Disliked{quote} Howzit kerndc, Ive been looking at ways to stream my screen with voice and will get around to it one of these days. If you have a specific question you're free to PM me and I'll try to answer it.Ignored
DislikedTwo early trades on the DAX. Each for a solid +30 which ends my trading for the day. By the way, I have found that keeping the futures contract on the same screen gives excellent support for the price/entry confirmation so its worth the discussion.Ignored
Disliked{quote} Nice one HP. That's how it should be done. Please elaborate as I don't fully understand what you mean.Ignored
Disliked{quote} I've cleared up my charts to show you what I see in total. Top left is the longer term trend, helps identify the longer moves. Top middle is a candle chart I use to define areas of support and resistance. Anyone following my posts here will know the extraordinary accuracy we have been getting (almost to the pip) of areas of consolidation and expansion and this is the candle chart I use.

But, its a drop in the ocean and essential to give me the tools I need to trade. I have been using IG on their HTML platform and fills are pretty much instant, if that helps? EDIT: Quick plug, just upgraded to 12.1 on eSignal this morning and the amount of free stuff they bundle is phenomenal. There...Ignored
Disliked{quote} IG Don't have mt4, which I need for range bars as that is what I use to trade off.Ignored
Disliked{quote} Are you loading offline charts on MT4 to generate tick charts/range bars? The bit I dislike (if you hadn't sensed this already) is that you need at least 2 charts to generate one decent live chart, its a lot of heavy-lifting...Ignored
Disliked{quote} That's correct. It's not great, but that's the best I've found, that's free offcourse. I have 3 charts. One with traditional candles. I use this to get major SR levels. One that is used to feed my offline chart. Lastly the offline chart with range bar. The one I use to trade off.Ignored
