I see.... well I feed TS with esignal data, never got that problem....

is it the one from leveragefx (topgunsoftware) ? their cumulative tick looks very nice...

Brown : check on the symbol format if volume is based on ticks or volume....(should be on volume) because the volume indicator will use any of both depending on the symbol format setting.... hope helps cheers Walter.

nice cooter, I see you are using the cumulative delta ¡¡¡ do you have any programing skills ? , I wanted to create a cumulative delta that would start acumulating on the first bar of every session till the end of the session, thought I didnt make it.... cheers Walter.

are you guys refering to ag minis or just plain ag`s.... I am curious, never traded this market. thanks Walter.

no cooter : an internal is a breath statistical index from a sector of the market.... there are very diferent aproaches on the construction of internals, but the idea is to know the overrall market sentiment thru this indexes.... foroil... I dont know.... what "market" context would apply...

Yes Jennifer, that could also be called Coils or rectangles, now that is derived from price action itself, I think the "term" balance area cand be used also for being inside vah and val.... so in that case you will be monitoring the break outside vah and val.... not a price action coil.... cheers Walter.

nasdaq : can you share symbols or how to get that internal data, will be interesting to take a look... thanks Walter.

Bear : can you show us some charts, otherwise its very dificult to interact... thanks Walter.

I am curious to see an Oil chart.... intraday.... thanks Walter.

I want to know if there is any regulations regarding to the profiles pictures, I am personally disturbed by this new diablo member (malvado xetra) we have and his profile picture, it is quite against some of my personal beliefs.... could this ( in honor to some sensible members) be regulated... I would aprecciate much... At this forum we are traders and not devils.... that devil picture has certain ocultist simbology, and it is ofensive to many sensibilities, including mine. Thanks Walter.

malvado : your icon doesnt inspire me at all.... yes a chart will make more clear your explanation...

Nice technical indicators there Knit¡¡¡ jejejeje..... sweet sweet stations guys... cheers Walter.

yes vlad, you can use it on forex tick charts.... it is a very interesting way to measure a sinthetic volume on forex.... cheers Walter.

well no rocket cience, that would be timing entries with an internal.... lot of people trade that way.... any way can get tricky.... think internals should only be a backup analisis....

I receive their free videos and I like to learn how they use internals, what is interesting, and here you can detect how professional they are in the fact that they put to work their internals the days that can be used.... that means they do have the abilty to understand market conditions and what weapons to use on does conditions.... newbie traders tend to take a method and they expect to use it from monday to friday... lol, this bussiness doesnt work like that, what you use today may be uselless tomorrow.... cheers Walter.

Horus : can you explain what the odball does, never heard about it, thanks Walter.

I have a question : what interpretation do you have for the smaller overall volume of 4/4 and even smaller 5/4.... on this up move.... thanks Walter.

Hello traders ¡¡ today has been a nice day to relax and enjoy this holiday, In relaxed fashion I become more contemplative and I use to make some reflexions on my trading career... its interesting that most people are thinking how to autoimpose their ideas autoconvincing themselves about some NEW MODERN trading concept...(including myself).... I found out that the best reflexion comes to remind yourself how did you make money consistently thru the years and remind yourself what technicall aspect gave you the edge in terms of dollars on your acct and not the hype sometimes we can have around very new and wow wow super modern original stuff.... it happens to me almost all the time... and probably I will need to make some decision, consagration event, maybe wear a ring to remind me or like kung fu take a hot iron on my skin, I dont know but as an indicator junki and addict I did not make a penny, BUT my KISS aproach I learned almost 7 years ago... that ALWAYS gave me money... jejejej thanks the Lord always I come to trade my original, and let me say maybe boring aproach.... but whats trading anyway ?... is it being original? new stuff that gets you exited ? always upgrading yourself and coming to the sad conclusion that you have more mambo jambo on your head ? WHATS TRADING ? its simply making money (period). its not being hyped, exited, auto impressed.... etc etc ... you trade to end each week with more dollars into your acct.... thats what trading its all about.... so coming back to my reflexion and making some balance, my old boring and simple no hype aproach has made me succesfull in this hard arena where very few succeed... My old aproach is based on the M phenomena.... simple, markets have a cyclical nature and M (W ) are patterns that give you and amazing edge on timing your trades.... now some unexperienced trader may tell you the oposite and start showing you all the failed M`s.... well poor him... he is loosing a great oportunity to understand a great timing concept that MUST be considered on the context of a "market climate" wich can be divided into two big categories: Momentum Climate (trending) and Cyclical Climate (non trending) wich can be detected very easy with a simple perception of the market speed (maybe thats a tape reading concept) but I learned to see on very small tick charts.... now M`s are a high percentage "pattern" that work very well on the correct context.... let me make this simple : where do M`s dont work or have a very low chance of working, that is on a very high trending moves.... you dont wont to take m`s there.... now on a choppy day.... m`s are GREAT ¡ you can make your entire week objective on a choppy day just taking the m`s.... and let me tell you we statistically have more choppy days than trending days.. so that makes m`s even more reliabale as a pattern... you may ask What M`s.... well there are so many M`s and you may want to look for YOUR M`s.... you see the phenomena is universal, wich means that you can see it from a tick chart to a minute or daily, whatever.... they are there.... maybe on this thread we can share M`s from each and other traders perspectives.... the phenomena is there, it depends on you if you want to capitalize on it.... cheers Walter.

vlad : it took me about 1 1/2 year to understand the market ... no one trade... just looking at it .... with that understanding I did develop my aproach wich today gives me a nice result... so its not imposible, its just a matter of optimism and actitude, also belief and the fact that there is a lot people that made it.... its posible... cheers Walter.

vlad... delta is the analisis of bid/ask volume.... how much buying volume vs selling volume... that site I show on previous post has some indicators that emulate synthetically (pretty well) a delta on forex... cheers Walter.

Hey Kiwi Wikipedia has nice things men ¡¡ even you can learn chartpatterns jejejej..... ok very good conclusions, now can somebody start a good sound technicall thread, so we can enjoy ourselves with some good TA ¡¡¡ ?? jejeje good trading today¡¡ cheers Walter.

Yes true, Price drives indicators and not oposite, that doesnt mean indicators are not good helpers to understand price... some times make your life easier... no alergia to indicators, yes alergia to indicators idolatry... if you feel unconfortable with a price derivative (indicator), you will also most probably feel unconfortable with price himself...

Stupid semantics.... we are all technicians.... lol.. :p

yes probably we would get into a stupid semantic discussion of what is TA .... now being an indicator junki and not understanding what the market its doing would be the negative TA interpretation, as being wise of what the market does and use a pair of good sound tools would be the positive TA interpretation... I think we all agree with that... put the name you more like it... but thats the lesson here... cheers Walter.
