Re: [RT] Connors articles

Hello:
I have not traded his specific strategies consistently over a set period of
time but have used them in conjunction with his volatilty studies and all
the other stuff I've read to setup the types of stock entries I am
comfortable with. I've traded the studies in the Connors/Raschke book more.
  I look for stocks that are exhibiting several chart patterns in
combination with volatilty,ADX  .For me personally the Connors works on
volatilty added a depth to what I was looking for.It added alot to my
understanding of stock movement,why it was doing that(as far as anyone can
ascertain why) and enabled me to make more sense out of what I was seeing.
 As with many others  I prefer to  trade off 5min bars,watching many charts
at one time.Interpretation of a stock's movement on any 1 day  in the
context of its trend and volatilty postion has been extremely helpful, for
me anyway.
  Sorry for the rambling. My articulation today needs some work.
Paula
