    Open E Cry Alerts

    That's not the issue -- I'm trying to write the "code" in proper syntax to be able to generate the alert. Not sure how to do that.

    I'm trying to set some alerts on charts in Open E Cry but I don't know the proper way to "code" my alert criteria. Can anyone help with this? Thanks!

    Chaos Mathematics Calls the top in the DOW

    Pandoras: Thanks for your post. I use some similar things that alert me to "extreme" points in the market. They at least help me assess when I want to be a little more cautious or be alert to a change in trend. I'm attaching a chart just so you can see the similarities. Also, we're pretty...

    metastock metastock.com

    I use Metastock EOD. I have not tried the real-time version. I like it and it is helpful for me. I'm getting ready to try the real-time version of Tradestation. Given the fact that you basically can get Tradestation for free with a nominal level of trading activity, I think that may make...

    GANN and FIB ??????

    If I recall correctly, Ms. Brown doesn't give much information on how she actually uses Gann. "Tilt?" (I hate when she keeps saying that in her book!) If you want to learn more about Gann, you might want to check out Michael S. Jenkins' work. That being said, I don't believe Gann is the...

    I Have Not Seen So Much Bullish Sentiment Since 1999

    I don't think it's really "frenzied" yet, though. Still a lot of people calling for a correction or not participating in the rally.

    Interesting Indicator

    I've been working on an indicator that signals pivot points with great accuracy on 5-minute charts except when you get big movements like today. As you can see, today was a bunch of invalid sell signals. Otherwise, though, it seems to catch a lot of the intraday highs and lows.

    What is the tax % on futures

    I guess you're off to a good start! If I recall correctly, futures profits are taxed 60% at Long-Term Capital Gains rates and 40% short-term. Anyone care to verify? So, you would have $60,000 at 15% (someone please verify) and $40,000 at the applicable rate (let's just assume 33%). That...

    Question from Newbie

    The only thing I have done is OCASSIONALLY, when I have a price projection that I'm looking for with respect to a POSITION PLAY (not just a scalp), I will place a limit order where I'm willing to enter the position. Otherwise, it's generally better to avoid the after hours, especially from...

    Tradestation vs. Open E Cry for Futures

    What is the acct. mininimum for Tradestation? The acct. minimum for Open E Cry is $5,000. I use Open E Cry -- no problems so far. The charting isn't great but I don't use their charts that much anyway.
