Flier, If you use Volume with an average, TS will color the volume bars based on an up bar, down bar or a white bar when the current bar close equals the previous bar close. With the chart open, go to "Insert " => Indicator and select Volume Avg. In the "format" for that indicator, you will be able to set the colors for the bars, the color for the average line and the length of the average. Hope this helps...JD

Here's a trick I enjoy with FBO (reverse). It seams as though you have much of the fundamental stuff down cold. Because I am very tight with my channels, I probably get many more FBOs then most folks do on extended length trends. So, in order to ride the ful length of the trend and therefore not get hung up on whether or not I will squeeze out the majority, I then FBO/REVERSE and get back on the right side. I admit tho, the FBO/REV can eat up ticks. However, it also conveniently handles laterals. Just take a look without jumping in... In other words, see how you can handle an FBO by scratching out the tick or two and sticking with the previous right side... MAK
My chart for this morning. Trading was not very easy because of the quick changes. I was anticipating a short the whole time and it was obvious it was going to happen but the question was when... We had increasing price but volume decreasing so that was the clue we were in a down channel but we needed increasing red for price to really go down. This happened at around 11:16 IMO. Also my bias for the day was down because of the gap but then I should have looked better at the first few bars. There was vol expansion (carryover channel) and the bars on YM as well as ES ended far away from RTL from carryover channel (ES was even a green one). regards, Ivo <IMG SRC="http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=1394716">
