Really? You do understand what i am asking right? If i am looking at NQ and support is at 14507 and current price is 14532 all i want to know is if i plan to set my stop at 14490 how much will i loose per contract if stopped out WITHOUT getting out my calculator. i can't believe no one has ever written a computer program that can do that!

what about setting up a template in the Profit/Loss tool(risk/reward in some software) in EPX for each instrument, then throw on screen and you'll know right away several things? just a thought

Quick update on something I'm asked in my         group all the time. "Do I have to have an Edge Clear account to use EPX?"

In the past the answer was yes, and some forums I believe still have that. However, now you don't have to. Although I would suggest giving EC a serious consideration for your next or additional broker!

Anyway, just go to their site, or DM me for more instructions, and register for 14-day free trial, and then after you're hooked, simply subscribe for low $34.99/month.

Cheers!

Hi, I am currently testing out Edge Pro X and I am looking for some features that I either can't find or maybe don't exist currently. See below.

I prefer to trade RTH hours only so I'd like to only see price action from 9:30am-4pm on intraday and daily charts so gaps are visible. I was able to remove extended hours, but I am still getting the settlement period after 4pm which can throw off my RTH high, low, close indicators from the previous day. Is there a way to remove that on all time frames so I am seeing 9:30-4 only?

I currently have an ES 5min on my main screen and a daily chart on a side monitor linked in blue but linking doesn't seem to also sync drawings between them. Is there away to do this or can drawings only be in a single window where you have to switch time frames?

Thanks!

If you use Edge Pro X, can you use Motiwave indicator or template on Edge Pro X? or it's different?
Thanks

Hey there,

As far as I know, you can use a MotiveWave indicator or Template on EdgeProX. It is the same software with a few tweaks and costs about $15 less per month through Edge Clear.

@vacationforever,

That's worth asking -- both of these come up a lot with EdgeProX since it's built on the MotiveWave engine.

RTH Session (9:30-4:00 only)

The settlement period bleeding in is a session template issue. Go to Configure > Session Templates and either edit the existing ES template or create a custom one. Set the session start to 09:30 and end to exactly 16:00. The default exchange session includes the settlement window, which is why your RTH high/low/close indicators pick up that extra data. Once you apply the custom template to your charts, your indicators should reference the clean 9:30-16:00 window only.

Make sure you apply it to both your intraday and daily charts -- session templates are per-chart, not global.

Drawing Sync Across Timeframes

The blue symbol linking syncs the instrument but not drawings by default. I'm not 100% sure EdgeProX currently supports automatic drawing sync across different timeframe charts the way some platforms do. In MotiveWave-based platforms, drawings are typically chart-specific.

What I'd suggest: check the drawing properties panel -- right-click a drawing and look for any "visible on all timeframes" or "global" option. Some drawing types (especially horizontal lines) may have this. If it's not there, it may be a feature request worth raising directly with Edge Clear in this thread since FuturesTrader71 has been actively responding.

For now, the practical workaround most traders use is keeping key levels as horizontal lines on each chart individually, or using a single chart and switching timeframes via the toolbar.

NEVERMIND. Answered most of the things by reading the thread.


I'm looking to hop off Bookmap and also add footprints as I transition from Options back to Futures. I was looking at MotiveWave and then I saw EdgeproX.

I technically trade in tasty and TOS/Schwab (inside Roth IRAs). You say that data feed with Rithmic or CQC needs a funded account, but with who? Or do we even need a funded account for buy the feed?

Motive has Schwab listed as data feed, but not as broker.

Do you also have an option to trade inside Roth IRAs or only personal/corp/self directed?

TECHNICALLY Schwab does have API work around, but when I looked at it last year and it was sloppy. And tasty had something in the API front too.


Thank you so much!

Also, you seem to offer a good product. You need to make is sexy. Deepcharts is pretty close to a competitor and they are are hitting the promo hard. Like partnerships and affiliates with real traders. I was Daniel Inskeep kinda promoting you and then Bookmap is promoting the heck out of themselves. Need more affiliates!

@Lady,

That "funded account" language trips a lot of traders up when switching from options to futures.

When platforms say Rithmic or CQG requires a "funded account," they mean a live account at a futures broker -- not a prop firm evaluation account. Rithmic and CQG are professional data feeds bundled through your brokerage relationship rather than sold directly. So the path is: open a futures brokerage account, fund it, and the data feed comes through that broker.

For brokers supporting Rithmic: @NT Brokerage integrates directly with NinjaTrader and is a straightforward option. @Tradovate runs on CQG as their data backbone, covering ES, CL, RTY well.

On the Roth IRA + futures question: Worth asking EdgeClear directly in their thread -- they can give you the definitive answer there. Generally, Schwab/TD Ameritrade does permit futures trading inside IRAs with certain restrictions, but most dedicated futures brokers do not support IRAs. The fact that MotiveWave lists Schwab as a data feed but not a broker is an important distinction -- data feed just means price data routing, while your actual positions need to live at a broker that supports IRAs.

Also worth noting: since you are already on NinjaTrader, footprint chart capability is available natively or via add-ons before committing to a full platform switch.
