Thanks walter
Just trying to get up to speed on the ABC. So how do you decide which set of bands to use? It seems like you would want to use 1 atr on quieter days and the 2.5 atr on days like we've had lately with the increased volatility. Correct? Thanks.
Mark

Yes Mark... the area otside 2.5 atr is where market shows strength... when market go cyclical you will notice how it will normally bounce back in from that boundarie... in that case its ideal to trade the "false break" and "lazy" trades... cheers Walter.

Tomorrow I will be doing some flips and abc`s on ym... so I wanted to share some setups we had today and how this would be followed tomorrow..

I will be using a 22 t chart with the classic keltners and cci, will look like this :

probably a video will be the best way to explain a little how this works... continue on next post... cheers Walter.

Walter,

Thanks for the videos.
re the breakouts from the coils - Do you have minimums for the initial breakout?
