Setting Up Personal Charts

Post by Trader Question »

I have spent 4 considerably productive weeks setting up my charts. However @ this time i do need your help.

Following challenges:
#1 blues & refresh bands. i do not have the necessary info for the various plots & inputs for these indicators. i would love for these indicators to look as close as Charlies as i am now use to seeing these for weeks in the MOGS.
#2 Can not seem to put daily envelope on intraday tick chart
#3 for the symbol EMDH08.D, am i able to plot quarterly & yearly info on charts?

Regarding your #2 question: Please make sure that you have at least 10 days of tick data loaded into that window and then try again.... Not having enough data loased is the most common cause of that difficulty.

Regarding EMDH08.D and yearly charts etc: this is a single contract expiring in March of 2008 and thus would not have enough data in and of itself.. Try @EMD.d for the long-term composite contract.

Regards the settings for the refresh bands and how to make them look like Charlie's charts: follow this link http://www.pldot.com/less_is_more/index.html and then scroll down to the section that says "duplicating Charlie's charts" (just under "monthly plays). There you can download the *cag files and also follow the installation movie. This method used the "analysis group" technique. These
