    I don't understand the poll question. I use the 85-second and the 2600-second averages, and this produces 2 to 5 trades per day. So, what "time frame" do I use?

    i guess it's better for me to try to look at a time frame other than the 5-min since most people are watching that

    I use which ever time frames give me the best read on the market / stock based on current volatility

    I do use multiple time frame charts

    And

    One of my rules - Alway "be" adapatable, and then "adapt", to changing conditions

    Food for Thought

    dafong - Just because eveyone else uses it does not make it wrong - it's only wrong if it does not work for you
