Momentum Settings
The StreetSmart Edge® Momentum tool is customizable, allowing you to choose
which columns of data to display, as well as the order of the columns. Access the
Momentum tool Settings by right-clicking in the Momentum display and selecting
Settings..., or access it from the Actions drop-down menu.
See Column Descriptions for details about each available column.
Momentum Parameters
Time Frame
Adjust the Time Frame slider to determine how far back
in time you want the Momentum tool to gather data.
Setting this value too low may result in very volatile,
"spiky" graphs. Increasing the time frame tends to
smooth out these spikes and may help spot possible
longer trends. Set the time frame according to your particular trading style.
Market Speed
Adjust the Market Speed slider to help the tool compensate for how fast or slow the market is moving. The
default setting is geared toward tracking higher volume,
more active stocks. To track less active stocks, move
the slider toward the slower end of the Market Speed
setting.
Sorting Rows
Sort rows by clicking the header of the column on which you want to sort. An
arrow next to the column name indicates the sort direction (ascending or descending).

If Auto-Sort in Real-Time is checked in Settings, changes to data in the
sort column will affect the current sort order in real time.

Activity Rates change for each symbol, the list will re-sort itself to stay in
order of Activity Rate.
Customizing Columns
There are several ways to rearrange the columns displayed in your Momentum
tool:
