[HI_THERE]

Null conversation. I agree. You two have made this thread undesireable. Good luck in trading. ps. I made 20% leveraged on Netlist a few minutes ago. And the DJ is down over 100 points. A price oscillator is one of the tools in my arsenal. Hope your day is as productive.

Dare I mention this (at the risk of entering the fray) - I have been trying to get the code that was posted for the DTOsc (have been a fan of Miner's book for some time) - and cant seem to get it to run for TS. Sent a PM to Smuhr but havent heard anything back.

Am not exactly ELD savvy - but am getting error messages when I try to verify the code that was posted.

Thanks for the response in advance. (And yes - I used oscillators at points I believe the product may turn - which yes - is actually some fibonacci levels/alt price projections/external retracements - which I know some believe is voodoo, etc. But since we all skin the market in different ways - I figure its all good!)

Thanks, statsign. The code works great on TS charts... but it refuses to work on RadarScreen. Could fastkcustomeasy function be incompatible with RS?

I like awesome oscilator on tick charts.

I don't think so. I have no need for Radar so don't have it. I do know most problems are settings for loading data. Post in the TS support forum and get an answer right away - lots of Radar savvy users there.

I use MACD, RSI and moving averages along with volume. I also like to use Bollinger bands to determine when the price will change.

I have used several oscillators. At some points all of them fail because they are bound within 0-100 parameters, even if a trend continues vigorously. In trending markets they all will fail. But that itself is a false premis to start with. One needs to combine price oscillator with a moving average to effectively check if a trend is developing, in which case one shifts from oscillator to trend.
So the question is what is a good, if not the best, combination of oscillator and moving average. In my experience, Williams %R extremes and a simple moving agerage of twenty-one bars itself going up or down.
