The setups I include on this blog are used in conjunction with the 3/10macd and the criteria I ascribe to it as a way to alert me to an existing condition of price. I day trade the 15-minute time frame by using the 5-minute to trigger the trade setup. I can be contacted via email at toddstrade@gmail.com

thurs 1_26

When the 2c-2d fails:
  There comes a time when buying the dip in a trend doesn't work out.  Today was such an example; where the 2c-2d buy setup turns into a 4c short setup.  
  Coming into 11:30 (CST) we had a 2c-2d criteria which was also a momentum buy divergence.  We got a buy signal (following the 3d setup on the 5-min chart) but price failed at resistance and rolled over.  This roll-over turned into a 4c short setup on the 15-min chart.
