True about the awesome oscillator. I do like to see the histogram though and I believe you can replicate it rather easily by changing the settings fo MAs, but I have had issues with scaling.
At the risk of getting even further off topic I have not been able to find LRC either.
Is there an Overcharts thread? The coding platform seems pretty straightforward. I couldn't find much of a community support presence online. I am not a skilled coder at all but I have tweaked a few on TOS, could prob develop what I need on Overcharts given time something I am very short of these days.
Hello!
I was wondering if anyone uses Overcharts as your trading platform. I like the features it has and how it looks and since it supports rithmic, I understand I can use it with any broker that supports it (Ironbeam in my case).
Thanks.

There's not much in it right now, but it would be the best place for more posts on it. Maybe there will be wider interest if more goes on there.
FYI, you can find threads sometimes by using the Search box in the upper right corner of every page, which is how I found this, by just typing in "overcharts" and seeing what came up.
Given that it's there (and I didn't know either, and hadn't heard of it), let's put any further discussion of Overcharts in that thread, so discussions of the platform will be kept together and not go off-topic in this thread.
It's no problem that the platform was discussed here, of course, but it will make it easier for anyone who is interested in it to find posts addressing it in its own thread, and it is more likely they will get answers there too.
Thanks.
Bob.

I would like to know if anyone can share their experience regarding taxes with earn2trade? My understanding is that you get a K-1 to report your profits which are considered long term capital gains. My question is if you have losses in a personal brokerage account, can the gains from earn2trade be minimized by personal brokerage losses? I may not be using the right terminology and I know most will be heistant to answer citing not wanting to give tax advice, but this is the scenario I am talking about, hypothetically:
I have brokerage account with Interactive brokers, lost $2,000 tradinhg futures in 2020. My 1099 B from interactive shows $2000 loss.
I have a live funded account through helios (earn2trade funding partner) and made $3500. My k-1 from helios shows $3500.
How would that come out in the end in terms of taxes? Would losses cancel out my gains so that I am only taxed $1500 capital gains?
Also, would carry forward losses apply to profits shown on the K-1?
I apologize if the question is confusing or if I am not using the proper terminology, hopefully someone understands my question and can help. This will make a difference in which firm I choose to attempt getting a funded account with in the future, if I go that route.
