I'm using 5 minutes + 15 minutes to trade Eminis. Thinking about switching to tick and constant volume charts, I hate eye balling volume bars, anyone has good experience with this type of charting?
I believe this is the thread you will want to reference - http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=80582&highlight=odd+tick+charts That's the thread I stumbled upon through an ET recommendation and ever since have loved volume based charts. They provide quite a different story at times, esp in the current volatility. Good luck! PS I am using a 5000 contract setting on the ES. That's indifferent, but that's a setting that I like. It's quick at times, that's for sure. You just have to be on your game.
