Quote from mark1:
Time and sales in IB is static, I mean you can find it when you open a chart but it is not updated in realtime, you can only see past time and sales( not sure 100%, 99% lol)
In QT you cannot highlight bid and ask outside the mkt as in Tradestation, I have the same problem with Amibroker, I'll probably write a time and sales in excel, or adapt one I already have to see this type of transations.
You have 5 columns in QT T&S
Price: when it's green it means the trade was at the Ask price, when it's red it was at the bid price.
Bid and ask are outlined red when the new bid or ask is lower than the previous and green whenthe bid or ask is higher than the previous.
Bid and ask without outline, it means they are equal to the previous bid and ask
Price white it means equal to the previous price (trade) , or between bid and ask (when you have a spread of 1 tick for example)OR OUTSIDE THE MARKET (above or below the ask or bid)
You can filter block trades for example you can filter and see only trades > 50 or whatever you like.
You can also choose to see new rows only when new trades are printed and not when new bid or ask are printed.
Good luck with understanding what i wrote
Thanks Mark. Do you think this can be used in AHG style, ? is there enough information Learning time and sales is quite difficult
Ok you waited patiently for the Grand event (lol guys , when someone feels the urge to insult me, please be my guest, I like to kid, I'm almost 40 but the little rascal in me is very strong and I like it).
Here is my last chart.
All the trades I posted are axactly how I played them and comments about what I was thinking at the moment.
Hope they help you, it takes a lot of time, but they are a great education to improve my trading.

Gotcha. Now another question re your methodology. Do u have an approximate upper limit in the NUMBER of bars in a retrace before u say "forget it" and wait for another signal. Was wondering how u handle the longer retraces where it seems u are waiting forever to get a bar with a higher low as the signal bar. Thanks, Piscuy.
Wow. I found it much tougher than yesterday. I have attached my chart, I welcome all comments on my trades.
8 trades, 4 winners and 4 losers, Gross +6 points.
If I compare myself to how your thinking your thinking a whole lot more than I do. I just wait for my signal and take it when it pops up if it feels right (Trend, TS, etc. etc.). I dont have the time nor would I like to be counting bars. If its a signal Im there if not im waiting to get one. Patience is the name of the game when trading. So be patient and play your signals.

Absolutely Anek,
I got a late start today on the ES...10am-12:30pm 12 trades-plus 17.5 points.
I used the Piscuy Scalp with the Anek Trend No-Call-Top method.
I had to run some errands with my GF because she is sick so I missed all of the afternoon rally, except +1 point at 3:50 pm.
Prior to reading thing journal I would have sat out waiting for a down reversal. But not anymore. Go with the trend until it tells you otherwise.
