I believe that Velocity uses the TT API feed for Ninja and does not have any relationship with the Zen Fire guys.
Ninja will perform different based on the back end providing the data and orders and the messages back and forth.
Economic numbers come out at that time and if this is "news to you" than you need to redo the trading plan, but yes the moves and activity have increased due to the news sensitive markets we are in with all these pending unanswered credit problems and...
Keep us posted, I feel the same way you do and only look around this board for entertainment purposes but can get some nuggets now and than.
Trade well.
Both TT and Ninja are fine and the two top platforms for manual click and scalping methods.
Ninja needs a number pad to change size and until they add that in than scalping on TT is better if your FCM has a stable network.
What makes Ninja better...
You need to add in opportunity cost as this market the last few months has been rocking and that money was idle not working for all those traders. That was very costly.
The other brokers are just IB to Dorman or RCG and you end dealing with Pat eventually so why add a middle man and anothers hand into the commish unless they can add value in programming for some 3rd party marketing to your fund or program.
Pat and his staff are...
Thanks for posting that chart and I will not let this juicy opportunity go by.
I missed it once during the bubble pop of 2000-2001 in Tech because I was too early by about 3 months and lost confidence as I was still cutting my teeth on these longer term swing...
I get bad "JUJU" when I argue and try to talk shit around these places.
It also is a waste of time and I turn a positive potential market nugget into a pissing contest.
Just trade...make money and be grateful you are not a corp bitch having to put on that...
Sleep in.........Get your ATS going, let it trade the Eurex session and early US morning and have some fun money to trade US in the afternoon after the lunch period.
I traded from the west coast for the last 10 years and It was a 5:30 start for the econ...
Sounds like you had a winning week or month or trading and now this is easy?
The fricken market has so much range and opportunity that it is juicy now but wait til we settle down in Range and you can not cover up your mistakes and lack of discipline.
A BSD does not...
It may work if you get the the personalities and egos to mix properly
and allow the two way communication. I would be interested if you can filter out the newbies and make it serious traders only.
Check out this bias for the first of each month the last 6 years. Not a bad monthly trade at all. I bought the futures after after the closing waterfall and have bought puts on ES for protection below. Lets see how it works out tomorrow and will hold a...
This works well in the futures busines but does not really exist in the equity/options world. All the large clearing firms what an aggregator handling the support and covering the stupid questions and bullshit that they do not want to deal with
My contribution:
We have spent about the last three years developing our own data set and custom data base with tick data on 15 global meakets to cover high frequency systems and after all the work we have done and the $250K I have invested...
Ok.....I should have done spell check when I was flaming some other guy on that........ but risk, math and spelling are three completly different things. I do not state that I am a fucking editor and author but I I do trade for a living and...
Membership at the CBOE does not require a s7..............that is how that is done.......the qualificarion comes from being a professional trader and not a hobbiest just cutting their teeth.
First of there is "their" so you just lost some credability by not passing 6th grade spelling test.
The futures clearing firm (FCM) is the 5th largest in the world and that is what any floor traded product takes to go from the desk/floor into the...
Automate your morning trades and sleep in and catch the close for the afternoon run. Trade Eurex after dinner and dessert. Very doable and you get to surf the markets than pull out the long board or check out the Pros at Pipeline.
GC at 920 with in a week period from 860 is a move we like to see.......60 points is not bad price action and inflation coming back into play here.
Surf...... look like you got pounding inside at Pipeline with this markets.....better call for the jet ski and...
Could not have said it better and those true scalpers who consistently make money each week have mastered this... I am still working on the "master" part with my manual trading even after 10 years in the business.
