On my Sierra Chart Trade Account Monitor there two Columns - Margin Requirement and Full Margin.
They have following values for 1 MHG Contract.

What's the difference between them and which one is the one to look at, so it does not exceed my cash balance
and have my broker liquiditate all my positions.

I posted a NinjaTrader8 indicator to share with the community. Now the link to the zip file is bad -- perhaps it always was. [BarCounterBPA.zip v1.0]. Can I just DELETE it? There doesn't seem to be a way to do this that is obvious. I may repost it once I've successfully deleted it. Many thanks! -Bill-

@sunshnpeg, where did you post it? Can you give me a link? Or some idea where to find it?

Hi @sellhi,

I see that you have already reposted your question in the Platforms and Indicators section. I have renamed your thread to "Need Help Using Sierra Chart" (from just "Sierra Charts") and have moved it from the general "Platforms and Indicators" section to the more specific "Platforms and Indicators > Sierra Chart" area.

I hope this will expose your questions to more Sierra Chart users who might be able to give you some assistance.

You can access the renamed and moved thread by clicking on this box:



Good luck in mastering this very flexible (but very complex) trading platform.

Bob.

Hi @Dagobert,

I have created a new thread for your question in the Sierra Chart section of the forum, and copied your post into it. This should make it more visisble to others who use and are familiar with Sierra Chart, and make it more likely you will get a response.

I hope you will quickly get your question answered.

I am a new futures spreader that have been trading the outrights for years, and have now switched to futures spreads.

I would like to know if anyone can recommend the Moores Research on futures, or if the spread software, ""SeasonAlgo" would be a better choice for the analytics.

Hi, I also recently started spread trading and was looking into subscriptions for either Seasonalgo or MRCI, did you go with one of them in the end ? if not, i'd also love to share a subscription if you'd like..

Hi @DeanJ,

We do not have a separate TradingView section, but I have copied your question to a new thread in the generic Traders Hideout section, which is read by TradingView users who may be able to give you a hand. You can access the new thread by clicking this box:



You can find any responses to the question there.

Good luck.

Bob.
