    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    using FV 55.09 so far today - not perfected the adjustment of this so far. Mak - would appreciate your comments on attached. As an example. the move from the bottom at 11:38 approx upward in xls remained in squeezy mode. Can this only mean I am not calibrated or do I hold through until smart...

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    ok so some tweaks and we have v1.1.2 of the xls. Shown here is descending STR/NEUTR/SQU sequence color coded for ease of reference - all feeding from Mak's poetic logic. A new line is inserted and pushes previous data downward - better than copying and pasting and frees up cpu for the...

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    I added a crude log of the day's str/squ to Maks xls - will make it a little cleaner and readable. This should be useful for post mortems looking back on a given day. IRL

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    MAK et al. I played with your XLS a little and think with minor additional code I can log and timestamp the sequence of STR->SQU-> NEUTR etc. My thinking is that this would provide a good lookback record for end of day to analyze what happened at any point and be educational for us all...

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    Ok so for the IB xls I posted last night, the timestamps Mak refers to are removed - they were somehow causing me problems in mine. That is a clever way Mak to keep tabs on how up to date the data feed is. Not sure if IB has a timestamp function - if anyone has it working please advise IRL

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    Easyrider I'll help you no problem. What I did to get the correct link was download IB's demo xls and then once I got the feed working in that I copied and pasted the syntax into MAK's xls. The keyboard symbol you can't find is a 'pipe' and on US keyboard US keyboard it is above the backslash...

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    TX - etlurker built a nice looking app some time back that monitored the INDU str/sqz and he built it using direct feed from each stock vs a delayed one via IB. I think it is page 45 of this thread or direct link is: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=840851

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    Mak this is an intersting post. As time permits could you elaborate a little on the BSIZE/ASIZE. I know this has been discussed in the past but some examples for clarification would be very helpful. Using just your chart as posted and given the rate at which the BSIZE/ASIZE changes - what...

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    this can be set up to always show the full size picture by default and avoid waiting for that annoying little icon that is always shy about revelaing himself. Internet options, Advanced, multimedia, uncheck the 'Enable automatic image re-sizing' (see attached) Irl.

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    easyrider, Sometimes there are work arounds in Ensign, you just have to be creative. You mentioned you would like to put permanent horizontal bars of your choice on volume. One way to do that is with their Daily Price Lines object. I don't think it is a study but there is an icon for it...

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    hey osho your point 2 is valid imo - I just expanded the channel which is the norm with the left hand channel. See grobs example bottom of page 73 - his pink left lines keep getting pushed outward to form the bigger wider channel - he left his in place I simply dragged mine 'leftward'...
