Ron.
I would suggest to you to start with some CD/Books tutorials. I have two
from Martin Pring (www.pring.com) that introduces you to the TA world.
(Intro & Black Box). From there you should read some books on systems like
"Trading Systems and Methods (Wiley Trading Advantage Series)"
by Perry J. Kaufman. In short, you pick the things that suits your style
and start testing it.
Good luck,
Moshe Shalom

Guy, and all the other experienced users-
With all the discussion on the list of general trading principles from
experienced traders, I wondered if any of you might take a few minutes to
point a newer user of Metastock in the right direction. I'd like to be able
to build and program my own trading system and indicators; so don't worry, I
don't need you to reveal the workings of your secret systems. Just some
basics. Maybe you could share a few basic type indicators or systems.
Do most of your build your own indicators, or do you use the ones provided?
Much discussion has been had about buy and sell signals...but I have seen no
specifics. Guy, you talk about this a lot. Can you tell me what you are
using to generate these?
It took me my first 2 months just to get this program to stop crashing, and
now, I can use it to the extent of seeing very good charts and doing chart
pattern analysis with volume and some canned indicators like RSI. I look at
different time frames, use volume, etc. But I know I'm missing something
probably a lot of something, or a lot of somethings. Frankly, I'm lost.
Any help would be appreciated.
Sincerely=
Ron Scott
