Lita Thanks for the very helpful advice. I will take it! :D

Lita I would agree with you about importing data from Sharescope into Omnitrader which is why I did not recommend it. If I was in a position of trading full time, I would change immediately! However, I am at a stage where I am 'playing' and learning (I really am a complete novice!)and am...

Lita What I do is update data in Sharescope then import it into Omnitrader - To be honest it is lots of fiddling around. I import the FTSE350 with no problems but can't import all the indices. If you want to know how to do this - send me your e-mail address and I will send you details...

Dax Trader Thats helpful - Very helpful. Thanks

Lita Thanks for that! - I am trading end of day so hopefully if I just take the CMC price and allow for that in Omnitrader - hopefully I will be OK.

Skimbleshanks Please, please pretty please keep the very simple explanations coming! I have read so many trading books that I should probably be the most informed person on this site! However I am clearly not :cry: I am slowly getting the basics and am avidly practicing paper trading...

NeilM16 I have Omnitrader 2003 stocks, pre-release 7 and a very kind man from Signal Traders has helped me set it up for the UK market, including a couple of nifty profiles, which apparently are suitable for trading on the FTSE. I only got it last week and so I have lots to play with but I am...

Glenn and Skimbleshanks Thanks both of you for your explanation - I am gradually getting the plot! :D Skimbleshanks was correct in realising that my knowledge is at such a basic level that I don't understand alot of the information in the various books I am reading- so that a very basic...

Skimbleshanks Thanks so much x I've read various complicated books, but still had no idea of what volatility and momentum (you read my mind) really was all about - and now I do thanks to your very simple explanation!! I will remember you when I am rich! p.s. Don't hold your breath

What is Votility in terms of trading please and other basic questions Sorry to ask such basic questions but what does Votility mean and what effect would a break out have? Also if a company is due to report, what effect does this have on a share price - before the report? I am currently...

JayGee Thanks - that does help me and your term of ''paralysis of analysis'' is exactly what I am suffering from! It is comforting to know that other people have been through the same thing as me - It gives me hope that I may actually develop intro a half decent trader. I am under no illusion...

Thanks everyone x I will keep trying to figure out D4F and early next week I intend to start trading again To be honest - I feel quite overwhelmemed at the moment. :rolleyes: There is so much information to absorb and to try to make sense of - I feel that I have a hell of way to go before...

Crikey :eek: :confused: :rolleyes: !! Me thinks that I ought to get a little experience of trading before I start using fancy systems! I am going to stop reading books for now and just get on with it. Problem is I am now hooked on trading books - its the most inspiring, interesting and...

Thanks - Thats very helpful. And yes the book is talking about American stocks although I am going to try to use it for UK stocks Alexandra x

Darvas Box Tecnique Hello! I have just read Nicolas Darvas 'How I made $2000000 in the stock market'. It has been a riveting book and sounds like an excellent system. I am very interested in his box theory which seems to make a lot of sense and I would like to incorporate it in my very new...
