    Trading Dow futures by TICK

    I've seen dozens of TTM's videos. The strategy is not to scalp long at tick extremes,,,,the strategy is to fade 1000 tick readings (or established tick highs for the day) on sideways days and when the trin is sideways. The strategy is to go long on tick hooks when the trend is up and when ticks...

    Free automated trading platform, for IB

    If you do make this software, when do you plan to release it? Are we talking a year or months? I've been using QT, and the one thing that everyone has always wanted is paintbar alerts.(ie. pop up with sound when an indicator or MA crossover occurs). Apparently this feature would really slow...

    Free automated trading platform, for IB

    I like how QT srcipting is setup for the paintbars. Will it be possible to have trades automated if the 20ma crosses the 100MA, or based off of indicators. (ei:If 20ma>100ma buy next bar and stop and trail with 1.25 stop on ES) I'd like to try out the simulated version when you got the beta...

    Trader P/L 2006 Questions and Discussion

    This thread speaks the truth of how hard trading really is. It kinda reads like: "Confessions of an Elite Trader". No one really wants to hear how hard trading is, they just want to look at blotters and think of how much they could be making if they were trading. Sometimes people post...

    Good/bad trading rule?

    Everyone that posted is right. I've had intraday P/L's that were negative all day and I thought I would never recover, but I kept trading and looked for the next setup, just like how you play poker and take the next hand that is dealt and play it the best you can. Preserve capital and gain...

    What are your Trading Breakthroughs?

    Nice post. For beginning traders, fear is the hardest thing to break thru. You need to give your trade a reason for entry, have patience, and stick to your stops. I read a post on here where someone said, "If you ran a hedgefund, and you just lost 1million of your clients money, and the...

    Is the CBOT down?

    Yes, to everyone reading, my posts are all fake. Please disregard all my posts as being valid. Sorry I jacked the thread. I guess this thread can now continue on its current topic of how the eCBOT went down today. Here is the statement from eCBOT...

    All you do is watch the YM chart? It looks like you are pretty successful from your posts, so that is pretty amazing that you do it all from one product. Better to be a master of one trade than a jack of many. It looks like you position trade for longer holding times. Are you still planning...

    Anyone else having a hard time?

    There are tons of opportunities. I think you need a confidence boost. Maybe trade smaller size and have more patience for setups to occur until you get your rhythm.
