I'm having a difficult time posting my charts as attachments. I hold down alt+printscreen and then paste it into the paint program>save it>and attach. But it isn't working. The only way I can get a chart to attach is through an outside host. If someone would care to explain a better...

However, it is interesting to note that on the 1 minute chart the ADX is well above 30, and the signal is clearer than ever.

Not a perfect setup [ADX wasn't above 30], but I liked it nonetheless. http://i1.tinypic.com/n4iiz9.jpg

Looked like a set-up to me. http://i1.tinypic.com/n2ln3p.jpg

Charts aren't loading for some reason. I must be doing something wrong.

I have the exact same questions and I'll post my parameters below. First I want to thank No PM for his time and effort. I've read both threads twice. I also noticed the nice setup at the end of trading today, and caught part of it only, (1/31/06), so hopefully my settings are correct...

Thanks that's probably my mistake. Although I thought that you had to left click to place an order. I didn't think right clicking also placed an order, but I guess I was wrong. One more question: Let's say I buy at 1290. I put in a sell stop at 1288. Can I simultaneously put in an...

I placed an order on the ES with IB's book trader today, and I wanted to put in a stop two points lower. I couldn't figure out how to do it. I ended up making three trades today I didn't want to make because of unfamiliarity with the software. I read every help section and tutorial, but I'm...

Two questions: 1. What is TT? 2. For those who use Trade Station, why do you need an independent data feed--or do you? Isn't Trade Station self contained? Doesn't TradeStation contain a trading platform, realtime data, charting--everything you need? Thanks
