Yeah, HOD and LOD both are integral to my style also - though to trade effectively I need a "proximity alert," I find. Will now experiment with that... you know I wonder if they've improved the Quotes pages without happening to mention it to me. They're are a lot of neat things about TS that I've come across in much the same way you found what you were looking for. For example, one of the things I use constantly (clicking on the bid, last, or ask on Order Bar to get a limit order in that amount), I just happened to run across one day while futzing around. Like some other ease-of-use stuff, it seems to be almost buried in the documentation - unless, again, they've added it to some updated tutorial... Anyway, thanks! Used the feature today, got alerted just in the nick of time to a trade (short OVER), made some money... so I guess I owe ya!
Kymar: No problem. Glad to be of some help $$$$$ . I'm sure I will have more questions more I get into the software. For now have it just about where I want it. Missing integrated ECN books and linking. They say coming with next upgrade. Hope that soon. The tutorials just skim the surface regarding software capabilities. Documentation is less than complete. Wish it were better. Oh well just figure it out on my own. Learn more that way. mktman
Mktman, thanks for posting this info, it made my life much easier. After your post, I was trying to find other expressions that are allowed in quote alert fields, but Help contains no info on that. This is a list that I got from TS tech support: InsideBid Q_Bid InsideAsk Q_Ask Q_Offer Settlement DailyOpen Q_Open DailyHigh Q_High DailyLow Q_Low DailyClose Q_Close Last Q_Last PrevClose Q_PreviousClose PrevVolume Q_PreviousVolume Q_PrevTotalVolume High52Wk Low52Wk I haven't looked at them in detail yet, but definitely will do it soon. Hope it helps other TS users, too.
