It's very encouraging so far to me, but that's just the reading. At first her charts were hard for me to understand but they're beginning to make sense the more I look at them.

She looks at different time frames on the same chart, and what is fascinating is when sellers (or buyers) from different time frames line up. I have to go look at those examples again because it was a bit uncanny. She says that has been happening with stocks and futures recently too, I hope she posts some more charts.

I think whether or not you want to trade futures doesn't matter, all charts have the same principles. I also think it can help w/ exit and entry points. But she always sets tight stops, something we all here never do. And she moves her stops if the trend is in her favor--i.e. let's say you buy and it ticks up today, tomorrow you move your stop--to maybe 1/4 under the previous day's close. Etc etc. So eventually you get stopped out of every position. She also mentions that of course w/ volatility sometimes there's just a one day downtick and if you don't want to get stopped out you can be less aggressive and set the stop from 2 days before.

Or you could do it however you wanted--but wouldn't we all rather have been stopped out of our positoins (as RR talks about) than watching them possibly deflate even more this week. We'll see.
