I know i'm sounding redundant but, a good starter setup?

I've been looking through the topics and I'm still rather confused. could I get some suggestions on the best way to recieve these things in a simple setup:

Real time futures data
real time indicators
simple charting info

I downloaded quotetracker and and getting a 7 day trail at IQfeed. Will this do the trick or do I need more software?

Im not sure how to find indicators? do they come with software or data feeds or are they ordered seperately?
 
Yes, this is a good starter setup. Technical indicators will normally come with the charting software. The only thing you would be missing is a broker to do trades.

Or, may be... that you should know how to trade.

Oh, one more little thing... that you should have a lot of money that you can afford to loss.
 
If you want to investigate indicators and all kinds of tools Ensign has to be given a good look at. It comes with dozens of templates that would take you forever to develop (the standard set up for most indicators often isn't very good).

You can get a 1 week free trial but it needs a datafeed like IB, DTN or eSignal.

Slightly sarcastic perhaps, but nevertheless, very true.
 
I dont plan on trading just yet. I wanna do a little observation first. Doing research on a method I may want to try. Im not into back testing either. All I want right now is data feeds, charts to analyze the data and indicators. Once I feel secure about my methods I will begin to trade.

As far as my losses go this is a zero sum game. My losses mean more for some of u. so be happy if i lose money.
