Hi guys, this is one of the best thread in this forum i would say. I have been trading forex live and demo for nearly 3+years and past 6 months or so trading only Dax, never been consistently profitable . Hence luckily seen this thread ten days before started reading Divergence posts all over the forum , i must thank him big time to make me realize how important to have a buisiness plan in this journey. He insists countless times to set a goal for a day , That's where i beleive i have been failing so far. 20 -40 ticks a day can change our life drastically if i can cope with the discipline issues related to over trading.

Opened sim account with infinity and trading for past few days, gaining my confidence across. I Guess mini dax not available for demo trading but i like NQ seems much cooler than dax beast.

Thanks Harold and CG

why you guys go with infiniti? amp charges 3.6 per round. Much cheaper and they do include sierra..

Not yet, not yet ... ended at -21 and calling it a day ... seeing the S/D levels better but my entry points is still lacking ... the first trade was a no-no ... will steer well clear of the opening range in future ...

Mine is $4.90 per round turn at Infinity ... good enough ... I tried Amp but their Sierra platform felt and traded different than Infinity ... weird ... but I like Infinity better.

One of the smallest FCMs but they are excellent! I love it too. Better than TDA.

Wow ... what a gap ... was open off a sell at 0125 and it gapped 84 ticks down and closed there ... a bit scary .. could easily have gone the other way.

I am trading the NQZ8 now, the NQU8 order settings does not work any more .. is it the same with you guys?

At long last, a positive tick day ... ended at +33 (I do not count the +84 gap trade, that was just a fluke) ... wanted to try for 50 but I just missed a few good thrust bar setups and must run now ...

Thats positive.
I ended positive also. Still so glad i found NQ.
What took me a few days with UJ is usually accomplished in 30-40min with NQ.

NQU18 should still work. I traded it today just fine. look at cme site, volume is at +300k
NQZ18 is around 50k

after today, you'd want to switch over to NQZ18 though. always switch on the 2nd thursday of the expiration month.
