Someday, tick charts will be available to the masses. And by that I mean with the convenience of pulling up any stock or index we want. We'll be able to create the box size we want (number or log), press the button and convert it to a 3 box, or 5 box or whatever. Click another button and create S&R lines where we want them. Eric, the day is today (as long as you have Quote.com's datafeed) :-) New version of QPnf (version 2.0.0.12) available at: pnfcharts.com Download the zip file, extract to your harddisk, double click on QPnf.exe and go. This version includes: 1. Tick charts on all stocks, indices tracked by Quote.com, in real time (as well as 1, 5, 10, 15, 30, 60, daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, yearly charts). 2. User definable box sizes, reversal amounts. 3. Alerts on recognizing patterns in real time. I am going to be adding SR lines, and log charts soon. -Atin

Gad the Wheelan method of charting intraday data is a pain! I was just trying to implement this in QPnf but having both an X and an O in the same column was not something I had planned for. Oh well, guess you'll still have to wait for tick charts that do a 1 point reversal, 2 boxes minimum per column with a mixture of X and O in one column if the price reverses after only one box is filled in a column. So close . . . I had the 1 box reversal going, had to 2 column minimum going and then I hit a column where the price reversed after one box. My choices were to ignore the reversal until two boxes have been filled, or give up. I gave up. I will plan for both Xs and Os in one column in the next rewrite of QPnf but I don't know when I will actually rewrite it (the last time it got rewritten was because I'd managed to lose all my code! Now I make serious backups!) -Atin
