    Zen Fire data feed in fast market

    You are wrong. I have the most powerful computer you can buy, and NT chokes in heavy volume times with more than a small handful of charts open. You wouldn't know that because you are only running one chart, so you never see these issues. It is a reasonable expectation that a piece of trading...

    Zen Fire data feed in fast market

    I'm going to give them one more shot with NT 7. If they don't solve their performance and stability issues, I'm moving to another broker and platform.

    Zen Fire data feed in fast market

    I know that it will, based on the performance improvements that they are claiming in their log. For one thing, they have dropped Access as a DB solution and gone with SQL Server (why they didn't do this in the first place is beyond me). They have also optimized all their bar drawing routines...

    Zen Fire data feed in fast market

    99% chance it's your CPU. Open Task Manager and check to see if it's anywhere near 100%. If it is, you are definitely getting lag. (Even if it's not, you still might be getting it unless the utilization is below 50%.) The good news is that NT 7 still seems to be on track of end of Sept beta...

    Who is on the other side of these trades?

    Most people have been getting in recently, and I don't think that they are going to be in a profit position for all that much longer. Just because your friend made a profit in one stock, it doesn't mean that the sheeple in general are all prospering in the same way. The people that are doing the...

    Who is on the other side of these trades?

    Ever? You don't remember 1999? It wasn't that long ago. And I doubt that the sheeple are making a killing, from what I'm hearing. Most of my clueless friends and family didn't pick the bottom in March.

    Which real live future trading room I should choose?

    If you are expecting to learn how to be a daytrader quickly so it can help your financial situation, you are in for a massive disappointment. You are going to have to put many thousands of hours of work into this, probably more work than you have ever done in your life, just to be able to have a...

    Which real live future trading room I should choose?

    Agreed. Anyone (and I mean ANYONE) who got creamed in that July rally is a complete joke of a day trader. End of story. If you aren't making a killing on the trending days you don't have a damn clue what you're doing. Take that to the bank. Let me give you some free advice. If you're...

    What to expect from Ninjatrader 7.0 ?

    One chart is generally fine... but multiple charts with indicators, with multiple days of lookback can be a problem under heavy conditions with Zen-Fire. There are threads on these boards regarding this, you can do a search...

    What to expect from Ninjatrader 7.0 ?

    There look to be a number of new features as shown on that page... however the biggest and most significant improvement seems to be in the area of performance, and hopefully, stability. I'd take NT 6.5 just as it is, if it actually worked properly without lagging in heavy market conditions.

    Which real live future trading room I should choose?

    I never signed up for a trading room because I never thought it would be that useful for me... ultimately you're going to have to come up with your own trading strategy that suits you, not something that someone gives you. Having said that, I have heard most of the above people speak in...

    Just 4 The Naysayers

    Now that you mention it, there is one thing that I am a little curious about: you said that your system wins 99% of the time. Yet you haven't made it to live trade #34, which you don't project happening until 5 months from now. How can you claim consistent 99% profitability on your trades when...

    Just 4 The Naysayers

    It was clearly implied that I was asking about the past of your CURRENT system in its final form. I think that was fairly obvious. But then, no matter since you have answered the question. All I did was ask you what the performance of your system was. Why you think that's insulting is beyond...

    Just 4 The Naysayers

    No need to be insulting, I was just trying to get an idea of how good your system actually is. You're the one starting all these threads and initiating the conversation about it. Ok, so then let's exclude all the prior history before the finalized tweak, because that's not your current...

    Just 4 The Naysayers

    Since you're not going to post any actual financial results (even if everything relevant to your account was blacked out), how about you answer some questions just for interest's sake: 1. How long have you been trading this system with live money? 2. How much money did you start with...

    Just 4 The Naysayers

    No, but it obviously matters to you from the way you have started a third thread about this after 2 were already closed down. If it didn't matter to you, we wouldn't be having this conversation. The more evidence you post, the more likely it is that what you are saying is true. Yes it could...

    Just 4 The Naysayers

    Obviously many people on this forum still don't believe you. Presumably, if your system is so wonderful and proven, you must be trading real money with it, correct? I mean, why wouldn't you if it works like you say? So why not just take some account statements showing how much you made over...

    POLL for intraday index traders: How do you deal with slower periods during the day?

    I either trade something else that is moving, or else go away. It is possible to make money during those times, but it's harder, you make less money, it takes longer, and it's more annoying. When the market is completely dead there's no point in trying to trade it too much as the little bit...
