BIMI v10 Edit Study
BIMI v10 Edit Study
1. Log into TradeStation v10. You must add BIMI to your chart before trying to edit it
3. Within your chart, go to the Chart Menu Bar near the top and Click-on:
a. [ Studies ] button and then Click-on
b. [ Edit Studies ] from drop-down menu
* Choice of 17 colours to contrast most chart background colours – see over the page for the 17 colour choices.
** Note 7 – If you switch this off by changing the word to [ false ] then Leg-IN/OUT candles will default to their usual
colour so you will only see the basing candles coloured on your chart. Switch on with the word [ True ]
Note 18 – Squeeze IN % (i.e. emphasis is on the basing candle bodies compared to Leg-IN candle body)
This variable allows you to restrict the body size of ALL Basing Candles to a percentage that is less than
the Leg-IN body size
If you change the number 500 to 25 then individually, ALL of the basing candle bodies must be less than
25% of the Leg-IN candle body otherwise the pattern will not appear on your chart. Default is 500%.
Note 19 – Stretch OUT % (i.e. emphasis is on basing candle bodies compared to Leg-OUT candle body)
This variable allows you to restrict the body size of ALL Basing Candles to a percentage that is less than
the Leg-OUT body size
So if you only wanted to see patterns on your chart which effectively have a strong Leg-OUT move away
then you would focus your attention on this variable e.g. if you change the number 500 to 20 then each
of the basing candle bodies must be less than 20% of the Leg-OUT candle body size otherwise the
pattern will not appear on your chart. An alternative way of interpreting this change to 20% is to say
that the candle pattern will only appear on your chart if the Leg-OUT body size is at least 5 times the size
of each of the basing candle bodies. Default is 500%.
