hmm, I just spent 30 minutes trying to find it as well, no luck. I did find a couple studies referring to the difference between volume and trades (ticks) for mature markets vs emerging markets. Emerald: Article Request - Trade size, trade frequency, and the volatility-volume relation ScienceDirect - Journal of Financial Economics : Trade size, order imbalance, and the volatility–volume relation*1 This leads me to suspect that each market might need to be handled differently... or that preferred trading style will lead you to trade different markets. Rahul

that's a great insight... sounds like anything else, changing markets require one to adapt.

ok... yeah, real trades are very different from bid/ask quotes I'm talking about traded ticks and volume

Ticks and Volume have been shown through various research studies by the CME (I believe) to have a high degree of correlation... meaning you can use either. Rahul

I believe TradeStation displays inside bid/ask.... however, I'm unsure if it displays historical information or displays based on how long the chart is kept open. Rahul

Hi everyone, If you're using OwnData from TSSupport and you'd like to take your data needs to the next level using OwnData custom API and don't want to spend $5000 to do it, then let's talk. reply here or PM btw, I'm not affiliated with TSSupport, I'm an independent trader. thank you, Rahul

Hey Everyone, I was curious to know if any highly successful consistently profitable experienced traders are up for speaking to and masterminding with me. I've been trading various products for 5 years: US equities, US index futures and spot currencies in long term, swing and day trading timeframes. Overall, I'm satisfied with my strategies and the customizations I've researched and developed. However, there are some changes I'd like to make with my mindset as it relates to proper execution after an extended drawdown and extended run up. I'm looking to learn how a consistently successful trader thinks and views the markets. I'm not interested in anyone's system, instead I'm looking to experience a consistently successful traders' perception and behaviour. I'm 33, old to know I don't know everything and young enough to still be able to change. I'd be incredibly grateful if anyone would share some of their views of how they have gained the consistency they have achieved. They can trade any market because I'm only interested learning how they view the markets and what kind of mindset they have. I would love to have the opportunity to speak to someone for only 30-60 minutes a week. Enough time to touch base and heed any expert advice. I have a huge passion and commitment for the financial markets and define trading success as properly executing my trading trategies. I understand it's a continual process. I'm not sure how, yet, to return the favour, but I will come up with something. I know this may be strange to ask, but if I don't put it out there I'll never know! Please reply here if you're up for it, and then we can move forward from that. Thanks for your time everyone. Rahul
