  1. patrick,

    TY you for following the journey of an idiot like me. You probably deal with many users with the same questions. I was much more active in the community when I was a CTA and made many friends who were surprisingly in high places (you would be surprised who reads ET). Anyways I am discovering many have left trading with the advent of Dodd-Frank or have died. I thought I had more "active friends" than I do. So your it! Please don't die or quit until I lose all my money.

    Where do I get the individual running totals of #6
    Where do I get the individual running totals of #8

    And how do you get that VAP to look like that with the two colors? I just get one gray bar in Demo.

    Also do you have a playback mode?

    I want to post some screenshots in a thread I am about to start with some examples of how to trade from the DOM without using charts...can you imagine folks? NO CHARTS! Pancakes for breakfast this morning Great! (I am a little fat)

  2. For the colored VAP bars you'll find that on the right click context menu under VAP > Show Bid/Ask Volume. This video walks through the features well. http://library.tradingtechnologies.com/trade/video-mdt-md-trader-overview.html
    We have new things too like users can now show separate columns in MD Trader to show working bids and asks. You may also show your CXL working bids and ask buttons on the bottom of their columns instead of on the left side order column.
    No, we don't have playback at this time.

  3. Folks,

    To get the VAP multicolor the direct answer is to right click on a price in the price bar (#7).
    Watching the video now...

    Where do I get the individual running totals of #6
    Where do I get the individual running totals of #8

    I need the floating total of all of the values in #6 and #8.

  4. If this tread still is abut scalping i am a scalper with a winratio on 76% take 1-3 pips profit and 2-3 points stoploss so i end up at the same winratio for pips than for losses almost but win around 3 and lose one i use a support/ress system on 3 min.chart bounces of SMA`s EMA`s and following shortterm trend also bollinger bands in confluence with EMA`s SMA`s for reversals its not magic...

  5. Anybody?

    Where do I get the running totals of #6
    Where do I get the running totals of #8

    I need the floating total of all of the values in #6 and #8 listed in separate fields.

    P.S. I realize that a lot of those are fake...but I want to know which direction the fake is weighted. ES is controlled by programs and little scalpers like me are only allowed to know so much. I feel these totals might be of some value but I need to test. Beat those F&*#ers at their own game. I have done it before and I will do it again. I got banned at FXCM before they went bust...but I would have to be in the hundreds of millions to even get noticed at CME or wherever. Should be the other way around though as currencies are a much larger market. HFT's are getting away with manipulated murder in the first degree IMHO. No I am not in the "Old Boys" club and do not wish to be.

  6. I can get TT through AMP at $50.00/mo. But I cannot get the symbols to load in TT for FESX, FGBL, FGBM, FGBS, & FDAX. Why is that?

  7. Are you in demo / simulation? Eurex does not provide comp prices for simulation. CME does for 30 days.

  8. ok that explains it..TY for your patience. Am I to assume there are not any totals available for #6 and #8?

    That stackable tab thingy in mdtrader is a great real estate saver...Nice feature!

  9. ?? How did you even test it when the author didn't even give out the method? He only wrote about the market volatility to avoid (hour of day, below .5 etc.). Really curious "what" you tested.
