Dude, here you go and I help this explains it. I think you could use this on smaller timeframes no problemo, but most of my testing is 1HR and above. Just an example of one of the many ways to make money or to lose it.
haha...
This requires
Price Action /Technical Analysis identification of certain patterns, but with higher charts it is easier to do in my opinion.
Thanks.
Great vid! Thanks a lot for sharing!!!

I don't believe so.... Next week everyone will be switched over, but today is the unstable day of where volume starts to take over... Maybe I am wrong by a week, but don't thinks so....

Interesting. Normally I use the third Thursday or third Friday rule. That is generally when volume takes over. But apparently not this time. Always a good idea to keep the front month in your sights so you can see this switch.
