Market Crashes and Log Periodic Power Law Behavior

Mike,

This is phenomenal stuff. I bot Didier's book not long after the 1987 crash but found the maths too challenging to truly understand the equations he used. I'm curious - can the behavior be used at different time frames (fractals and all that)?

I suspect that the technique can be used on different time scales, there were some references to this.
