    About daily channels - I don´t know if you still have problems getting them from the historical chart to the intraday chart?
    I don´t have any historical datafeed so i draw them directly on the intradaychart by setting the time so that one bar shows one day. Isn´t it that simple or am i missing something? then you don´t have any problem with trying to move the trendchannel from one chart to another.

  2. Unfortunately with Ensign Windows, what you get for historical data is a chart based on a specifici, unchangeable time frame. i.e. - you get a 30, 60, daily, weekly, etc. chart, and in order to see a different time frame, you have to open a different chart.

    It's counter intuitive when you think about it from the user perspective - "I have data, let me see it as tick, or 1 minute, or 5 minute...." But when you look at it from the company's perspective, it makes a bit more sense. "Lets not pipe all the tick data to people all the time, and then build a chart from that. Lets just pipe bar data based on the timeframe they choose."

    Definately a pain...

    No, but I did not keep a trading log real time, so by the time I completed it at the end of day I felt debriefed.

    I have one of Jack's debrief charts (attached) but not sure where I got it from. It refers to yellow and green bars and refers to an Appendix C. Do you have a link to the explanation of how to use this?

  5. Sure thing - I don't quite understand the instructions, so I was hoping for an example to RE (reverse engineer) from. :D

  6. Absolutely - what an eye opener too. When that rocket started up near the top of bar 4, (not far from the right ST line) I thought "I don't expect this to go far."

    (Note - I shifted this to the left so far to cover up all the junk from yesterday - too distracting for posting.)

    Yup, 60 min...

    I entered on the rocket signals and exited on the right line. +2.5 pts.

  8. Grats Sulli!

    That ST channel is a work of art...

    (no, not my charting :) )

  9. While I believe this was to everyone, I'll definately take ownership of this post. Done.

    Jack, it seems like every time you post you are opening up a full treasure chest and saying "Here - help yourself."

    Thanks :D

    PS - the volatility paragraph made a few things "click."

    i was looking at that 60-min channel too but on ym, it´s working nice.

    Is this a valid h&s or is it too "messy"?
