    Should I change my broker so I can get Kenetick?

    Thank you for your answer. I appreciate it. I will explore this route. It doesn't sound too complicated to achieve.

    Should I change my broker so I can get Kenetick?

    Not the same. There are subtle differences that I do not like, and I don't want to have to relearn everything (in terms of subtle clues, etc).

    Should I change my broker so I can get Kenetick?

    It is my understanding that Kenetick is just DTN IQ designed specifically for Ninja Trader. I currently use Ninja Trader. I use the free version, and my broker is AMP Futures. My data feed is CQG. Last week, CQG switched over to a new protocol at CME. You may be able to tell by my writing or...

    What do you think method of taking 2 ticks per trade

    Perhaps I trade differently from the guys who post here. I read price action. I don't use indicators, nor do I use trend lines. The only line I will put on my chart is an occasional horizontal line. I made a mistake coming here looking for others to talk to.

    What do you think method of taking 2 ticks per trade

    expectancy, tk It's odd because I don't understand hardly anything anyone is saying in their replies. I am self-taught, and I don't measure or keep track of my trading in the ways that are alluded to here. I have practiced on the simulator for 2 years before going live in October, and mediate...

    What do you think method of taking 2 ticks per trade

    I only trade the first two hours that the market is open. Usually the trade is good for at least 4 ticks. But I feel more comfortable only taking 2 ticks, and then waiting for the next trade.

    What do you think method of taking 2 ticks per trade

    I forgot to include that I trade the ES. Yes, it is 2 ticks per trade, and I don't pay any mind to the percentages you mentioned. I win every trade with only rare exception.

    What do you think method of taking 2 ticks per trade

    My target is 2 ticks, and my stop loss is 4 ticks. I make 3 successful trades a day trading 2 contracts, and then I am done for the day. I suppose most people would say my target should be a least 4 ticks. But this method is working for me, and I am able to support myself financially. I am...

    I am looking for ideas about how to find an office for day trading

    What I had in mind was an small room inside of a commercial establishment. Some place where I could go and close the door behind me, and day-trade in privacy. I want to be able to come and go as I please, and I don't want to feel odd or out of place going there. When i did a search for key word...

    I am looking for ideas about how to find an office for day trading

    I live alone in an apartment in Boise, Idaho, which i share with 3 cats. I day-trade the ES. It is difficult to trade from home because my cats are a constant distraction, mainly because they are bored. I have tried locking them in a room, or myself in a room, but they only meow until the door...

    how much profit will there be on this scalp after factoring in slippage?

    I am successful at scalping on Ninja Trader's Market Replay. I use methods that i have learned from Price Action Trading Systems. He scalps for 6 ticks, and goes for 6 because I think he said (in his videos) that you tend to lose a tick or two (slippage?) so that it ends up being a profit of...

    how much profit will there be on this scalp after factoring in slippage?

    If I enter long, for example, on a limit order with four contracts and my target is 3 ticks on the ES, how much profit would be there after factoring in slippage, and spread (please ignore commission for this example). Thank you.

    What color candles do you prefer

    lately I have started using black and white, which makes the colored trend lines (of which my charts have many) easier to see. Red and Green candles make the colored trend lines harder to decipher.

    Do I use ESM3 or ESU3 for Thursday June 13th trading (Market Replay)

    I was out of town on Thursday for work so I was not able to view the charts live that day. I am playing catch-up with my Market Replay, and I am unsure what contract expiry I use for that particular date. Thank you.
