Quoting Dutchy Daxy
Started this DOW trade before the Friday close. Price broke out above my MA lines. (red channel on the 25 Range chart) I usually start a trade when the price is outside the colored MA line channel or breaks outside the red or green MA line channel. TARGET: Single TPO blocks from Monday a week ago @ 18.200 zone and still have to be covered/Gap or pocket to be filled. (see Daily TPO chart) T1 +11 1 lot T2 +21 1 lot 1 lot to go. Same trade in the S$P (ES) ES has single TPO blocks/a Pocket /GAP to fill @ 2144 to 2147 GAP zone DAX will likely open higher....
I have to wait to today before I can trade. I could not buy last week as they expired on Friday and did not want to get caught. Futures contracts usually get closed out on expirations date which was last Friday.

(Tnx for that) http://www.fxcodebase.com/code/downl...le.php?id=4882 I work with Ninja Trader platform so I have no MT4 Market Profile indicator. Maybe somebody else here has.
Thank you Dutchy for the prompt reply.

Will i be able to use your TPO indicator with a free version of Ninja Trader? Haven't read about the platform in detail yet but seems like there's a free version

The TPO chart program is made by www.fin-alg.com. (the one I use)
You can try it for a few weeks and then you have to buy a one time license +-/ $250,00

Ninja Trader platform itself you can use a free demo version for SIM trading only.
(I would advice to trade SIM for a decent time to learn the platform and see if it suits you. They have great video's on You Tube as well))
Please visit the website.

(I have no single connection with Ninja or Fin-alg.com. Just a happy user!)

ES and YM (S&P and DOW) still steaming up to the week old single TPO blocks.
Might stall there

FLAT last lot +31 points

ES is almost in that single TPO block zone (from week ago) and could pull back from here.
Both US markets the price is very far away from all my MA lines, which means a pull back could come. (overbought?)
MA lines start to pull on the price to get the price back down again.

I don't use any other indicator then 3 MA lines and the TPO chart for targets and levels.
