DislikedWhat a day! my first day of trading a live futures account. Went with AMP/Sierra/CQG wit account activation 10 minutes before market open. click/clickity/click to quickly setup Sierra to connect to CQG and got rolling. Intra-day chart simply would not work so used ThinkOrSwim charting with Sierra's DOM. long story short, I was up $750 on a $2K by 7:35am pacific and then started making mistakes (lost focus as it was approaching time to srop my son to school !!!) Ended the day with $170 in profit :-(Ignored

Disliked{quote} Harold will show you how to see your running daily P/L on the chart. You can even see the trades marked, like theunis does. I simply take the total profit in ticks and subtract 1 tick per contract, per trade to get to my net profit. That gets me very close.Ignored
Disliked{quote} Isnt there like a template (similar to MT4 template/profile) for Sierra that I can use so all our chart setups look the same? I miss MT4 man.... i will admit. these platforms are just weird.... even CQG mobile is piece of shit from what I can tell.Ignored
Disliked{quote} will do. First, I need to figure out if CQG can change my userid. It is set to first initial and lastname. They won't allow the same feed to be used for more than one instance of Sierra or Sierra+CQGMobile. That would suck. And finally, I still cannot see the commission/fees per trade in my platform. Is that normal? Do I wait for a freaking daily statement to see how much net PnL I made for the day? That would suck as well lol I just realized my thinkorswim chart was on a delayed feed... now this i will NOT forget LOLIgnored
Disliked{quote} whenever i stream i have tradingview (from the site where i actually place trades), amp tradingview (for streaming view), and CQG desktop (for pnl view) running at the same time, no issues. yes, you have to wait about day to see how your pnl is after comms are applied. Or just download your cqg fills for the day and multiply contracts by your RT comm. pretty simple.Ignored
Disliked{quote} hmm... they only gave me access to CQG mobile... which I hate, I will ask if I can get access to desktop. I am finally done for the day (or maybe not lol) Edit: Yikes, I trades 81 trades or around 40 contracts round trip. I am making my broker love me :-( {image}Ignored
Disliked{quote} Can I be your broker lol 40 freaking trades man that is stressful trading made simple (pardon the parody) lol. If you want I can show you how to setup charts the way you want showing dplIgnored
