I dont know what Azimut is playing at with his posts. This trade http://www.trade2win.com/boards/showpost.php?p=349982&postcount=890 was made by Leeshindig. He is posting charts on here which were posted on livecharts.co.uk and appears to be passing them off as his own, including my work. The...

www.eoddata.com will almost certainly be more accurate than Yahoo, I gave up on Yahoo a long time ago.

RBS in the long term should come back up. A the moment it is being dragged into the mire of credit crunching. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/money/main.jhtml?xml=/money/2007/08/03/bcnrbs203.xml They have been left with $18B of exposure they are struggling to offload in the credit downturn as well...

I assumed the correct price would have been adjusted by now. I will be kicking myself if it isn't though! Kevin

A1. Various reasons, surplus cash which is not needed at current time to expand the business. Reducing available shares in theory should create a supply/demand price rise, less shareholders more divi to go round etc. Depends on exactly what the transaction is. A2. Not as clear cut as 'they are...

Its not Cap Spreads technolgy or platform. The underlying system is from another company which supplies trading platforms to various comapnies. Kevin.

Chris with CS you cant trade (stocks) in the opening 5 mins. Your theory may be sound, the ability to test it will have to be tried out elsewhere :confused:

I'm not suggesting that anyone use pivots on there own. That would be plain silly. Thats why I'm asking if people are using them as part of a strategy or just something to be aware of. There are a multitude of indicators out there, any one of them on its own will be useless, its a case of...

How many traders use them on a daily basis? Are they part of your trading strategy or a secondary indicator to keep in mind? For this week I will be making available pivot data for LSE, NAS, AMEX, NYSE on my site. Pivots are calculated on EOD H/L/C. Biased towards US as I cant get EOD data for...

Thanks for the feedback, glad it is of use. Sometimes simple is best and that was always the intention. As Joules has mentioned its a timesaver as much as anything. Nothing new in what I have done, just tried to make it easy and useful :)

Some changes such as bigger range of levels and a storage area to save and reuse data, which you can also add a note to. http://www.tradersoftware.biz Kevin.

Personally, no I dont use beta values when planning a buy/sell. Just had a look at the stock v. FTSE, if you go to the Yahoo site you can add the FTSE index as a comparison on the same chart. EPIC to add is ^FTSE. Over last year or so they are quite closely linked, but do the same for a 2 or 5...

Some shares do track the index closer than others. They have a beta value which indicates a correlation between the two. High beta value stocks in theory will track the index more closely. So if for example the beta value of BAE is 2 it means that for a 1% move up/down in the index, BAE should...
