Just went to sign up and realised I won't be able to attend due to prior commitment.

Do you think they will make a replay of this webinar available at another time MMS?

I would really appreciate that.

Cheers

We should be able to make it available, but it'll be confirmed at a later date.

Thank you Mysticforex, and traders Laboratory. I just checked the recording - almost 70 minutes - so will reserve the
weekend for viewing this. I was pleased to read the comment by NinjaTrader_Staff in the thread:

http://www.traderslaboratory.com/for...tml#post114880 ... post #10:

Depending on your requirements, NinjaTrader is free if all you need is market analysis. If you want to trade,
we charge you. We support a number of different feeds including CQG (mentioned earlier in this thread) plus our
own brand, Kinetick.

I am hoping that NT charting will be superior to my MT4 set up, otherwise I see little point moving from the familiar
to the unfamiliar. It will need to provide an additional edge to what I am already doing.

I am at the stage where I am fast losing interest in trading generally speaking. I am weary of the constant struggle
to evolve with the changes. It seems that as soon as I begin to master the beast, it develops a new feature.
Seven years ago we didn't have the intervention of algorithmic trading and high frequency trading and so on ...
at least not to the extent we have today.

I am asking a serious question here, but a very simple one ... "Is it worth it?"

I think I have just wasted 7 years - the proverbial "7 years bad luck!"

My goal when I began trading was to ease from shift work to an income replacement situation. I never planned for
a Ferarri or a condominium in the French Riviera, with a private jet to whisk me there at will! It was a matter of
provision for a Baby-Boomer retirement that was never going to be delivered by the government.

Having reached break-even or a little better at times (the lines are still blurred) I am wondering if trading is really
ever going to deliver on the promise, or I will still be mired down in some kind of struggle to exploit my edge
for the next 5 years?

I watch these kinds of Webinars to see if somehow I can gain a critical tweak.

But nothing can change the events that have rocked the CHF and JPY pairs over the past 24 hours. How can traders
hope to compete in these conditions? Will a good trading/charting software package make any difference?

Here I am attempting to move away from the 15Min / 1H trades to 4H and Daily, but it gets destroyed in one session,
and stops are triggered. These are not the markets I began trading 7 years ago, with nice identifiable trends.

This is just sentimental and speculative chop, dredged up by frightened traders who drive trends north ... then south ...
then north again, without rhyme nor reason. Technically I am attempting to trade what I am seeing, not what my personal
bias tells me. Consequently I am attempting to follow Price Action and a couple of "tuner" indicators.

It is all turning to ashes and trash in front of my eyes. How can anyone follow this mess? I am serious when I lament
the loss of the longer trends we once saw.

You can't trade the trash ... the wheels are falling off.

Will NinjaTrader software make any difference to that?

We shall see.

I use NT and MT4, and I much prefer NT to MT4...just one person's perspective...

Depends on your perspective, I suppose...for me, I've been immensely enjoying the action on the JPY since the quake...big swings, large range, etc.

I decided to watch the recording of the webinar since I use NT myself...it's so funny...I've been really annoyed that you "can't" move the data up and down...sure you can move it side to side, compress/decompress it vertically and horizontally, but I didn't think you could move it up and down....I learned via this webinar that you simply hold down control and move the vertical scale up and down!! LOL It's always annoyed me that I couldn't do that but I guess not enough to try to find out how to do it...but now I know! Thanks!
