I have weekly fixed "bracket" order stacks that I readjust at the end of each Friday - this way I have my new increased position size "brackets" stack for the next week. I incrementally grow my position size once a week on Friday, so I have the brackets stack always set for a 1% or better...

I had a great discussion with Paul at vCap yesterday and he showed me a demonstration of the NinjaTrader platform with TT and Zen-fire feed - everything looked really good for what I am doing. If anyone wants to talk to Paul just send me a pm and I will give you his cell# plus some other...

would that have been a 17 or 19 lot short for three points? :D

Yes they are the same - you are correct.

Excellent - thank you for the information! I have found some real good info in my backtesting so far - good price reaction plays with much more than enough follow through to make my hits.

I used to yell and scream at my computer everyday when trading futures - then that one day happened...... IT YELLED BACK! :eek: I have never yelled at my computer again. :)

Chi - what products are you trading?

I will talk to vCap today to check out their NinjaTrader set up with Zen-fire.

they are getting a new exhibit ready for my platform - Trademaven - LOL! :D I think I am going back to Xtrader myself - researching all my options right now.

I thought that trade platform could only be viewed at the Smithsonian - :)

Yes - I would like to know if anyone here has had any good dealings with this set-up also.

Trademaven merged with eLocal -- this is where things really started to go down hill faster for TM.

Today was another quickie - 1.1% by 09:33 est from the long side account. I hope we keep this type of trade action at the open all summer - makes my trade set up hit the profit target quick.

So far I am backtesting the following times for the EC; 09:30 est 18:00 est (this time was advice from someone?) 03:00 est For the news release times I use a slightly different method - backtesting that set up also.

What kind of trading are you doing? Thanks

Unfortunately, I know a trader that is fighting with PFG/JR Futures over a stop-limit order problem while using TM from the last fed meeting day - so far zero resolution of the problem for him. I also had the same problem on the same day with a different broker and TM, but I was able to get...

I am going to do some backtesting for one of my strategies with the EC and I have a question for those who trade the Euro futures. What are some good price "reaction" times for the EC - like the open for the ES/YM/NQ at 09:30 est, or the open for the ZB at 08:20 est. I am sure the 03:00 est...

I have had a few log in problems the last few days - much better than problems I had a couple of weeks ago. I just do not have confidence in the whole program anymore and I have three separate systems that I have to babysit when there are tech problems - that is no fun. :( I really like...

That Dell 20" is the new super ego edition - at least you could tell your friends that you roll on 20's! :D

And Jeremy is no longer in the day to day activities for TM. I have had a rough time with Trademaven also during this period, so I am moving on sorry to say.
