Hello All,
I am interested in pursuing Jack's Future trading method (using 5 minute ES) as outlined in Spyder's Futures and Iterative Refinment journals.
I have begun reading over the journals, and it seems my first step is to begin monitoring the ES. My current broker does not have futures information, so I will be starting from scratch here.
I would like some suggestions on brokers, and software for trading using the method. Here is what I am thinking I would like:
Good charting platform that allows me to annotate as outlined in the journals.
Ability to play back the day (or previous days?) via simulation, as I have a fulltime job, and wont be able to monitor the full market day real time. Ideally I would like to be able to run a full day back during the night after I get home from work. Also, stepping up the playback speed might be nice as well, although I don't know if that is recommended.
Abillity to view historical 5m charts of ES so that I can go back and annotate them as well. I have alot of work to do, and being able to annotate historical static charts would help I think.
I won't be trading this method for some time, so it would be nice to incur minimal fees while I am not trading.
Thank you for your suggestions.
