Turning on Training Mode 

To view the Training Mode Console, move your cursor over the Training On label.

This console window is broken down as follows:

To turn the training mode off, go to the Actions Bar on the left hand side of the Market Analyst window and left click the Training Mode button.

Using Training Mode

With the training mode enabled on a chart you can hide bars from view.  To do this you will first need to set the Time Interval and Interval amounts you want to use.

With the Training Mode Console in view, use the slider bars to adjust the interval settings:

 

The following Time Intervals can be selected:

• Bar
• Day
• Week
• Month
• Year

The Interval Amount can be set to any number you want.  Sliding the bar to the right will increase the value, and sliding the bar to the left will decrease the value.

Once you have set the Time Interval and Interval Amount, use the symbol to hide bars from view.

In this example the same data file is used, however the top chart has Training Mode enabled.

Using the Training Mode to hide the last few weeks of price action, you can now apply your analysis to the charts.

With the tools and indicators applied, you can begin adding bars back onto the chart and watch how the tools react to the new data.

It is at this point you can begin using the Trade Tracker to mark entry and exit points to gauge the effectiveness of your trading plan.

 

Intraday Training Mode

With the release of the Market Analyst 6.2 update support for intraday time frames has been added to the Training Module.



While it has been possible using Training Mode with intraday charts before, it was not possible to use Training mode with tiled intraday charts using different time frames (5 min, 60min etc) or different chart styles (5min Bar and 5min Gann Swing for example).  With the introduction of intraday time frames to the Training Mode both these items can now supported.
