i do like the layout of the chart station miner...
but Oanda and CMC are pretty much always within a pip of each other and chartstation seems to be out - in relation to them at least.
Morning chaps,peat yep I like the set up of it if you detach the charts then pretty well all you have on screen is charts,when they work they are fine,look at this http://www.dailyfx.com/charts/ChartStation.html and you will see who followed who last night,today they may test last nights high and lows,usually one of these 4 give you a trade,roddy I don't watch AUD(thought you traded eur/usd?) anyway when eur/usd and usd/chf are messy usd/jpy and eur/jpy are tidy and vis versa.

Hi Miner
FXCM power charts not quite 100% at present ,wont be trading off them tonight[V]
and yes i like the Euro,but seem to get run over at times!
I can see roughly how your system works with 4 monitors and
seperate charts,not sure i could handle the high pace that it would require at times
cheers

Morning roddy,yep the Fing charts died at about 6.30 last night as soon as things started to move,so I have got up early to look for a trade and guess what they are still toast,never mind as this weekend will have a look at that other site.
As for the 4 screens remember I only play one at a time,but use the 4 to see what each is doing,as for eur/usd it has been a sideways mess lately so don't play it,usd/chf (it's opp mate) has been the same,but eur/jpy and usd/jpy have been tidy enough so play them.
So out of the 4 I pick the one(well one of the two to play,as they move in pairs),so the pairs to play lately have been eur/jpy and usd/jpy,going off my cr*p charts these two have done what I thought,so now would draw a VERY basic miner trend line on the daily's and be looking north for both,BUT don't get that stuck in my head,stay flexible.
Out of the 4 look at these 2 and you will see that unlike the other 2 they have had runs,rather than messy channel stuff like the other 2,also if a pair has BIG tails on it's candles(mainly 15min,5min and hourly) then dodgy to play as to easy to get taken out,look for when there are small tails and a run on the hourly,15 and 5 min charts,also lately Friday night and Monday morning have been good times to be watching.
Eur/usd and usd/chf have been doing messy spinning top stuff(daily) so why play until they sort out what they are doing,was watching them channel in about a messy 10 pip range yesterday and thought why do people bother,but then look at the last 3-4 daily's on the other 2,and you can see they are allot better.
See usd/jpy daily,and how this daily came back last night to test my very rough trend line on the previous 2 daily's,the KISS method.
Anyway rambling on,as well cant play on these charts,so hope some of the above helped anyway.
Cheers

Hi Miner
I'm still using the 4 screens with FX Power charts, but not having any trouble with them.
I am using IE7 (and love it)
Maybe worth an update.
If you do, back up your system first though, incase you don't like it.
Also, who are you connected through? ISP I mean. Broadband has been dodgy as over the past few weeks, and some ISP's are loosing connection to International pipes on a regular basis.
Luckily I have a cable connection which is rock solid

Well as the charts are still toast will dribble on a bit more,from the john key post the other day that you posted roddy,""It's all about pattern recognition and intuition and confidence. You need to be confident, but not cocky," he says."
So look at this chart http://www.dailyfx.com/charts/ChartStation.html this is my pattern recognition (and by NO means saying I am a spot on key's butt) but remember what I have said about the daily,now look at the hourly,you can see it has turned (around midnight)and is going to go back up to test 115.36(days high).
So if you were up late or early this morning you could get on to this pattern,this way you have some room when it tests the high so can hold in profit to see if it goes through on the new daily,if so then move your stop up to 115.36.
Ok now look at this one http://www.dailyfx.com/charts/ChartStation.html keeping in mind that these 2 usually follow each other,see how this one on the hourly has done the same, but a stronger move and ran higher,so they confirm each other,so when usd/jpy was a bit messy around 3am to 7am eur/jpy told you it would still go north,and like usd/jpy the daily ties in with the above.
So hopefully my charts are right and just a tad behind or that lot will be a load of....and there is still a few hours to the daily change but hopefully you can see what I am looking at with these charts??,and eur/usd is a messy south and usd/chf a messy north so they both help confirm the moves on the other 2.
Key taking the money and running was interesting also.
Cheers

Hi slam ta for that very interesting,as for the last few weeks my adsl has been dropping me off at least once a day even with Norton keep connection alive going,I use paradise but through Telstra, and could do IE7 once I figure out how to back up(you know me hate computers and know zip about them) be very interesting to know what you are using roddy and peat?,as slam may be onto the problem?.
Sounds like it may be the isp rather than not having IE7 though slam??.
What pairs do you watch on your screens slam?.
Cheers

Hey Miner
Your links to the charts just come up with the default FX Power Chart, not your selections. Your selections are kept in cookies on your pc, so when I click on the link, it looks at my cookies and displays my charts. If I didn't have any cookies ( ie didn't use FX power chart before) it would come up with the default charts that FX power chart display when you first go there.
Clear as mud[?]
Sorry Bud
