Hey, Nemer

I often jump around SI to selected active threads during periods of high market volatility to get a pulse, so to speak, of posters relative "exuberance", to steal a phrase from Judy.

Not for anything, but that pivot technique that Kevin uses is okay but I've found it's a pain the neck for intraday. Without checking, it looks like a minor variation from the standard technique, and I remember it being a nuisance intraday.

I believe part of the problem was selecting the proper interval...too short an interval gives too many false pivots....too long prevents you from pulling the trigger at the correct time. I noted that someone asked you about it....just passing on my reflections --- I have not looked at it in at least 6 months to a year, however.
