He's trying to find ways to MEASURE and define these market conditions. you reworded his quesiton.

This question is for Gyles or Roger Rines: Do either of you guys have any experience with OpenQuant? If so, could you share your opinion relative to these other strategy development software packages?

I must be confused. Why wouldn't you just use the same equation you used to figure out the average range for 10:31 to 10:32? I don't understand why it matters if it's in a larger range if it's not going to affect anything.

Or, more specifically, friend's and family's money? It's only with Forex, and it seems like the regulations are very iffy and contradicting. A broker that I am talking to is requesting that I provide him with info about how I'm registered/able to trade this money. Do I need to be certified...

thanks

which programs should I be looking at? Even with Tradestation I have heard a lot of bad things regarding the backtesting results from currencies; although, I am contemplating just putting 5K in the account to find out. I am looking for the best software to use to get accurate results. I don't...

Seriously! Most people in this thread are either recommending brokers or are LOOKING for a broker. You come in here and say they 'took' 20K from you without a story?

Not concerned with portfolio-testing at all. Seems like a lot of new systems out from when I looked last. Just looking for the most accurate (and reliable) backtesting software. I'd like to be able to test on a wide range of markets, and obviously the quality of data is a concern (if I can't...

Newb question, but I'm having a hard time with more information. Is each DAX contract just worth 7,xxx.00 or is it for 5, or 10 units of the current DAX? Also, how much is each "point" worth? I'm coming from currencies. One "lot" or contract is 100K. Each point is .0001 (pip). Do I have to be...

????????

I have a feeling there are a number of people who would strongly disagree with you that are lurking on this site. But if it makes you feel better ...

Not all of them. Obviously if you do a few hundred pips a month based on the 1 hour chart that could equate to 3%~ a month. Now, lets say you trade the SAME system on the 1 minute where you essentially trade 60x more. You would obviously tone down your leverage to the point where you expect...

Scalping for that kind of profit target is indeed as difficult as it sounds. I consider myself a scalper but shoot for +10.

I appreciate the reply. We do not have a physical location at the moment anyways, who requires us to have an office there?

Can anyone recommend a good, reputable website for registering a Nevada LLC?

FYI... and just to clear up, I believe they're all expressed in realized p/l.

YOU IDIOT!!!!! :p

I have come to the conclusion that people with one post who come to troll and proclaim that a widely used method does not work usually don't have the slightest clue as to what they're talking about. Technical=not just indicators.

One thing I've sort of never been able to grasp is.. why set your profit based on round numbers? Makes no sense to me. Why not place your stop at or below some peaks and troughs? Or your t/p at a place of resistence/support? Just curious :)

Sorry if this has already been answered. Why don't you get it programmed and let it trade by itself? Seems like a waste to me.
