    Why so hard on indicators?

    Interesting thread... In my current setup, I do not have a single indicator. Not even volume all tho I recognize and read it ASAP due to the immediate effect it causes. I guess if I were to have an indicator, it would be any leading indicator although many indicators can be made leading using...

    The second item is the day specified on the chart. It appears in the bottom left hand corner as jumbled letters. I've attached a chart of the detail. Nonetheless, great job guys.

    The last tick interval looks great guys. At the very least, I thought I could report back as a QA tester. There are 2 very minor items I noted. The release details specify that the gridlines are now non-shifting. In checking this feature, I observed that the scroll rate of the gridlines slightly...

    Mathematics skills for discretionary trading.

    Kewl... OK. The binary sequencing is simple enough. In class at the undergrad level, we did synchronous programming which can be translated right onto PLA's (programmable logic arrays) if I remember correctly. Asynchronous stuff is where we throw out the clock for efficiency (my girlfriend aced...

    OK Grob109. I know and recognize ur stuff is one of excellence and I've been trying to fill in the holes that I cannot recognize. I recognize ur means of transference and thus would like to ask a few Q's. Conceptually, I can see the tip of what is on the table and recognize that there is a...

    Why Can't I Trade with the Trend

    There is a slight adjustment in High/Low values depending on how High/Low information is evaluated by your chart app. However, I haven't noticed any adverse affect on my trading decision points. Note well that those decision points is within the 1 min bars. Timely, NO?

    Why Can't I Trade with the Trend

    Absolutely do trade off of them. IMO, there's nothing magical about them nor latent. It just visually fixes my app so that my clumsy brain doesn't panic with visual info I continually scan for since I'm a nwb in every sense of the word. I push 200 shares of GOOG w/o a prob and compound the...

    Why Can't I Trade with the Trend

    No Problem. GLAD TO EXPLAIN.... :cool: Before I get flamed for these things, I want to say that I noted one thing about indicators. They operate (note I didn't say work) on the last tick of the bar. Truth of the matter is that no individual tick should be regarded so highly when the entire bar...

    Why Can't I Trade with the Trend

    I essentially identify change by looking at the MACD (5/13/6). It is a nearly exact replica of the price movement (ie, it paralles the price movement). If not, like a camera, I refocus the zoom (tick period) until the graph becomes as sharp as possible (scalpers tend to distort images so I limit...

    Why Can't I Trade with the Trend

    Some posts back, several people talked about emotions. Yes YES, I'm a nwb so I understand. I literally took the plunge 2.5 weeks ago. I had only one losing day, the first entirely due to emotions. I debriefed myself right thru the night until I identified the problem and simplified where to look...

    Thx spyder. I absolutely look forward to getting to the stage of enabling others full time as you and jack have. My only fear now is quitting my day job... :D I have a vested and unvested interest there.

    OMGoodness... I have nearly lost my breath... I saw jack in these boards... This is great! Also for the record, I've pulled the trigger and I'm doing it for real! 1 Day of loss (the first day when you realize your own emotions - fear factoresque), all the rest profitable... I'm in the High...

    MedVed QuoteTracker Software

    No problem at all. I don't mind being a tester, this is in fact a beta release and as a developer, I understand what beta implies, "work in progress". In any event, I attached a recent annotation of the minor detail. Thx again.

    Thx Terr. I appreciate the consideration for the tick rate (speed/velocity) option. I agree, it should be turned off by default as are many of the options that I have selected in my own personal QT layout. Again, it's a wishful item and I would code it myself if I had the source code :cool:. It...

    My medved layout in case anyone was interested... Most of the indicators there are unnecessary, they are there for keeping emotions in check... Also this is on a 17" widescreen (1440x900 pixel res).
