i hope you're right. if a sizeable number are breaking the pattern (buying in the last 151 minutes) the flux should create upward momentum on the stock.

I think this pattern became widely known and has reversed. People are now buying in the last 15 minutes and planning to sell into the morning rally--only this time there won't be a morning rally. I predict we will see it down in early trading. Four out of five days, this pattern holds true -- nothing is 100 percent. If the market is efficient and everyone knows this pattern, why would it still exist? Maybe today's amplitude on this curve was a little moderated, but it's just one day's data. Look at the trends and you'd see it's still there and has been for at least a year. The simple trading strategy: sell in the first 5 minutes, buy in the last 5... Not foolproof, but pretty consistent.
