"trading against the trend is (can be) your friend"
note: the green line is just there to accentuate the trend.
you will never see someone post trades that are against the trend - they always post the big run trades going with the trend. here is another clear example of how being contrary to...

like others have said "never" use "wireless" anything - it takes time and money to figure all this out get to it.
when i manually trade i use a game controller it's 10x faster than a mouse.
so for es i have found the following time sections to be of interest in no particular order:
8:30-9:30 1st hour for momentum trading cause it has great follow thru
7:30-8:30 pre market wild action seems to occur weekly if you can chase it
9:30-1:00 for the occasional trend move - happens about...

if its doesn't make sense, seems far to risky and just feels bad it makes gobs of money.
mortgage your house to gain a bicycle... why does one do that if they think they will lose?
this is a chart of today's session from 1600 to 1600 so i have a sell "red" a buy "green" and another sell "red"
candles? is this based on hope, seminar, book, hunch? stop what your doing and get a edge first.

you know i have tried turning off order confirmation thinking it's the loop between mc and the broker etc. now matter what system or chart style or broker mc can not auto trade - and that is false advertising.
they need to prove it works - but they don't actually trade so how would they know?
as you can see in the attached image i can get the trades where i want them visually.
MC can not get this to the broker is the problem, when you flip it on auto trade it flips out.
this has been going on before there was a MC or TS back to System Writer and Super Charts days.
thanks there are no fixes for this problem and certainly none from multicharts - it's their problem to address or they need to stop false advertising it will auto trade or clarify it will not accurately auto trade.
if you really dig in the mc forum you will see this is swept under the rug...

thanks
i know on thing for sure mc can not auto trade a system with results to match the systems results.
i will challenge anyone to prove differently, i have challenged mc numerous times.
they respond with the usual bullshit over and over like a broken record. i said post a sample system code...
