    As promised . . . 6/22/10 ES results . . . not sure if this is the right version . .. I got tired of looking . . . in any case I think it captures most of the items discussed . . . The diamonds are pivots identified based on criteria . . . size of movement mostly . . . The arrows are entries...

    Thank You! . . . then what is the correct definition? Please post a solid response. I find that on most forums people will post smilies and negations (like yours) but never post a real plausible opinion . . . I trust you will post a real opinion, not just "???"

    Nice calls dude(tte). . . However, unless I read it wrong, my 6B chart shows you're probaly trading pivot highs and lows along with PA . . . perhaps with 2 chart zooms . . . if that is the case, it is easily turned mechanical . . . not something I would deem discretionary, imho. . . just my...
