ETF SWING & DAY TRADING

[gloe]

Yes, I have settled on the 15 min as a good compromise between the slow 60 min and the whippy 5 min. I have the 48 CCI as well as the 14 CCI on the 15 min. Sometimes there are good patterns on the 14 CCI that warn of a possible trend change - such as a Vegas trade, or a good looking ghost - before the Nocona trade triggers. I still watch the 5 min CCI 14 for woodie patterns, though, that might help me get back into a trade. For example, I don't hold futures overnight, so in the morning, I need a method to get into the first trade. Sometimes I can do that with a woodie 5 min pattern.

I am also looking at the 60 min ADX for a mini-trend, as Chico suggests. No reason to step in front of a speeding train.
