Re: Metastock Pro

Good ideas, Harley
One step at a time.  I am just learning the basic window commands of ms
pro.  I find myself thinking in the old dos command.

I have a daytrader friend that recently upgraded to win98, and added a
special video card.  It was the Stealth pci video card.  I understand
that it has twin video outputs.  Now he can combine his 19 inch
panasonic with another monitor; probably a 15 or 17 in.  From what you
write, I presume that ms  6.5 can display charts on two screens at the
same time.  I am still uncertain about that.  In any case there are
other programs to work with, including multiple brokers, news,
spreadsheets, quotesplus, and irc screens.

The graphics fun is really easy.  Find an animation on the web, copy it,
then paste it to your mail.  It is that easy.  You will need a ver. 4.x
browser.
Thank you much for your thoughts.[Image]   Larry

<P>Ok on the serious side. You will want to chart the

<P>Ok. Now for the easy part. Use a 20 period
<BR>bollinger band on a candlestick chart and a 20
<BR>period bollinger band on a line chart of the
<BR>close. Also look at the tick and volume. Also
<BR>watch the trades go buy trade by trade.
<P>Now for the hard part. Look for patterns that
<BR>exist during the day and then make the comparisons
<BR>with what went on with the EOD data.
<P>Not much detail but a start. If you want to

<BR>I do have a real-time data feed and watch the
<BR>market all day. Just waiting for a different data
<BR>provider and the price for me to come down.
