    Filter chart to only show activity from trading but not investing

    I guess you are right when it goes about intraday, short-term and even in some cases mid-term. I am referring to a long-term. Speculators has nothing to do with long-term trend - their actions are not strong enough to affect it. In any case, volume is the greate tool for those who can interpret...

    Filter chart to only show activity from trading but not investing

    Filter chart to only show activity from trading but not investing

    Watch volume, however volume shows all activity which includes speculators and long-term investors (why buys and holds). As I understand you want to see jut volume of the speculators and not long-term investors. I do not think it is possible. When a trader places an order it does not reveal...

    Low priced stocks and TA?

    Check volume. If daily average volume is below 1M shares per day, then I would say you may ave real problem with applying TA to it. Low volume stocks are more sensitive to stock's manipulation by the company itself. Plus, gaps in trading will disorder the majority of technical indicators. On...
