MARGIE , i keep it unbeievably simple.Iuse a 1 min. chart 5 min. and 15min. chart. all have the same indicators . WilliMS %R MACD AND STOCHASTICS . Ihave a 54 period moving avg. on my 5 min. chart(my bread and butter) and mov avg envelopes on it currently set at 2.00 and 1.50 deviations. when the williams% r is over 92 and the stoch areover 80 and rolling over and im near the top of my envelope its nearly 100% correlation for a good short scalp. entries come from the mov. avg . for instance right now its at 1253.50 and you will find resis. and support in increments of 5 from it ,up to or down to the envelope.(ie1258.50 or 1248.50 etc) it may sound complicated but it isnt . The only reason i dont bat 100% is i take a lot of trades before all the conditions ive laid out are present. (ie stoch, envelope, and williams %r). the monster trades occur when 1 , 5 and 15 min. all have these condions present. Ive used a million diff. trading techniques and systems over 20 years but nothing can match these simple tools and common sense.

I'm not Margie, but how's about a screen shot of that setup?
Sounds like a neat way to do things Kool.

Remember i also follow some cycles and use a proprietory method of determining price projection which helps idetify support an dresis. areas . WHEN I TRADE , SINCE IT WILL ALMOST ALWAYS BOUNCE SOMEWHAT I JUST GO AFTER SMALL 1-4 POINT SCALPS USUALLY. thats why i dont really even care if were trending up or down. All i want is the next 2- 4 handles.

5 min. on a weak sell but it looks like its killing time so the 15 min. can become oversold enough for a good rally.

Actually, i was too late on my entry and didnt get filled! Generally, my orders go in a few seconds before i post. Notice the time on that post(12:40). The market had peaked one minute or two before at 1267.75, but it never got above 1265.75 after my order was in so i didnt get hit. Too bad cause it would have been a really good trade.Thats why i made no comment about being stopped out or exiting with a profit. PS: sorry i didnt answer earlier, crazy day!
