Happy New Year everyone!

good calendar. thanks.

Had to take the 30 min CCI gh, CCI diver+100 line cross; (LS and CO TLB one bar later). Sell 43.53. Additional CCI TLBs later.

It's not a meeting. It's the release of the minutes from a previous meeting.

This is a good calendar for important economic reports and related news: http://online.wsj.com/mdc/public/page/2_3063-economicCalendar.html?mod=topnav_2_3000 There is a link to take you forward in time to 2012 near the top right.

What a good CO diver looks like:

AGQ trades from 11/8/11:

11/8 S 70.21
11/10 B 64.61
11/11 S 68.03
11/14 B 66.77
11/15 S 67.67
11/17 B 55.93
11/18 S 58.77
11/21 B 55.07
11/22 S 60.33
11/25 B 54.44
11/28 S 58.07 A very tricky one. FXA triggered much sooner
11/29 B 57.48 iH&S triggered 30 min.
12/01 S 61.50 Open HFE 30 min with LS. Weak FXA.

Another iH&S setting up! Yes, and with the gap up 12/2, it triggered. But CCI and CO held trendlines and FXA resisted the DMP; weak diver CO on FXA and diver CO on AGQ (all 30 min); so stay short.

12/5 still short AGQ. Gap up R at the DMP and daily 50 MA. EOD buy signals about to trigger though. A small gap up tomorrow may trigger them. But I still don't like the way the CO looks on various time frames.

12/6 B 56.55 CCI TLB 30 and 60 min. Gotta take these TLBs.
12/7 S 59.22 CCI TLB w/LS 30 min followed by shamu.
12/8 B 55.56 CCI TLB 60&30 min; CCI & CO divers.
12/9 S 57.83 CCI TLB 60 min w/30 min LS; weak COs
12/12 B 54.15 30 min CCI & CO TLB w/LS; diver CO
12/13 S 54.80 CCI 60 min TLB
12/13 B 54.28 CCI 60 min TLB
12/13 S 54.22 CCI 60 min TLB Shoulda just stayed short from this morning.
12/15 B 46.45 CCI 30 min TLB; triple CO diver with a prev TLB.
12/16 S 48.09 CCI 30 min TLB; prev CO TLB & diver
12/19 B 46.10 CCI 30 min TLB; prev CO TLB & diver (est., as my QT charts are screwed up)
12/20 S 48.30 CCI 30 min TLB
12/21 B 47.25 CCI 30 min TLB; also CO TLB
12/22 S 47.45 CCI 30 min TLB
12/22 B 46.90 CCI 30 min TLB
12/23 S 46.77 CCI 30 min TLB
12/29 B 39.38 CCI 30 min open HFE w/LS, CCI and CO divers; VT triggered later at a slightly worse entry.

Need to take this open HFE 30 min with nice CO diver, CCI diver, and LS in our favor: Buy 39.38.

yeah, still short.

same here. Cindy at TOS told me the same thing about getting help from them with completing paintbars.

Good luck to you too.

simplifying . . . amazing you should mention that. I took a good look at all the paintbars and indicators I have on my QT charts and asked myself if I really use these . . .I think I just got used to looking at all the stuff on my QT charts. I'll get used to simpler charts.

Well, there you go!

I may be off about the pricing. I just checked today's Kindle Deal of the Day on my computer, and they had it for the same discounted price on my Kindle. Maybe they have changed their policy. I will continue to double check, though.

Well, maybe it wasn't ready xMas day. I just saw it today. So try again.

I have an iPod touch also. The kindle a better size for reading web pages and e-mails, And of course it's a reader and you can play Netflix on it and amazon instant videos. But smaller and easier to carry around than the iPad or some other tablets.

One thing to be aware of: you may find better deals on some amazion kindle content (movies and books) if you buy them from a full computer rather than your kindle directly.

Amazon has Kindle deals of the day, really good discounts on books, but if you search for the book on your Kindle, it lists the full price. You need to buy it on a computer and then have it downloaded to your Kindle. Also, some movies I wanted to BUY were only available for RENT on my kindle, but if I searched amazon instant video on my computer, they were avaiable to buy. (After buying them on your computer they will be stored in the Amazon Cloud and will appear on your Kindle to watch or download . . .)

just some tips

I looked up iHub under apps. And there it was. (iHub Admin had told me they were working on it, so I would check for it every now and then.)

iHub app for KIndle Fire is ready. I downloaded it this morning.

