S&P Messenger Pro Tutorial: S&P Messenger Pro Icons (Page 2 of 5)

Key Message Filter
When clicked, the Key Message icon filters out all messages except today's actual trades, forecasts and live charts. These filtered Key Messages appear in the message dialog box, just like ordinary messages. Click the Key Message icon again to return to All Messages. The Status Bar at the bottom of the window will show whether you are viewing All Messages (White), or Key Messages (yellow).
Support & Resistance Numbers
When clicked this icon displays the Support & Resistance Panel. The panel identifies both Initial and More Important Support and Resistance levels for today's session. These are the price levels at which Messenger Pro may initiate new trades during the session. They also represent forecast market movement to the next level shown. Click this icon again to hide the Support/Resistance panel.
Daily Turning Point Calendar
When clicked this icon displays the Turning Point Calendar. The Turning Point Calendar forecasts dates of future daily market tops and bottoms. A Red Square placed on a future date with the word Bottom indicates that date (+/- 1 day) as an upcoming market bottom. A green square placed on a date with the word Top indicates that date (+/- 1 day) as an upcoming market top. Special instructions or commentary will appear at the bottom of the calendar regarding a specific turning point date. Click this icon again to hide the calender.
Directional Trend Meter
The DTM (Directional Trend Meter) utilizes colored bars to forecast an immediate trending market from a specific starting price to a specific price target. The starting price is always at the center of the DTM meter. Forecast price targets are shown at either the top or bottom of the meter. Green bars identify an advance to the price target displayed at the top of the meter. Red bars signify a decline to the target displayed on the bottom of the meter. The DTM remains grayed out until a specific forecast market move is imminent. The DTM is located to the left of the message section of the Messenger Pro window.
