Hi Jtrader Yep should have no problems , the power quoted is what the speakers can handle. As always these things are never quite as clear cut as they first appear , things like the resistance (4 or 8 ohms) come into play, and the quality of the amp driving the speakers. However like for like...

Wolf, I use different timeframes , depending on what Im trading. Having said that though I only use 2 screens as I find that another one confuses the issue. For me 30/5/ 1 or 2 min is too much noise, unless your scalping which I dont. You can watch the action of the 1/2 min chart on the 5min ...

I have to agree with techst@, re Elders methods. I v.rarely post on t2w (read alot) but felt I should defend the man on here. I personally found his book very helpful, and unlike others, and I include Tharp in this, he does stick his neck on the line and gives a very basic system to begin with...

Jerry Thanks for your reply I will quote the formula as per Elder Upper channel line = EMA + EMA . Channel coefficient Lower channel line = EMA - EMA . Channel coefficient On CMC's charting software you select a value for the deviation of the MA channel until the it fits youre...

Just started using the free version, fantastic value!!! Is it possible to show an EMA price channel (not Bollinger)as per Elder ie 95% of price within the band, and adjust it to suit. I know CMC allow you to do it on their charts. Apologies if the answer is obvious and staring me in the face...

I use cap spreads and cant fault them re customer service or closing positions, for my modest trade size. I have been looking into cmc for their comprehensive charting, and liked the idea of alerts, however going off what people have said it appears they may not be quite what they seem. I...

Thanks all for your help, Johnny T dont sit on the fence just say what you think , wondered if I should use a 10 or 20 period for the crap part of the indicator and have you found any correlation between this and a 100 day MA! ;) The rest should keep me going for some time Thanks again Paul

cci Hello all, I notice from certain traders charts posted on the site, that several seem to use CCI as an indicator. Could somebody please explain what this represents , and its use, or point me in the direction of a thread which discusses it in more detail. Im particularily interested in its...

FX Zigzag Just getting to grips with it myself, very early days but the site I use for the data is http://quote2.fxtrek.com/misc/fxcm2.asp very good java chart, with quick changes between lots of currencies. Paul

Excellent Bramble, Just downloaded it and its a godsend! Fro the info of anybody out there Ive been getting bombarded with the mydoom virus for the last two days. Every time I checked my email with opera I got it again, easily sorted using Free AVG virus checker, but time consuming none the...

Thanks for your help people. Ive now tried all the ways listed and they do work a treat. Ive just signed up for a demo with d4f also so am able to use their data, and might have to open an account with them. Its a shame cap spreads couldnt do this as I like their approach to their customers but...

capital spreads delayed charts Evening everyone, after reading the boards here for a couple of months I have decided to take the plunge at spread betting. Ive traded equitys for some time but would like to trade a bit more quickly initially at evenings. After advice from some knowledgable...
