One other tip is rather than have to save a scan to a watch list in order to click the symbol and have it populate in a chart, under the scan search results click the gear icon, go to customize, hit the drop down box, click action columns, click send to whatever color you want to link to that color chart. Then you can detach it and pin it to another monitor. This way everything is bigger and easier to keep an eye on.

I went to your website and bought your full course for $99 and I’ve been learning all evening. I honestly highly recommend your course to everyone. I very happy to have learned about the tight and the loose inconsistent spread in the “Tape Reading Strategies & Tactics” section in your course. Thanks so much 😊👍🍺🍺🌴🌺

Thank you very much! I appreciate that you donate your time to help out noobs, like myself... most KZfaqrs are trying to sell a course or even a simple TOS script. I just noticed in the "read more" that you DO offer courses, yet I don't recall you mentioning that or if you did it was subtle and didn't at all detract from the lesson... and, $99 is pretty cheap, I would wager that taking your full course would likely add over $99 a day to my trades, though there would be a bit of redundant information that I've already learned (still a noob though!).

Awesome video. Thank you! I would add to include the yellow link on your chart screen, so anytime you click on the symbol you can see it on the big chart instead of the little one. Also, the bid and the ask may be useful to include so as to show the spread. A stock trading with a 2 cent spread between the bid and the ask is easier and quicker to fill than a stock with a 30 cent spread, and can result in bigger gains.

@CarlosRodriguez-vg2ob 3 жыл бұрын

GREAT VIDEO, i have a question in regards to the scans and the watchlists. how often does the scans refresh, they how often does the watchlists scan and finally is there a way to speed up the scans or the watchlist to load the results of the scan in real time? also if im using the 1 minute chart or 5 mins charts, when i set up my scan and i have something like the study of "price direction" should scan for the same timeframe as the chart I use? im asking because if i use the 1 min charts but the watchlists or scans dont refresh until a few minutes later then is there a benefit?

@rubenm1535 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for this amazing video. It's super helpful. Question: are these scanners for pre-market as well? I heard that TOS doesn't track price change until market open (so volume change must be used). Is this true? And that "% change" is only for market hours, but that "Mark % change" must be used pre-market and after-hours. Is that correct?

@master_the_market 3 жыл бұрын

Yes you can can use any scanner during market hours or extended hours, just make sure to have "mark % change" showing so you can see % changes in extended hours, which are otherwise only shown during market hours!

During trading hours because it will slow you to take advantage of it quickly when new stocks pop up on the scanner! If you wait until after the close there’s a good chance you’ve already missed a majority of the momentum.
