  1. Correct. It's a custom indicator I had created for that purpose. For minute charts I'm sure there is something off the shelf or in the Ninjatrader Eco System which can work.

    You're very welcome. I stumbled upon it by chance myself from lurking on Twitter. One single account isn't that attractive to me, but 5 accounts makes it more interesting. I just trade it like it's one single account and don't pay any attention to the others. I mostly stopped using limit orders for entries as it once happened that I had a great day in my main account and by the end of the day I realized I hadn't got filled on my other accounts (which were at a loss for the day). So, keep that in mind.

    As for leverage, I would never use 15 contracts on a funded account except for the rare times where I could add to a winner. It have not happened so far. My absolute maximum all in entry is 5 contracts and even that is pushing it. My biggest day so far was $81K in total and for that trade I only had on 3 contracts. I don't expect to repeat that day anytime soon as I figure it was a combination of both luck and very good ranges at the time.

    Good luck and feel free to keep us posted on your progress. :)

  3. Election doesn't matter for the market. Stocks only go up no matter what. Anyways you had the fake "bearish" candle on the Q's so of course they gap it up. LMAO this market can't be defeated no matter what.

  4. You're mixing up trading and investing and start sounding like a broken record at this point.

    There's no such thing as a 'fake' move. If you bought the top on Friday as a trader, you lost money. Period. If you used a lot of leverage, you could even have blown your account.

    Your comments would have a lot more color if there was an actual entry and exit point once in a while. That's what's required to make money.
