You'll have to save the new layout under Settings.

A related question, is there a software that'll allow market replay at varying speed using downloaded historical tick data (i.e. from www.tickdata.com)? Ninja has a market replay, but you need to save the data from real-time, which imo, kinda defeats the purpose. I'm currently leasing...

The 'AHA' that transitioned me from a losing gambler to a small, but consistently, profitable trader: Confidence in my system. As a noob trader, who has been involved to some degree as a gambler in the financial markets in the last 7 years, it took a complete change of mindset to realize...

I've seen reference to smoothed HA (Heiken Ashi) bars during my research, but for the life of me, I can't figure out what the difference is from the regular HA bars. Could anybody shed some light on this issue? Also, the default indicator that comes with NT, is that regular or smoothed...

Thats a shame to hear :( I've heard some good things about NeoTicker's replay feature, but I was hoping NT could be a one-stop shop. Its not so much the cost, but the pain in the ass to learn a whole new setup. Thank god I found out early, otherwise, I would've paid for a lifetime...

Hi, Is it possible to download the tick data from say www.tickdata.com, import it into NT 7, and build historical intra-day volume based charts with it? I'm looking to do some manual bar by bar analysis. Don't need a real market replay - I don't mind hitting the arrow at the bottom of the...

ahh, I'm on 6.5 too, which is probably why I could find the function. Thanks all for the tips!

Is it possible to use Ninjatrader to load say the 5-min chart from a particular day, and have it play back bar by bar either automatically, or with a keypress (i.e. basically simulate the price action on that day). I heard Sierracharts can do something like this, but I'm pretty happy with NT...

Could a TA expert help me out please. I'm looking for an indicator that shows huge percentage moves (in one direction) over the past couple of days on unusual volume. I'm thinking RSI or Stochastics, but I'm not too well versed in how they work, or how they might be useful in identifying what...

I've been here, following and digesting the comments, just didnt have much to contribute since. I did a little bit more study on the quiet periods of the market - 5pts is pretty tough to eke out during low volatility. Perhaps I'm looking at this the wrong way, as some posters have suggested...

I've been involved in some way with the investing world for the past 10 years, and while I've had experience in swing trading (with mixed results), I realized that I'm less keen about the stress of holding overnight positions as I got older! So, here I am thinking about compressing my trading...

Thanks for the replies, the community here is awesome! I'm gonna check out the Yahoo add-in, Excel is just such a fantastic tool, and I love the way I can put data together. Might check out Amibroker too. From what I can tell from some of the threads here, its a pretty cool software. -Nick

Hi all, I'm trying to build a watchlist with fundamental data (Price/Cash , Mkt Cap, EPS, etc stuff you can find in Yahoo Finance) on an Excel spreadsheet. Instead of typing the stuff in 1-by-1, does anyone know of a data source whereby I can use Excel DDE to populate my list? I don't mind...

thanks for the tip! I have an Ameritrade account, so that works even better! Any other suggestions? The software page on ET is woefully outdated ...

Does anyone know of a charting software that can output TWS data? What I mean is instead of linking to the build-in (Java) charts, I would like to be click on a symbol on TWS and have it display on the external charts. My TWS keeps jamming up, and not loading new charts until maybe 1-2...

+5% from prev close

any old timers here remember what happens when the mkt limits up? Does it continue to rally reopen, or sell of? From a quick count, theres only about 6 occurences of the mkt closing >5%, and they're all from the 2000 and 2008 rebounds

Shorting? I don't know .. when someone says they're throwing $1 trillion anywhere, I wouldnt want to stand in their way.

ok, I have a feeling it has nothing to do with trading but WTH is an SLF??

Hi all, I'm using the TWS real-time market scanner, which gets the job done very well. The problem I have is with TWS charts. It takes forever to refresh new charts whenever I select a security (I have 4 linked to the main window) - sometimes as long as a minute before anything appears...
