Once you understand the concept that there are only three possible options, you will begin to maximize your success. At The Sepia Group we look at Time-Frame Continuity, instead of the usual Moving Averages because we believe that price doesn’t actually “move”, it aggregates. So, for every buyer there must be a seller, and vice versa. Ultimately, understanding magnitude allows you to stay in trades a lot longer. Sideways 30 Pattern When Rob runs a scan, he wants to see how many things are taking out yesterday’s highs and yesterday’s lows. He looks at weekly and monthly time frames, in addition to the typical daily time frames. All of his software updates at the top and bottom of the hour (every 30 minutes). If you can learn to train your brain to see the same data at the :15 and :45 minute marks, you essentially double your signals. This approach is identifying participants by both price and time. The Strat Rob had been looking at charts for 20+ years and was trying to find a commonality to price action.
