Thank you so so much for everything you have offered. I genuinely feel honored to have had the opportunity to learn from you. All the best

Hi, Just thought Id make a quick post offering my services - I have been reading the TT forum back to front and finally read my way through this thread. Separate to this thread I have programmed this strategy in NinjaTrader (using C#). Functionally all the components are working and by the...

A couple of details regarding movement of price: If there are orders at a given bid/ask then Market Makers must trade at least 100 shares/1 contract at that price before moving to the next level. Generally speaking, Market Makers can only move bid/ask by 1 ticksize at a time (i.e. 1c) -...

Hi, I also use IB and would be interested in this as well. The infinity futures website manages to literally contain no information on their service! My view at the moment though is that IB has cheaper commissions and offers access to more markets - however, if any of you are making enough to...

Yes, thanks very much grey1. So much fantastic information here, now just need a way to absorb it all into my brain!

I know, its crazy. Yesterday I ran a calculation for average bar height (taking an average over 20 bars) and at its highest it hit 35 ticks. This shows that even with generous stops you are probably going to hit your target/stop loss within 1 bar - you might as well just toss a coin!

Grey1, Im sure you didnt want this to turn into a 'request access to TechnicalTrader' thread, but having read this there is no way I could bite my tongue. As I pointed out in another thread I am a big fan of your posts and have taken the time to read through a great number of them, (and would...

As a big fan of Grey1's posts I would have to say I would relish the opportunity to be involved with something like this. I can completely understand the concern - it only takes 1 person to ruin a good thing, but I would just hope that anyone looking to take part would a) takes the time to read...

Hi, Interactive Brokers automatically provide the data feed for US Futures (incluing YM) when you sign up so this should be ok. You may need to change your trading permissions though to enable trading of US Futures. You can do this in the account management screen under trading access.

If you find this is happening it probably means the stakes are higher than you are comfortable with - I started trading with stakes that were far too high and often did exactly what you described. By reducing them to the point were I didnt really mind if my stop loss got hit I found I started to...

Hi Dave, Just to confirm - the equivilant product on IG is 'Wall Street Daily Future (Dec)'. And regarding your comment about the FTSE - if you open a position at £2 p/point you can just close half of it (or less) at anytime. This is a great way of using Bashir's money management techniques...

Hi, So I'm a member of both the free chat and the live room and can offer my view on a few of these points So whilst they don’t always specify exact entries they do always announce when they are getting into and out of trades in real-time. Can’t say they are 100% sharp with this just yet as...

Or how about ^VXD , this is the volatility index just for the Dow Jones http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=^VXD

And recently they've been following the DOW's lead so you get a bit of a heads up as to what direction they might take.

Is anyone in this trade right now - nearly perfect no? edit - attached screenshot
