Good morning. Is Forex data feed EOD data feed as well like Kinetic? Does one need a Ninjatrader license to use / try out the forex data feed? Thank you for your help.

I hear you and feel your pain. Many of the long term customers of tc2000 are feeling this pain and as the bugs are getting zero attention & its going to be difficult for worden to retain them unless they act fast. There are other good competing solutions that are coming up. As many long term...

Agree with RN & ND. One can use 1 min to scalp especially if they have a read from a 5 mins chart or so. Its needs lot of focus & drains your energy super fast. More importantly such small timeframes you are very prone to lot of chops as well as lot of fakes that you need to withstand. Since...

You will see lot of small winners that will make you happy and one giant loser will kill you. Thats tastytrade way of doing it. You need 90% winners to have positive expectancy (does not take in to account the rollover process which reduces the losses little bit). So do your own research before...

I use past price action to predict where someone can get hurt the most & react if that happens. Note that nothing works 100%

Think about a signal that you want to go long or short. Consider how many get killed if that fails. That's an edge. Don't expect it to work 100%.

Its a good place to learn about options but I am not sure if it has any edge. You will feel good about writing as you get good number of small winners. Its something like this. I am using an example where we use 5 strikes wide with POP (probability of profit) at 70%, Max profit $69 & Max...

TC2000 is generally good but it does have a fair share of bugs that messes up your scans. Just be cautious of those. http://www.elitetrader.com/et/index.php?threads/my-experiences-with-tc2000.291061/

Another example of how tc2000 bars change old bars. See this screenshot. http://bit.do/8xqT Notice how the bars changed. Where did the hammer go? Hammer got replaced by a Doji :-) Its always challenging to trust a platform when such things happen consistently. This "Dog ate my bars" Magic...

Thank you Xandman for your comment. I am not sure why its useful to open an account with NT (middleman) when you can directly open one with FXCM. I like NT but the lack of mobile app or web based interface is a downside especially if you want to check or modify something when you are not...

Anyone with good experience with Ninjatrader brokerage?

Though tc2000 has good scanning capabilities, their OHLC data are incorrect because of incorrect closing times. Because of this it plots fake candlestick patterns that are incorrect. Which means the scans you do based on those values would also be incorrect because of the inherent bugs in their...

Traddxxx0001 Thank you for the note. Agree their charts have quite a number of bugs especially intraday timeframes. Their scanning is good but if the data is buggy you get obviously buggy results. I do have other platforms as well to double check their results. I am looking to downgrade from...

Two other incorrect charts plotted by tc2000..... Here is the one hour incorrect chart from tc2000 showing gap fill in eurusd which never happened. https://www.dropbox.com/s/ntnyzcjw5c24c7r/gapfill.png?dl=0 This is the fake hammer plotted in 30 mins chart @ open which never happened...

Another issue you will find in tc2000 forex is fake bars / fake candlestick patterns in 2 hour and 4 hour forex charts. Sunday Forex opens @ 5 PM EST. A normal person would expect 1st & 2nd TWO HOUR bar to close @ 7 PM EST and 9 PM EST respectively. Instead what you will see is the 2 hour bar...

Here is an example of one of many problems tc2000 has with bar closes / open. EURUSD gapped down hard close to 160 pips. tc2000 does not show any gap in any currency. https://www.dropbox.com/s/a37clmtlaecyolr/no gap.png?dl=0 This is how a correct chart should show...

Good evening. As summer is approaching, expecting rangy action in indices. So looking for day trading stocks on days indices are ranging. I am looking for any experiences from stock day traders on stocks that are technical and react well to price action intraday. Any recommendations on stocks...

Traderxxx001: Thank you for your comments. Unfortunately, you are absolutely right. That is the challenge we have. I still use them as they do have set of good features I really like inspite of the crippling bugs but been concerned about the progress / lack of innovations. After 9 months...

Doing good ND. Hope all is well with you. Lets catch up one of these days in PM.

Here is the thread I have posted my experiences with tc2000 as promised. Sorry it took sometime. http://www.elitetrader.com/et/index.php?threads/my-experiences-with-tc2000.291061/
