Click the indicator icon (looks like a little chart) up in the toolbar at the top left of the screen & this will open up the indicator panel. Click on the DoubleMA Paint_SharkyPkg (7 ZeroLagEMA / 3 ZeroLag EMA) and change to PAINT BAR = FALSE, then click on the SMI2 indicator and change SHOWPAINT BARS = TRUE), hit APPLY, then CLOSE & your chart will now paint the bars based on the calculations of the SMI2 instead of the DoubleMA Paint indicator

The following user says Thank You to TheWizard for this post:
hmm.. I thought this was going to be a place where people posted their results using this method. I will post how I have implemented this against the YM. I am still getting things worked out on the order entry part but what I did was use a 10 Range chart instead of ticks. I like the way it lines up so far. I had pretty good results this morning though I am still struggling with the flip flops of bar colors.
I have implemented to the charts very well. banked $650 with wiz's method and my usual signals from TI. the systems seem to compliment really well.
i don't know why that pic doesn't show up in the thread!
edit: added it as attachment. I commented on my trades on my Blog https://stonertrading.blogspot.com/ Tried to do my best to promote big mike's too, cause you guys are great!
good trading today wiz! I Didn't use the Hg today because of the light volume. still banked a few ticks though on the one trade I did take. Its on the blog here is a screenshot
ES looks remarkably like TF today (as it often does). Trippy chart, man. Cool colors! When volume is light, I often go to a smaller time frame (115 tick, 77 tick, etc; sub-multiple of 233, or in the case of ZenFire useres 1151; 575; 288, etc. etc.) but you have to be careful. Nice screenshot! Have a good Pittsburgh evening.

Just change the subject, the white dots of your chart, can they help as well? I know you look at them for choppy times, but I've notcied you miss alot of the trend or sometimes really get in late cos the dots are telling you its too choppy.
Telly,
I'm not exactly sure how Sharky intended them to be used. I use them to identify 'chop' & will generally move my stop (up / down) to 'just' above the highest high of the bar that's in the chop in a down-trending area or 'just' below the lowest low bar in the chop in an up-trending area, as a safeguard. Usually, I just see them as identifying a rest-stop for price in it's trend upward / downward. They don't seem to signal turning points, just resting periods. I don't pay too much attention to them otherwise. Hope that answer helps. Not feeling too mentally focused today. Cheers!
