Been trading for a few years. I have a fulltime job so right now just trading for the fun of it. Hopefully be able to trade full time some day soon. Looking forward to learning from this group here.
I have been learning about trading the last 5 years. However, I wasn't in a financial position to risk money until this year. Once I realized that I have a passion for trading, seeing patterns and a lot of self discipline I started shifting my entire life around just to get to the point of having no debt and a saved pool of money to start my trading. I opened my live account a few weeks ago so I can enjoy the live data steam on Tradingview. I haven't traded the account yet as I am still testing out my system. In several weeks, once I am crystal clear that I know my system inside and out and the best market conditions for it, I plan to start trading live. I am sure some people may understand that even though I haven't made any money trading yet the fact that I can participate without having the burden of "need" around trading is the biggest accomplishment I have achieved so far. I am so grateful to even be able to trade at this point. It's been a long journey to get here and I am looking forward to the next phase.
I have been a member of futures.io for almost a year now but haven't introduced myself. I felt I wasn't ready to participate in a community yet but now I feel it is the right time to start sharing my knowledge, learn more from others and hopefully help others from what I have learned.
Hello everybody.
I have been trading on-and-off for a while now, both futures (I have completed Amplify Trading's course) and spot forex, without much success. I am still learning and I hope to crack this game one day.
Question: for the ones who are familiar with CQG's charts, they have a few different continuation modes (rolling at contract expiration, rolling at volume traded, closing price equalization) each giving slightly different prices, especially closer to the present time.
That will pose a bit of an issue, when trading today on levels established a few years back. Can you please clear this up for me, as I think it would be nice to trade off levels everybody else looks at, as opposed to levels that only I think they are significant. This is where Amplify's training fell short, unfortunately.
I had a similar issue when I moved from spot forex to futures. I could not get the roll over of the contracts to do so in a way that made levels work. I ended up loading data fir each contract backtesting tgat then loading the next contract. I think this is what you were saying?
been on the forum for about 2 years, lurking around soaking knowledge.. I hail from Australia and currently living in Dubai / UAE. Mostly interested in futures and options on futures / equities.
