Dude, Just do not say anything more. Your words make some of idiots on this board to actually sound wise. This is my last response to you unless you will post in relation to the topic of this thread. Guys, Let's stop responding to Ssss, unless he actually will post about scalping...

I missed the point where all this relates to the topic of this thread. It looks like you are jumping all over the place. Stay with the subject and do not make a fool out of yourslef with quotes of people that most people find rediculous. I assume that by quoting Diogen you like his...

You took the words out of my mouth. His post was rediculous. One of the best things that ever happenned to me was my daughter. Last time I checked, I did not recall feeling like a slave because of my family.

Very interesting stuff, let's see how it plays out. Eurex us failed even though they had big name to back them.

Hi Nissane, Your explanation helped a lot to understand your chart. Great job! Regards, redduke

Hi Nissane, Nice chart. The second pane where you have red and blue lines, I am not sure what you display there. Bid/Ask relationship will change many times during 100 ticks bar, which particular moment during the bar you display there? Or is it an average that was captured during 100 ticks...

There is no easy way to do it. I was told that sinceninja is .net application soemone who knows it really well can do anything, but it is not easy to do this link. Ninja has 3 experts listed on their website who do custom development, you can try them, but search the forum first. It is really...

Hi Cd23, Great post. I totally agree about flashing light as a signal, well may be not the light but some signal. I personally had to split it into 2. One I developed in ninja trader (I use it for charting) which analyzes price behavior and another one in excel that anayzes DOM and is fed...

Wow, holding it through 4 day weekend. You have guts, that's for sure. Good Luck. Happy Holidays!

Ssss, Just curious what aspects of under developments on rts are being exploited, if it is not proprietory of course. In order to work for simmons, you need at least a PhD.

This is very true. The games played on Dom are legion, but there is a way to see through them. Not sure if it is possible on bund but definitely on DAX. I have posted a link earlier in the thread of how I do it. Price action is the most important variable of course, but Dom helped me hugely...

If you read Martin's own book "Pit Bull", it is all there. He was not a scalper.

Hi Terry Hesticles, While your post contains a lot of info, there is really not much that can be ralated to scalping aside from risk/reward and fequency of trades. It sounds like some educational material. Trust me in real live scalpers do not use 1 min charts, it is ancient history for them...

Hi Ssss, Why do you constantly use Martin Shwartz as example in your posts? Yes, he did start as a floor member of Amex in 1979, however by mid 80s, he was trading S&P futures from New York over the phone, and his style was not scalping. redduke

It opens at 2 am EST. But first hour usually has not much action since cash opens 1 hour later. I start trading it at 3:01 or 3:02am.

Hi Maxsit, 1) It varies, depending on current day volume, but it is around 15-20, sometimes less or more. 2) I only trade first 2-3 hours after dax opens (1 st before cash opens not including). US morning session provides great opportunities since markets overlap. 3) I do not know any...

Ninja Trader and X-Trader for futures.

Exactly my point. Faster more expensive feeds will not provide better execution. But I think we both agree that aiming for few ticks is extremly difficult to do on retail level, but if trade horizon is increased a bit, high frequency inter day trading totally doable.

Ssss, Please define scalping. In my book scalping is going for 1-3 ticks, and it originally comes from pits where insiders where exploiting bid/ask differences. It would not matter what your speed or hardware is if you try to scalp dax for 1-2 ticks, unless you have algo trading you would...

6.5 beta 4 is alreay stable version. You can download it from their support forum, there is a section devoted to it. I currently use it for live charting, but would not use it for live trading until it is offcially released.
