Hi I thought I give a update, I have purchased Bullcharts after using it for awhile. I think the program is great and has the ability to maybe the best charting and trading program around. I have the live data which is excellent. The weblink tools are excellent and the more I use the program the more I like it. I still use MA4 but Bullcharts is a better designed program that is designed around how a trader thinks. I look forward to talking to other users about how to get the best out of the program and share tips and trades Cheers Dart

Brendan,
Although it may be too late, there are 2 things I have been wanting to see in BC for a few years now. 1 - We can drag scroll horizontally with left click mouse but still cannot drag scroll vertically. This would be good for studies where the tool drag points are off the chart. 2 - When putting a Fibonacci (or any indicator) on a chart it would be good to keep the text data for the indicator in view all the time instead of scrolling off screen when zooming. Thanks |

We can send you 3.6.6 which uses dotnet 2.0 and a new database. Please email info@bullsystems.com for an upgrade. It is only available on CD due to the new database. Normally the upgrade is $10.50 to cover the media and postage. Brendon Edited by Brendon |

So is there officially a new version?? Do the rest of us have to fork out the $10.50? We have all been waiting patiently.
Will the new version fix the bugs? |

I ordered my CD already, can't wait for it to arrive. We've had so many free upgrades so I don't mind paying $10.5 occasionally. Bullcharts could have offered a download rather than a CD though, if they got the bandwidth.
Anyway it's good to see things moving. |

The Layer Manager provides an option to selectively hide individual lines or groups of lines. For example, you are able to hide all indicators as a group or one by one. The Layer Manager also gives you convenient access to the properties of the indicator or drawing tool by double clicking on the item. Another benefit of the Layer Manager is to be able to more precisely select a line if they are too close together. Tagging stocks by colour in watchlist and scans By applying a tag to a row in your watchlist or scan result, BullCharts allows you to better analyze your stocks efficiently. You are able to apply up to 6 different colours to tag groups of stocks around a common theme. It may be based on whether the stock is short or long or to look more closely at later to buy, sell or hold. The coloured tag method is often useful for a ‘first pass’ over stocks in a scan result list before you commit to adding them to a watchlist. Once you have applied various coloured tags, you are able to sort the list based on Symbol, Name or Colour. The order of the colours is customisable in the Properties for the main WatchList folder. Changing the default Sort Order You are able to change the default sort order for all new watchlists. Select the WatchList main folder. You are also able to have a particular sort order for each watchlist. Some maybe based on colour, name or symbol. Select the watchlist name that you wish to modify the sort order for and then double click. Select the Sort Order tab. Changing the default tag colours Similar to the sort order, the default tag colours can be changed by double clicking on the main WatchList folder and then select the Sort Order tab. There are a maximum of 6 levels to select from and can be any colour. The preview shows how the row will look like when not selected (black text) or selected (white text) to achieve the best colour contrast. Selecting rows based on tag colour If you wish to copy or create a watchlist based on the tag colour, select the row with the colour you wish to copy then press Ctrl+Shift+A. This will highlight all rows of the same colour. Next, right hand click on the row and select the appropriate option such as Create New WatchList, Add to WatchList, Copy, Delete or Export as examples. Stop Loss indicator relevant to selected stock Stop loss indicators can be set to be particular to one security rather than all securities. Tick This indicator is relevant to this security only. Defaults for Indicators · Line colour · Line thickness · Visible/invisble - show hide a plot in the Style tab · Convert period – on the Advanced tab for an indicator Defaults for Drawing Tools Defaults will now retain the selected Ratio Templates for Gann and Fibonnaci lines. Bug fixes · Text label would be lost when you synchronise two charts · Windows did not synchronise when one window had stacked panes · BullScript editor is able to check a script as being valid. If there is an error, the cursor will be position at the start of the syntax that is not valid · Crash when the default template included Stacked panes · The last used workspace did not save the synchronised windows status · Line study did not retain the new default colour when restart BullCharts · The grid icon on the main top toolbar is disabled when select a chart - · Moving average scan problem with MA type with a space in the name - eg Time Series · Saving the Gann Angle in an IntelliCharts caused an error · Sometimes when scrolling in a watchlist the stock symbol does not match the company name · Delete wrong row in watchlist · Retain the same order of windows when you open a workspace · The Delete icon not active when select a plot to delete · Retain the Synchronised window state when save a workspace · On a weekly chart, the volume bar was displaying daily data. · Metastock users - when add a symbol to a watchlist the Intellichart appears in a non standard location and hence not available when scanning etc · The stock symbol PRN caused a problem when in a watchlist.
