Hi everyone, Hope everyone is doing well. I know there is a limitation concerning the watchlist columns within ToS. I'd like to have my column use a aggregation period other than 2 hours or 4 hours and use instead 233 mins, but ToS isn't doing it. I wonder if I can build a study that defines the 233 min time period and then have the watchlist column call on it, and show the results.by RichieRick - Trading Discussion
Have you tried " " in place of double.NaN??? AddLabel(yes,if buy then ((close-open)*.25)+open else " ",color.lighT_GREEN); AddLabel(yes,if sell then ((open-close)*.75)+close else " ",color.pink); Keep in mind that there is a blank space between the " marks. Or just have a space there instead of the " " marks. Sometimes that works for meby RichieRick - Trading Discussion
Awesome!!! Thanks for posting that. I want to understand what "def RSI = 50 * (ChgRatio + 1);" is doing and what it's telling me. I don't even know if I even need it. I have to two separate scripts, and both are using RSI as part of the code. I'd like to combine them into one script that I can use in a Watch list column. I want to use StochRSI, but I'm not even sure the line oby RichieRick - Trading Discussion
Hi guys, I'm working a script, and these two lines are butting heads. def RSI = reference RSI (price = RSI_price, length = RSI_length); def RSI = 50 * (ChgRatio + 1); I understand that both lines are attempting to define RSI, but I'm not sure how to resolve this. Can anyone help me understand the second line more clearly? What does "50 * (ChgRatio + 1)" tell me?by RichieRick - Trading Discussion
Not to sound dismissive, but if ya wanna know you'll need to go to the source. Sorry! The source would be Gary.by RichieRick - Trading Discussion
Yeah it used to be 90 days, but a while back they up'ed it to 180 days.by RichieRick - Trading Discussion
Maybe this has been asked before and is now lost in the 75 pages of this thread. Anyone know how to add a Quarterly chart to ThinkorSwim??? Seems to be about the only thing missing. My apologies if this has been covered and I missed it.by RichieRick - Trading Discussion
OMG, Darcy!!!!!!!!!!! It's so awesome to see you on the board again. Welcome back!by RichieRick - Trading Discussion
I hope everyone is aware that the ZigZag lines just like the Autowave is a big fat LIER!!!!! It tells the true AFTER THE FACT. It will often take the line back and redraw it. As in the picture above it does appear to always be right. It's only right in hindsight. Based on the picture you could INCORRECTLY get the idea that the line is some sort of fortune teller line. It isn't.by RichieRick - Trading Discussion
Probably would be best to familiar yourself with the Charting program you are going to use. There are only 2 that Gary would recommend at this point. Qcharts (which is supposed to be slowly dying out) and Alchemcharts. I used my laptop for note taking since I can type faster than I can write by hand. Get there early to get registered and settled in to your seat. It's theater seating like wby RichieRick - Trading Discussion
Don't let that Smiley face trip you up. This forum messes with the script that get posted sometimes and puts in a nice smiley face. It interprets the semi-colon and the close parentheses as a winky smiley. Can't remember for certain, but I think that's right. Someone correct me if I"m wrong.by RichieRick - Trading Discussion
For your level there are only two places to enter or exit a trade. 9:30am, or 1:23pm. After 4pm you are checking to see if you have a position to enter or exit the next morning. Gary says you have a window of 30 mins or so. Just cause he types really slow.by RichieRick - Trading Discussion
I'll try to answer as best I can. These classes are setup in a "crawl, walk, run" format, so DON'T get ahead of yourself and try to progress to fast. Learn each class and master the things needed to master BEFORE adding on things from following classes. The things that you need to learn don't have to be perfect, but you do need to be able to "own" them as your own beforby RichieRick - Trading Discussion
Lol, Gary himself says he didn't invent anything with trading. He is/was completely self taught by reading tons of books and testing many things until he developed his own system from all that. I think Elders is all in it. By keeping what worked and getting rid of what didn't work.. What Bruce Lee did for Kung-Fu Gary has done with technical indicator trading. Of course he will admit thby RichieRick - Trading Discussion
