Surfer, I have been reading your thread everyday for the past week and am very happy that things worked out for you, we have all had similar...
In the past I have looked at this idea many times but never had the chance to do any rigorous research. The basic concept is to employ a medium...
imho this is totally a useless system for us individual traders. This may make sense for large funds who have the resources and employees to...
Yes full size contracts; If you are swing trading using a trend following method, imo Russell, 10 YR TN, DAX and most currencies offer the best...
I remember reading some of your other posts, I believe you use Don Millers trading system, which is somewhat discretionary? In the past I have...
Paul, I just get the margins from my broker, unfortunately they are pwd protected in my case. You may be able to get them from various...
Never heard of Renko charts, I did do a search in TS7 but couldn't find them. TS7 just has the regular Bar, line and candle formats. Are they...
I investigated the following, even placed a few trades in each, but wide spreads, low volume make them unsuitable for active systematic trading....
OPS, what exactly is your objective? Are you interested in learning about Mechanical Trading in general or how it is applied by large funds?...

Yes, TS7 does offer 1 click order entry for eminis, there is a confirmation feature but you can turn it off. You can also setup hot keys. They...
hmm, if the above is true I wonder why NQ's exchange margin is 20% less than ES? Could the very smart trader share his/her insights?
Interesting that you mention this Jester. This has been my experience as well. My trend following systems respond much better to NQ than they do...
I have certainly done that in the past, adding on to losing positions, as a percentage I would say it has worked for me probably 70% of time. But...
I saw TS7 this past weekend at the nyc trading expo. The order entry tab for futures is much like what we have for equities, it has three buttons...
Like man possessed by some demon I made a non-system trade on Friday and shorted some 10-yr TN calls... I think today the biggest drop in...
As one poster humorously mentioned that there was lot less free stuff this time(which btw was true). I think this pretty much sums up the current...
Tired of the NYC winters, couple of years ago we looked into getting a second home in golfers dream city of Scottsdale, AZ. I made my rounds to...
