    Are you being serious with this? Under The Box Think S Y S I think its rare to see bands that are seperated like that but levels are often clear.

    SCILAB - Looking for feedback from users

    As far as I am aware the following matlab code does not have an equivalent in scilab: [s stat] = urlread(['http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=SLB']); I use matlab R2008b and the function 'urlread' is what it makes it useful for obtaining EOD data and automating scans. Without an equivalent...

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    I don't subscribe to a data feed, so can't use Ninjatrader or play with Excel. I believe that IB brokers feed into Ninjatrader but I don't have an account with IB. Maybe I should try eSignal Livecharts again as it now comes with market depth for an extra $30. Pivot points TO, I'm suprised...

    Seems to me that you haven't thought very much about what you are saying. A question just for you only: If anyone wanted to 'get' any particular book, what method would you suggest to try first?

    I'd use OHLC bars on the charts or alternatively coloured candles. I wouldn't daytrade BAC for obvious reasons. I thought Quotetracker was to be discontinued.

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    I see big volume at the start of the move up and big volume near the top. There is also that great big spike down and back up with little volume. I take it that the volume along the bottom has been obtained from the T&S data - but then I thought that you had previously dismissed looking at...

    Correction, that should have been IDCC. No matter though as I didn't trade any of them.

    I was inspired by POT to look for uptrending stocks. The uptrend for POT seems to have burned out. WHR was trending up too but possibly it has finished now. UCO still appears to be powering up. and a few more got my attention: ETN, CTXS, IPCC, PLL, QCOM

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    On a price bar, if the open price = close price then the bar has no net change so whatever colour is assigned by a chart is meaningless. If the time sampling of the chart could be shifted slightely, the open and close prices would take on slightely different values and those bars that...

    Regarding the third item, whether or not these are the exact words RN had in mind, the circumstance that will cause price to rise is when demand rate exceeds supply rate, and evidence of that should be seen in T&S. Opposite for falling price of course.

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    I don't know the answer unfortunately. Big size , small red colour is all I can make of it. But what does size refer to? Large volume with a relatively small price bar indicating a possible turning point. As for orders being split, I noticed that with CLF any attempt to trade more than...

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    Well I won't be trading POT tomorrow but it will be interesting to see what happens. I tried to read and annotate the chart from left to right as if it was unfolding. The red lines of price increments seemed to falter, so at that point I switched to smaller price increment in blue once the...

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    So trend followers probably see the yellow lines, while possibly missing the actions that drive those trends. Also, not marked on the chart I see some periods of exponential recovery where price rises rapidly, then slowing as a level is approached and often followed by a retrace before...
