New poll on forum homepage, please vote there and discuss here.
What is your daily profit, per contract , as measured by % of DR (daily range )?
For example, if the daily range is 40 ticks, and you have trade 1 contract for 4 ticks ten times, that would be 100%.

My results are also a few days old I think, but you can check the csv source data I used and see if it is right. I hope to get NT fixed soon so I can test myself.

So far the early voters are indicating they don't have a plan to capture a certain amount of movement from the market.
Why does this not surprise me?
