Hey guys, anyone have experience going through services like TopStep or Earn2Trade?

I just finished my first month of trading futures on a live account and thought I would post my results. It's been an interesting month adjusting to futures from forex. For background info, I've been demo trading futures for 3 months and have demo + ...

Does anyone know what caused that drop? Scouring FF and I don't see any news that could be causing it.

FYI -

The funny thing is, I have volume on my charts because of you Back in the day, I used to post in the 'vsa with malcolm' and 'smart volume analysis' threads after reading the Tom Williams book. Your posts were always a great read, and still ...

I finally got some time to trade today and it ended up being one of my best days to date, +50 points Trade 3 was the big one - as soon as the news popped I sold hard

Same here. I'd be interested in seeing how you use that tool, and why you use tick charts over standard time-based charts. I'm guessings its to filter out noise and just focus on PA?

Yesterday's trades on the left, today's trades on the right. I don't know what's going on today - is anyone else getting these gapped bars? I have 3 just today.

I don't think you can change the time in MT5 - it's hardcoded to show the trading server's time. I've tried looking for indicators/scripts to resolve this issue but no luck

Today was a slightly red day (-2 ticks). Could have been worse, but I followed my system rules and that saved me. Bought on the break of TL 1 but that trade went south pretty fast. I sold right away due to the bearish momentum and scalped a couple ...

Been busy with work the past few days but I was able to find some time this morning. Trade 1 entered on break of TL #1, trade 2 entered on break of TL #2. I am probably going to remove the red/green heiken ashi indicator, I find myself not using it ...

Yeah, this chop has been terrible. 6 trades today, luckily I made out a net of +3 points, mostly thanks to trade 3. I was in for trade 5 for 1 contract, and accidentally hit sell again instead of closing out the trade...luckily the market dipped a ...

Well, that depends on what you want to use MAs for. Knowing current price direction? Finding pullbacks and adding onto already entered positions? Exiting?

Nice work. Good end to the week for me too. That big bear bar was because of a Trump tweet about China I believe. I actually tried to trade it (trade 3), should have held on lol Trades 1 and 4 were according to the system. Trade 2 was a trendline ...

Good call!

I've tried drawing longer timeframe lines before, but its made my trading worse (not to say it won't work for someone else). I think it adds another layer of analysis and I prefer to just focus on the last 10-20 bars in the here and now. One thing ...

Phew, its been a busy morning. Trades are on the chart - business as usual. I'm primarily using manual trailing stops and trendline breaks to exit. One thing I still struggle with is knowing whether a break constitutes a new trend and if I should ...

Also, this morning's trades - Trade 1 was a win, trade 2 is looking like a small loss if it closes above that trendline

Thanks for the reply. A quick search told me the mini-Nikkei 225 might be a good fit, so I'll give that a go * What hours are you looking to trade? 6pm-11pm EST * What types of instruments are you willing to trade? This is a bit harder to answer. I ...

Good morning, I was wondering if anyone here daytrades in the evening hours? If so, what instruments do you find the best for it? Right now I'm trading micro ES during the day, but I have a full-time job which makes it pretty difficult
