I don't really do the fan much, once you read more you'll understand why. There are people who do very well with it but it only works on equally spaced charts, i.e. you can use it intraweek because there are no spots but when you start putting points outside the begin or end of a week then scale becomes an issue because for every 5 bars in a week there are two that you don't see. Weekly bars work good because there is always 2 days between them.
As far as reading Patrick Mikula, Gilmore, if you can find a copy of Trader's World issue #30 from 2001 it will help too. I saw it somewhere but don't remember where.
