Hi Woody...

I use a variety of different time frames.

The trading days consists of 390 minutes so any time frame that divides equally into that number I use
390 ÷ by 13m = 30m
390 ÷ by 130m = 3m

390 ÷ by 60m = 6.5 so I avoid doing charts on hourly time frames

The only begrudging exception is 120m charts instead of 130m... because stockcharts doesn't offer them...
So I print those and chart by hand.

Recently, I've turned to the Equal Weighted charts which is very productive ie: $SPXEW

Nov 5 - 11 - 19 were important dates... right now can't remember if I used $SPX cash or the equal weighted Charts
