Another idea Walter that kind of piggybacks on yours is to use simple support/resistance areas. For example - as price breaks a level, look for a reason to either go with the break or anticipate a false break.
Here's an example from today:
Here you can see an obvious box from the open till about 10:50am.
And then blast off on the 10:51 candle that breaks the zone like it wasn't there.
As the saying goes - old resistance becomes new support.
