A question received from a new user:
Hi, Thanks for the replay. I am sorry I looked around but I don't see enough things to tell me what's the "incredible" about? Please enlighten me.
We would appreciate some honest feedback. Do we live up to our name?
Regards, Colin

Colin, I think IC is great. I have used MDS for a long time, much more expensive, a lot of indicators which are quite complicated. IC provides most things that I want at a very reasonable cost.

Colin
It is difficult to provide feedback which would be relevant to a person who has maybe only had a very cursory look at what IC offers
One wonders what he/she is seeking
Apart from my online broker for live course of sales and live intra-day charts I now rely totally on IC for my chart access and tools for technical analysis
It is always possible, and sometimes good, to dream of what might be done in the future
If I could click on an IC 1 minute chart to bring up a buy/sell order with market depth displayed and place my order right there and then for entry into the live market (with or without leverage  ) it would be close to "Utterly Incredible"
In the meantime I am fully satisfied with just "Incredible"
With Best Wishes
Hilarius
I come in peace to share my thoughts and to shine my candle light on possible long term opportunities

G'day Colin and new user
"Incredible" is just part of a name of this very cost effective package of charting module, scanning module, forum and support.
IC occupies a niche. Horses for courses.
There may be charting packages around with more bells and whistles but I don't use most of the indicators in IC anyway.
One of the biggest advantages for me of IC is the maintenance of the database to which I have to contribute nil effort.
Perhaps "new user" could mention what he has found and how he would use the "incredible" facilities of similar packages to IC.
If IC is not incredible, then what is (in the opinion of "new user")?
In other words what would make this package "incredible"?

One can only conclude that the enquirer has had no experience whatever in trading or charting.
I have another sophisticated charting programme but I choose to use Incredible Charts for its user-friendliness, as well as the click-and-go customisable interface.
Support via a forum is first-class. I would have to say that after being a member for a short time, you begin to feel as if you know the manager and other forum members almost personally.
The customisable add-on indicators, time frames, candle/point-and-figure charts + more, and the sheer encyclopaedia of definitions accompanied by most common use, or reasons for use etc make the whole package Incredible - no doubt at all.
There is not another product out there to compete, and this one is free.
I have to conclude that the enquirer has no idea what is actually in the package - he does not know that he does not know.
I do!
I suggest to the newby that he give IC another chance.
It is only when you use the features (and remember they are free) and actually make a couple of contributions or pose questions to the forum, use the stock scan or search facilities, and compose a few charts for yourself, that the lights will come on.
Give us another chance - we are definitely worth it!

Ahoy Admiral Col'n
Have you dropped the 30 day Free Trial?
If not? then What a "Silly" questionaire
This leads me to question the mental state of this "New" prospective member
Sorry but at my age I am too busy getting my own ship in order each day than venture into "Silly Pedantics"
Salute and Gods speed

G'day again Colin
It would seem that the motivation of "new user" was to get members/Colin to help him/her find all the "incredible" parts to IC.
I that case I would reply "enlighten yourself" by joining the forum and asking for help. Most of us here are not paranoid and are only too happy to help with genuine questions.
But first a genuine effort has to be made.
The pity about this thread is we are not getting any feedback from "new user".
Am I talking to myself again?
Then again, if I was paranoid, I may think Colin has put up a "Dorothy Dix" question.
Anyway, thanks again Colin for the incredible FREE upgrade including the customisable toolbars and additional drawing tools.

Macca888,
No. It is a real question.
But I was fishing for feedback on a specific development objective: How do we rate on ease of use? It received two mentions, but I believe that we can still do a lot better.
Regards,
Colin

Ahoy Admiral Col'n
I know you can do a lot better!
If You want the truth?
I'll give it ya (As Duuggie would say)
Not ONE of my suggestions has ever seen daylight!
Good luck Duggie with your dream of VWAP on IC
I can't even get a vertical line to line up all my indicators? This should be Fundamental!
I can promise you, There will be a very strong "Protest" if the VWAP comes in ahead of my Vertical drawing tool!
Anyway I have lost patience and have ordered the RR $2000 programme with a $1000 /year charge for Data!
"Data is everything!"
Surprisingly enough?
After all these costs
This so called Rolls-Royce programme can't do a few things the IC package can do and is therefore still "a must have"
AMAZING!!(Please Don't ask me about this! Just Dig for it)
Confidentially I feel IC has lost its way over the last few years after the introduction of advertising monies and has concentrated on the Chat Forum in lieu of Technical advancements
This Larconic/Lack-Luster approach to the betterment of Technical Analysis has just positioned IC as an important Add-On in my opinion
I repeat
Incredible Charts is an Incredible Package but best used as a Plug-in for the Professional user
For only $180/year "It is truly Incredible that these high priced ($2000) packages can't do what IC can do?
That is "Incredible" and
Hence "Incredible" is still apt
Salute & Maybe I'll see ya in the Sin-Bin?
Crikey! I hope I have not been TOO honest?

It's INCREDIBLE value.
Sure there are extras I'd like but on balance it's the value!
It all depends on one's needs really.
When my supposed 512 Broadband is slow [how does that work?
it can be frustrating but when I remember other software would have data costs [alone] at least twice the total cost of the premium version, I also remember that one of the ways to be profitable is to cut expenses that are unnecessary.
I don't need live intra-day data but am very happy with hourly updates on AUS stocks to review my watchlist for the day [I usually avoid trades in first hour anyway].
Still hoping, of course, for similar treatment of UK and US stocks. I noted that this wasn't on your "complexity" list Colin. Where would it fit in?
That does not ruin the INCREDIBLE VALUE!
I agree with previous posters, this is just a facet no one else has mentioned.

CC,chum,
YOU have to tell them what THEY need.It's a bit rich,mate to denigrate the Forum function when YOU have maintained an attitude of NO PRODUCTIVE Chart/TA wise Chat.
I don't go along with this attitude that TA is d'Wonder.To me it's the Market,the Share Market that one has to understand,get in to.
That is the constant,d'Constant State of Flux.That is [the Market]that is constantly Out Doing any Indicator,most of which are lagging,"aids' to what one's eyes should See and Guage at a Blink.
I can see how a vertical line down thru the Indicators May Help in Chart Reading but I have never seen any ANY posts by you,CC,that would help do d'CONvince.
So I'm really looking forward to you,CC,joining in Argument,Replying to Contra Points,Setting out Viable Parameters.
Yeah,I'd rather see that than posts by d'Prat who laid this question on us.
Whatta ya reckon is INCREDIBLE,dude?What do you expect to be FREE??
Happy Trading.
tick [1] VWAP in the upcoming "Whata we Want" subscriber poll of additions to d'Value 4 $'s IC chart programme.
VWAP is d'Tool of Professionals,TRUE!!
