Hi, This code will give you both. If you make enough it will stop, and if you lose too much it will stop as well. If you do not want to use the loss, just put there 10000000 {***************************** Check For Daily Profit/Loss **************************} Input: Profit_For_Day (500); Input: Loss_For_day (300); Vars: TradeSwitch (True); If Date <> Date[1] Then Begin Value10 = NetProfit; TradeSwitch = True; End; If (NetProfit - Value10) >= (Profit_For_Day) or (NetProfit - Value10) <= -(Loss_For_day) Then TradeSwitch = False; If TradeSwitch = True Then Begin //Your trade conditions here end; www.linetrol.com . . .

Use PaintBar instead of ShowMe Example code: [size="2"][font="Arial"] Input: Length(100); Input: TrigAvg(20); Input: UpColor(Green); Input: DnColor(Magenta); Var: back(0); Var: xAvg(0); Var: xTime(0); xAvg = XAverage (xTime, TrigAvg) ; xTime = TimeSeriesForecast (Length, 0); If close crosses above xAvg then PlotPaintBar( High, Low, Open, Close, "Cross", UpColor , 0, 2 ) ; If close crosses below xAvg then PlotPaintBar( High, Low, Open, Close, "Cross", DnColor , 0, 2 ) ; [/font][/size]

What Isn't Gann's Method More Readily Avaliable?

Hi RXS0005 There is no setup that will be valid today and 1 week from today. If you backtest a strategy with any of the average cross, it will not, or make really small profits - commission. Frankly... average cross can not be taken as the main entry point for your trading plan... But, if you really want to use the average, then it all depends on what you trade and how. If you position trader during the day, then longer period is a must; shorter for scalpers. Even 200 days average can be used as the entry signal, but most important is money management, and filters, that will keep you out during choppy markets, because the averages loose there most.

Hi My name is Lukas, so him And yes, it worked for me. Since you can place automatic profit and stop loss order, the chance that you will be out let say at NASDAQ 10 times in a row (with loss) is smaller than a situation, when half or 65% of the trades will be unprofitable, and the rest on +. So I do not think it is a math science at this point. And I do not agree about the trading for 2 years to become profitable. I know people that trade for 4 years, and they still can not achieve the results they want. If you use stop loss with TS, I do not think that the losing part has something to do with skills you have or experience. Just go in, set stop 2 tick, profit 6 ticks. That is it. Lukas

No... at all. You red something wrong... In order to have tradestation free, you need to trade 10 rounds futures a month or 5000 shares a month, and then you do not have to pay the $99 fee. Also, to trade futures you need only $5k in account. Nothing more. What you can do, you can buy or sell 10 contracts a month and it's completly free.

Hi Bill, The best scanner to find stocks I know is included in Tradestation - Radarscreen. You can scan the stocks live or daily etc., using all the possible technical analysis. But it depends on what exactly you are looking for.

Hi Drew, Do you mean this website? - Dynamic Traders - Home Tradestation is the best in the business for charting, strategy development, for creating custom indicators and for scanning hundreds of stocks. And in the scanner you can use all the technical analysis available, not only stoch. You can even scan for candlesticks patterns... there are lots of possibilities...

