Software Used to Trade Jack Hershey Methods

It would be nice if QT had a legend you could set up to access commonly used text and line colors.

QT's text drives me bananas -- it would help ALOT if the size were NOT graphical but set by font -- I hate re-sizing my text when all I wanted to do was move a TL... and there's no CTL-Z UNDO!!

Actually it might be just as fast to be able to pop-up a text field with CTL-A -- and when you close it you are still in line draw mode. Since one uses the keyboard for text anyway...

Would that be OK?

At what settings do you have those audio alerts configured?

example: I have declining volume programmed.

if Volume < Volume[1] then playsound("Prepare_to_Revert_to_Dominant_Traverse.wav");

Ohhhh, so many questions!

Volume (of current bar or only at bar close?) compared to the previous Vol bar ... wouldn't you hear this ALOT?
Do I understand correctly?

Have you programmed alerts for IF1/IF2 ?
I am starting to think I should... if I figure out how.

What software do you use Tums?

I am using Multicharts. It is a Tradestation clone that can execute Easylanguage scripts.

I am looking to move to Neoticker. I think it has more capabilities.

What I have given you is an example. You can fine tune it with more conditional parameters.

No.

Perhaps I am the only one with this problem on QT, but I would like the "sweet spot" for picking up lines either smaller or adjustable. I am constantly getting line "B" when I try to click on line "A" to adjust it.

If you are giving Jerry a JHM/Spyder enhancement list you might consider this if it is a problem to others.

I realised I had already done this on my charts before getting into the IF2 stuff in detail.

I use paintbars to colour the volume pane background depending on whether price went up relative to the prior bar (grey), down (pink), inside (no color) or outside (light blue). I also colour the volume bars based on the prior bar close. That gives me the IF1 visibly as when price goes up beyond prior bar close the volume bar is black, down red and level grey.

It hasn't been a problem for me, but I can certainly pass along the idea.

I wouldn't mind seeing an undo button like someone else wrote. That could easily fix some goof ups with the lines.
