Q What is a ControlPoint and Prime-Line Cluster?
A ControlPoint is a confluence of Prime-Line Elements on one time frame. Prime-Line Clusters are a confluence of Prime-Line Elements at multiple time frames. ControlPoints and Prime-Line Clusters define multi-fractal clusters of support and resistance within the market matrix. ControlPoints and Prime-Line Clusters give you control because they help predefine risk.

Q How do I use Prime-Line Tools in vMax Trader?
When you enroll in the Prime-Line VIP Star Trader Program, Prime-Line Tools are activated in your software. The Prime-Line Method™ is described in our Breaking The Market Code Course (Prime-Line Matrix Course). To use vMax Trader with Prime-Line and to understand trade setups read this documentation (included with Star Trader Training).

Using Prime-Line Tools - called shapes in vMax Trader is easy: click Insert > Prime-Lines or Insert >PL Extensions on the program menu or click the tool short-cut icons.

Clicking either of the above drops the tool(s) onto the graph surface. All tools in vMax Trader can be dragged and precisely placed on the price chart. To drag any tool simply place the cursor over tool or solid node points, hold down the left button, and then drag into position.

To use Snap-To, place your cursor over the hollow node point and left-click. The cursor changes to a +. Moving the + cursor over the price bars highlights them - when highlighted, left-click to bring up the Snap-To Dialog. From the dialog window click the appropriate price to snap to.

When charts are zoomed down it may be difficult to accurately ascertain which bar to snap to. There are two tools to assist in this case. First, as you move the cursor a Data Information Line at the top of each chart displays open, high, low, close, (modal point values for VolumeEdge -MyTradecast Stock Pro members only). Second, Region Snap will automatically snap to the correct price. To use Region Snap: 1) Place the Prime-Line tool on the chart. 2) Left-click the hollow node point, then left-click a start region price bar and while holding down the left mouse button drag across the region to select the end region price bar. From the drop-down dialog, select what point to snap to. You will find Region Snap to be very accurate and fast.

Q How much data can I chart?
When you set up a Project you can set the Start and End Dates.

Q How do I get Prime-Line values?
Getting precision values of Prime-Lines and ControlPoints are critical. We've made this easy in vMax Trader using the Cross-Hair Information Box - all the information you need is here. You toggle the Cross-Hair on-off by clicking the "+" icon on the Menu bar. 

Q How do I save my charts?
vMax Trader asks you if you want to save your work. However we suggest you save all your work periodically by clicking Ctrl+S, File > Save, or the Save icon. The program has the capability to save unlimited charts - the only limiting factor is the space available on your hard drive.
