Thank you for this pedroxp!
it would be great if you post some rules the trades are based on + also a bit info to the MM / RM of the shown trades on the pics :
Targets / Trails / Stoploss values - to have a better idea of what you are talking about.
good trading
Yes... I'd like to see those too

Yes! ok. It's very simple.
I get in with 3 contracts ! Get out 2 contracts on 4 ticks profit, then I trail my last contract using an ATM strategy.
I'll post more pics. I'm with some issues also with the replay feature in ninja because I cannot get the same results in replay or in normal day.... strange thing. i don't understand, anyone knows why?
Regards and thanks for everything

Hi pedroxp,
this is "normal" in NT, also BackTest -Results are not the same as the same days tested in MarketReplay with strategys.
"normal" means it is known that it is like this. so its not really comparable.
Not nice but thats how it is at the moment.

What makes me to septical about the
vol splitter is that, the concept of plotting big traders is really good. In that case, why hasn't anyone else "even" attempted to create something like it?
We have. I have one. Do I use it? No. Why? Doesn't work consistently .
For one they're often wrong. Second, they can split orders so they don't appear to be a big trader. They have different goals, timeframes, etc. On a daily someone sees a setup and buys 1000 contracts . He doesn't care that the market goes down 8 ticks in the next second. But for a scalper it's really important, cause he doesn't care what the market will do tomorrow.
if you use a volume splitter you assume:
1 - big traders are right
2 - they're trading like you
another example, they could be hedging a stock porfolio. They could be playing a spread, buying ES and selling something else.
Overall I couldn't find any edge there. Doesn't mean one doesn't exist.

Personally,
I see no difference between large and small traders @ level 0 bid and ask .
I also don't have to know what the "smart traders" are doing. ( defining smart traders has little to do with trade size. My Opinion!!!)
My volume/tick splitters are available for free here in the VIP area.
With the volume and/or Tick splitters, I can see the carnage taking place.
I can see the market makers tricking the traders over and over again.
If you were in control of a market, when would you reverse the market to your benefit?
I have a pretty good idea.
Not tested yet, Still in research mode.
Plain as day on my splitter charts.
No, I'm not going to share.
I've given you the tools. Check it out for yourself

Well, I'm a trading for 3 years now on ES, just started out with tradestation and I've lost mutch money on the markets so I almost give up, but then I found EOTPro trading room witch I think is great and started up again "now on SIM" and on Ninja. But because I have my normal job it's difficult for me to trade, so I started to make an automated strategy on Ninja to trade the EOTPro system that Bill is using in the trading room.
I've been seeing talking very well about EOTPro indicators and the trading room here, so I think I can contribute with some ideas of this system and how it works. The first initial version I made simply uses the EOTPro indicators to enter and exit the market automatically.
I'm constantly testing it on market replay for this year 2009 and fixing issues and things I find by the way. The system is based on what Bill uses in the room.
I know that is extremely difficult to make a profitable short term system because the markets are always changing but since Bill uses almost a mechanical system to enter and exit the trades i think its possible to do this.
You can check the AMP webinar about EOTPro that Big Mike
recorded here . So I'm going to post some screens of it and some stats of course. I don't know if it's somewhat profitable or not, for July I have $3475 profit with 3
contracts . Thanks for everything and for your good posts that helped me doing this. Thanks again!!
just tried the torrent download and its not available, it was found, but no activity or bandwidth to download,
is there another location or revised one?
thanks Big Mike!!
woof,! woof!
