Topic: Indicator to PCF
Posted: Thursday, June 10, 2010 6:29:23 AM
Hi,
I have the following indicator, (V-minv20)/(maxv20-minv20+.001) plotted with a smoothing average of 6. I am trying to put this into a PCF, but can't seem to get smoothing average to work properly. I have tried different configurations, but TC doesn't seem to like how I'm doing the average and I'm wondering how to do this?

Thank you,
Winfield

You can get 20min delayed via Telechart during the day vs. Blocks is strictly EOD. You also get Worden report with TC. No BOP with Blocks. Personally I switched to Blocks, but am paying for mutual fund and some other fundamental data because I was grandfathered in a different rate.

Topic: How do you trade a dragon?
Posted: Monday, September 1, 2008 8:39:27 PM
AB,
I have been doing some options papertrading lately and it seems to me the straddle position works best when there has been a period of basing. I realize the dragon pattern does involve a period of basing, but I think these bases are rather short and the put/call pricing for a straddle would be out of kilter from the previous pop in price. So the calls would be inflated and puts deflated.

Given the fact the dragon pattern is based on a bullish outlook, I think you would be better served by either a vertical spread or simple call purchase. I am still learning the vertical so suggest googleing for further explanation.

Whoever knows this stuff better please chime in.

Also, they have a good 'options school' under the support tab on home page with lots of good info on setups, positions, greeks, etc.
