MarketMonk, I currently use NinjaTrader....which has the ACV. The Matrix is lacking in the ACV....which I use for my Scalping. When I Enter a trade with a Market Order....I expect to get filled....almost instantly....and that just didn't happen for me when I tried the Matrix. Scalping...

dupaski76, I have used Tradestation for many years. In the past....I used TS for trading equities....but stopped using it....when I switched to Futures only. I have programmed many indicators in TS....and I do....for the most part....like their charts. There are some things that I cannot...

This is a ER2....50 tick chart....on Friday....with some explanations. The Crossing of Trendlines are important to me....although I don't draw them on the chart....this is just to show where they would be. The Range Box is Very Important in my trading. I could go into more detail on this...

Surdo, I had problems also....but just after I finished trading for the day. To change Servers....either close TS and open again or do the following on you Pull Down menu. Fill Preferences TradeStation Network Type in the Server you want from the list....sometimes that works...

DerferMark, Many years ago....I had the problem of overtrading. I would often be up $500....$1,000 or much more....within the first hour or so of trading....then give it all back....or even worse....end up Negative for the day. It is bad enough to start out Negative at the beginning of the...

ACM Trader, Great comments. For me....manipulation of the market....is a positive thing. Rather than getting caught up in who or what is manipulating the market....a trader has to learn how to take advantage of what is going on. Do I think the markets are manipulated....yes....but that...

I finally upgraded to IE 7....went back to a previous version....didn't like it. VSTscalper

4XIS4U, I think your chart looks great and should work great....I was just playing....experimenting. As I said....whatever works best for you....that is what you should do. I have my own set-up....simple....clean....and I think yours is much the same. I am always...

4XIS4U, Looks great to me....whatever works best for you....is what you should stick with. I decided to play with this a little....try hiding the Line and the Parabolic Sar....from the looks of it....you may be able to use the Ribbon....by itself....similar to this chart. VSTscalper

mtwokay, While the NQ did look great today....personally....I would not switch from the ER2 to the NQ. Below you will see my comparison....I think I got the Highs and Lows correctly. When comparing Dollar movement....the ER2 far surpasses the other major e-mini's....just about everyday...

I am a Scalper....for the most part. The following chart is to show how I Scalp....it doesn't matter ES....ER....YM....NQ. Mostly....I trade the ER....but sometimes the other contracts as well. Just about always trade 4 contracts....2 ticks....Market order to Enter....usually Limit to...

taowave, If you look back....page 167....I think....I show a couple of charts....with and without Trendlines. You will see....I do something I call....Walking the Trendline. Overall....Price Patterns....and....some....Candle patterns are important....but not all. Don't have much time...

Nice to see the tread back on topic. This is how I see GMXR....on a 15 minute chart. While I don't trade equities anymore....just Futures....this is how I would trade GMXR. A 15 minute chart would be an eternity for me....since I am really a Scalper....on the Futures. But....the methods...

Here is a picture of my programming attempt....to Replace the drawing of Trendlines. This is still a work in progress....but....so far....it is working very well....just need some more tweaking of the code. Kind of a combination of a ZigZag and Trendline....in Real Time. This shows the...

itinker, I used to live on Cougar Mountain....Issaquah....short distance from Newcastle. Currently living in the Kirkland area. I know several traders in the area. Hard to get traders together on a regular basis. I have a couple of trader friends....we meet at Starbucks quite often....but...

This thread started out with the question....Do Trendlines Work....not whether they have....Predictive Powers. So....for me....I would say....yes....Trendlines do work....and they are a Major part of my trading. Every trader is different....Trendlines may work for some....may not work for...

I had a problem with my wirless router....kept dropping connections. Called Comcast....the tech came....seen that I had the Router....sitting on top of my computer. Without checking anything....he moved the Router....off the computer....about a foot away. I have never had another problem. It...

hardyards, Are you asking a question?....or just making a statement. I use a 610 Tick chart for Trending....and most of the time....a 20 Tick chart for Scalping....on the ER or ES. I adjust the Scalping chart....depending on how fast the market is moving....or when Price goes into a...

I use NinjaTrader....with the Zen Fire data feed. I have been using J-Trader from Patsystems for years....but NT is better at managing trades. The main reason I started using NT....is for the ACV (accumulated volume). J-Trader has something similar....and that is where I learned how to use...
