Click on the chart to enlarge it. Here's an example of how multiple timeframe analysis can often identify some terrific trade opportunities. This first chart is a quarterly chart of Cotton and I've shown it to stress two points:
First, Ocean analysis works on all timeframes, from minute-based bars used for day trading to quarterly bars (and higher) when looking for the Big Picture of a market.
Secondly, this quarterly chart has been annotated to show the dollar value of some of the moves after the Ocean NMC ZeroHits.
Note that each of these calculations are based on an entry after an NMC ZeroHit in the same direction. Granted, no one can ever get out at the precise end of a move, but this allows you to see that Ocean signals can often presage huge moves.
Note also that most of the long-term moves are clearly identifiable from an Ocean NMC analysis and are generally very clean and orderly at the quarterly level.
For long-term position traders, an extreme top-down view of the market from this perspective can often produce a clear picture of the overall tide of a market and sometimes help identify a hidden gem.
