I started working with Range Bar charts (as they are called in TradeStation) a couple months ago. I like the different perspective they offer.

Nice to see another Delawarean here!

Nice to meet a fellow Delawarean also. I hope your trading is going well.

Dennis Gartman it is for me! He is my holy grail.
He just called a market bottom on Thursday. I am long from Friday midday.
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-02-26/dennis-gartman-warns-against-buying-the-dip-in-the-stock-market?sref=hhaSQliC

Gartman's quote is:

“You want to be long the gold market, short the stock market, and long the bond market,” he said. “That’s the trade to have. I have that in my own account and continue to recommend it.”

How do you figure that is calling the bottom.

CNBC just posted this morning the overnight swing is 1000 points.

I think a person could make more money just staying out of the markets and waiting for Gartman to offer his advice, then do the opposite.

Come on guys, this is about your favorite CHART not your favorite stock advisor/anti advisor. Self edit please.Unless Dennis Gartman is a chart he should not be on this thread.

Sounds good Gary. Will stay on topic!

Best chart for me is 30m with HL swings marked and market technical indicators - Pivots, Breath, Vol spread and Ticks.

I am going out of the limb here. I think this market is going to shape up to be a bell curve. Today’s market and next few weeks will shape the peak but eventually it will hit the downward slope of the bell curve.
Basically maybe we are looking at 2 days worth of rally. The day Fed cuts interest rate and the following day and then decline continues.

Here is a 3 month chart for SP:

I personally voted for time based and context. Using simple indicators that show me things like daily and weekly ranges help give me some context for what good entry or exit points may be. I keep it simple.

Mike

I agree. simple, context. That's a long way from where you were just before and after I joined this forum. ...and where I was too. I like to think of trading as surfing, or snowboarding. I'f you are a trader who does either you'll get that. Experience and context count, and from there it's how you react and adapt to an evolving situation.

That's at least an innovative concept
