Hi there Where can I get news for all grains i.e. Wheat, SoyBeans, Coren etc? I'm referring to news like Forex Factory calendar news i.e. http://www.forexfactory.com/calendar.php Also, are there any news from Forex Factory calendar I should take in consideration when trading Grains i.e. Consumer Price Index, Unemployment Claims, Existing Home Sales etc? I've checked cmegroup.com, but can not find a calendar there for Grains Thanks

If youre using a smaller timeframe i.e. tick, range or vol chart, would you ever experience this limit day problem? Also, can someone please explain this limit issue for dummies like me? -
Do you get slippage even if you enter as a limit order? thanks

Thanks for that, is trading the Hang Seng Index Futures or the Mini OK for new traders? Also, how should on prepare to trade it? i.e. When trading ES or DOW etc, I can get News times and make sure I don't trade 5 min/5 after. But for the Hang Seng Future/Mini Index there is no news. Also they have a 2 hr lunch break, normally that time, would you expect a big gap (down/up) thanks

Hi I am new to the Hang Seng Index, I have a few questions 1. Can you trade the Hang Seng Index ? 2. What is it like to trade i.e. is there a lot of volumn, or just to slow 3. Compared to other markets like ES/DOW, is it choppy? 4. What platform supports this i.e. viewing the data in a chart thanks for all your help

Hi there Wonder if you guys can help? I found this code in google, can someone please help me in translating it to NinjaTrader (pref working with Ninja 7 as well?) Hope this is OK? <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Inputs: Sens(3), Mult(2); Variables: Variable1(1), Variable2(18), Variable3(0), Variable4(9999999); Variables: Variable5(9999999), Variable6(9999999), Variable7(0), Variable8(0); Variables: Variable9(0), Variable10(0), Variable11(0), Variable12(0); Variable1 = Sens ; Variable2 = 18+Sens*Variable1 ; Variable3 = JCAVR (Mult) ; Variable7 = AVERAGE (CLOSE, 9) ; Variable8 = AVERAGE (CLOSE, Variable2) ; IF true THEN BEGIN IF HIGH-LOW = 0 THEN Variable9 = AVERAGE (ABSVALUE (CLOSE-CLOSE[3]), 10) ELSE Variable9 = AVERAGE (RANGE, 10) ; IF LOW-Variable10 > Variable3*1*(1*RECIPROCAL (BIGPOINTVALUE)) THEN Variable10 = LOW-(1+0.1*Sens)*Variable9 ; IF Variable6-HIGH > Variable3*1*(1*RECIPROCAL (BIGPOINTVALUE)) THEN Variable6 = HIGH+(1+0.1*Sens)*Variable9 ; IF Variable7[1] < Variable8[1] AND Variable7 > Variable8 THEN Variable10 = TrueLow-Variable9 ; IF Variable7[1] > Variable8[1] AND Variable7 < Variable8 THEN Variable6 = TrueHigh+Variable9 ; IF MRO (Variable7 >= Variable8, 2, 2) >-1 AND Variable10 <= Variable10[1] THEN Variable10 = Variable10[1] ; IF MRO (Variable7 <= Variable8, 2, 2) >-1 AND Variable6 >= Variable6[1] THEN Variable6 = Variable6[1] ; Variable11 = MAXLIST (CLOSE[1]-AVGTRUERANGE (5)*3, IFF (CLOSE[1] < Variable11[1], 0, Variable11[1])) ; Variable12 = MINLIST (CLOSE[1]+AVGTRUERANGE (5)*3, IFF (CLOSE[1] > Variable12[1], CLOSE*2, Variable12[1])) ; IF Variable7[1] < Variable8[1] THEN Variable10 = MAXLIST (LOW-Variable11, Variable10) ; IF Variable7[1] > Variable8[1] THEN Variable6 = maxLIST (Variable12-HIGH, Variable6) ; IF Variable7 >= Variable8 AND Variable10 <= HIGH THEN PLOT1 (Variable10, "BuyStop") ; IF Variable6 > 0 AND Variable6 < 1000000000 AND Variable7 <= Variable8 AND Variable6 >= LOW THEN PLOT2 (Variable6, "SellStop") ; END ; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< This is the JCAVR function Inputs: Mult(NUMERIC); JCAVR = Mult*AVERAGE (RANGE, 10)*BIGPOINTVALUE ; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Does anyone have this for Ninja? Thanks
-
Does this VS indicator work with EOD? or does it have to be in realtime? ... for Ninja Thanks
-
Thanks for that, that was really useful. So why dont day traders hedge everything they do with this, I think its a win/win situation? I mean, if I were to trade DOW, and it went all wrong, I can trade ProShares Short Dow30 (ETF). Dont know if this makes sense? Maybe day traders do this? But its a nice idea.
-
Thanks diablo272, I looked at that, really useful that was. Just one question, can one buy ETF's? i.e. like from a broker and is it the same as buying 1 contract like the eminis? Thanks again
-
I have, acaully before I started a thread I had done that, but as you know, im new to trading, and I thought someone can give me a dummies guide to what it is. thanks
-
hi there What are ProShares UltraShort ? i've noticed everytime the DOW or ES goes up, ProShares UltraShort goes down, and everytime the DOW or ES does down, ProShares UltraShort goes up. Can you buy ProShares UltraShort contracts like you can buy contracts for the DOW or ES? Thanks
-
What do you mean by thin? do you mean theres no volumn
-
Thankyou guys, you really helped me in understanding how it works. OK, whats the slippage like for @YM? I guess it's not max 2 ticks for that? Hope you can help me again with this. Many thanks and king regards
