Bid/Ask Indicator Similar to TradeFlow in CQG | Thread profile

Hi guys, So Ive been using CQG for some time now and though most of you will say its PRICEY!....I have somehow become hooked to a point where I can not switch over to another platform. (maybe TS again) There is a charting format called TimeFlow in CQG which is pretty much the same as the bid/ask indicator available on TL! but coloring the price bars instead of volume. The ...

Doesn't Investor/RT and/or Market Delta have the same functionality in one of its indicators already? I think the only difference are those small black bars in the CQG Tradeflow that I didn't see in I/RT's implementation. Perhaps LS Chad could advise further here... Another question would be...why are you thinking of going back to Tradestation. Sort of like giving up a Mercedes-...

As an alternative have you considered checking yourself into rehab to treat this addiction ? Paul

I don't believe TS can vary a bars width bar by bar (though may be wrong). Ninjatrader I believe has some sort of custom bar plot but I couldn't tell you whether you can vary the width easily. Might be worth investigation. Do you really think it improves your trading compared to say just looking at price and volume? I guess the answer must be yes or is it your addiction clouding your ...

You sure it wasn't "one you prepared earlier". Looks good BR. I wonder if you could get something good going with the different intensity of colours (i.e. a nice spread of brightnesses) whether that would suffice. I guess an alternative would be filled rectangles (drawn objects) but messy to keep track of I guess.

omg blu ray. You ARE the MAN! I care less about the width as I prefer to just read the volume panel. Is this coded in .ELD? If so, would you mind posting it? Thank you!

Quote: Blu-Ray LOL..... I'm Blu-Ray............. not Blue Peter Yes, it would be possible to varify the colors a bit more, might get a bit cluttered though. I have a code snipet from a 'footprint' chart that someone did over at multicharts. It does an x ...
