Any variation to a candle can make or break a trade.<BR/><BR/>By the way, I suggest you guys use the latest (Beta) version of QT : 3.8.5E BETA. This one uses the seconds timestamp from the DTN data feed, for backfilled data, which previous versions didn't use. This means more precision in your data.<BR/><BR/>One of these days I will get tired of all these data problems and go for the high-end providers like CQG (400-500$/month).<BR/><BR/>By the way OONR7, you must speak french, right ?<BR/><BR/>NoGreedNoFearAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1325562478910773152.post-37701954023568737202007-08-02T13:53:00.000-04:002007-08-02T13:53:00.000-04:00wow... big problem.

I've talked to QT, Investor/RT & DTN and nobody can really figure it out. <BR/><BR/>Really hard to pull the trigger on a trade when the same chart on 2 different platforms is telling you a different story.<BR/><BR/>NoGreedNoFearAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1325562478910773152.post-6779930598070483002007-08-02T09:26:00.000-04:002007-08-02T09:26:00.000-04:00yeah... knew about that and tried it for a bit but...yeah... knew about that and tried it for a bit but I really didn't find it helpful.OONR7https://www.blogger.com/profile/17622886234639917711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1325562478910773152.post-43583057614870908282007-08-02T09:22:00.000-04:002007-08-02T09:22:00.000-04:00There is a feature I really like also in QT that s...There is a feature I really like also in QT that some of you might not know about.

You can access them in the toolbar that shows up when you move your mouse cursor to the upper left corner of a chart. <BR/><BR/>By clicking on the "shapes" icon from the toolbar (2nd on the right, there is circle, a rectangle and a line on it), you can then choose the “Fibonacci Retracements” as your drawing tool. If you can't see the toolbar, right-click on a chart, go in the "View..." menu and choose "Show Toolbar".<BR/><BR/>By the way, you can get all your answers quickly if you contact QT's support staff at : support@quotetracker.com. You don't need to be a paying customer to get support from them.<BR/><BR/>I don't think using IB's data feed is the best option. I would normally recommend DTN, but they have been updating/adding servers and their data has not been very reliable in the past few weeks so I would definitely not subscribe now.<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/><BR/>NoGreedNoFearAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1325562478910773152.post-36493601614482860402007-08-01T21:47:00.000-04:002007-08-01T21:47:00.000-04:00Since we both traded CEPH, I would like to congrat...Since we both traded CEPH, I would like to congratualte you on your exit.

I was using IB as my data feed. I understand that you use Prophet for gap data feed.<BR/><BR/>One thing that bothered me was the discrepancies between my Esignal and QT charts. Every 15 min. bar was off on every single chart. It did not change the overall setup, however, a hammer on one chart was just a regular stick on the other. I then checked against stockcharts.com and noticed that 99% of the time, the Esignal and Stockcharts were the same stick by stick incl. vol. Not sure, but it seems that QT chart data is off by about 60 seconds.<BR/><BR/>Also, could not find the Fibs.
