As a fairly new TC2005 user(about 3 months)I have spent the majority of my time(about 5 hours per week)learning the technical aspects of TC. Today I decided to check out some of the Worden Reports and I can't believe they go back to 1/14/2004. Needless to say I am never going to have the time to read all of them plus I would think some of them would be obsolete (sp?) because of changing market conditions etc..... Can I get a couple of user responses as to which one's they found the most helpful and beneficial?
Thank You

One thing that does kind of "jump out" at you.
It appears most follow the same general technique.
While individual methods many differ in general:
They are trend followers.
They tend to let the stock tell them when the run is over.
They use stops.
They screen stocks for fundamentals.
They screen for price performance.
They tend to buy strength when bullish.
They tend to sell strength when bearish.
This seems to be the common theme among most who claim
to have developed successful trading habits.

Deion - There have been so many good contributions, I had trouble narrowing it down. But for me, Sir Gringoleiro's Worden Notes on June 4, 2002 and Aug. 15, 2003 hit home. In fact my F5 keep is set up using his August 15, 2003 indicator recommendations. I don't use it exclusively but in concert with some others. Pay attention to stops - Using Don Worden's system for setting stops is good. It's explained in Sir Pessimist's Mar 19. 2004 submittal.

Socrates,
Thank you for posting Sir Gringoleiro's notes. Some of his settings are now part of my Telechart.

F5 will select your chart template.
There is F1 thru F12
If you were on F5 you will see no change
when you press the key.
Thanks

Deion - Did you follow Diceman's explanation? Let us know. And yes [F5 keep] should have been typed as [F5 key].

Another question I have pertains to the Worden Report on 03/08/2006 by Sir Fan-Pattern. He states " A stock I am watching closely has been above its 50 DMA for 209 days". Does anyone know of a way to count how many days a stock has been above a MA like he did?

How do you normally change charts?
Do you have more than one chart setting?
Sir-fan Pattern tracks his charts manually.
Every day he runs a scan for stocks that cross above the 50 day moving average.
He puts them in a watchlist. Every day he scans if a stock (in the watchlist) falls
below the 50 day mav. If it does he flags it and deletes it.
By using the watchlist tracking feature he can tell how long its been above its
moving average.(how long its been in the watchlist).
The theory is the ones that have been in the longest are in the strongest uptrends.

Deion,
Did you watch the videos I linked above?
Does your keyboard have a FUNCTION KEY lock?

Craig, eventhough they have different titles, they are the same exact video. I didn't see anywhere in the video('s) where it talks about the F keys. Yes I do have a function key on my keyboard

Typically a computer keyboard will have 12 function keys.
They are typically across the top of the keyboard.
They are usually in groups of 4.
F1 to F4 (4 keys)
F5 to F8 (4 keys)
F9 to F12 (4 keys)
Do you have 12 chart templates set-up?
How do you normally switch charts?

Yes I do have 12 F keys on top. When I want to switch a chart I click on the drop down box under the industry/subindustry and select the chart. When I use the drop down box of my list of charts, up top it has charts and to the right it has data sheet. I just scroll up or down until I come to the chart I created which I wish to view.

I'm not sure why your F-keys are not working.
Unless they are "locked" or somehow disabled.
You should be able to change charts by pressing the
F-keys.
My charts actually have "F1" and "F2" (and so on) on them.
I don't know if that's standard or it set up that way by "luck".

If you have a logitech keyboard and have itouch running (the little green guy in your task bar) then TC will not respond to your F keys. You can configure itouch to do a function key pass through
