Interesting. Care to share a screenshot? H.

I really don't understand this thread. People are taking time out of their day to write that day trading cannot be done? Let me see... ES overnight low 2883.50, rth high 2917.75, which gives me a range of 34 points. So I am to believe that there is no opportunity to take out 5, maybe 10 pts...

There are plenty of edges. Look at ES and CL today, there's plenty to keep a day trader occupied all day. They can automate, arb and spread all they want, there will always be plenty of work for a capable directional trader within the intraday timeframe. H.

I trade the ES. Here is what I saw: We couldn't go lower, so we went higher. You might think I am trying to trip you up here, but I'm not. H.

If you want to go the budget route, Reuters has the Xenith platform which is the retail version of Eikon. They offer it through Metastock. H.

I agree, but look at it from the point of 'markets carry more opportunity' than a Brownian motion distribution would imply. H.

I disagree. Since the beginning of December it has been pretty clear. There is also a reason for it. It will attract some of the same players - think 'storage of value'. Got to love differing opinions. H.

It is to alert me to new lows in CL. For new highs there is a different sound. I also have different sounds for equities, bonds and currencies. So while I am trading in and out I know what the broader market is doing just by listening. On a day like today I need more than just visual inputs to...

He he, that's what makes a market. Thanks. H.

TT's X_Trader is the gold standard. For my trading style I cannot do without it. I am purely a directional scalper. There are lots of features for spread traders and autotrading, but I am watching it tick by tick and reading the tape. The MD with its T&S gives a good view of the action, but...

Is it worth it? It depends on the passion you have for it. How hard are you willing to work at it? Picture this for single-minded focus: The lion mother protecting her two cubs from being snatched by the hyenas. She is fighting against the overwhelming force of a pack of 'em, but she knows...

He did an outstanding job squawking the selloff seven years ago. H.

This is a series of short videos in a logical order for the absolute beginner. The style is quite unique, I think it is well produced. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLi01XoE8jYohWFPpC17Z-wWhPOSuh8Er- H.

Since you have started a journal: What do the charts say? H.

Here is the ES from 2003, had to dig deep into my hard drive to find it. H.

That's what I'm seeing too. H.

If I could give an advice to my eager self 18 years ago I would say: "This is a tough game, you need to start somewhere. Focus on losing the right way. Going for consistent green in the beginning you can forget, it will take time before you understand how the market really works. No one who...

What happens every 3 months in this futures contract? How does that show up in the eod chart? Good luck. H.

Thanks for the heads up, hadn't heard about them. H.
