    How to get notified when a setup occurs?

    I think 'lots of programming' is subjective - it all depends on your level of comfort with logic in general. I don't know Tradingview but IMO most platforms that allow for these rules need some elementary knowledge of coding experience and logical operators. What you're asking, in essence, is a...

    How to get notified when a setup occurs?

    You don't mention what platform you use but, in most cases, it's a matter of translating the setup into code or rules understandable by your platform. A very basic example: your setup happens when price breaks the lowest value of the last three hourly bars. That translate into a code that looks...

    Futures.io - anyone an elite member ?

    Yes and that was my original point. The business model is different and that perhaps includes different levels of what's considered acceptable. As for "free speech", I think that's a huge red-herring. Today in the name of free-speech we are supposed to tolerate garbage, including massive fake...

    Futures.io - anyone an elite member ?

    Hi Overnight, I disagree about this: I frequent both sites. Lately I have been on ET more often but everytime I'm here I need to make sure my cringe reflex is well rested because I sure as hell will need it. Today I reported a user posting heavily in the Politics section because, to me, they...

    Now the idiotic Democrats think we should wear masks INSIDE OUR HOMES 24/7!

    I can't find the original video in the Fox channel. Can anyone? Otherwise this is just fake news much like on FB.

    How the Smallest State Engineered a Big Covid Comeback

    Good article. Whoever came up with that title used an unfortunate choice of words though.

    Why are Facts Racist ?

    Your line of questioning is tantamount to a post that states "it is a fact that a person born with one leg does not run as fast as a person with two legs". As long as the black community continues to be disadvantaged it will always be like comparing apples and pears. You might also want to...

    Limit/Market Order for Futures Contract Triggered by Cash Indices

    This has little to do with the broker. Generally it is the trading platform that can achieve what you are after. You just need to pay the data fee for the CME exchange as well as the data fee for whatever cash market you are interested in. Then put both markets up on the platform and create a...

    Please explain this spike

    Not necessarily. Some unscheduled market moving news can trigger some algos to pull liquidity out of the markets, in which case a spike such as this could be sharp. In this instance it looks like a 28 ticks move which is not unusual, although FESX is usually thicker than other markets. In...

    Never trade against the trend

    Again, a generalization. I do short term scalping and I can't complain, but a friend much more skilled than me averages 4-figures profits daily since 2016 with the same technique.

    Never trade against the trend

    I find generalizations such as "Always/Never go with the trend", etc. quite simplistic. In this case, the qualifier "whatever time frame" does not help. There are countertrend trading techniques such as ultra short-term scalping which work well in certain markets, as long as one knows the...

    All bids and offers disappeared - has this ever happened?

    You don't mention which day, product or asset class was being traded when this happened. In general, liquidity dries up close to scheduled data releases. For example, if you were trading EUR/USD in the vicinity of NFP being announced and you were not aware of it, you might be looking at being...

    incometrader.com info?

    Ask your buddy to show you the guarantee to make 30,000 USD back. If you can share it here it would be of interest, even if only for curiosity's sake. If he does not have it, or it can't be shared, draw your own conclusions.

    In that link posted I cannot find specifics, other than the paragraph that says Is there more literature about it? Thanks

    Oanda refuses withdrawal

    So don't post misleading opening salvos to bolster your argument. Like any other established financial institution it's clear by this letter that they are trying to work with you to resolve the problem. They have explained what you need to do. So do it.

    Who does everyone use for macro research?

    Hi Al, The extent one uses macroeconomics data depends on what type of trading you do. For example, if you are looking to 'scalp' a few ticks here and there, it may not make much sense to understand current macroeconomic trends. Similarly, if you day-trade, i.e. open and close positions within...

    CME issues guidance for the Open

    I had read as much - but not that he was actually convicted.
