    I had a go at it but I think it's imposable to get the text to stop scrolling to the left on every tick. The Text_New and text_setlocation functions use time to horizontally position the text.
    Maybe a better coder than I has found a way to do it but I've never found the code.
    It is a shame that MC doesn't have a T&S window.

  2. Serious question . . . how does one utilize Time & Sales (knowing how fast it moves inside high volume markets) to give one an edge for your trading.

    Serious question somewhat off topic. To give a simple and quick answer when trading grains I use it to judge speed and size which helps define if real supply or demand are coming in or not. I find this useful others may not.

  6. It's in the Databases file. Are you using XP or Vista?

  8. If it is the same place that it is in XP then you will find it here:

    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\TS Support\MultiCharts\Databases\

    It is made up of 3 files, save then as a whole in the Databases folder.

  9. If anyone is using Vista, here's the location to get at your database files:

    %allusersprofile%\Application Data\TS Support\MultiCharts\Databases

    Paste that in the run command.
