Definitely the product the data is just the feed. When I watch videos of Pros I rarely see other than the TT occasionally Sierra and Jigsaw so thought I’d open this for discussion and see what everyone thinks.

That is the tape my friend

I mean reliability really, which one are you using?

Well I’m not an algo but yes I do use the Price Ladder. Apart from the Volume profile I don’t use any indicators or charts. It was a tough transition but worthwhile.

If Futures is an order based market does it not make sense that a collection of orders make up that market? “The tape exists without charts, charts cannot exist without the tape” Jessie Livermore. I love how we are drifting of the topic but that’s OK it’s all good discussion. The point of the...

What do you mean by interpretations? The Price ladder and in particular the Depth and Sales is the tape which is the market? My post is regarding the software makers in question

After many months learning the ladder and trying many platforms my opinion is that if you are serious about trading and scalping the price ladder you need a serious tool not a toy. TT CQG and even Sierra Charts are good options. Jigsaw and bookmap feel like they can break at any minute. What are...

strategy 1 breaks-even 50% at 1 to 1 so is a waste of time and likely be under with commission charges. I would need to know the hit rate of 2 below 50% can be 10% can be 49%

Thank you all for the contribution I have spent last week looking for the answer to my question and feel that I may have it wrong as some of you have raised. Strategy is key and is broad the setup is within the strategy. You must be able to look at the market and have a strategy i.e direction...

Thank you yc47ib much appreciated I’ll let you know how I get on

Thank you Handle123 I'm definately not trying to get rich or master overnight however I would like to be stepping in the right direction. When I traded FX, I was very much a swing trader however with Futures I just cannot afford to stay in the trade while it plays out. I'm very much a Day Trader...

I agree and actually feel that Risk Managment becomes easier or certainly placing a stop loss because you know where you are wrong. i.e one of the setups I'm focusing on is a break from consolidation so it is easy to throw the SL below the range once the market breaks out. Of course you can add...

See I'm not sure they are and that is where my confusion may lie. I like Fan27's response where you can class the setup as part of an overall strategy that considers Risk Management, time of day and style of trading. So I may agree that a setup is a segment of the the overall picture however New...

I'm a relatively new trader that has switiched from FX to Futures recently. For the last 9 months I have spent my time learning the the business. I have read books, watched videos and took courses. The goal for any new trader is to find that strategy that they can consistently execute with...