Maybe this question is strage, meybe funny, coincidence? Did we have the Great Depression because of the Heroin ban? Little History Historians most often attribute the start of the Great Depression to the sudden and total collapse of US stock market prices on October 29, 1929, known as Black Tuesday. However, some dispute this conclusion, and see the stock crash as a symptom, rather than a cause of the Great Depression. Poison Act in 1907 making it a crime to sell opiates without a prescription, and bans on possession of opium or opium pipes in 1909. This mostly took place in 1910-11. A bottle of Bayer's heroin. Between 1890 and 1910 heroin was sold as a non-addictive substitute for morphine. It was also used to treat children with strong cough Metcalf Coca Wine was one of a huge variety of wines with cocaine on the market Everybody used to say that it would make you happy and it would also work as a medicinal treatment. Mariani wine (1875) was the most famous Coca wine of it's time. Pope Leo XIII used to carry one bottle with him all the time. He awarded Angelo Mariani (the producer) with a Vaticangold medal. Produced by Maltine Manufacturing CompanyofNewYork. It was suggested that you should take a full glass with or after every meal... Children should take half a glass. A paper weight promoting C.F. Boehringer & Soehne ( Mannheim , Germany ). They were proud of being the biggest producers in the world of products containing Quinine and Cocaine. No comments. Cocaine tablets (1900) All stage actors, singers, teachers and preachers had to have them for a maximum performance. Great to "smooth" the voice. Very popular for children in 1885. Not only did they relieve the pain, they made the children happy! I'm sure this would make them sleep well (not only the Opium, but 46% alcohol!) That's 92 proof! Do you realize that most of our spirits (gin, vodka, scotch, etc.) are 80 proof! CMJ No wonder they were called The Good Old Days!!

Is the Vol Bar simillar? I am also not sure... Pic included

If you use tradestation, you have the same bars in the Matrix - right?
-
Just go to Format Indicator, then Scaling, and find there "Custom Decimal Places" - chang to 3 and it should work they way you want. Also, using this word "round", gives you the ability to round the number to 3 decimals in the code: plot1( round(close, 3));

Identifying Important Support and Resistance Levels
zapisy replied to martinguitar's topic in Technical Analysis
First, it all depends on what you are trying to take from the market. If you trade longer, day positions, you need to look at a completely different time frame than when you scalp. But it my opinion, I would always look at all charts at the same time, does not matter what, and how you trade. Because when you scalp one minute, you may not see the major support or resistance, that is present on 60 min, daily, weekly or monthly. That is why, you should always look at the longer charts as well; even when you scalp for 3 ticks. Most people use 3,5,15,30, 60 min chats to trade. So at this point, you should follow them as well. This way you would never be surprised, once you get in to opposite trade at the major S or R. Also, I would always use 5 min chart besides the other ones, like ticks, ranges etc, because 5 min is not too long, not too short, and shows the market behavior. It's like breakout of 200 MA on daily chart. If you scalp, you can go in at any support or resistance. If you count for more ticks, points, you do not have to go at the breakout all the time. Because the price tends to go back for a while anyway. It depends on how strong the volume is. Some people do not use charts at all. They use price of the day before, 5 min before etc. It all depends on how you like to trade, and what you have to know/see. You can even scalp based on daily chart... There are no strict ways of how you trade, because it is at some point an art. You have to create your own picture with your own imagination of what you like and where you feel comfortable. Let us know how you trade and what you are looking for. -
Hi, Close can be above 200 MA, for long time. You need a condition that will state only one situation. Like: If close crosses above AvgExp200 then buy 3 contracts next bar at market; Also, check other values you have, because even with this code, it should not buy below MA. What time frame you use?

Can you post the whole code? You can create an indicator, and once you select "new indicator" make sure that in the next window you check RadarScreen. Any more explanation? Lukas

Money Management says Hi We all had the same lesson before we understood why the stop loss is "Saint" Rule #1: "First Loss is the best loss" No hope and dreams. Rule #2: "Never add to your losses" Rule #3: "The market is always right" Rule #4: "Decide every day, how much you want to lose in the single day" Few year ago, I printed the rules and had them every day in front on me... Do not worry Good days will come Lukas

I will always recommend IBM (lenovo now). Not fancy, but the technology is there once you take it apart. Look always at the screen resolution minimum 1450 wide. HDD it's up to you, but 7200 RPM is recommended. At lest Dual Core - Always! And the best is Intel... RAM minimum 2GB And if there is a possibility, look at the graphic card, to have not integrated and not Intel, etc. Must be radeon or something else, but not integrated. Also google for "laptops for traders", there are many choices.

Where you trade now? How many cotracts you trade a month? The only platform that has something like DOM is tradestation called MATRIX.
