{quote} Hey jt, i used to trade the tf until about the data feed costs exploded to over 100 usd a Month. Back then it was still usd 10 per tick like Cl. Sometimes It moved like a Machine and due to the tickvalue the commission were lower as the nq which was a good thing. But Cl worked better for me so i dumped it. A strategy like this One here could be Well suitet for the tf
There's talk of CMEG buying out ICE... lets hope, if so, the fees go the right direction! I've been finding the FTSE trending well often, since i've started watching it and would love to trade it in Futures...

I'm looking forward to what "H" has to say about todays trading day. I think its a typical day no matter which trading style you use, where you can run in to big problems.

Very tough again.

Only using H's method, I was +7, 0 & +2 for +9... adding my hybrid entries took me to -12...

(hmm, could be a message for me in there somewhere )

Btw, DOUBLE the range on FDXM so far today (compared to NQ).. & 27k contracts traded up to now (versus almost 78k on NQ, with a lot more to come)... if it keeps this up, I will return to EU mornings only ...

I watched all videos on YT, very easy method to follow, I appreciate the time you spent recording these and explaining Mr. Howard.

Could you please find time to make one video with how to set up sierra chart platform, mainly chart settings for us newbies?
This is my first time outside of MT4. I just want to have my chart looks exactly like yours, so there is no doubt I screwed up something with the settings (which are many) when I start comparing my trading with yours.

Thanks!

Very rough day I had the rare accurrence of 2 -15 tick losses but also had a few wins up 12 so far will attempt after lunch to see if a trend happens. very low volume today as well as range for the day abnormal day to say the least will post video after I attempt to grab some in afternoon sometimes you have to work a little over time on the job

All from NQ? Would love to see your chart! I mean I believe you, I would just like to see how you made it.

Todays results across 4 trades. +16 +1 -14 -4, net -1. The first two were all good, the second two were poorly managed and I didn't follow the rules properly, but I can see how to improve and I have a good feeling about where I'm headed Although +73 seems an awfully long way off!

No not from NQ, so not relevant to this thread in all honesty... from 4 different pairs/index's, (not Futures - so also, pips, not ticks)

Another fun session - find myself browsing vintage audio (a hobby) ads in markets like this... my one long trade yielded +16, but my entry was 1 minute before H's official start, tsk tsk (I liked the setup and took it)... could go long right now at 5181.75, but I just hate buying into all time highs... hmm, whist typing it's hit +11 so far...

5181 was todays home run JT. I ended up +4 from that zone :-(
Would be excited as a IT company share holder last 2-3 years. No matter how terrible products they made, their shares are only growing :-)
