Rick, a picture is worth a thousand words isn't it ? Very nice, thanks
Thomasz.
It took me a relative short time to realize that i'm not very good at
guessing market direction even with the tech the tools available. So
my plan of attack has been to have an equal # of dollars invested on
the short side and the long side. Often i'll be right on both
positions but it'll be rare that i'm that i'll be wrong on both. My
aim is to be more right than I am wrong. For me anyways it just seems
to be a win, win situation.
Since the birth of this equity tool, what i've done is run a scan
using various formulas in the AFL library and named a watch list with
the same name as the formula.
I've got 2 indicators on the screen. 1 is equity the other is the Zig
that was provided by Thomas. I go down the symbol tree one at a time
while looking for the equity to continue going up while the Zig is
correcting. If it seems to be working i'll add that stock to the watch
list and on to the next symbol.
The same thing using a different indicator then another then another
and so on. Now looking at the results of the different watch lists
there will be some stocks that make more than 1 watch list, as they
say (getting the ducks in a row).
Something I would like to see is that when the price bar is moved
across the screen the value would be on the indicator similar to the
way the O/H/L/C/V is on the price chart. I know it can be done using
the guru commentary but thats way above my head for now, it took me a
week to realize that AFL stands for AFL. if anyone has Zig and equity
for use with the guru commentary i'd be most thankful.
Thomasz, your software is under priced and over valued.
