5 minute Bars are the Best

No I just apply an exponential moving average to it to get a number...this number translates to the number to use in RangeBars.

Some charting programs will allow you to merge a MA into an indicator...

I put the ATR in the EMA...looks like I should of done the opposite!

 

Good Trading to you ten...

Ah I see. Thanks

 

What's your range on your bar chart? 2? 4?

 

That's exactly my setup. Works for me.

 

The rangbars are unique to which instrument is traded...I trade Forex and some rangebars are 12 or 14 ...its whatever the EMA of the ATR is at...check it weekly

 

I rotate time frames to find the ones the the market is trading on during any given day. It's a pain but it definitely helps me find the more relevant frames at play that day.

Did you really just resurrect a 10 year old thread?
Actually, it's not that bad...it made me in my 50's again...carry on.
