Re: Nexgen T-3 Indicators full open code

Somebody asked earlier about running NexGen T3 on esignal. I went through their demo boot camp (for 1 or 2 weeks) and at the time I was an esignal user. I tried to run their standard configuration on esignal and it died badly. This was a couple years ago, but when I asked them more about it they just said that they could not get their code to run well on esignal. They were primarily Tradestation as Ninjatrader was very young. I would not try to run Nexgen on esignal. It just doesn't run right and dies all over the place.

yes, please post it. I'm trying to understand how volume works with price and other indicators. I'm looking for easylanguage source.

Re: Futures + data/chart software

I concur. After much research and using different platforms, the way of the future is NinjaTrader and Zen-Fire data feed. Whether you get this feed from Mirus or AMP doesn't really matter. It's the speed of the data and the robustness of the platform. Plus you can't beat the ATM Automatic Trade Management routines built into NT.

If you want to trade on other exchanges besides the usual CME or ICE, then IB is probably the next best choice. At least NT gives you the option.

TradeStation is a good development platform, as EasyLanguage is pretty simple. But their brokerage sucks big time. Their margins are too high, their data is mediocre and their execution environment with the Trade Manager is archaic.

Even though MetaTrader is prevalent across all the different retail forex brokers, I'm moving to NinjaTrader for as much as I can. C# coding is the way of the future, especially in the .Net world of windows.

Re: the dollar last night

a good chart to watch is the ICE dollar index - symbol DX. As it goes, the Euro goes opposite.
