    I have stopped trading futures

    Good or bad, being an idiot is not against the rules, why can't you simply ignore people you don't like instead of feeling obligated to respond to every single post they make? Don't you have better things to do? [b] There is not enough time in the day to edit every single post nor is...

    I have stopped trading futures

    Bingo! Move to the front of the class. There is no rule against objecting. The rule is against flaming each other because it turns into a shouting match that never ends. If you want to disagree politely then fine by me, its your time to waste. What I am suggesting is to simply ignore...

    I have stopped trading futures

    Is there an echo in here? Next time I will just delete the thread...it takes too much time to babysit.

    I have stopped trading futures

    Alright, lets try this again. If you have a problem with each other, take it to the playground, otherwise, mind your own business or just don't read threads by people you don't care for. Liberal use of the ignore function is highly recommended.

    charting software

    The best free charting I have seen is Quotetracker. Just google or search ET, there are plenty of threads about them.

    Metatrader datafeed and Tradestation 2000i

    Yes, I use Hypertrader as well. It takes a bit of setup but once its up and running the only hassle is changing the MT password every 30 days or so.

    Saki's Forex Reversal Journal

    Thanks Saki, fancy excel work. I'll play around with it, but I can see why no one has ever tested this before.

    Saki's Forex Reversal Journal

    Before I can test anything I have to get these numbers with some consitency. Just since the time I posted my previous chart, the MM numbers have shifted. In that chart I have the 1/8 line at 1.7975, right next to S1. Now that the market has moved lower, the 1.7975 level is no longer given an...

    Saki's Forex Reversal Journal

    Hey Saki, Looking at the GBPUSD this morning I had the 1/8 line and the S1 together but they didn't hold. Curious if you have the same numbers now (I have pivots set to 7 in Alpari).

    Saki's Forex Reversal Journal

    It would seem that the 2am CT bar (0130 in TS) is what MT is using to get those numbers. I am able to get the same pivot as you (1.8115) but our S1 is still different. I get 1.8047 vs your 1.8033. I worked backwards through the formula for S1 (2*Pivot - Yesterday_High) and I get a high value...

    Saki's Forex Reversal Journal

    Saki, Before I can try to compare previous days I need to make sure we are working off the same numbers. Since you had to remove your charts I don't have the pivot numbers that you used for the past couple of days. Here is a pic of my numbers for Thursday and Friday in the GBPUSD. The...

    Saki's Forex Reversal Journal

    Thanks Saki that makes sense. I have seen people trade off of S/R successfully without using much else, so it makes sense to me that if you have multiple S/R numbers lining up your odds of it holding would increase. I have never looked closely at Murrey Math because of how it was marketed...

    Saki's Forex Reversal Journal

    Saki, do you adjust your target/stop once the new pivots are drawn if you are still in a position at that time, or do you continue to use the same levels until the trade is completed? Nice trade yesterday btw. As for the pivot indicator, which one are you using? I have several from the MT...

    Is Harris Sharpening His Knife???

    I don't know what you did in software of course, but I am assuming it wasn't something that allowed you to collect a dime for every contract traded. If that was the case you would have been foolish to quit that and start trading. Trading is difficult and the constant search for a new edge...

    Need help to code

    scrtrade, I am not the most efficient coder, so this can probably be written more concisely, but try this. It is written for TS 2000i, so if you are using TS8 you may need to modify it a bit. Also, I used a simple %R signal for the trigger, you will need to replace it with your indicator...

    Some Things I Learned About Automated Trading Systems From Writing a Poker Bot

    Thanks for the reply to my questions. What I was refering to was how no matter what your bot does (in poker or in trading) with regards to playing the odds of a hand/trade, the wrench in the machine is how others play those odds. Arguably in poker there is more certainty in that there are a...
