Ron,
First, read the manual. Second, read the manual. Third, go to all the sites
you can to look at the indicators and ideas that others have posted. Guppy,
Equis, and Yahoo all have good sites that deal with indicators/oscillators
and systems. Signals are when a particular (proprietary or otherwise)
indicator has reached a point whereupon you would either buy or sell. Place
some of those indicators on a chart and determine if you would trade using
that indicator. Fourth, refer to the manual. Fifth, ask. Hope all this
helps. If not I hope you'll take the fifth recommendation above.
J.
