    I'm confused...if I'm reading this graph correctly...it is saying that on the first day of trading for the month....ES has held its high or low 16% of the time?

    It's showing the significance compared to other days. The first day of the month clearly is not like any other day of the month and those graphs clearly show that.

  5. Theres also a correlation between when intraday highs and lows are formed - generally around the opens.

    If anyones interested in seeing this in a particular instrument I can run it for you and produce some pretty charts - thats if Baggerlord doesn't beat me to it :)

  6. Heh when I said I'm not very good at computers I wasn't being humble. Me learning to program is a very painful process.

  10. Here is something I have been thinking about. If understand that the daily opening range can give a small trader an advantage because large firms have to move money on a daily basis. This can't necessarily be taken advantage of by other firms because they also have to move large amounts of money to exploit this. However I am trying to understand why a monthly edge would continue to exist when this timeframe should allow nearly anyone to take advantage of it. Thoughts?
