oh..he meant a trial account with a prop firm..yes..the usually charge $200 for first loss..then $100 to top up..load of rubbish..those who are lucky enough to get past the trials usually blow up after a short period..why..simple.. because they haven't a clue what they are doing :)

fwiw..again :)..been there and done that in relation to volume analysis and trading for ticks I laugh now when I see all the hype about order flow and the buzz words such as icebergs..etc..load of rubbish..does nothing but prevent you from looking at what you should be looking at...

just trying to help you..believe it or not..as I said..I hope you prove me wrong!!

I spent a lot of time setting up ES charts and DOM to trade the MES..can be done by what is called "symbol mapping"..after many hours of testing with live data feeds..I found it to be a total waste of time..so much so that I now have just the MES charts..no DOM..no volume analysis..no T&S..just...

what I don't like is that I see no stops or no take profit entries..that 06:02 to 06:08 went into loss by a good few points..a lot more than you made on it even by just glancing at the chart I plan to have a stop and take profit on every trade I do..still working on setups..very important to...

not sure if it is sim or papertrading..but if sim account is not linked to live Globex data then it is useless.. papertrading account is nothing wrong with papertrading once it is taken seriously..it is exactly the same apart from place in que..so if you enter one tick above or belowe you have...

small ones I hope :) main thing is to try and be net positive each day..once that is achieved it should become easier to improve on performance

this time it worked out!

lets see what happens at the open?

so far so good..but I am more interested to see your losing trades to be honest! I tried all the different variations of volume delta with Sierra.. Multicharts and Qtrader..with Qtrader I was even monitoring daily CD as well as their proprietary AlgoTrades monitor..in the end I just scrapped it...

not exactly..he said that they draw support and resistance lines not using the wicks..which is similar to using the LOC chart for S&R lines..this..like everything with trading works some of the time..but not all of the time the main thing is that there is a big difference putting on a trade in...

the setup I have is what I require..there are reasons why the LOC chart alone is not sufficient..if I explain why it would take a good while for someone to understand..as it has taken me years of trading and learning a few things from other traders with more experience than me..also..some people...

the chap that posted the ebook made a point that is relative a good deal of the time..but not all of the time..same way that every trade cant be a winner..no matter how good you get at trading!! can you see it here?

I have 2 monitors..one is a 50" Philips cinema tv (1920 x 1080)..the other I just got today and installed is an AOC 32" Q3277PQU (2560 x 1440) have re-arranged my layout to get more viewing on the MT5 multi charts with the AOC higher resolution and put the 6 day 5m line chart on the 1920x1080...

I just thought it funny when he says "better to use no indicators"..then in the strict rule examples has from MA to CCI :) the ebook is ok..as good as any of the stuff you might pay for..but it lacks precision..and it is precision that will make you some money trading the best way to learn how...

again..fwiw..forget about mathematical indicators..total waste of time imo..I have tried loads of different setups using volume analysis..Sierra charts..Multicharts..CQG Qtrader..and a few more..all I can say is I learned a small bit but it was really of no use for trading the ES or...

fwiw..spent last few months testing various AMP platforms for MES trading..decided to go with AMP Global EU..they only offer MT5..but with Stereotrader it is fine what software are you using with AMP..what is your strategy ( one liner will do)..what time/s can you trade..how many monitors do...

what can I say..same old story..i don't post that much now as too busy testing and practicing..it takes a good while to get everything set up correctly so that you can trade effectively..it is not easy..but it is very boring!!! you are still all over the place..last post I remember from you was...

blanket statements do not mean anything! if you mean trying to make a few ticks and risking a few ticks..or..trying to compete with the algos and hft traders..then yes..MT5 is not good for that..but neither are the other platforms I have tested..such as IB TWS..Sierra Charts..Multicharts..CQG...

yes..the creation of your desktop workspace for trading..index futures setup will be different to fx setup..etc..etc..it is just that I find windows based trading pograms very similar..not really an issue as I got the hang of your java based program quick enough..maybe "bit messy" was the wrong...
