Good work! You are learning fast.

Look no further... LOL try the moving average with extension. http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/f46/moving-average-with-extension-5642.html

you do it the same way as if you draw on the main chart. the only different is on the reserved word: TL_New_self Displays a trendline, with the specified starting and ending points, on the SubChart containing the study; returns a trendline-specific ID number, required to modify the trendline. Usage TL_New_self (sDate, sTime, sPriceValue, eDate, eTime, ePriceValue) Parameters sDate - a numerical expression specifying the trendline starting point date; the date is indicated in the YYYMMdd format, where YYY is the number of years since 1900, MM is the month, and dd is the day of the month sTime - a numerical expression specifying the trendline starting point time; the time is indicated in the 24-hour HHmm format, where 1300 = 1:00 PM sPriceValue - a numerical expression specifying the trendline starting point price value (vertical position, corresponding to a value on the price scale of a chart) eDate - a numerical expression specifying the trendline ending point date eTime - a numerical expression specifying the trendline ending point time ePriceValue - a numerical expression specifying the trendline ending point price value Example Display a trendline, that begins at 9:00 AM at a price value of 1381, and ends at 3:00 PM at a price value of 1337, on January 17th, 2008, on the SubChart containing the study: Value1=TL_New_self(1080117,900,1381,1080117,1500,1337);

what instrument and what time frame is your chart? what is it off by?

Go get Bollinger's book: Bollinger on Bollinger Bands. There is no point in inventing your own trading rules when you don't know what you are doing.

It can be done with MultiCharts. Not sure with TS.

search for "zigzag" I have posted the code here on TL. you can see how it is done.

here's John Ehlers' original CG doc and code. it is an oscillator. I have not heard of the bands. Ehlers (CG Oscillator).doc

Type: Indicator Name: BWI BB Band Width Indicator: created by John Bollinger, of the Bollinger band and Bollinger Capital Management fame, as presented by John Forman in the Nov.1994 issue of "Technical Analysis of Stocks and Commodities". Idea: BWI is a measure of a tradeable's ability/tendency to trend. It is faster than an ADX, in that it will move earlier and reset itself earlier too. When the BWI is low, the volatility is low. ie. there isn't any trend. When it has a positive slope, there is a trend. I have added the following enhancements: 1. up/down colors for easy directional identification 2. option to use Exponential Average BWI_a.txt

I hope nobody trades with 6th sense... LOL

IB has a listing of exchanges it trades on. It is quite a long list. http://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/p.php?f=exchanges

I have added up/down color scheme based on previous bar. The histogram will be green if the height is higher than previous bar, and red if it is lower. PZT_BA_PRESSURE_Indicator_(V20a).txt

C# is a more power language... it is the language of choice for the professionals, but not an easy challenge for the uninitiated. EasyLanguage is really easy... even I know it. ;-)> MT4 is popular among Forex traders... Ninja is free... you can download the program and see if you can make it go. Tradestation is also free, for the account holders and active traders. You can try MultiCharts; it uses EasyLanguage. The free trial is 30 days.

if you haven't taken a course in computer programming... this might help you to understand the requirements. you will need to understand the difference between Procedural Programming and Object Oriented Programming MT4 and EasyLanguage are Procedural Languages, NinjaTrder has 2 programming methods: Ninjascript is Procedual, and C# is Object Oriented. p.s. more readings available on the web. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_Oj4xcD52A]YouTube - Procedural vs. Object-Oriented[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5kfCH50wl0]YouTube - Object Oriented Programming[/ame]

try this: condition = blah; if condition then buy... if condition[1] then buy... if condition[2] then buy...

that's why I don't bother.

Tidal Wave (EasyLanguage) this indicator measures the velocity of the slow stochastic it will turn before the stoch turns it will show divergence before MACD does in the illustration, I have included the slow stochastic for your comparison. enjoy! TidalWave_beta_01.txt

A trader friend of mine saw another trader see another trader posted a blotter of +60K on ONE day. LOL BFD

someone took James' suggestion to take a sales and marketing course... this is the second try. LOL I love these 1st poster magics.

EasyLanguage Programmer's Data Box this "indicator" shows all the pertinent information on the symbol you are working on. Instruction: 1. set your symbol to "invisible". 2. apply the "indicator" to your chart. From your "Format Symbol", you can choose to show page 1, or page 2. Programmers_Data_Box_(TS version).txt Programmers_Data_Box_(MC version).txt

you are thinking of TRIN. http://stockcharts.com/school/doku.php?id=chart_school:technical_indicators:trin do a Google on TRIN, you will find lots of articles on its interpretation and application.

The Nigerians are still trying

thanks!... something to watch this weekend.
