    Found this on another forum. Sometimes visualising a concept makes all the difference.

    Scroll Chart Bar-By-Bar

    From memory - tradingview.com was going to implement this feature a while back. I was in touch with the support guys over it. Haven't checked to see if they have done it or not. But it was in the dev pipeline for them....

    Problem with Multicharts minute bars

    You probably already know this but MC uses the bar end time as the bar timestamp. So the hourly Bar that starts at 0400GMT is actually referenced as 0500 if that makes sense(I think that's right, but you get the gist of it). I'm not sure about Sierra, but could that be the issue? Some conflict...

    Why journal?

    Ditto - along with a fair number of your posts as well ;) Personally I keep everything in Evernote. As it's easy to search, print off and export. Accessible from my phone, pc and laptop etc I've found that the importance of my Trade journal has lessened over the last few months. I conduct a...

    Why journal?

    I've had a journal here since last Jan maybe? I wouldn't call it a trade journal, more a development journal if that makes sense. The good: I was really lucky to receive a lot of help from a lot of great people. It was the help I received from one person in particular that has changed...

    My Wyckoff journal

    Spending Xmas eve going over my stats for the last series of trades. Am I obsessed about trading or what!!? Anyway - Its been a great year for me in terms of trading. I might post some stats in the new year to show the progression. Absolute 'night and day' between where I was at the start of...

    My Wyckoff journal

    Mostly positive day. If I was judging my performance on the P&L it was one of the better days in the last few weeks. But... And there is always a but :) I let myself down on a couple of trades. One that I took (greed? not mentally prepared enough?) the other I didn't take as I was already in...

    My Wyckoff journal

    Dammit - just spent a while drafting a post and then got a site error when I posted it - lost the whole thing :) Anyway - second attempt: I wasn't able to spend much time trading this afternoon as Life got in the way in a bit. But I'm back to trading FX and CFD's in the mornings (UK time), so...

    Gotcha. Cheers! I remember seeing you outline that process in other posts but couldn't find it. I am very grateful. Something you said within that post hit me like a tonne of bricks. I know what I have to do now. Thankyou.

    Thanks for that RN, once again very much appreciated. You said: Please understand that I was not asking for anything to do with the latter. Tools, techniques exercises etc was the main driver behind the question. We all learn and integrate new knowledge differently, sometimes an innocuous...

    My Wyckoff journal

    Precisely.... I know it as a concept. I'd be the first to admit that whilst it is there at the top of the heap, it hasn't sunk in 100% yet! MD says that active beliefs Demand Expression, so clearly anything that requires a conscious reminder isn't a core belief yet. Any suggestions moving...

    Dumb Redneck my arse!:D The reason I posted the question was that it brought up an interesting thought. Your quote reflected the MD / traders mindset I aspire to. Yet there was a conflict in my mind between completely "Accepting the Risk", and preemptively closing a trade; regardless of the...
