yup clear as day, thanks

here's an image showing 5 min, 3 min, 1 min, 30 second - so the chart on the left side is the 5 min, long enough time frame the last 2 days, other days I might use 10 or 15 min on other days, and it doesn't really matter, it's all fractal , let's call that your 'Pivot Time frame'.  So in this example that 5 min was my pivot time frame - on the MA ribbon that was bearishly stacked - every time the BPT MA turned green for a couple bars was your clue to look for short opportunities. But you don't get your triggers off the 'pivot' time frame, you get it off a lower time frame like the 3 min, 1 min, 30 second in this case - looking for an ABC bounce and maybe a cycle resistance as further confirmation

again it's fractal. you might use a daily as your pivot time frame and a 2hr, 1hr, 30 min as your trigger abc time frames

or a 1hr as your pivot time frame and 30 min, 15, 5 as your abc time frames 

Matt I was biased (ignoramus) long.  I have to execute what's in front of me not what I cheerlead for. So at least no loss

the method is simple-  use the ribbons and trend on higher time frames - last couple days heck just a 10 and 5 min was long enough for the bigger time frame - the MA ribbon bearishly stacked on those time frames -then look for shorting opportunities when the BPT MA deluxe pinches turns green pinching some on the 10 and 5 min - but get my trigger off an ABC on the lower time frames, 5 min, 3 min, 2 min, 1 min, 30 second - all I did last 2 days was short abc bounces 

same for when uptrending - I'll look for abc pullbacks on the smaller time frames and a trigger
