{quote} You can just choose 9:30 time in the replay control panel and choose whatever day you want . . . .
That will play every candle displayed on the chart. What I am suggesting with simply filter out the times on a chart that you do not want to care.... and result in reduced time in replaying the candles you trade on. Try it bro... it works great.

{quote} Nic are you still using this delta filter? Did anyone try different settings (incease the number from 10, etc)? Watched a video recently where a guy was using cummulative delta on ES in conjunction with supply/demand levels much like H's levels . . . . It does seem there would be an added edge with it.
I still cannot make the damn study work on my platform so gave up on that effort a while back. I still vouch my pinky on whatever Nick said on non-discretionary will not yield the same results as Harold's.

There is a video on this page with interesting delta ideas
(Again its ES and I am not sure how much translates to NQ, but its insightful.)

And here is one on absorption

This principle of large orders and absorbtion coupled with "Gravity points or levels" used by hedge funds to hedge third exposure on stocks via futures validates well with why I like to "float my orders" with the order flow via buy and sell stops. I should have saved the link from last night on a video from a quant who shared how these big boys break down large orders (1000+ contracts) into 10-20 trades per second via algo to dynamically hedge their stock portfolios. That is the reason why we see sudden moves in e-minie according to him.

I have no doubt others can achieve success with your style. I was referingr to automated and non-discretionary performance to match with yours. Automation will not come close if every signal is taken during the first hour...just my opinion and not trying to discourage anyone here from trying it out.

i just looked back all of oct before volitility kicked till present if you took all 123s at end pf trends with stop in the vicimity of 40 ticks some are less if stop was 50 ticks no trade there were 4 days you had no trades in first hour but if you traded 1 more hour 2 of those days would have had a setup triggered. Now if you just went for 40 ticks you would have made 40 everyday including wednesdays now thats something to think about

Interesting... by saying "at end of trends" do you mean trend reversals?

I also looked earlier and this looks good. Since I volunteered to cover for my team this holiday week, I will be trading Mon/Tuesday/Fri as well if volatility is favorable to my liking.

Regarding your connectivity issues at work, you could try Microsoft remote desktop app to see if it works with Sierra. That could be a good way to be mobile for you at work. Here's the link...https://social.technet.microsoft.com...t?forum=winRDc

Edit: for those interested in learning how algos work in making markets, you might want to watch the lunch hour of nyse and CME next week.

I loaded October again today too. Seems we are all putting in some extra time today. What about when to go to break even far these larger swings?
Appreciate your time Harold.

Volume up to this point is about half of what it was Friday. It may pick up as Europe comes online but right now it is weak.

Remember Thursday AND Friday are half days for CME. Wouldn't look for much volume on those days as well. I have been staying away on the half days. Not worth it from what I have seen.