Sorry! It was just a bit to easy. Are you a Gary Williams student? If not then I imagine you won't get much from this forum cause most everyone here are current/former Gary Williams students. Most of the vet traders here tend to be lurkers, without ever posting anything. There was a time when things were active, but now not so much. Maybe they just come and read the posts looking forby RichieRick - Trading Discussion
When you get that nailed down and perfect, let all the rest of us know.by RichieRick - Trading Discussion
Please don't post the numbers to the settings.by RichieRick - Trading Discussion
It would appear that I like to say "though" a lot for some reason. lol.....by RichieRick - Trading Discussion
Oh I see. No they are the same settings. For the offset though you will need to us a negative number though, because a positive number will move it backwards instead of forward. That's pertaining to the CC lines though.by RichieRick - Trading Discussion
No he is still going. Not sure what you mean by "do they hold true"?by RichieRick - Trading Discussion
That is by design. Gary Williams students know the settings and they've been sworn to secrecy under an Non-Disclosure agreement. Although many on here may be long past any NDA they still feel somewhat committed to not sharing that info if you're not a GW student.by RichieRick - Trading Discussion
Yesterday I posted something here concerning the RSI in TOS vs the RSI in Qcharts: Now today as I'm looking through it, I'm beginning to see that there are times, (often times) when the price data (OHLC) from the three charting services DO NOT match up. There have been many many times when I will go to another data source, like Yahoo or google and even the nyse and s&p sites to comparby RichieRick - Trading Discussion
It's funny you posted here concerning TOS and chart settings. I was looking at something today and noticed something messed up. RSI Look at symbol UDOW on Qcharts, then look at it in TOS. Look from March 29, 2017 through June 25 2017. When you compare it to the StochRSI in TOS they don't match up. VERY VERY strange. Can anyone explain why, or better yet tell me how to correct itby RichieRick - Trading Discussion
They are much better than the old format. BUT MY GOD, I WISH HE WOULD STOP WITH ALL THE STUPID STORIES ABOUT, "violence training", and examples of dumb things students have done in the past or recently. People find it hard to know when to take notes and when to listen because he constantly wanders off into some rant about all of us becoming better persons. It's as if he's lecturingby RichieRick - Trading Discussion
There is a slightly different book list now. Mostly you want to you read what Gary calls, "mindset books". You can skip the ones about the stock market or books about the "technical" stuff. He will be your book about the stock market as he puts it. Like I said before, clear your mind about what you "think" you know about the markets and trading and investing. Yoby RichieRick - Trading Discussion
Gary has changed the way he trades quite a bit since 2002. He doesn't do anymore intraday stuff. No five minutes plays, no sling shot trades and no trades off 55 min charts. He also does not trade the news.... EVER!!!! I said you were signed up for class in Aug. GOOD!!!... DO NOT TRADE THE NEWS!!! Don't worry about any of the intraday stuff he used to teach. He doesn't teach it any longby RichieRick - Trading Discussion
Sadly there aren't many active folks on this forum. Often time they will just check in from time to time without ever logging in.by RichieRick - Trading Discussion
Admins.... Can we have this crap removed??? Or at least take those stupid little bouncing bombs away. Should change the name of it to "pipe dream indicator".by RichieRick - Trading Discussion
Still not seeing any relevance there. So that little exchange of verbiage is supposed to provide what exactly??? In the amount of time you've spent on ONE indicator you could have been studying charts and become a fantastic chart reader. The only "black box" that will ever exist is the one you build between your ears. It won't be a program or a script. It doesn't matter if you woby RichieRick - Trading Discussion
Maybe to generate blind excitement so the masses will knock down his door to purchase the "magical black box". He only has 12 posts and all of them are in this thread. Some guy with the name "holly grail" pimping a magic indicator called the holly grail indicator; how original. Yet it isn't for sale, but you can steal it from him for the low low price of..... LOL.
