Ton,
   I am not sure if you were directing this message to me or J (since you
replied to his reply) But I think you will find my message to him a little
more clear on my strategy than the first post I gave. You could be
exactly correct on your timing, In fact I believe that Wednesdays
low is the low for this week, and we should have already hit
the low for this quarter (April-June), If the price seems to reverse
before the Monthly lower congestion level (around 1330) then my
rules would be too reverse with it and ride the market up (and possibly
make the month high).  It is very likely that that this May bar could
exit congestion to the up side....but I don't care. I want to go in what
ever direction it moves. Some of the folks that use this method
capture an average  40% of the move that each bar (in the focus
time period) that they trade. My focus period is monthly bars.
 The SO&UP bar for April had a 195 point range from high to low,
195 ax 40% = 78 points. Can I do this....don't know, but I aim
find out. You have a good record and as always I enjoy your analysis.

Adam
