Probably Price Channels?
The definition reads "It is formed by taking the highest high and the lowest low of the last n periods." Can you point me to a web page defining them as you describe?
-
Good to know, mdr. People ask us all the time if Medved Trader runs on Macs. Well yes it does - but it costs a bit.
Parallels is $80. Win10 is $120 So it's $200. Cost with VMWare is same.
But you get the capability of running all the Windows programs (not just MT).
Historically, most stock market software concentrated on PCs. Probably because of PC market share. MT is written in C#, and is not easy to "port" to IOS. There are some methods, but they are incomplete. It would be a LOT of work to do it, not sure if it could be done fully, and what's the point when you can already run it on a Mac using the above software.

This will be fixed in next beta release. Thanks for the report.

... will fix

rocarr, you realize you can remove watermark from charts. The option is in Settings/Charts/Display, right on top.

Open a historical chart (not intraday). Put up a horizontal line indicator. Edit its parameters. The second param is "Value" - it's a combo box (selection). I believe the "Prev Period" ones are the ones you want.
-
Basically - in MT the Historical Charts' "Horizontal Line" can show monthly/weekly/yearly O/H/L/C. I could put an option there to "show next period" - which would show the previous month's close/low etc. in the next month... Would that do it?
-
Is this for hist chart or for intraday?

Paintbars are coming. Then indexes. Index stuff is similar to ticker tape.
But frankly, ydfah, through the years with QT, I very rarely saw anyone saying they used QT's tickertape. Of course, since my interaction with users was mostly through tech support emails, maybe it just worked so perfectly and intuitively that no one emailed us about it.
-
Direct SMS is problematic, but there is always SMS-thru-email. So once we do email, all you have to do is find out what your provider's SMS-to-email gateway address is (there are online lists galore or you can ask them) and send an alert email to that gateway.

We in general try to add options sparingly. Show too many options, and no one will use them. It's the TL;DR principle.

We aim to please

"Compare Symbol" indicator.

Yes. Basically the TDA discontinuing the feed for QuoteTracker has nothing to do with Medved Trader.
On edit: ok, after talking to Jerry, we will need to update your version (I presume it is 1.0.8588.0310) to use MT ID when getting authorization from TDA. It will be done in the next few days.
-
In fact, just as in QT, MT attempts not to over-extend the scale on volume too much.
When "scale by max" is not checked, the upper scale is capped at 10 times the average of the visible portion of the EMA of the volume (even if you don't show the EMA).
When "scale by max" is checked, the cap is not there.

From Jerry (he's traveling): "We have it implemented. Waiting for them to release the signup."
he will contact them next week. -
Please do the following to help us diagnose it:
go to FILE / Export/Backup menu (from Dashboard or Portfolio)
Select “To share with others” export file protection option on top right
Leave the checkboxes already checked, and also check LOG FILE.
Export, then email us the exported file to support@medvedtrader.com
-
edkal3: in the future, if you are having any problems, either post here or email us at support@medvedtrader.com
We will respond quickly.
-
We have a feature in the pipeline that would allow users to "dock" a bunch of windows together so that when you move one you move the whole group. Once that is done, maybe we can add a feature where you can save/restore a dock-group.
-
That shows initial setup of Medved Trader and shows how to use the "trading from charts" feature in it. Full-screen the video in order to see it best.
If you're wondering, the voice is Jerry's.

We're having an issue right now with our credit card processor. While this is going on, we have to hold off on any new registrations. We will announce once payment functionality is restored.
MT will continue to function fully meanwhile
-
I am not sure what is happening - can you send us to support@medvedtrader.com the snapshots of before and after?
-
Hm.. As I am implementing it, I am pretty amazed just how little the "total return" charts differ from regular charts. I mean, yes, the values are different, but the general shape is basically the same. Even for REITs, which, I thought, would be most affected.
-
If you mean the chart that has dividends rolled into the price - no, we don't do that. Is that what you meant?
We *could* take the available dividend data and adjust the prices with it (as an option). Can you show me an example of someone doing that?
Donchian Channel Definition
in Bug Reporting - Public
Posted
From your wikipedia link:
"The Donchian channel is an indicator used in market trading developed by Richard Donchian. It is formed by taking the highest high and the lowest low of the last n periods. The area between the high and the low is the channel for the period chosen. "
When someone says "last n periods" that *usually* includes the current one. Thus my confusion. The stockcharts link does show, on the charts, that it is not including current one. It also says (and I guess I missed that before) "The Price Channel formula does not include the most recent period."
Thanks for the correction.
I will change the code. Will be in next beta.
(By the way, we do credit Donchian in the desciption (the little info button) of the indicator).
