MP on the cheap

i'm totally confused now. i found this board from searching for alternatives to MarketDelta - See Inside the Chart â„¢

the easylang MP stuff i found on the TS boards and here made me think i was on the cheap but...

then in one of soultraders videos he mentioned 3rd party data above the tradestation market profile stuff?

question...whats the cheapest per month 3rd party wise you can have proper market profile data to trade YM/ES on using tradestation?

i'm still a novice with MP, have never traded YM/ES but i can't see trading YM/ES without it already.

Cheapest solution is Sierra Charts with market profile. eSignal is reasonable also since you will receive 1 month free to begin with. (check the banner)

Check out Ensign. Their charting comes with MP, and their monthly rates are not that bad.

Ensign doesn't come with MP. It comes with a horizontal price and volume histogram together with POC, VAH and VAL but not with a TPO chart.

They should have a MP package with TPO's. I've used it in the past.

We're talking Ensign here, not eSignal. I subscribed fairly recently and didn't find any TPO package.

Re: MP on the cheap

thanks guys.
i guess what i'm still confused about is what is the 3rd party data used for that the tradestation market profile indicator is lacking? is the data something that is input into the TS MP?
I'm a bit early with this question as i still have to read mind over markets and actually move to tradestation yet.

Re: MP on the cheap

There is no "MP data". You just need a normal data feed. Do your reading and it will all become clear.
