just looked at todays charts I don't know what it is but my charts do look better than others though you get some I don't get today within 3 minutes there were 2 nice ones {image}

I do believe it plays a large part in success to have a setup the same as H's. With these volume/tick candles printing differently depending on data feed and setup everyone's will be different, similar perhaps but different.

IMO you will find it very difficult to win unless your candles are printing advantageously. Get the proper hymn sheet and sing the same song so to speak.

I will admit that blaming the tools is an excuse but backtests don't lie so what can you do.

Here is another sample to compare which may have worked out if you got a fill on the last trade ( there was some volume on that level so good chance of a fill):

I love the way that news follows TA and not the other way around. We have buyers already returning from prior demand and then a bullish 123 formed before news at 12:45;

3 no fills on good setups. The last NF would have seen the end of trading today if it hit the limit order.

What did you get H?

I prefer them in sets of 5's and retest the start.

What's the code for the Mar contract? mines already automatically rolled and deselecting auto rollover doesn't put it back...

*Edit* no worries, found it under - the 'find' tab, no less)

You using sierra just unclick auto rollover saying that tomorrow volume will probably be higher on the new month
