$TICK

I finally figured out how to use multiple data streams with Tradestation, so I can make a trading system using $TICK data. My thanks to rogerdoger for showing those daily charts with $TICK included. I'll let the board know what I find...after I get out of my food coma. D

On these multiple data streams, if you figure out how to do then with different time frames (for instance trading a strategy set on 15 minutes only when the 60 minute strategy agrees, I'd sure appreciate it. In other words a way to test and maybe trade a fade up or fade down within the 60 minute time frame. Thanks in advance for your efforts.

On the "look forward to it." Ditto.

This is very simple in TS.

If you want to flip fast try the $TICK with the SPY on the same 5 minute chart. Pretty well shows when to get in and out since the SPY is usually short term trapped in a 0.7-1.1 channel for a day trade short or long.

I also overlay the MACD with the %R on the same chart to get a 1-2 minute heads up on a potential MACD cross. The trick is don't stick around to long and get ready to cover after the $TICK approaches or goes over either -1000 or +1000 depending on whether you are short or long.

Hi, RD or KC, I'd really like to learn how to apply $tick & $trin in trading, can you please recommend some books or articles about them? Thanks.

Maybe Danz will write the book on it!

There are some of my notes in the Investors University board.

It includes an interesting piece from Brett Steenbarger's blog

and an attempt to clone Mark Cook's tick indicator
