    Off topic question. I played around with ensign to play back the previous days it is pretty neat. Can one play back both the YM and ES at the same time using the tick data available from the ensign website? If is is possible, how can I do it? Thanks

    Ivob, it helps to think in terms of the volume gaussians. Right before a FTT occurs, you are on the dominant traverse of the channel, what does the volume look like? Increasing red volume (because you are in a down trend). A FTT occurs (pt 1 of new up channel) and we have a non-dominant...

    I would recommend that you go back and review portions of journal I and II where the use of various chartscripts has been discussed. Pay special attention to Spyders summary in the page linked below http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=38777&perpage=6&pagenumber=343 From...

    You ran the chartscript as a scan, instead load the 4.2 script from the chartscript link and run each of your symbols against the script to get the rank, dryup volume levels, score and stop offset.

    Bear, You don't necessarily have to be trading. Just write down on a paper in real time your actions (ie your turns) as you identified your FTTs. At the end of the day you should see the number of points you would have taken. Over several days, you will see how you are performing. That...

    Personally I would keep it simple and not worry about the lunch time. MAK had posted a study of the ES point range at given volume levels and noted the riskiest entries are during the low volume periods. The graphic has been referred to several times (I think in this futures journal as...

    I don't use QCharts, but looks like it supports DDE (QLink). All you need is the DDE string for the ES volume in Cell K3. If anyone using QCharts would let me know what the DDE string is, I can update the insturctions.

    I have been notified of a few issues affecting IB folks. You can ignore if you are not using IB. I don't know why, but excel is thinking that the text of my instruction block in the spreadsheet has a DDE link and complains. Here a two ways to get past it. If 1 does not work 2 should...

    I thing I noticed between Spyders chart and my ES charts is the discrepancy in volume (I looked at the first few bars 9:30am EST onwards). My volume bars for the first 4 bars read as follows (both IB and IQFeed had the same figures) 33K, 37K, 28K and 24K. In spyder's chart, Bar 2 is...
