Additions: New Charting Indicators
Chande Momentum Indicator (CMO)
Measures the strength of price movement by evaluating both gains and losses, providing a more balanced view than traditional oscillators.
- Above +50: Indicates overbought conditions (potential selling opportunity)
- Below -50: Indicates oversold conditions (potential buying opportunity)
Summary: Helps identify when price movement may be overextended and due for a reversal.
Chaikin Money Flow (CMF)
An oscillator measuring buying and selling pressure by analyzing money flow volume over a set period, rather than cumulatively.
- Positive values: Indicate buying pressure (accumulation)
- Negative values: Indicate selling pressure (distribution)
- Default setting: 20-period (typically 20 days)
Summary: Helps identify whether money is flowing into or out of a security over a defined timeframe.
Directional Movement Index (DMI)
A trend indicator that measures both the direction and strength of a trend using three lines: ADX, +DI, and -DI.
- +DI above -DI: Indicates an uptrend
- -DI above +DI: Indicates a downtrend
- ADX: Measures trend strength (regardless of direction)
- Default setting: 14-period
Summary: Helps identify trend direction and the trend’s strength
Ultimate Oscillator
A momentum indicator that combines three timeframes to provide a more balanced view of market strength and reduce false signals.

Reconcile Trade Notice
The Tags including the P/L Summary, Graph and new Insight tabs rely on updated Journal entries which includes reconciled trades.
The following notice appears in the Journal when trades needs to be reconciled:
![]()
All trades in the trading account(s) selected will display with the option to change back to Regular View:

Individual trades are reconciled by clicking on the “Reconcile” tab outlining the Journal Entry.

The Journal Tab will update showing the trade had a profit/loss or adjustment in the underlying.
Updating Journal Entries
Logging into your account will update Journal entries for up to the last two months. However, trades that expired will need to be Reconciled. If the system is unable to match trades, a Yellow ‘Close’ tab will result, requiring manual action to close.
Follow the steps as shown below to reconcile your trades.
Note: Step 2 is not required, however, if you are just learning to use the Journal and it’s features, sorting by Symbol, especially if you have multiple trades, simplifies the process.
