Matt; No offense but could you please clarify this. Received
this message from MedVed. I though it was free. Them: "You may be
mixing this up with QuoteTracker. That was free to TD Ameritrade
clients because TD Ameritrade owned it. Medved Trader is not owned
by TD Ameritrade. It is completely independent and we do not
currently have any deal with TDA. We have a marketing thing with
Ally but are not owned by them or any other broker."
man you guys get worked up over nothing. I hate when
people use the phrase no offense because in reality they are
offended LOL
dude - you can't install and run the old Medved Quote Trader, I
have it installed on an old computer and have tried everything to
get it running.
When I Googled ways to see if there was a work around I saw the
new Medved and installed it. Yes they charge a fee but I
thought it was free if you only used limited features like NOT
trading through it but maybe that's not the case. Now that I look
at it they might charge even for limited use, but it's free for a
month, then 20 bucks a month so 15 a month for annual.
then try it for a month for free then if you find you can't live
without it, pay for it, that's cheap, if not then no big deal
nothing lost.
now I do have a Think or Swim account, I think they are owned by
TD Ameritrade, I still need to see if I can some how get the old
software running, but if I can't, I may keep this, I don't care
about $19.99 a month or I would instead buy the annual which works
out to $15 a month - that's 3 starbucks lattes, jeez
I have NO affiliation with Medved and do not get any kickbacks
etc
Matt, have you considered TradingView platform? It seems to
offer excellent charting, quotes, etc. Just curious as I'm looking
to change from StockCharts to something a bit more user
friendly.
I have an an account at Trading view but there is NO WAY it can
be used to replace our newsletters the way we have Stockcharts
actually integrated into our server - I showed this on the Zoom
meeting a couple times. It's what enables us to build
newsletters quickly with 50 -80 charts. If we had to do that
manually by saving screen shots of the charts and loading them into
the newsletter it would add 2 - 3 hrs at least. We do NOT
save chart images from Stockcharts and post them here like you guys
do. We literally just click a button to add a chart to the
newsletter or trading community. Also we have 1000's and
1000's of charts and many custom indicators that are not available
there or would take months and years to re create.
again for you guys Trading View is awesome, but for building
newsletters, Stockharts is better
Matt- did you notice the balloon indicator on trendspider...Its
amazing. comes very handy especially when stocks try to break out
and also in understanding DOJI candlesticks
thanks, I have not heard of them. But then again I have enough
damn software at this point coming out my eyeballs:
Stockcharts for the newsletters, Trading View, Tradestation,
Ninja Trader, TS 2000 etc and way too many brokers: IB,
Tradestation, AMP futures, Think Or Swim, Etrade Pro, Fidelity,
for me I'm trying to narrow things down. Having this
website actually hurts Steve and I from a focus standpoint. Steve
used to be a member - all he did was use the newsletter for trade
ideas and some market stuff, then setup his alerts and quote lists
at night and focus on those the next day. now both him and I
are pulled in every direction from trading to posting stuff,
managing multiple accounts, also analyzing markets, commodities,
precious metals and tons of trade ideas.
the best traders out there laser focus on something and have a
strategy they stick to. Be a specialist not a jack of all
trades. Whether that's focusing on a 2/3 or a handful of trade
ideas only or even only doing trade ideas that have coils only.
focusing only on precious metal stocks, focusing only on the
indexes. Or even focusing on a few pet stocks so you really
know how they trade: One guy here trades MSFT and has a system for
trading it. For me I like to trade coil stock patterns and tight
flag patterns. I also like to day trade ES futures and I have
a system for it
Matt, I have no idea how you do all the things you do and I
admire you for accomplishing all you do. You are pulled in so many
directions. I can't help but believe that you and Steve will have
to add more members to your team over time. I am not a trader. I
manage about $250 million of assets primarily for one client
family. I use a lot of technical analysis in my work and have
plenty of resources to help me. I stumbled across you guys several
years ago and have always been impressed. You do really great work
that I always find extremely insightful and reliable.

I"m glad you said this. TSLA, SHOP and TWLO represent my
wins for this year. Everything is just noise albeit positive
overall. I'm new to trading, so is it that way all the time?
I don't necessarily think its easy.

Totally agree.. all my money this year I made only on TSLA AMZN SHOP and rest was all small positive between the wins and losses
