prestwick you can post images by first clicking the reply to topic icon found at the top of each post, it looks like a paper with a purple arrow on it, once clicked a new window will open where you enter your post. then at the bottom where you see "attach file" you want to click upload, this will open another window where you enter the title for the chart, browse for the image and click ok, then you want to tick the circle at the bottom where it says "members" make sure that says share.
When you guys watch $TICK are you counter trend i.e. selling @ +1000 and buying at -800 -1000. Or are you trend trading looking for higher highs in both the tick and ES and divergances?
This last high we had at 1244 was with high $tick count the highest in a couple of days....

I calculate the 3 hour price oscillators for both $tick and /es, each will read 1 at new 3 hour high and -1 at new 3 hour low and 0 for example if it is in middle of 3 hour channel and so on. Then I subtract the /es osc from the $tick osc. This gives me a reading I have found more useful. If anyone here is using thinkscript (tos) or wants to see the code I'd be glad to share.

P.S. I view this all on a 1min chart.
TY for the instructions.

Her is what I told to Pop and Joe in the email:

Here is where the BAV study can help. Big money bought about 20k net contracts off of the low today while small $ was essentially flat. Big $ has been playing around in the 29.5-35.5 range letting the market down and net accumulating. They will slam this and cause small $ to chase. Watch out for the unfulfilled 80% rule today to the 60.0 area.

Someone searching for ideas on the $tick for example will probably not think to look through all these daytrading posts...

Bruce - I echo your sentiment. I've been doing some research on that and there seems to be 2 things that we need to do to accomplish that. One is tagging: e.g. tag someone's post with the words $tick and ES for example. The other other is voting for the post: thumbs up/down. That way you can look at all the posts tagged with $tick in order of popularity.

It won't be available for some months but I'm working with the guys who are working on the new software for the forum and eventual I hope that those ideas will make their way in here.
