[isatrader]

thanks for the info Marcus. well appreciated..... ques., are stockcharts.com & tradingview.com services free or do they charge an annual fee?

Both have free charting available. But the subscriptions can be worth it imo if you are serious about your trading. I use the Extra service on stockcharts which is about $25 a month. But that lets you use their excellent custom screener, store hundreds of chartlists, and get real time data via the Bats exchange. You have to pay another $10 for real time data from the nasdaq & nyse with proper volume data etc.
