| Easy-to-Use, Customizable Workspace | X | X | X | X |
Easy-to-Use, Customizable WorkspaceWhen you first open eSignal, you'll know how to use it because it's designed by traders, for traders. The eSignal workstation customizes your experience so that performing basic tasks, such as building workspaces or adding studies, doesn't distract you from your primary objective -- making more money in the market. The eSignal software is translated into 9 languages, including English, Spanish, Portuguese, German, French, Italian, Russian, Chinese and Japanese. |
||||
| Advanced Charting | X | X | X | X |
Advanced ChartingeSignal's advanced charting is designed to meet the needs of active traders and investors, integrating with the other eSignal tools to optimize their workstation experience. A variety of chart types, chart intervals (OnDemand limited to intraday, minute bars), technical studies, drawing tools, alerts and trading integration functionality offer a high degree of customizability. Chart types that come standard with eSignal include: Candlestick, Bar, Line, Histogram Area |
||||
| Specialty Charts | X | X | X | X |
Specialty ChartsSpecialty chart types available with eSignal include the following: Point & FigureThis classic chart type gives technical traders and market analysts a unique perspective on the market that removes many of the smaller swings in price and that requires a significant change in trend before the Xs (up trends) change to Os (down trends). Trend lines are often used to highlight key support and resistance levels for optimized trading. The Fixed Scale option ensures that the relationship between time and price is equal. Wyckoff Calculation allows boxes with just one X or O to be stacked with their previous box, further compressing the market when there is a lot of sideways movement. RenkoThis chart style, invented in Japan, takes time out of the equation and bases the chart purely on price movement. A new up "brick" is created when price closes above the previous brick's high by a specific amount. The projection option draws the bricks in place as if the interval were closed at the current time. KagiThe Kagi chart type has lines drawn vertically and not separated into bricks (as with Renko). A new vertical line is drawn whenever the specified reversal amount is achieved, and the time interval closes. Just as with Renko, a projection is drawn with real-time data to show where the next line will be drawn. A small horizontal reversal line shows where the price has to go for a reversal to happen. Price BreakThe Price Break chart type will reverse when a certain reversal point is met; this amount fluctuates based on the price action. In essence, the price has to reverse against the last 3 boxes in order for a new direction to be colored. The Price Break chart comes with optional projection coloring. |
