>>Also, I should ask, when you chart the spoos what trading time span do you us? I use 405 minutes - stock market open to futures close. 60 minutes doesn't divide nicely into that time frame (so I tend to use 45 minutes or 135 for longer term intraday looks).<<

My TA work is done on the cash market charts.

I really only watch the ES and NQ charts for a feel of the market and placing a trade (to much noise).

405 minutes

Now what advantage does that give you...?
I use anything that can be divided by 3.!
120 and 240 charts seem to frame the activity that most closely resembles the markets activity over the last few days.

405 from open to spoo close is a good idea, but I don't know what advantage that gives you...?
