Quote from Pr0crast:

Err.... notation tools? You mean annotation tools, like to draw lines, shapes, and text?

Yes - I was thinking notes. Note taking is what I meant (ftt, 1,2,3, etc,,,).

I have been corrected - QT does handle text notes. Maybe I will give it a try now. :)
 
Quote from Pr0crast:

I'll give asking them a shot later this summer... in the meanwhile, anyone who wants the STR/SQU feature in QT, SAY SO if you haven't already. I think the Medveds can be swayed by a perception of demand. In my next lobbying effort if I have posts to link to as evidence of this, it might help.

I would be happy with just being able to track the spread on the Quote page---I have asked them about it twice now and they say it's coming in future updates.

I would encourage you to post your charts, and share your insights.
 
I took the morning off today to use Jerry's new indicator real time in Quotetracker. WOW, having that visual markedly improved my performance.

I also dropped Jerry a thank you note for his efforts.

Yes, a Quotetracker [YM-INDU-user set constant] indicator would be the cat's meow!

Then a DOM with stalagtites and were done!~ :D

Thanks pr0crast too!

Yes, I noticed an improvement in my EQ (calm) having the PRV on the chart itself. Amazing what a difference it makes having the right tools in front of you. Minor changes in required effort have a big effect. Like a HUD in an F16... well I can dream :D.

Since we're on the subject of QT (and Jerry might read this):
1. projection of trendlines on historic charts (equities)
2. annotate trades executed to charts automatically from the IB/other trade log

This can be done....

1 set up a separate portfolio call it strech squeeze
2 Enter in symbol for YM then symbol for INDU
3 in the quantity field enter a 1 for YM (Long position)
4 in the quantity field enter a -1 for INDU (Short position)
5 save the portfolio
6 once you bring up that quote page the difference between the two will show as the Total.

voila you now have the numerical offset real time and showing.... you can chart it by right clicking the number and select intraday chart..... but the problem is it charts the dollar value of the two positions.......ughhh!!!!! So close but yet so far away :) And a BIG thanks to Pro for the work on getting PRV calcs on the charts!!
