I hope someone has a good solution here. I have been using logmein.com to access my home computer with ninjatrader for a couple years now, but today we got new computers at work with all admin privleges gone, and whatever else they did. I can still access logmein, but when it tries to...

Ok...........I came up with my own theory. The market makers know that there are stops above 2206, so they accumulate knowing that's where they're going to take it. When they get all they want they buy just enough more to goose the market up. Others jump on board a little late, stops...

I was expecting that pecker poke to occur & continue on down. Seen this exact type of day before. It was hard to catch the beginning of it though as I didn't really see a signal/setup. I almost got in at the beginning, but talked myself into being more patient. Anyway I got some of it...

The event I noticed at 9:42 was price closing back above both moving averages on my chart, which finished setting the trap for anyone who went short when price dropped below both ma's a few minutes earlier. So as far as the large spike in volume does it come from stop orders getting triggered...

What causes the volume spikes you see sometimes on the 1 minute chart? It's quiet & boring & stuck in a range, then all of a sudden volume jumps from 500 to over 2000. Anyone know who causes this or why it happens this way? I thought the big guys liked to disguise their buying, and I...

Just checked out an ES chart. It's a much clearer picture. Uptrend in the morning, then 2 rectangles formed for about 3 hours, with very clear supt & resist. There were some nice little pokes below the supt lines to trap some traders which is what I'm used to seeing. If I would've had...

Why was NQ, and I'm assuming the other indexes. so much different today than normal? Very low volume, no shakeouts or stop running. Just a very slow, steady, uptrend. All of the pivots that formed during the day were never violated, not even one of them. Where do all the traders go all...

Who are the biggest players in the NQ? Who is responsible for making the market move from one level to the next? Are the market makers the ones who control the movements, or is some other group in control?

Every day there is a large volume bar in the last 10 minutes of NQ trading (before the stock markets close) (right before 4:00 ET). Where does all that volume come from? What happens in the last 10 minutes every day to cause it?

I have the internet open & NinjaTrader with 5 charts & the DOM. I day trade NQ futures, but I don't scalp (an occasional one here & there). I usually hold for minutes, not seconds.

Can you post a chart or explain further? I'm not sure exactly what you're describing.

I'm not real knowledgeable about computers. I see all these fancy & expensive trading systems people use, and I wonder what do they give you that a basic home computer doesn't? Am I missing out on something by using what I currently have? I have Verizon DSL (just basic service like joe...

The pattern I asked about goes along with the phrase, "the first move is for amateurs". I'm trying to figure out why that is so. Amateurs (& maybe others) get in early, then get stopped out when price reverses, and then price goes right back in the direction the amateurs thought it would go...

I love the volume bars. I also have a chart with time-based bars on it that I watch. I already use support & resistance.

Good point. There may be no stops there at all. But I do observe that behavior just about every single day. I'm just trying to understand better who the participants are in the market & what makes certain things happen. I used to get stopped out on those moves all the time, so I'm very...

I see this pattern or whatever you want to call it happen over & over in the NQ (I'm sure it happens in other instruments also). The easy, obvious short comes along for example & then price reverses, traders are stopped out, and THEN...........it falls. My question is why does that happen...

I'm using NinjaTrader. Anyone know how to create something like a 200 day chart for the NQ? Zen-Fire doesn't support continuous contracts. Any way to plot the cash index?

You always say it's best to learn from the mistakes of others. From what I've seen others who try to be in every single move usually fail. Maybe there are some out there who can do it, but the ones I've seen that are successful are very patient and only take the very best setups. When you...

I have learned the phrase "Sweet Fuk All" !!! I use it on a daily basis now.
