There is a big difference between filtered and unfiltered datas.
-
Good Morning Traders! Plan on going short at 1171.50
-
that is the reason why i do not place my stop because the funds manager needs to exit their positions.
-
yes sir!. becauuse the odd of hitting my old profit target at 1169.25 is slim vs 1171.25. And when the fund exit their positions, the market may not drop passed the 50% retracement level. therefore, the 1171.25 is in within the 50% retracement

I believe tradestation has filtered data. Have u seen unfiltered data like ninja trader zen fire?
-
I take a point on all contracts. let me give an example on today trade. i went short 1170.25. The reason why i chose 11701.25 is because the uptrend began at 1165.25 which means fund managers are buying and believe that the fund manager will begin to take profit above 1169.25. If the fund managers continue to the uptrend, i plan on adding at 1174.25. I believe at that point, the fund managers exit their long positions.

what platform are u using?

trading live for 4 yrs my friend. Traded when the es was at the historical volitility year (2008) constantly even traded when my brokerage server bust every other week due to historical volitlity in 2008.

I have been doing this for 4 yrs. My system went thru when the stock market crashed in 2008. In fact, i traded more when the ES was averaging 40 pts per day and I had no stop and looking for 1pt profit target. That said, the volatility now vs the stock market crashed 2008 is like trading oats futures. Too slow. The key to day trade futures market especially es, is to trade with no fear.

there is slippage. look how wide the buy and ask spread? also, if you are using filtered data, expect lots of slippage vs unfiltered data.
