I use ninajtrader and their charting for my trades. I've never had a problem with their charting. The data for the charts comes from my broker. I have E-Signal as a backup charting platform. You can plug E-Signal into ninjatrader which is nice so you can look at equities via Ninjatrader...

Odd my Esignal charts today seem to be pretty batty and haven't been able to get on to trade today. I was just wondering if any other users of Esignal have been having problems also? :confused:

ECBOT back online for me at 12:05 EST

My quotes for the YM went dead at 10:27. ECBOT down again I guess.

2 Weeks ago there was an outage on the CBOT

I was about to post the same thing. Talked to my broker ECBOT is down he said. My quotes and dome are just frozen. That's twice this month I hope this isn't going to be a regular occurance with the ECBOT.

My Esignal is still down 12:52 EST.

Lost me there ??

Thanks for the comments. I'm fine with my setup. 6'5 I'm not. I'm fine though with the way the monitors are mounted and I do understand where you're coming from in regards to the akward monitor positioning. I thought the same at first in regards to comfort when I first setup them up. I...

Thanks Surdo. I'm running a computer I built myself specs are below. I'm looking to upgrade in the future to most likely a dual processor but for now the computer I have gets the job done. Like the saying goes "if it ain't broke don't fix it" What are you currently using in your setup? Also...

My home office at home. I use a laptop on the side also which I use for mainly news email and messaging. I day trade mainly mini futures and also the futures fx markets.

Just curious if there are any mini S&P 400 traders out there. Anybody see that crazy sell off order that hit around 13:30 EST. Just curious if anybody has any info on what that was? I'm thinking fat finger order maybe? Any input would be great thanks.

If he's trading for that reason then he's better off going to Vegas. At least you get comped for your stay and meals. Not to mention the girls there are easy on the eyes. ;)

I don't think successful traders are bored. Every successful trader I have seen has a passion and enthusiasm for trading. It is simply that we are supposed to be enthused about the process and not worried about the money on that particular trade. [/B] When I mentioned boring I was referring...

JMowery1987 Great book. I'd definitely recommend any of Mark Douglas' books Brett Steenbarger and Doug Hirschorn have written some great books also. I think definitely looking inside ourselves and asking why we do things helps a lot. Creating a personal trading journal and going over...

Just a suggestion. How about maybe just sitting down and going over the setup that you're using. Like a check list go down the list and see what has to happen for you to take a trade. i.e. 1. retracement 2. OB or OS Define your setup and then back test it. See how it does over...

Check out Jack Schwager's book Market Wizards.

Check out the websites: http://www.futuresknowledge.com/ http://www.lind-waldock.com/edu/ www.futuresource.com There should be some decent information there to get you started. I'm not sure if any of the info overlaps. Most likely yes but either way some good links to get your...

Thanks for sharing the link Wallace much appreciated. Good Trading Qyu

Just curious how many setups in particular are you using? I haven't really combed across your entire journal but thought I could list a few suggestions: Focusing on just one setup If you're using too many of them? Working on just one till you're consistently profitable using it...
