Ok, I'm set up. Does it count in real time? Does it give a percent value of the increase over previous bar? I'm to excited to wait until Monday to see it work.

Wow, nice detective work. What do you mean when you say it charts the dollar value of the two positions? Like, the value of the two positions combined, or one line on the chart for each position? Another idea-- perhaps there is some way to code an elaborate "paint bar" function in QT that would display a STR/SQU indicator right on the ES price chart...
Hey, anyway I can use Spyder's formula with Tradestation 8? I know how to color the volume and such but it seems like I'm missing out on some other things like PRV and stuff. Help!
Try adding one more step... 1. Create a portfolio 2. share long of YM07M 3. share short of INDU 4. has $CASH of -X 5. chart the TOTAL of that portfolio
I got to use the QT prv function Fri. and it works perfectly. Nice job Eric on getting that added, really is a nice feature. ES and YM prv both in the right place to watch it. Looks like QT will now standard equipment.
Sorry for the confusion, it charts the dollar value of the portfolio (long YM / short INDU). I am unfamiliar with the paint bar function... but I will look into it, thanks for the suggestion. Excav8tr
Tell them they have another paying subscriber for sure if str/sq is added to QT Or in other words: the feature of graphing the difference between two symbols. Not a ridiculous feature to have I think for serious charting software. regards, Ivo
