I've never found that a 20 tick chart bears much resemblance to a 5 minute, or 5
minute to 30 minute.The 5 minute bears more resemblance to the 30 minute, than
does the 20 tick to the 5 minute. At 30 minutes the charts begin to bear
considerable resemblance to the daily, weekly, and monthly. The shorter time
frames seem to carry considerably more noise, and it's been my experience that I
can only interpret pivots, channels, and Fibonacci ratios with reference to the
30 minute chart.
