Welcome to the MarketDelta Weblog!

Posted in News by tharnett on January 27, 2006

This Weblog is designed to provide MarketDelta subscribers and other interested traders free commentary covering various topics of trading and the markets. It will be exclusively focused on MarketDelta and will initially will be categorized into 4 topic groups. The categories are as follows:

  • (1) Commentary & Reviews
  • (2) News
  • (3) Trader Profiles
  • (4) Webinars / Appearances

    • Commentary & Reviews will have the most contributions to it. There will be uploads of MarketDelta screenshots from me, as well as, snapshots recieved from others who choose to send them along for posting. I expect this to be very popular with many people because it will provide a non-invasive learning exercise on a near daily basis. News postings will just be related to updates to the MarketDelta software and other news related items. Trader Profiles is a new addition that I think many will benefit from as well. The idea here is to interview a MarketDelta subscriber on a monthly basis to hear a little about who they are, what they trade, how they are using MarketDelta, and what is their favorite use or strategy with MarketDelta. Lastly, Webinars & Appearances will keep everyone up to date as to when the next webinar or live seminar will be, where it will be held, and what the topic will be.
    For those unfamiliar with weblogs, please visit this CNET FAQ to learn more. To begin receiving updates anytime something new is posted here, I would recommend installing FeedDemon.

    • Kannon, you pose a very good question. I will pass it along to James who is the person who I interviewed for the trader profile you are referring to. If I hear back from him, I will post it here.
      In the meantime I will give you my feedback. Basically, the MD indicator is a measure of volume and which direction or “side of the market” (bid or offer) more volume is taking place. Think of it as where more order flow is occurring. Range bound markets are usually two sided, meanign there is just about equal order flow to the bid and to the ask. Trending markets often exibit more order flow in the direction of the trend. Another way to use the MD Indicator would be with Market Profile concepts and the value area. Example: If we open above the value area from yesterday and maintain a positive MD indicator value, it helps confirm the strength of the market and helps to minimize the chances of the market trading back down through the value are from the previous day. On the contrary, if you see the market open higher and a negative MD indicator value develop, you should be cautious about trading the long side of the market and possibly look for short trades. Hope this helps!
