    I can provide no proof that you are wrong. Maybe someone else, who is enjoying the new MarketCarpet or RRG, will chime in to provide some insights. I didn't get much from the StockCharts.com Expert Karl Montevirgen's use of the highly useful MarketCarpets tool, other than to look for things near the middle of the Bollinger Bands, i.e. the 20 day Simple Moving Average line.

    Well, you could argue that indicators don't tell you anything that is not already there to see on the chart.

    But, they do make it easier to see.

    So it is with RRG and MarketCarpet. They are different ways of visualizing the market. Yes, the information they present is already available, but, depending on your cognitive style, I suppose, they make it much faster and easier to summarize and process. It probably helps to know ahead of time what your are looking for. If you know, you can find it pretty quickly if it's there. And if it's not, that's pretty easy to see, too.

    The "Stochcharts Team" is heavily promoting the MarketCarpet and RRG in the Chartwatchers newletter. Keller has said that the RRG is an institutional money manager quick reference tool as most are only judged on performance vs $SPX.

    Geez, after reading all comments from this post, I wonder if I made the right decision to renew my subscription! It seems that many "experts" are leaving the mother ship. The service is sometimes lack luster. As for myself, I'm not a day-trader, so Stockcharts fits my style of trading and investing... for now at least! However, I've noticed a lack of upgrades on the site. Plus many "new" stuff which you have to pay for (Options, Larry Williams, etc.) What's a subscription good for if you don't get access to simple stuff like that? I'm probably from the old school of getting full stand alone software, compared to today's norm of monthly subscriptions. I hate those! (car payments, cell phones, Photoshop, and now AI's by the dozen!) which could easily ramp up a monthly bill in the thousands of $$. 'nuff for me.

    I barely use ACP which I find a bit difficult to navigate on. For the past few months, I had been using TradingView, and I find it was fast, reliable, and with tons of people writing free (and not free) indicators. I even tried to create my own, and even with the free version, I was able to make them work!

    I've also noticed one peculiar thing when I renewed: you can't get any refund for your yearly subscription anymore, as it was the case in past years, if you want to cancel it. I've been a member for close to 20 years, and I renewed maybe out of habit. But today I wonder if I took the right decision. Time will tell....

    Glad to FINALLY find a place to discuss Stockcharts. I've been following all of this, I would love to know why DK left the company. He is super super senpai when it comes to understanding TA. I was also wondering what the heck Grayson had got to.

    I’ve noticed that GONOGO Charts seem to have quit providing YOUTUBE updates. Anyone know what, if anything, has happened to them.

    Grayson sighting, on a video with Tony, working on the new Options ......
    I wish they would keep working on upgrading StockCharts, instead of these tangents .....

    My opinion is that the best part of StockCharts actually left several years ago. These were the people that built the original platform and educated the users on how to use the system. On the development and data side, there are only a couple of that "Team" left that have over 5 years with the company. This is why they haven't really "improved" the site in many years. The new "Team" talent has no ability to program the old system. So they recreated the wheel on a new programming platform and are working with that as they can't work with this. That's a shame. I'm sticking with the classic as long as I can.

    The better bloggers/ shows, in my opinion, were Arthur Hill, Greg Schnell, Tom Bowley, Bruce Fraser, Martin Pring, Dave Landry and Joe Rabil, My reason is that they not only are great teachers and, for the most part, also expert users of the StockCharts system. They can teach you what, AND also how.

    I don't know if DK's departure was a shock but you could kind of tell that he was a little less enthusiastic in his last month or two as an employee. He's still a StockCharts blogger. Grayson, I have no clue. He's still listed as Director of Operations.

    GoNoGo are posting weekly blog articles. Some have videos attached. I like that duo. I don't have be plug-in, but you can use many of their technical filters in scanning. The "continuation" ones appear to be decent.

    I have an Arthur Hill subscription for rotation trading in NASDAQ and SP 500, I rate it as excellent, I’m very picky about what trades I take.

    I have the GONOGO PLUGIN, I have no clue how to see / get their blog posts

    I agree, Arthur Hill is excellent. When he was with StockCharts he did most of their tutorials on how to use the site. He also did a great series of articles "testing" many different trading systems. I think he lives in the Netherlands now, like Julius de Kempenaer.
