Hi - As I understand it, ADX set at the benchmark standard length of 14 is said to show a trend when it registers readings in excess of 25. Setting aside, for a moment, the question of whether or not such a threshold is worth diddly, does anyone know how to adjust this threshold...

Ah, so, you mean, just "jump in"? That's the secret to market riches? Holy Cow! THANKS!!!!!

My concern is not their charting (I use MultiCharts anyway), but their data's speed/lag. I will give IB this: Their "snapshot" data really hauls during fast market conditions such as those we had post-Fed. Anyone have any problems with OEC data speed yesterday?

I'm this close to making this switch. Anyone else done the same? Care to share your feelings about Open Ecry, especially, perhaps, in comparison to I.B.? (P.S. I don't need to trade every free market on earth) Thanks...

Complacency is the rational response to current circumstance, where Fed, PPT, etc., will intervene to protect the status quo. The only real threat will come from the unexpected, which is, by definition, unpredictable. It will take some unseen, undefined "X" factor to overwhelm all...

Show us your trade blotter, dude. Leave out the account info. Just time/lot size/entry-exit prices. Sim or not -- either way, doesn't matter to me. Just show us a screenshot of the blotter. C'mon, man, I wanna eat crow.

I don't think there is a mentor. I don't think there are any trades. I think this guy's pathological. Of course, if he posts the trade blotter, which confirms his claims, I'll owe him an apology. But I seriously doubt that's going to happen. These poseur clowns are so pathetic...

I, too, wonder if we're running the same software. I use MC's drawing tools extensively, often during the market session itself, "on the fly". No problems here. I run 10 MC workspaces simultaneously. This involves an aggregate of several hundred symbols (almost all of them "hidden") as...

Have you considered posting this on the MultiCharts forum? I have gotten results that way in the past. In my experience, MultiCharts' technical support is quite responsive, even to EasyLanguage queries such as this.

For every buyer there is seller. For every seller there is a buyer. So just what is "Up Volume" or "Down Volume"? Yes, I know, "Up Volume" reflects transactions that occur on the offer. "Down Volume" transactions that occur on the bid. When used as a measurement of buying pressure...

The short answer is "no." This one reason why I ended up with MultiCharts, which DOES timestamp and display in seconds, will run from TradeStation data (and from the data of a couple of dozen others) and accept all my EasyLanguage studies.

Curious: Why is it that the 1.5 Std Dev BB Band is so oftn paired with the 2x-AvgTR Keltner? Why not 2 Std Dev with 2x-AvgTR? Is the assumption that two times the Average True Range = 1.5 Std Devs? If so, why? What am I missing here?

I've just loaded it. I was already a fan of MultiCharts, warts and all. But the warts are now gone, and now I'm in love. What was a thoughtfully designed but lumbering platform is now as fast as anything I've experienced anywhere. The MC team has coded it to take full advantage of...

That's a tautology, not an answer.

You still haven't answered my question. I suspect the reason is that the real answer -- something along the lines of, "Because I wanna be rich-rich-RICH and the futs are my best shot at getting what I want" -- embarrasses you. If that is correct, I can tell you right now, Ryan Watts' course...

BnB -- Why do you want this so badly? They're a lot of other ways to make a buck, and many require less effort. Why trading?

Interesting. Which version are you using? Also, what is "UI" functionality?

Can't speak to "bloat" or AmiBroker, but my subjective impression is that MC is faster than TradeStation, while offering additional critical functionality TradeStation lacks. The newest release, now in beta, is designed to take full advantage of multiple core configurations, with a 50% increase...
