Price and volume. Nothing else matters.

Couldn't agree more Red! Couldn't agree more.
I use price by volume. That histogram is a third eye.
Nothing more beautiful than watching the trend reverse on a price with a drip of a volume.
I also keep an eye on T&S when I see the market approaching a price that had previous low volume. But I usually filter it to reflect 50+ contracts or higher.
Market profile is also extremely helpful!

I have been noticing how good this works also but I do not even use trend lines. I do use price channels for a guide, but my primary tools for taking DAX trades has been a non standard MACD and Stochastic set up. The DAX has had excellent trading for almost a year now since I started to trade it.Quote from maxdax:
