<+tzar> | gm rickf, Widgetman | 08:36 |
<+rickf> | hi tasr |
| tzar |
| you |
| yes you |
<+tzar> | :) |
<+Widgetman> | gm | 08:37 |
<+tzar> | you ever heard of marketdelat? |
| delta |
<+rickf> | yep |
<+Widgetman> | thx KN for heads up :) |
<+tzar> | ever used it? |
* +rickf | tried it for a few days -- didnt find much use for it though it was interesting |
<+rickf> | marketdelta footprint |
<+tzar> | yep |
| kn says its very good software | 08:38 |
<+rickf> | i'm sure it's handy -- i did like it -- but wanted to keep my screens as uncluttered as possible |
| yes i made a few good trades from it and picked reversalpoints accurately |
<+tzar> | i guess its time for another monitor then | 08:39 |
| :) |
<+rickf> | got 2 | 08:40 |
| use 1 | 08:41 |
<+tzar> | then its time to turn on that second one |
<+rickf> | meh -- maybe.....i just don't WANT that much data coming into my mind @ once |
<pat255> | what soft delta is? |
<+pat255> | for charts? |
<+tzar> | KN uses big volume to trade from |
| this would allow us to identify those levels | 08:42 |
| pat255, www.marketdelta.com |
<+pat255> | ty |
<+rickf> | simple volume histogram can do that too on my existing charts |
<+tzar> | do we know if kn uses cumulative volume or does he seperate buys and sells | 08:43 |
| ? |
<+rickf> | dunno |
<+tzar> | bad rickf, very very bad | 08:44 |
<+rickf> | ? |
