    Thanks for this post LC.

    When you say:
    “One thing a day trader must remember is that for majority of financial markets, majority of the participants are not day trading these markets.”

    I’ve heard people say this many times over the years.

    – is there any current day evidence that supports this?

    – I assume you are referring to trade volume?

    – do you know any way we can measure this for ourselves on a variety of markets?

    With thanks,
    MK

      All important turning points in the major markets are still STOPD levels in weekly and above. They can only be created by players of those timeframes and capacities.
