Peter, First, thanks for all the effort you put in to making the Carter’s squeeze more widely usable and efficient in TOS. Your work is truly helpful. My question: I am a little unclear as to what the “aggregation” button means when building a custom script for a watchlist. I assume it is the range to gather data. However, with the squeeze, it is either fired or not fired at any given moment. So does it really matter what the aggregation window is? Note, I am doing day trading, so I need minute-by-minute feedback in the watchlist. Do I just set the aggregation window to 1 minute then? Thanks, -Davide

So I have a question to ask related to this. re: Custom Scan Queries and using Aggregation periods, it seems that we have to use the predefined set (dropdown list) of Aggregation periods in TOS and that we cannot define our own. (e.g. 54 minutes) as we can do with TOS Charts. In Charting, we can specify an aggregation period of 54 minutes. If we want to do this using our own Custom Scan Queries, how would we accomplish this?

I see, that makes sense. So if I want instant minute-by-minute feedback, then I set the aggregation to 1 minute. Got it. Thanks again, -D Marked as spam

The aggregation period you select for a custom watchlist column, scan filter, study alert, or conditional order is EXTREMELY important. It is equivalent to setting the time frame on a chart. Whereas a squeeze may have fired on a 5 min chart, it may or may not have fired on a 15 min, 60 min or daily chart. So this needs to be set to whichever time frame you use to look for signals. And for a watchlist, you add multiple columns if you are tracking signals on multiple time frames, which is the specific example I gave in those videos. Marked as spam
