Drag down on the prices and it will compress for you. Up or a double click in the top half will zoom back out.

:idea: That's helpful - thanks!

Now I can see Weekly Support 1. The text for Weekly Support 2 is there, but no dotted line. However, what you showed me is fine, for now.

Thanks!

To crunch down the chart window in Empty4, place mouse pointer in the price bar on the right of the chart then hold down the left mouse button and slide up and down to crunch or expand the chart window.

Hi there! I'm quite a lurker around these parts of the internet that I wish will bring me the riches :D , and now that I feel like I should get my feet wet with a demo account, I downloaded the 10.4 and the dashboard lhDT wrote and shared with us... that being said I want to express my gratitude to all of you members of this community for all, this is amazing!

So here I am, with 3 charts opened at the moment on my Empty4 Cowboy IBFX demo account, the first using the Info Page template, the 2nd with a 4H chart of the CADJPY pair using the 10.4 template, and the 3rd one with the dashboard loaded and the rest of the chart blacked out on the background. All of them seem to be functioning correctly, but the I can't scroll down on the window which has the dashboard, so I can't see all of the text as it digs into the window bottom and mockingly refuses to appear before my rich eager eyes... Is there anything I could try so that I can see the info for all of the pairs with the dashboard?

Thanks in advance, hope I made sense! Love you all!

EDIT: Oh my, I just went back to lhDT post and found the solution, I have to add the pairs which I want to appear! ;) :idea:

When a pair is turning. You will be hating life while the 240 keeps you in long and it spikes short over and over. This occurs for weeks at a time. Bob knows when to stay out.... we'll figure it out and quantify it. The forth coming EA's will eat dirt on those runs. They are not infrequent. That said the signal is strong enough that a jump stop would get you out around BE often. SL at 240... not so much.

For me the gem is the RSI(2) on TMA slope. This is a very very strong setup! Pure beauty and not as noisy as the stoch equivalent. It is every bit as pretty on other timeframes as well. I love this one and am already applying it to the other systems I trade. It is a brilliant heads up on a forth coming significant move. AO I can take or leave it is pretty laggy.

The weekly pivots and midpoints as they relate to 4H trading, taking the week as a unit, are another highlight every single swing trader should master. Unfortunately broker timeframes and start times will affect these significantly. So use pivots that auto correct. Or grab an demo like Cowboy IBFX and use Bob's templates. Sadly I couldn't believe the difference this made. I have been using Paul's dwmpivots forever, the Cowboy IBFX solution better matches Bob's candles.

Hopefully we'll be seeing lots of charts, both failed and successful soon. First fresh week after release. :)
Simple question - how do you put RSI(2) onto Slope inid chart window?

The easiest way is to use Bob's template. But manually you, add NT TMA True Slope Histo... tweak it. Then drag RSI onto it. Then repeat with AO. Bob has done a nice job of tweaking. Turn off showinfo on the TMA histo if you get errors. Works fine for me. Even with all pairs open.

Good Luck.

Hi

In your opinion is it better to use RSI(2) from template 10.4 v1.0.1 or Stoch from template 10.4 v1.0.2.

I understand the change from RSI to Stoch (problems with Empty4), but for me both templates work fine, so what is the best?

Thanks

Thanks - got this working and I can see what you mean - it gives heads-up earlier than RSI/AO.
