  1. Why would that be redundant? Around the corner where I live we have a Kroger grocery store as well as a Tom Thumb grocery store. Would you say one is redundant because they both offer the same goods?
  2. Why are you posting the same request in different threads?

    Average VWAP

    Why do you say that 5 days will give a true understanding of where the price/share ratio is? Why 5 days and not 3 or 10?
  4. Please point out a source saying that Moving Average means Normal Moving average as in your statement I have marked in bold above. The definition says Average, not Normal Average. I have referred you to a source showing that Average can mean different things. All you have is your assumption that Average means Normal average and call anyone who disagree with your assumption dumb. (errr.. dump). "Brain usage" is not a valid reason to prove something.
  5. Where do you get your official definition of Average from that Average means Normal Average? According to Wikipedia, Average can mean different things and not Normal Average when someone say Average. What source did you use? Btw, what does "a little dump mean"? Is that when someone think dump is the same as dumb or that their assumptions make something official?
  6. It's posted in the Open E Cry thread, so I would say it is safe to assume it is OEC.
  7. Since you are still developing the system, I'd say finish the system first and test it with one contract before you start to worry about maximum number of contracts. You are still far away from that point where you have to worry about things like that. Besides, what is your definition of serious slippage?
  8. I have some opinions too, but I prefer not to share them with you in order to avoid confusion. I think you will find that you receive a lot more help if you show that you are willing to put in some effort from your side first. Just my
  9. And how would that help you? You don't know me and you have no idea what my goals and requirements are and they could be vastly different than yours. Something that are useless and expensive for me, could be good and cheap for you. When asking for recommendations about something, the mimimum you could do is defining your requirements and what you are looking for from it. Would you buy a Porsche 911 because someone you don't know from Adam told you that he recommends it, even though you live in the middle of a jungle where roads barely exist and you are looking for something that can handle rough terrains and lots of muddy areas, but you didn't tell him that?
  10. It depends on what your definition of good/bad and expensive/not expensive is.
  11. Did you see the question was asked almost a year ago? How did you find a post like that?
  12. If you $24.95 a month is too much for you to test out something new, then you probably should not be trading.
  13. Does this mean you are giving the indicators away for free?
  14. So you are saying that someone should rather trade the US futures during night time in the US instead of the asian markets during their regular trading hours? So all the people creating all that volume on the asian markets during Asian regular trading hours should stop wasting their time and start trading the dead nightly US markets with its thin volume during that time?
  15. If you are looking for full time traders, why post in the Beginners forum? What happens after 30 days? If they want to continue with it, is payment requirement? Are you in effect trying to sell your indicators on here disguising it as a "test" period?
  16. Why is that a problem for trading?
  17. You can check with them to confirm, but I have an e-mail from Dennis saying that they have no plans to increase the limit in the "regular" version. One of the many narrow minded things they are doing over there imo.
  18. If someone suggests that they should know something more than you because of their credentials, do you want to question their credentials? I mean if they post week in and week out great results then shouldn’t they be able to produce those live? I mean what would be the difference between showing someone that they can really produce those blotters live and posting them after the fact? Can you guess why no one will do this? I know. No one has anything to prove. But if you have nothing to prove, then you really shouldn’t suggest that you know something more than someone else because you are “experienced” if you really do not want to prove that you are a better trader. As I said.. you are missing the point and apparently unwilling to see it. No point to take this further as the thread has been derailled too much already.
  19. Last time I checked you can only backtest 100 symbols in the porfolio. If you want to backtest more, you have to buy the "Pro" version for $9,900 (Yes, $10K!). Amibroker can do the same for a fraction of the cost.
  20. Here is the NT version of the EL code I have posted in this thread with the definitions I am using: VSA Volume I am sure the code is not very well written as I am still learning C# and does not provide everything you are asking for but maybe would give you a starting point. Also, you are pretty much on your own with it as I cannot really provide much support. VSA_Volume.zip
  21. You are missing the point. No one is using you being a breakeven as condescenting. The fact is that by following your own advice you are a breakeven trader, but yet you want to tell other people that they should do what you do and believe. Why do you think your advice is of any value and going to help anyone when this is not even helping yourself? This is like me saying, hey guys, I cannot break 100 in golf, but if you do exactly as I do and ignore the advice the PGA pro gave you, then you will play better golf. You can tell yourself all day long that breakeven is good and better than most. Breakeven trading does not pay the bills. You mainly come over as bitter and sour that other people are successful when you are not. "Proving" that you are a breakeven or losing trader, will not prove anything or give you any credibility. Anyone can put on losing trades by entering a couple of random trades.
  22. I think the bottom line is that you have been doing this for two years and is still not profitable, but yet you think your believes about trading are correct. If after two years you are still breakeven and you do not change what you are doing and believing to be correct, you will still be breakeven after another two years. If I am a new trader and I have to decide whos viewpoints and believes I am going to pay attention to and have to chose between between someone who has demonstrated over and over that he know what he is talking about and is profitable, or between someone who admits that he is not profitable, then this is a no brainer. I am not sure what other viewpoint you think you are giving to newer traders? Your viewpoints are that you disagree with someone's who is profitable, but yet you are not profitable yourself following your own advice and view. Why do you think new traders will find this appealing?
  23. How do you mean you have a hard time finding it? Where did you look? NT's volume indicator is right there with the other NT indicators when you press Cntrl+I in any chart.
