Playback of the Day's Action

Recommended Posts

I need a charting program where I can record and then playback the day's action. I work full time, and just don't have the ability to spend any focused time watching while the market is going. So, I have come up with the idea to record and then play it back later.

 

I am planning on trading futures, so that is what I want to record. I will likely stick with one of the emini products like ES, YM, or NQ.

 

I presume I will need to fund an account to get the datafeed. However, if I can just get past feeds somewhere and play those back, I am willing to do that too.

 

What are the options and recomedations that you have?

 

Thank you.

You can do this with NinjaTrader. NT is free in sim mode. You will have to connect it to a broker and IB is probably the cheapest to get data. It cost something like $10 a month if you don't generate $30 in commissions a month. You will have to open an account though. I am not sure what the minimum is. Check their website. NT's playback is pretty good though.

 

I think you can also do it with OEC. I haven't used OEC, so I don't know how good it is. You can sign up for a 15 day trial I think to check it out.

 

You can also do it with Ensign. I think it's subscription is around $40/month, but that includes downloading playback files I think.

 

I'm sure there are plenty others, but these are the ones coming to mind.

    • @sxiqxx, Well done on making your first post a promising strategy. @everyone, post up if you want this coded into an EA. Although I switched to TradeStation, I still have an active MT5 demo with MetaEditor. I can code it without referencing object oriented programming which should be retroactively compatible with MT4. Let me know...
    • Please allow me to retort (in jest): RESPONSE 1 : Get a job supervising others where you're in control of performance reports and ride those others 100%. This makes your performance 100% with little to no effort.   RESPONSE 2: Feel free to piss off your boss but stay nonviolent. When the side effects of his viagra and testosterone boosters cause him to physically assault you, you have the legal upper hand. This can result in a boatload of trading capital.   RESPONSE 3: Feel free to have intimate relations with your boss if she finds you attractive. Rest assured that mum's the word because once again, you have the legal upper hand. This can also result in a boatload of trading capital.   RESPONSE 4: Don't be fake friends with any enemies... unless you need information from them. Being fake friends with everyone will cause you to become an empty shell of a person with no direction in life.   REPONSE 5: Get your boss to become reliant on your performance (really, just the performance of your subordinates), and then plan an "overheard" conversation wherein you fake an interview with another potential employer. You'll probably get a pay increase or a promotion.   RESPONSE 6: If you can give your 75% percent to a project, give 50% and rely on your legal upper hand(s). Learn to write trading algo's during your other 50%.   RESPONSE 7: Take all of the office boys out to nightclub where you merely sip soft drinks on a weeknight. Upon your return to the office in the morning, inform the security guards that all of the office boys are intoxicated. Your boss will love you for it.   RESPONSE 8: Never try to prove your client wrong or find faults in their processes, but do secretly collect their information in case you jump ship or "someone you know" decides to start his own company.   RESPONSE 9: Never stay in a firm for too long. Instead, use your ill-gotten capital to exit the rat-race and start trading.   RESPONSE 10: Trading pays more than your career. Interpersonal skills are now irrelevant. Use your technical skills for trading. Never stop learning and keep updating your technical skills.😁
    • There are a lot of trading strategies like elliot waves, wyckoff etc so we need to apply those who best suited to our need and are understandable too.
    • Scalping can be good during the high volatile markets however the new traders should be careful while entering and exiting the markets too quickly since they can make losses as well. If the broker support news trading we can make most out of the scalping in my opinion.  
    • In my opinion these candlestick charts are more easier to understand as compared with the other charts.
