    Thanks, I got it - there's a new version of NT almost every week. I thought people might enjoy watching an autochannels indicator, so here is one. It's based on SpyderTrader's latest autochannel Wealthscript, as used in the 5.0 Equities chartscript. The RTL determination sometimes does...

    LostTrader, when I export an indicator from NT I get a .ntms file - how do you convert that to zip so it can be uploaded here? -palinuro

    Comparison of auto trading platforms

    Still no response to mine, either here or in the OQ forum... Maybe Santa's reindeer don't like Italy?

    Comparison of auto trading platforms

    I've posted this question twice on the OQ forum, but got no response, so thought I'd try here. Is there any way to create custom watchlists or otherwise automate stock selection for a particular strategy? As far as I can see, you have a single list of all stocks in the Instruments panel...

    Any trader From Italy?

    Any trader From Italy?

    A pretty good article, it's been quite a topic of conversation here in Rome. No one seems optimistic about anything changing.

    David, if the retrace after the (supposed) FTT is itself a channel, won't it be characterized by its own dominant and nondominant traversals? So while overall we should see decr black toward the big channel RTL, within that smaller channel we should see incr black alternating with decr red...

    Thanks, PointOne - since I started out learning Excel charts by right-clicking on yours to figure out how it worked, I'm happy to have something to offer you... I'm still having trouble, though. Find and Replace got 65(!) instances of my userid, but when I looked at the file in Word, I...

    I've done another IB Excel DOM that's different enough I thought others might be interested in it. It moves up and down the price ladder, has less distracting visuals (to my taste, obviously), and is based on IB's TWS demo instead of Mak's program. Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to...

    Nice Trading! FWIW, I got 8 opportunistic points treating the opening 25 minutes as an HVS, but I'd much rather have shown your consistency through the rest of the day.

    Exactly my understanding. When you say you always enter on increasing volume, then, you mean two different things: "previously increasing volume" when it's an FTT, and "current/future increasing volume" when it's a Point 3.

    I find your description of what you do confusing. An FTT is always followed by decreasing volume until we hit the RTL, isn't it? So isn't your FTT entry always on decreasing volume?

    Well, Yesterday I netted 10 points, and today 18. But I'm both happy and really angry (in a wry way) at myself. I think my entrances are generally very good, but I consistently do two things that cost me dearly: 1) try to trade through periods where I'm really guessing which channel is...

    Very true, I didn't mean my last post to sound negative. It's my favorite charting software, and has great support as well.

    Yes, that works, but on my main ES chart I now have to do it every time I want to copy a line that isn't the most recently drawn. But it's not the end of the world, of course. Otherwise, the new 'lock' feature is definitely a help, but I wonder why they didn't just make 'select' into a...

    No, it's not a problem of the earlier line being too close to be selected. The selection is accurate, but the copy function isn't applied to the selected line. Perhaps has something to do with buffer memory. I remember someone else having this problem months ago, and I think the only solution...

    cnms2, I had the impression from your charts you were using only volume and price - which of the finer tools are you using at this point?

    The FTT starts a retrace, so it should be on declining volume at that fractal until we hit the (original) RTL and either get a BO or an FBO. By shifting to the 2-minute YM to look for rising volume I think you are shifting to a lower fractal (the retrace/tree), and therefore seeing the...
