good insight Neoripley.
The logical conclusion would be to ditch indicators and rely on Suppport and Resistance, as the areas of action occur at a specific price-range, irrespective whether that rnage was reached after 1 day or 3 days?
thus the price point is more reliable than indicators that need time as a component, as the same indicator over 1 day will give a different signal if stretched over 3 days, but the price-point (Sup/Res) will always be truer?
EDIT: or maybe Point and Figure charts more reliable?
Yes exactly. Unless you can adjust the parameters of the indicator to cater for the current market conditions as they occur. The trick is finding a benchmark against which to tune the indicator. Point and figure would probably also be more reliable when applying indicators over different time frames. Can you apply math indicators to a P&F chart though? Personally, I'd find it hard to ditch candlestick or line charts for P&F. Besides, you can pretty much 'overlay' a P&F chart onto a normal chart with a couple of dynamic lines.
