Hello Traders,
For 2013 I would like to wish all of you discipline and patience in your trading!
As most of you know, for short term trading I like to use volume charts, range bar charts and Renko charts.
I have shared some set ups in previous posts and will continue to do so.
For example, I like to use 18 ticks range bar charts for crude oil and 6 ticks range bar charts for mini SP.
Here is a little more on Range bar charts, courtesy of CQG.com which is my main charting/execution software followed by sierra charts:
Range Bar (RB)
A Range Bar chart is a non-time-based chart constructed of bars that indicate price movement as a way to help expose trends and volatility. A bar is created each time a trade occurs outside of the previous bar’s stated price range, which you set in preferences.
Mini S&P 2 Tick Range Bar Chart
