create a new focus list |

is real Time

create a 60 minute period, and leave the daily - only tick the
option to show Votes - if you will use that time period.
- Go Edit Trading Strategies - and tick only the minimum
such as just Guppy-Darvas to start
- Go Edit Patterns - enable support, consolidations and
trend lines as a start. [To view the pattern Tool Bar you need to go
View Toolbars - enable Patterns, then place the toolbar at the

is a box to enter symbols in
