Hi Malcolm the the high volume up thrust on the 1hr at 7am does this signify a short term down trend possibly back down to 157.00 area

what do you think

Nice work using the Median, my preferred averaging method. Adding fibo to it is even smarter, how come I did not think of that
The Median on a large Samplesize (1000) may be a bit too flat, Id choose a shorter period (with my knowledge of the Median that is. I read MQ4, but program Easylanguage)

Carefull when comparing days. Try

1) momentarily trend may include a dip on V[1] !
V > V[1] AND V > V[2]

2) for a continuous trend, less frequent, locate power days
V > V[1] AND V[1] > V[2]

See the difference for yourself

Cheers, Dutchy

Great stuff Yuppie!

Do you find that trading the futures gives cleaner signals and more often? Those are real volumes I heard. Well, thick volume should be fine on the spot, it shows the activity I know, I am just curious.

Thank you zoli.

Yes, I have been watching EUR/USD futures for the last couple of weeks.

I have been watching EUR/USD on ODL forex with tick-volume a lot longer.

So far, I have found the futures data to be quite a bit more accurate (well, as best as I can guage with my limited experience) that the volume I have been getting from ODL.

Also of note, I use ODL as I find it to be one of the more accurate tick-volume providers.


So yes, from my experience, clearer signals are given using the futures data. But more often? Can't really answer that one yet.


Magnus


p.s. I'll see if I can rustle up an example or two. I would actually be interested to see some conclusive difference myself.

I've been using my broker's charting lately (MBtrading) because it's an ECN and the volumes seem pretty close to eSignal, but I also use FXPRO (which I know some people here have said not to use) and the volume is comparable.

You would know that IBFX has been having wacky volumes as of late.

It has been recommended to use FXCM.

And yes there is a difference.

I’m live IBFX & demo FXCM.

Hope it helps all.
I trade what I see on my charts. Do Not listen to the Muppets.

Coming from the two who have contributed so much, thank you. Shamus, I would suggest we wait for a few days until anymore "bug" reports come in and are resolved before linkning it. Thank you again.



Lumesh.. Very well said. Excellent information for people to keep in mind. Volume is there for a reason. In order to make good trading decisions it's crucially important to know what that reason is. One of those "personal discretion" items. Thank You.



Grath:

[color=blue]Thanks...

If i move the chart for change the size i have problem to see correct the data space.
Is possible to fix this?
Also i saw the indi repaint if i reload the chart or click ok on indi window setting.

I've heard lately people like Malcolmb and others saying good things about ibfx's demo, while Shamus and others say the opposite...

I've said it before, let's get something straight:
From what I've seen and tested, ibfx 4 digit demo is perfectly ok; ibfx 5 digit demo has wacky volumes.
I repeat, that's what I've seen and tested... feel free to judge and test yourselves.

(Just to make it clear, as these opposite statements from two of the most important participants of this thread may get people confused).

Yes the 5 digit switchover caused the problem (not sure why but it happened at roughly the same time) so the 4 digit should be fine. To avoid the confusion of which to choose (ibfx 4 or 5 digit) with newer people I just say use fxcm.

Sorry for the confusion.
