,2,3) on the 5 minute as an entry signal for the "long" ?
Would I have used the stoc(14,1,3) on the 5 minute, crossing under the 50% mark as an exit signal for the iceberg ? Or would I exit when the stoc(14,1,3) on the 15 minute chart falls back into the tape region ?
What would be best ?
