!!_msheiner_text_2d - slight modification

Postby TheRumpledOne » Thu Jun 22, 2006 5:36 pm

I labeled the support lines "Sup" and the resistance lines "Res".

Why did it take me months to figure that out?




ELD is attached and text for the rest follows:

{
9:50-10:10AM
Often times, a stock that is moving up into this reversal time zone will
either stall or reverse and head lower. The same is true for the reverse.
This reversal time is by far one of the most reliable times in existence.
10:25-10:35AM
A stock that is moving down into this reversal time zone will also tend to
either stall or reverse back to the upside. If a stock is moving up into
this time zone, it will often halt its advance or reverse and head
lower. This is also one of the more reliable reversal times.
11:15-11:30AM
This reversal time tends to accomplish two things. First, it tends to halt
the prevailing trend preceding it. A stall that this time zone puts in,
will tend to be an enduring one. This period also kicks off the period
called the midday doldrums. This is an elongated period that spans
11:15-2:15PM. During this extended time zone, many stocks, as well as the
market as a whole, often go into a major lull.
12:00-12:15PM
This time period is most important on days in which the morning has been
quiet or directionless. Despite the fact that it is the midday doldrums
period, this time zone can kick off some major moves in both directions,
but usually only when the preceding period was very quiet. This reversal
period is far less common than the preceding three.
1:15-1:30PM
This is one of the more minor reversal periods. It is usually most
significant when it coincides with the retest of a prior high or low. An
example, XYZ tops out around 11:15AM and after a pullback, it rallies back
to retest the 11:15AM high in the 1:15-1:30PM time period. The odds of a
double top dramatically increase, because the retest of the prior high is
coinciding with this time period and can present some interesting trading
opportunities.
2:15-2:30PM
This time period puts an end to the midday doldrums and serves as a very
reliable reversal period for stocks and the general market. This period
often marks the precise period when things start heating up again. It is
so pronounced at times that many regard the period as the market's second open.
3:00PM
This reversal time often brings change because it coincides with the close
of the bond market. This often results in stocks or the market taking on a
different, more accelerated character.
3:30PM
This time often reverses any move that was kicked off at the previous
3:00PM reversal time, particularly when the market is in a sideways trading
range. The last half hour is one of the most active for many day traders.
4:00PM
Once extended 24-hour trading takes place, look for this time to be an
important reversal time.

ELD is attached and text for the rest follows:


TRO,
Hello and thanks for posting your work here.

I don't have TradeStation, I use NeoTicker so I can't see the .eld code. Just wondering if the plain text you posted is what is contained in the .eld attached to the post. From the statement, "and text for the rest follows" I would think not.

I am familiar with easy language having used TS2000i and I am going to have a go at translating some of the TradeStaion code in this forum to Delphi.
Regards,
Tom Keough
