    There is telephone support with Sierra. It will cost you, but there is.

    Ensign vs Sierra vs Ninja

    I use Sierra, I really like it. The only thing I would have them improve on is the backtesting. Far too slow IMO. They do have a great feature with auto trading though with a excel worksheet feature. It is how I come up with all my formula's etc. So they have a ways to catch up in that...

    How long should you paper trade before trading with real money?

    This isn't the best advice. I had about 3.5 - 4 years of backtesting with 1 hour candles in ES and while forward testing encountered some things I have never seen before in the marketplace. If you are risking a % of your net worth on this it would be best to get 10 years of information and...

    So this was probably my first and last ever FOREX deposit

    Yep totally my fault, now I have that calender on lockdown if/when I start back up. Lesson learned. And it did move .65 infact

    So this was probably my first and last ever FOREX deposit

    Sorry, let my emotions get the best of me. Being discretionary in a highly leveraged position was tougher to handle mentally than I anticipated.

    As I am sure you were. Good luck the rest of the way through life.

    So this was probably my first and last ever FOREX deposit

    Yeah that would have helped about an hour ago. Sad thing is I will most likely be back for more abuse after I lick my wounds.

    Fin Min Kan can kiss my ass for the record - I guess I didn't get the memo lol

    So this was probably my first and last ever FOREX deposit

    Ummm.. USDJPY 30+ cent move in 1 second? Are you kidding me, and I'm short that and out my whole account? Maybe that was the best $250.00 lesson I have ever learned. Edit: 65 cent move in 30 seconds.. Is that even real? Im pretty pissed, but almost laughing at the same time -...

    What software can perform correct Market Order backtesting

    Dont worry about how many are on each side then of course. You can DL Sierra for a trial I believe, the MODS are pretty nice too as well as most of the members if you have problems etc.. GL

    Technical Analysis of Gold

    Nice chart Although this specific situation to me looks like a bear flag formation, but I have been fooled before. Where did you get your middle indicator?

    What software can perform correct Market Order backtesting

    I use Sierra and all my programs use market orders. Although most of my programs run 1 hr time bars and they fill at bar close. What I would do is if you are running a lot of intraday trades is to get Seirra then just sim it with a live feed and check the results. Then replay it at the HIGHEST...

    how to protect trading strategies for a colocated server

    Im not going to write any checks I cannot cash, but just state my POV. But until you (not specifically) can define what HF Strat means to you personally, I think it's only 50% of the equation. Because even if they handed you everything you wanted on a silver platter it does not mean you could...

    how to protect trading strategies for a colocated server

    If the outcome is just to reverse engineer I guess I would go the way of not being possible. We still have to define how this trades anyway. IF it is a true HF Strat as I stated above, to me *IMO* that is more of a liquidity provider than anything and you would definately need the funds...

    how to protect trading strategies for a colocated server

    I have absolutely no background in analytics. I am strictly about pattern recognition, I literally sit and watch replays continuously until I puke for many different securities/derivatives with many different time frames/tick charts/vol charts. Then of course I just up with a formula for what...

    how to protect trading strategies for a colocated server

    IMO there are far too many possibilities to be able to predict the code unless you are sitting at the server looking at the formulas. Think about it.. How many different technical indicators are there, and how many ways can I use them? Almost infinitely I am guessing. Another thing would...

    Usd Index Weekly Wave

    Are these yours? Nice, although I do not get into waves personally. I have never researched them to be honest. But what I can add is that I am somewhat of a pattern recognition junkie, if there is such a thing and I recognize the pattern of this chart quite well with 1 hr candles. You...

    anybody else stuck in gold from $1115?

    I think right now its going to play the game of "back and forth" with the 50 EMA Daily. IMO it will not come back one time from the 50 and swing down towards the 200 EMA Daily. Although I could be wrong and it swings back right up again.. Could def. go both ways, although I really think...
