Jerry,
I stand corrected regarding the reference to Charles Drummond's book.
He is a position trader that can last a few minutes to months. He has extensive
materials on the subject of "daytrading" in context with your definition, but is
not easily available. His strategy consists of multiple timeframes and their
interplay or observations for his entries and exits. His basic methodology is
where the trade is taken from the viewpoint of a daytrader with the intent of
making it more than a one day position. His website covers the ideas.
