Kserra- "the thing" with the Mov. Avgs. you are noticing. Keep on it. You are on the right track. However, there are other market dynamics at play here that you won't understand looking through the eyes of Moving Averages. there is a fella on Tradestation World, that is on his way to...

Hi Walter- I used to trade the QQQ a while back as well. I tried working my own small equity account while transacting trades for the clients in the futures with a similar system to the one I'm running now. Couldn't quite get it to a point of profitability that I was happy with. (aka.. I...

Db- yeah, I don't want to get involved either. Sounds like it has been a topic on this board. However, I think we are in agreement, that is to say that all mechanics are systems, but not all "systems" are mechanics. I consider what I'm trading as more of a toolkit that resembles a set...

Yes and No. Your point is valid and I struggle with this on a daily basis, especially given the tool set I have to work with. Since throughout the day you can have conflicting signals, literally 1 Tick Bar apart, the trader must be able to recognize the "type" of market he/she is in. Unless...

I wanted to share some key points that hit so close to what it is that I've experienced in system trading this past year. I own maybe 4-5 books on daytrading, most in my opinion are complete shit and a waste of my time to even expend energy to pick up. However, I was recently given a...

Your last line showed "agreement" in price action, not divergence as the previous two did. -momo

after trading the NQ e-mini futures contracts daily for over a year now, I can tell you IMHO, that this market is a dying market and has become on a week-to-week, month-to-month and year to date- basis, a significantly ever increasingly difficult market to extract consistent intraday profits...

On the TradeStation platform, the symbol for EURO FX is @EC , for the continous contract. -momo

Nah..... never happens, they wouldn't be trying to rip us off, would they? LOL! http://www.securitiesfraudfyi.com/knight_trading_group.html This is just one tiny sliver of an example of some of the crap they pull on a daily basis. KITE is one of the worst. Sad thing is that it is cheaper...

If you are daytrading the NQ, then watch the EURO Currency Futures. Symbol @EC on TradeStation. The two work as Divergent pairs to one another. Trading @EC from 5:00am until 6:30am PST is prime, its all over by 11:00am PST in the EURO, then you could consider the afternoon session in...

Grob- Thanks for taking the time to form a reply. Although, I didn't expect you to attempt to provide some sort of documentation on the subject, certainly not an attempt at proof. It only weakens your credibility from my perspective, I respect your diligence nonetheless. Whatever the...

Grob- Before I call bullshit on you. I would like ask for a watered down, version on this if you please. I read your post once, then went back and read it a few more times, just to make sure. Your operational definitions on each of your nifty catch-phrases, differs from what would be...

Very sad experiences and pretty pathetic view on trading and its merits. If you were going for the pity play, you almost earned it...... Anything great in life is worth working hard for, and very little can ever be claimed to be "non-achievable" Save trying to fly without wings, you...

EURO FX on TS it is @EC seems to be a nice mover from 5:00am-11:00am PST. So far I've had nice results. -momo

blb078- If you are just starting out. Stay on paper. Don't bother with the YM. Although, its smaller contract tick size would beg you to trade it as an entry level mini-futures contract it is anything but feasible for a beginner. The YM is simply too volatile at this time. It is too thinly...

7.1 build 1117 Try switching to the closest server farm. You only have two to choose from FL and Texas. -momo

Sounds similar to a deal that I was offered at Brokerage America a while back for the Nasdaq Institutional Order desk. Sounds like it could be the right move. Don't know your circumstances. Definitely would offer some income security if the customers keep knocking on the door. However, be...

I have 3 Tradestation accounts. One is running on cable modem, the other on DSL and one off the T1 in another location. No problems today. Other than Market Depth for the e-minis not working today. Oh, and INCA ecn having problems, no freezing up over here. -momo

LOL!