Great board! WIll add to my favorites . .

iHub app for my Kindle Fire appeared. Nice.

got it. thanks.

cyn, I lost track of where that email was. Could you repost it. I'll send one today.

Thanks

thanks cyn. Happy Holidays to you.

Wish list: (1) DeMark Pivots. The ability to change the "dots" in all the pivots to a line, and the ability to change the colors of the pivot lines.

(2) The ability to overlay one indicator over another, such as adding a moving average to a indicator, or 2 or 3 different CCI lengths over each other. 2 or 3 different stochastic lengths over each other, 2 or 3 different RSI lengths over each other, etc. And make sure the SCALE of the indicators are the same (otherwise they're useless for some purposes). Even a very basic chart service like stockcharts allows one indicator to be overlaid on another.

(3) The ability to put paintbars right on the indicators that they relate to. And to choose where to put them (above, below, middle, zero line) and to choose the shape, size and color like in QT.

(4) The ability to put price chart paintbars somewhere other than above and below the candles (such as on the top of the chart or the bottom), and to choose different shapes and colors easily.

(5) A choice to express some common indicators (such as the CCI) as a histogram as well as a line.

(6) They already have some "pre-made" crossover paintbars, such as for moving averages, and the stochastic (shows when the stoch gets overbought or oversold). I want them to add the CCI to the list and all other basic oscillator-type indicators.

People shouldn't have to learn to code their own paintbars/indicators just to have some basic flexibility features.

gloe

same here, but once you have your chart set up the way you like it, there won't be any need to zoom back in.

Happy Holidays, all.

11/28 S 58.07 A very tricky one. FXA triggered much sooner
11/29 B 57.48 iH&S triggered 30 min.
12/01 S 61.50 Open HFE 30 min with LS. Weak FXA.

Another iH&S setting up! Yes, and with the gap up 12/2, it triggered. But CCI and CO held trendlines and FXA resisted the DMP; weak diver CO on FXA and diver CO on AGQ (all 30 min); so stay short.

12/5 still short AGQ. Gap up R at the DMP and daily 50 MA. EOD buy signals about to trigger though. A small gap up tomorrow may trigger them. But I still don't like the way the CO looks on various time frames.

12/6 B 56.55 CCI TLB 30 and 60 min. Gotta take these TLBs.
12/7 S 59.22 CCI TLB w/LS 30 min followed by shamu.
12/8 B 55.56 CCI TLB 60&30 min; CCI & CO divers.
12/9 S 57.83 CCI TLB 60 min w/30 min LS; weak COs
12/12 B 54.15 30 min CCI & CO TLB w/LS; diver CO
12/13 S 54.80 CCI 60 min TLB
12/13 B 54.28 CCI 60 min TLB
12/13 S 54.22 CCI 60 min TLB Shoulda just stayed short from this morning.
12/15 B 46.45 CCI 30 min TLB; triple CO diver with a prev TLB.
12/16 S 48.09 CCI 30 min TLB; prev CO TLB & diver
12/19 B 46.10 CCI 30 min TLB; prev CO TLB & diver (est., as my QT charts are screwed up)
12/20 S 48.30 CCI 30 min TLB
12/21 B 47.25 CCI 30 min TLB; also CO TLB
12/22 S 47.45 CCI 30 min TLB
12/22 B 46.90 CCI 30 min TLB
12/23 S 46.77 CCI 30 min TLB

This current bar is going to trigger a sell. Let's call it 46.77.

Looking at a daily chart, these moves are getting tinier and tinier. There is a TLB BUY on the CCI 20, but the CO is weak.

And then a Buy sig on the close of the last bar Thursday. Let's call it 46.90.

Thanks. Nice charts. I see the RSI 5; I hadn't thought of using it on the 30 min. I'll take a look.

PA + Price Action, right? What is VSA?

That was 47.45.

SELL Signal close of first 30 min bar this morning. I'm calling it a breakeven; it may be a small winner.

thanks, I know people who use that as part of their TA in trading.

Buy sig Wednesday close of 2 pm bar (30 min). 47.25

yes I read him. I like his chart work. I agree with his point of view but for my own trading I am completely technical.

Sell sig Tuesday close of 2 pm bar (30 min). Around 48.30.
