    QCharts problem?

    I'm new to QCharts. The INDU does not seem to be working - chart empty with no bars historically such as Friday or earlier. Is this how it works or am I missing something? Any immediate guidance would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Thanks for your post explaining the role of the '2 pairs and a spike'. Also thanks for the excellent diagram you appended. You have said "Fast trends occur @10K vol or better on 5 min charts. Slow paces are @ 4.5k vol or better on 5 min." Do these rates apply to the 5 min bar INDU chart...

    Charting --- who uses what?

    Where am I? A rudimentary player who has gone operational. You have said "..do trends and traverses on price (trendlines), PRV (5 min)and volume ranges to determine market paces, and indicators.." I draw/re-draw channels on screen, use 5 min bars, judge PRV on 5 min bars and manage the...

    Charting --- who uses what?

    Today (Mon May 3) was a toughie to work out from the outset and apply the channels (INDU). There was couple of sharp run-ups in the first hour, not unexpected, and then still difficult to work out the slower paced stuff into channels. I do not have a belief problem about channels. I follow...

    You have provided this definition: "2 pair. This is just a term for DOM activity. You will notice that occasionally the Bbid/Bask jumps from one pair of Bbid/Bask to another and then it jumps back to the original pair. This small repeated excursion is called a 2 pair." You will see that I'm...

    DOM & Offset ..

    I am seeking to increase my understanding of DOM (depth of market) and offset. Is DOM included as an indicator in the QCharts package? Are there other ways it is offered? Can anyone direct me to the application of DOM on INDU, index futures and/or e-minis? Offset has been mentioned on a...

    Charting --- who uses what?

    Thank you for the both the time and the lengthy replies you gave. Today I spent time drawing channels on hard copy and on screen as the Dow developed today. I have in the past looked at A days, V days, W days, M days and N days but concentrating on 4 mini-trends or channels as you suggest is...

    Drawing lines on Quote.com

    Hi, When I draw channel lines on Quote.com Livecharts, these channel lines move out of sync as each new bar begins. Any answers or help would be appreciated. Thanks. :)

    Charting --- who uses what?

    No one answered. JohnnyK appears to provide an answer inadvertently. I had reasoned that the top of a downward channel could be called the right and the bottom would therefore be the left. For an upward sloping channel the top would become the left and the bottom the right. I wanted to...

    Charting --- who uses what?

    I can understand a channel and traverses of price as "zig zag moves to and fro within the channel borders drawn as narrow parallel linesbounding the price movement." Like anyone else I read and write from left to right. Can anyone explain how there can be a "right to left transverse of the...

    Charting --- who uses what?

    Thanks for your clarification. I don't want to bite off more than I can chew and I also want to try on the KISS basis. I go with your suggestions - 4 trends a day using "Gimmick". I have the Quote.com service and I have been looking at CBOT:YM04M. The volume verticals are red for the down...

    Charting --- who uses what?

    Thank you for your detailed reply. "The "gimick" is bars 2, 3, and possibly 4. 2 is VDU bar and 3 and 4 are the BO bars. All on 5 min charts." Are these bars you refer to half an hour each? Or are these 5 minute bars starting from when in market time - 9.30 or 10am? Thanks.

    Are you referring to the Dow? How is it you only make 2500pts a year if you do more than the HL each day? Thanks.
