decision time.. close for 10+ green ones. or wait for 40 80 120.. it may get close to s/o at 117.73/74.. that's normal. the object is to take out lows. it gives more fuel.

Here's, what I've been looking at from the beginning. To put it mildly, the train is close to a station... a bit late.

Access to data, permanently at best.
Well data is easy to find but for the charts you need either a decent charting platform that allows you custom charts (check some demos at least to have a reference) or maybe asking one of the MT4 experts around to code it for you. IMO, it doesn't sound that that difficult to do it using intraday data and I am guessing i will help a lot of people around with the same problems....

In any, case, exhausted here. Lots of micro screen time and TA work today. Neither euro or Cable left the entry zones (which is a pain the ass for the roll), ES smooth and well behaved just waiting for Citi tomorrow for momentum move in my view, Oil ok but didn't took off with enough power to trail, and Gold very very slow also inside entry zone...

Lots of work and micromanaging today without pay ... Managing stops or closing positions depending on close/rolls (euro 1.329x, cable 1.600x, ES 1470.x, already defined Gold 1679 and Oil 94.1x)

I need a viable solution for situations when access to these pesky demo-accounts is not available. At the moment, I can't open any new accounts.

I experimented a bit with Excel's charting capabilities and data from Ducascopy, Yahoo! etc. Works okay, but maintenance is a bit tedious. I need the visual help of a chart, just a table makes me dizzy...

You can try my charting platform but I am not sure about a long term demo in it. Option 1, If you just need NY close aligned, is a lot easier as lots of brokers will provide the EOD data with NY close. Try Ninjatrader for free with a demo that should do the trick setting the settings clock at the right time. Option 2 try to bypass the daily EOD data via intraday charts (some charting platforms allow this) meaning plot a 1440 min chart. Option 3, Ask Kill or Ken if they can give you a hand in MT4, Option 5 pay for charting ...

Hi Hatch,

am not sure what you are looking for. Find attached an indicator, where you can determine the TF as well as the starting time /time zone of the candle
