    Time to take a break from Intraday Trading

    Hi there, my vote goes to Lancair. Why build a bus when you can build a sports car :D I started on a Vision aircraft kit about 8 years ago, and still haven't finished it yet. Have fun, Schaefer

    Loosening up your stops?

    Okay, I haven't contributed lately, and it's time for a good deed. The key here is not about winning, or losing the trade, but how much profit versus risk you take. If you're risking 30 points for the sake of not getting stopped out, what is your profit target? Is it achievable? Is it...

    trading the Euro using QuoteTracker+DTN ?

    False volume spike, causing QT to print multiple false bars. For example, you have specified 100 share bars, you get a false volume spike of 1000 from data vendor, you'll see 10 bars in a straight line. You can adjust the volume spike filter in QT, look under preference. Schaefer

    Roadmap for QuoteTracker?

    I've been with QT for a few years now, and still very happy with the software. I use Zeroline Trader for order management, so I have no problems with the order entry part. But it is showing it's age. Due to legacy limitations, we still have to deal with the shifting trendlines on Tick...

    hsi vs n225 futures

    Hi Don, The Nikkei 225 Mini on OSE wins the liquidity department, hands down. It's liquidity rivals that of the ES. I can't comment on the bigger contracts on the SGX, as I do not trade them. But here are some useful links for you...

    Help with the 'magic tick'!!!

    Well, that would cost you another five bucks :eek: Look at it this way, if you keep looking for confirmation one bar after another, you'd never get in. The key is to look at the big picture. These magic ticks, and 3BRs don't mean anything, if you're not looking at the big picture. For...

    Hi, Lakeshow, we could always create a private chat room on ET. Regardless, I'm all for it, but I'm not sure if N225M traders would be of any help at all, as we are strictly day to day traders, and we have no market bias. Schaefer

    Schaefer's Journal of Nikkei 225 Mini.

    Hi, MK, I'm glad you're enjoying the journal, and thank you for the tip. I'm a blue collar day laborer by day, and a wanna be day trader by night. So I have to keep my expenses to the minimums. A good advice I've gotten from Kiwi a long time ago was that, if I did not know what I was...

    Thank you Learner, I'll try and adjust to the present market conditions. I think, it's great that more people are trading it. I wish, I could get those rates from here. I'm paying 300 Yen round trip to IB :( I'm going to have to emphasize more on intraday swing, versus scalping, as my...
