    Just a couple thoughts: 1) Thank you pr0 and pt1 for the QT enhancements, much appreciated. 2) YM annotations ALWAYS precede ES annotations, therefore for those that havn't checked out Spyder's YM charts in awhile, he is showing the gau. Annotating the YM gau has helped me with my ES...

    Yes, you can 'redraw' the channel using the FBO as a new pt 3. As a side note...it appears from your chart you are only looking at price and not volume. Volume is key. Volume leads price, as price lags. Add to your chart the volume level rays for Very Dry Up, Dry Up, etc. See the...

    A tip for Qchart users: if a 'cleaner' window for a chart or the STR/SQZ is desired, try right click ->Format->uncheck 'Daily Snapshot Bar' when the cursor is placed in the chart or window. This helped me see the extreme values of STR/SQZ yesterday during the FOMC annoucement. -Mike

    Bundle, Looking at the YM, I see b2r for the first 3 gau, indicating an uptrend so far on the YM. The pt3 didn't hold but another less steep channel formed with another pt3. Also, if you entered on bar 4, on a BO of bar 3, this would have been a long entry. Hope this helps, -Mike

    Here are my charts so far, both YM and ES. Tried something a little different today. Tried to do a complete annotation job on the YM. I don't know if this is what we should be doing as far as annotating the YM in conjunction with the ES but I thought I'd try. One thing I found out, my...

    Spyder- When Monday started, the first thing I noticed was volume was not even to extraordinary levels. Thinking I was on a bad Qcharts server, I switched, but found the volume was correct. I then thought, this is going to be a 'slow' day (ie, low volatility and high risk, therefore sitting...

    Spyder- Now that I am caught up with all the journals, and have been annotating the ES for 2 months, let me say thank you for your generosity. My trades over the last week specifically have improved dramatically, as I am less anxious. Also, I managed to 'hold' when required as I could...

    Spyder- Just a heads up on your ES chart today. I see you were on server 2 out of mia. If you try server 5 out of sc8, the volume during the first hour is greater. I haven't noticed if guassians are affected, but could be a consideration in the future. -Mike

    Hey dkm, Missed you in today's chat. I don't think it important to have all our channels the same. When I started doing the charts, I was concerned that mine didn't look the same as Spyder's. But I realized it didn't matter. Only that I was on the right side of the market. For...

    Pedro- Don't worry so much about the flaws, we will learn about those latter in the year. Please go back to the first pages of this journal and set your chart up according to the insructions. ie no indicators, we are not using them on future charts. The gaussians are critical to this...

    You're welcome, I hope to see others soon and perhaps some critique of mine as well. I got it from the journal early on. See attachment. The Qcharts server I was on at the start had the wrong volume. A big thanks to dkm in the chat room today for getting me straight. I noted it on bar...
