Hi all.

The chart setup I use (free) has default settings for MACD of 12 26 9. Can anyone tell me if this is OK for a 30M chart

Thanks

There are several settings relating to the MACD if you use the search feature on the left side. You will find that settings differ from one trader to another. Check out MT4 charts which are excellent if your not already using them. They are free too.

Good Luck!

the best mt4 charts (mt5 out soon) that i've found, are at alpari-idc.ru. this is the russian alpari site.

you get a million currency pairs, stocks (cfds; contract for difference (tks for the correction; i was thinking cds!?)), indexes, and more.

you can chart the dollar(#DXY). you get gold and oil (#QM), and the major dji stocks. all are realtime, except the dollar, which is half-hour delayed.

2:00 on the chart is GMT 0. 14:00 on the chart is 8:00 am EST DST. the server time is 6 hours ahead of EST and 2 hours ahead of GMT.

they have many back-up servers and the demo does not expire; they should be charging for this.

if anyone has a better mt4 demo provider i'd like to hear it.

CFD stands for "Contract for Difference" and is not comparable to futures nor is it a special Euro thing. You can trade them in Asia Canada or South Africa too.
