I have been trading Stock, Options, FOREX and Futures since last 10+ years, but not successful. I would to learn some new trading strategies from this forum and save losing trades/money.
hello to all I am new to the forum. I have been trading futures off and on (mostly off) for the past 9 years on a TOS platform. I am reentering the fray after a hiatus and doing some research on the latest tools, trends and processes.
Hello everyone. I'm new to futures but hope to gain a mass amount of knowledge from all of you. I live near Chicago IL (not by choice). My prime objective is to learn more in anything I do, and with blowing up one account I realize I have more to learn.

Greetings everyone,
I'm a practicing engineer who can't seem to shake the numerical fascination I get from watching the markets. I've been researching trading methodology for the past 10 years and am finally almost to the point where I feel I have reached conviction regarding the market and methodology I wish to pursue along with the fundamentals. I plan on focusing on the mini futures index contracts initially and scaling out from there. My focus will be on creation of pattern recognition algorithms using genetic programming. Tried that and have any success, I'd love to hear about it. Tried it and found such an approach a complete waste of time, I'd especially like to hear about that. I realize 10 years is an atypically long research period, but I am in this to make money and not piss it away. I don't use guess and check regarding whether an aircraft is statistically safe to carry passengers, and my approach with trading will be just as rigorous. Looking forward to working and learning with you all! I appreciate this community and look forward to being a contributing member as soon as I am able. Just got to wait a few more months for the wife to acquiesce to me getting a workstation to begin exploring the probability space.
Been heavily focussed on trading for the last three years. Technical background meant I thought I could master it if I worked hard enough. Finally come to realise (what is well known to most) that the problem with my trading progress is me or to be more precise my lack of emotional and other forms of discipline (when it comes to applying process that is).
Tried numerous tools: MT4, Amibroker, Ninja 7 and now 8 with a spell doing Python and Keras for machine learning. Day-to-day on NT8, BetterRenko and own indicators for assistance or confusion.
Early influence from Barry Taylor led me to focus on what I refer to as 'Professional' orders and analysis of Cumulative Delta in multiple bar sizes (read time-frames). More about these in other threads.
Literally 1000s of hours and 1000s of lines of code still no consistency. The path to improvement is undoubtedly journaling and being accountable to myself and others. So as part of the journey I'm going to publish what I have for others to use or discard as they see fit and start the journal!
Hi. I've been trading for about 1.5 years and have kept my account about even. I need to start making a reasonable profit so I can retire and use this as an income account.
I'm using TradeStation and have purchased a few indicators from there store. Used it for a few months and then discontinued them (Usually way too much information that I can't make sense out of), thinking I can do better.
Always looking for a better way.
