    OK,lyoung, i see your points.
    Keep dong a study on bull markets, with a 200 day moving average trend line, like IBD [Investors Business Daily newspaper] charts, for example. You will see what i mean-- with its hard to stop a train, hard to stop a trend/uptrend] 200 day/period moving average is the trend line i am referring to --''plain + simple'' as you say.Thanks

    Do you recommend the standard setting of 14 for RSI or maybe go with a shorter 10 for intraday? I use 3 minute charts. Thanks in advance!
