CQG 2017 Latest Features
The following features and enhancements are available in CQG Integrated Client (CQG IC) version 2017.
Mark Fisher Chart (MBF Chart)
Mark B. Fisher, founder and CEO of MBF Clearing Corp, is one of the industry's leading traders and technical analysts.
CQG is excited to offer, in conjunction with Mark Fisher, the MBF Chart. MBF Charts incorporate Renko-style bricks on a time chart to enhance the interpretation of Fisher's ACD trading methodology of price levels for trading and pivot ranges. The Fisher Bars display the total volume of each brick and the volume traded outside the brick during the same time period.
Watch Mark Fisher explain the new chart and how he uses it in this recorded webinar.
