  1. Hi all!

     

    I am in need of some longer periods of REPLAY DATA for NINJA TRADER.

     

    I realize there are various historical data vendors. This however does not seem to help me at all.

     

    NINJATRADER has a special REPLAY DATA file format.

     

    The way to normally get your own REPLAY DATA is via the REPLAY RECORDER...when this is enabled in NINJA, and you have your SUPERDOM open, then the market that the DOM is set to will be recorded. So say you wish to record the S&P, NQ and DAX, then you need to have three SUPERDOM windows open...as each will recorders a separate file.

     

    Anyone that can help me with data??

     

    I need data for the NQ and DAX for past 6 months?

     

    Thanks in advance.

  2. Hi there,

     

    I have had a look at all sorts of strategies and systems. There are some very very clever guys out there coding some amazing stuff.

     

    My question is:

     

    Can you rely on their system and go live within days or should one SIM for a week, month or a year?

     

    So many people have said, trading is a career...it is not like you can do brain surgery once you have attended a 3 day course...you need to practice at it! NOT on MY brain thanks!

     

    This is my worry....how long do I SIM?

     

     

    Any advice?

  3. I have looked at Scalping in depth. Here and there you find some really good ideas, products and services.

     

    What worries me about scalping is of this is NOT automated....unless you are super consistant...one will not be able to have for example a 3:1 win to loss ration all the time.

     

    From what I understand you need to have consistant results to call it a system...else it is gambling.

     

    What do you think?

  4. I have read in various publications that trading (at least making a success of it) is more about money management and the mental part of trading, rather than which indicator you use or which system you follow.

     

    I would like to know your thoughts on this? Are these guys then saying that one can pretty much make a success of this with ANY indicator...as long as you THINK / BELIEVE you will be successful at it?

     

    Heck - to me this is a little silly...ignorant almost. As first have the indicator working well in back testing and THEN make it work....at least THEN let it make you money. What do you think?
