Since the close is so important I dont know how one would use, at least reliably, TS data using volume bars. I would think that your system would be much more accurate if using more accurate and correct volume bars.

If this really is a shill, which is pretty obvious it is, for Tradingzoo, dear God this is some marketing strategy. Makes me really just want to sign up!! You'll probably just say that you have no affilliation with them, and blah blah blah. But, as with most vendors of this type, are...

Why not just go with a market thats either all electronic or side-by-side? There are plenty out there. Corn, Oil, Oats, etc. I would really consider if you want to trade the actual pit contract. There are post around here that some people would get screwed hardcore trading pit contracts...

I had a demo of sierra and they did not build them correct at all. Here is a list of software that I know builds them correctly: -Multi charts -Open E Cry -Ninja Trader Not sure about Esignal. I havent used them in some time.

Tradestation doesnt build volume charts correctly. If you are not using TS, chances are yours is the one correct not Anek's.

Is it not just a %D and a MACD. Using divergence?? I've seen the TI method as well as the felton method, and they are very similar. Throw in the fact that roger used to be a teacher at TI and it is pretty safe to say that its basically the same. I highly doubt that he came up with a whole...

All it is just the traders international method. Save yourself the thousands of dollars and just look around the internet for divergence set-ups. All companies like this do is prey on newbie and failed traders. It is not worth the thousands upon thousands of dollars.

Never have used tick charts so I can't really comment on them. But, nonetheless, i attached a 233 tick chart for today for you to compare.

Anyone trade anything else then the ES. Today the euro and crude oil had some good moves. Also, might want to take a look at bonds. Probably best to stay with markets that don't move together. That way when one market (like the ES today) is choppy perhaps another market will be a nicer...

Depending how much volume on the day there is and what volume setting you use, a "few contracts" could result into A LOT of bars that should be there that aren't. Trading is hard enough, I wouldn't be caught dead trying to trade on data that just an approximation.

I use MC to trade ES, CL, and 6E. I don't use any automated strategies which I guess some people don't think MC is so great for. But for the trader looking for just for charts MC is great. Here is a pic of what i got for a 5000v chart. I put a volume histogram to show that every candle...

Multicharts. You can use all your EL scripts so it saves the time of trying to convert them. You can also choose from a number of data providers so you are not tied to TS.

There is no way to fix it. I went through weeks of talking with them and their response was its just the way it is. That is why I left them. Just something to keep in mind.

I hope you know that using Tradestation and using volume bars they are not formed correctly. Put a volume histogram up on the 5000v chart and you'll see what I'm talking about. Just and FYI

So if this was really true, why not just go the CTA, CPO, or hedge fund route and forget all the BS that comes with running a trading room? The management fees and incentive fees would dwarf anything that could be possibly made from a trading room. Perhaps that in order to make money through...

I believe this is called the "George Costanza" methodology. Never used anything like this myself, but it worked for him! :D

I used to use a projector. But after the novelty wears off, it is not really practical. The low resolution will get real old real quick. I was using a wireless mouse and keyboard and that became cumbersome as well. Better off just utilizing a desk with a nice monitor with high resolution.

So basically this trade just "doesn't count"? Wish it worked like that in the real world.

Still holding this long?? If you are, what made you stay even though the position was almost 100 points against you????
