I have been using Ninja Trader but I am frustrated w/the lack of add-ons and functionality when it comes to charts and idicators. In particular the ability to be able to size charts up and down. It really bugs me to not be able to size a chart and see a whole days worth of data on one page...

Woudn't you say though that someone should probably paper trade until they can be somewhat succesful on paper. I would think if you can't do it on paper then there is no way you can do it in the real world. Paul

I've only tried the ES. I have heard that the ER2 is a little smoother. Maybe I need to look around a little. Thanks for the input. I appreciate it. Paul

My problem is I have been moving my stops manually during the trade as BlackBison said he does. I am good for 2 points a majority of the time but have not yet been able to know when it's going to trend/run so I move my stop back thinking I am going to give it some room to play and sure enough it...

OK, that is my fear so, would you suggest the trail at maybe 1.25 also? I am mainly implementing this strategy because I have been using large stops sometimes as much as 2.5 to give a little room for play but this has been working against me. I am trying to find a nice medium between not to...

Constructive criticism only please. 1. A stop will be placed upon order entry 1.25 ticks from the entry point. 2. Once reaching the profit target (2 for this example) the stop will move 3 ticks behind the current price once a new bar is created and this bar is at or above the closing...

Man, you are just asking for trouble with these types of questions around here. Good luck.

Also, it sounds like they just delete the whole thread instead of just locking it so that at least the good information that was given can be seen by anyone doing a search. It doesn't benefit anyone when the whole thread is deleted.

Thanks, I am REALLY happy to read that. It was good info. I actually did good this morning (Volume was there) and did not do so good this afternoon. (Volume had switched). Makes me feel good that what I think I am learing hear has some validity.

Question about contract change if you please. I am a total newbie and have been following this with great interest. I have been doing REALLY well this week due to ES and others input on this thread. Today, I did not do as well as I would have hoped and it just felt a little weird compared...

What is the '99' issue?

Thanks... I was just looking at the DAX FDAX correct? It did not look like it had alot of movement at least right now but maybe thats just me. Does it have good volatility at times? Thanks.. Paul

Is there a recommended Index to trade in overnight that might be somewhat compareable to the ES? Thanks....

I completed the task as well but my light bulb only slightly lit up. Part of my issue is I am using Ninja Trader and am having trouble getting the chart's sized t corretly to show all the data for 1 month. Let me ask a few questions at the risk of being the village idiot. I also PM'd ES...

Are there ton's of companies looking for Algorithmic programmers and Quantitaive analysysts with programming skills and proven strategies? You would think these large companies know what they are doing. So why is there such an argument on here about it? Paul

What Advance/Decline indicator is being used? Thanks... Paul

ES is it possible for you to post a chart with lines drawn like you would do it and speak about the different levels as you see them on the chart? That would help me greatly. It doesnt have to be current. It can be in the past. I just want to try and get a better idea of what you are seeing...

What time frame are you guys that are doing OK w/the ES using? I am finding right now at least that a 5 minute chart is better than say a 1 minute or 1 tick chart. I'm just learning and paper trading. The ES does not have a lot of movement now. I am told it's the time of year but being green...
