Quote from Tums:

you have to ask yourself: is this tool/signal/indicator/line assisting me to make a trading decision ?

That's what I'm trying to figure out. If it's beneficial or if it's hurting my trading, It's too soon to tell. If it's wrong though, then I would stop immediately and that's why I'm asking.

Quote from Pr0crast:

FYI, I think I just got the Medved brothers to code an update for Quotetracker that will add a sort of bouncing-ball-like indicator that superimposes an outline of the PRV over the active volume bar. Will update when I know more!



PS-- summary v3 will arrive soon...

Alright folks, here it is... straight from the horse's mouth... In the future it will probably be included in software updates, but for now you can follow these instructions:

Quote from Mike Medved:

Please take the file http://download.quotetracker.com/download/stocks.zip unzip it into your QuoteTracker directory to replace the STOCKS.EXE there (make sure you're not running QT at the time), then run it.

The Volume and Volume+EMA will now have a checkbox in parameters for projection. Projected volume only works with normal and tick charts, of course, since it is meaningless for others.

Here's a snag of it in action:

Here my complete chart for the day.

The yellow area confused me very much. I was long since the FTT right before that. YM showed at that moment a very clear FTT with a lot of red volume. On ES it looked like FBO.....

Is it because we never got a strong squeeze value during this period?

edit: On my ES chart yellow area is wrong, should be two bars further. Nevertheless same story. YM seemed to show the mother of all FTT's. Although on ES that was not such a special bar the YM leads ES so I thought but in this case I wish I hadn't looked at YM.

Ivo

Ivo,

On my chart I show it as a FTT also, missed the LTL by one tick it looks to me.
