Just thought I would say hi.

I'm about to begin trading for the first time (with a little help EOTpro's indicators). To be quite blunt, I can't stand working and I really hope this works out because I'd love to be able to "work" from home.

I'm a total n00b, but I'll do my best to contribute to this forum wherever and whenever I can. See you inside.

Mike,
Thanks for setting up this forum.
I'm just retired & haven't programmed in 20yrs so I'm new to forums, OO/C#/Visual Studio and NinjaTrader and FOREX. But started working on an Automated Strategy in Easy Language(TradeStation) but TS had data connectivity issue with FX so I moved to NT in Oct. I'm basically trying to scalp in Forex. I haven't gone Live yet due to EL to C# differences. I've designed a Money Management/Lot Sizer as part of the Pyramiding logic but I'm having issues with Forex due to the differences in handling the "Lot Size" in the Backtesting engine & Live trading engine.
So I'm hoping to get some good pointers in this forum in both NT programming techniques and in developing/running automated trading strategies.

Hi all,

I'm still relatively new to futures (3 months on simulation) and am about to go live soon. I typically trade ES, although occasionally try and scalp CL or 6E.

Glad to be apart of it and hope I can contribute once I find my feet. Cheers.

Hey everyone,

Happened across this community looking for historical ES data and cannot believe my fortune for finding this place! I have been studying trading off of volume for some time now (have been an active trader for a few years) and I have not come across a better community discussion on the subject.

Hoping to be able to add to the already rich environment. Happy trading everyone and for the US folks... have a great thanksgiving this week!

Hi, Friends:

Traded the last 7 years beginning with FX then moved to futures the last 1.5 years. Futures have a lower tax rate than FX trading. Seven years ago I began I blew my first 5K making all the newbie mistakes associated with hubris. Then I quit trading for a few months until I began reading blogs and print literature to get my head around the "game."

I enjoy trading and like most, have spent countless hours staring at charts. It may become a full-time job but at this point, it is only for extra income.

The best trade thus far I have made was to have purchased gold and silver in 2005. When gold moved above $500 an oz. and silver above $8.24. Ownership of the physical allows one to freely trade contract futures (paper). In a sense, my gold and silver trading still continues in that those physical purchases affords me any addtional leverage I may need when trading paper.

Me too, Big Mike. Despite being a psychologist, I blew out 4 accounts on the road to achieveing some freedom from pride, greed and triggeritis. Looking forward to dialog with some emotionally healthy consistently earning fulltime daytraders...
