Right, that's another very useful one.  I was just looking for that 34/170/34 setting you've lately liked in conjunction w/ the 25/170/25 MACD histogram.  Trying to read the SPX right now, looking for a long or short, short term.  The short term triangle you just posted is the exact thing needed here to use as a trigger, then watch the histograms for confirmation.

    btw, I closed my short based on your triangle.

    good trading!  I also find

    good trading!  I also find that the histograms work well on a 1 min SPY to catch some day trades.  

    Otherwise regarding this market, the move off yesterday's lows has not been impulsive, it's been choppy, no 5 waves, so eventually it argues at another pullback; that doesn't mean it can't chop it's way higher first, just saying the move off the lows has not been impulsive.
