http://img393.imageshack.us/img393/1050/snapshot223bz.png After 2 PM are my trades that I made during a live simulation, because I left school early. Before 2PM was a tick replay, and I had been exposed to that data before I replayed the data afterwards. But those trades are very good...

And to add on to that... check a daily view of a chart to get really solid idea support and resistance levels. The more they are tested, and the longer that support and resistance level has been around, the stronger it will be, just as Volente said.

Exactly. I made it a lot harder than it was as well. But now I understand so much more than I have ever imagined. So take advantage of all the advice given these past couple of pages and put it to good use... otherwise you could be on the losing end and someone that did do this...

Here is one of my simulated trading days. http://img296.imageshack.us/img296/3696/snapshot196mz.png I drew arrows to where I took action. TP = Take Profit TP 1/2 = Took half positions to let the others ride Long = Bought Long Short = Sold Short I made more trades than I wanted to...

Thanks... my mentor has really drilled into me, that trading is actually really easy. It's the mental part of it that every screws up on. I will admit, the chances of me being a failure would be a whole lot greater if I wasn't fortunate to have someone help me. So that is why i'm trying...

Support and Resistance is mostly going to have a high probability of holding. That is why they call it support *If you stand on a wooden bridge... majority of the time it will hold you, but if too many want to get on at once, it'll break*. Vice versa for resistance. Until support or...

Oh yes, I currently do the 2 week trial with TradeMaven at proactivefutures. My problem is I don't know how I can do this with CQG Trader. I guess CQG Trader only allows you to trade ES in demo mode by default.

Yeah, eSignal is pricey. But I think it will be worth it once I get set-up. *If you tell eSignal you have an account at FXCM or Alaron trading, they will give you 50 dollars off the first 2 months* There are probably more, but that is what I got. CQG doesn't seem bad at all. But I can't...

Was not aware. But thanks. I'm definately going to have to consider TradeMaven. With Greenstreet, they offer CQG for free, and TradeMaven for $50 a month. So, i'll definately look into it once I get set-up.

Awesome! Thanks for that. I'll try playing around with once I can.

Agree 100%

I appreciate the good compliments. It is not needed though. This is all publically available. I am just trying to help others realize that it can be simple, but a lot of people seem to make it harder than it really is, believe it or not. And I used to be one of those. I told my mentor...

Heh... you and me both... I do as well like to have the chart full screen. I need another monitor. Maybe 3. One for the trading application, one for my chart, and one form my mentors screen so I can observe his trading. That is my dream set-up. Still have to do well with what I...

Yeah, I have to move my stops mechanically as well. I can't figure out how to do it automated. It would be nice if I got enough money to do more long term trades while I'm at school and hold positions overnight, because I'm in school in the morning, if you know what I mean. I just can't...

BTW, Volente, have you been able to use trailing stops in TradeMaven? I can't figure out how to get those to work.

I'm more of a hyrbid of descretional trader and system trader. I am working on rules for myself, but don't want to set too many rules that I feel limited. I do not scalp... simply because I have not had the opprotunity to try scalping. Maybe in the future, but for right now, especially with...

I hope to go a long way... I'm very fortunate and very greatful to be in the position I am. I don't have much money but understand the markets very well. Again, I hope everyone that is new to trading and really deserves and puts in the effor to learn can experience trading along side a great...

I actually enjoy using TradeMaven... I will either use that or CQG as my trading platform, but I like TradeMavens ability to resize windows and such. The charts are okay, but I enjoy eSignal's. My mentor usually stressed to have tight stops to minimize getting screwed on a breakout or...

My mentor found me. I got a message from him on MSN Messenger, and he has since been one of the greatest helps to me with trading and I couldn't ask for anything more. About the increments in price. Yeah my mentor explained that too me as well just recently. It make sense. People like...

http://img241.imageshack.us/img241/6193/snapshot75xd.png Not the YM this time, but just to show you that support and resistance is important on all vehicles of trading, Forex... Equities, it's all the same. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ BTW, Volente, if you feel I'm kinda taking away...
