Hey Gang,

I was wondering if there were any Infinity AT users here?

I love the AT Platform. Its fast and stable, and I love the ease of use. I am curious what type of order entry strategy for trading the ES is used. I Enter at support or resistance and use a 4,8,12 tick exit with a 8 tick breakeven stop. Stop moves to breakeven after 5 ticks. This works OK for me, but I feel like I could be doing better. Any other ideas would be appreciated.

Again I wish Infinity had better charting options...

I hope Infinity Tom is listening.

What exactly is the wish list part? Just 'better charting'. I'll go out on a limb and say that they'd probably want more details than 'better charting'. Other than that, your post is dealing w/ specific trading strategy, which has nothing to do w/ the platform in question...

Better charting will require a different charting vendor. I think Infinity now uses Sierra charts? There is a huge population of Sierra chart users... though not my taste. It really depends on how much you are willing to spend on charting. If you are trying to keep costs low, then Sierra is perfect. If you do not mind spending close to $1k/month on charting, you will find alot more options.

BF,

What's your problem? I didn't crash your OEC thread so why not return the favor and play nice?

Also, I'm not addressing this post to Infinity I'm addressing this post to AT users on this forum, if there are any. If this doesn't apply to you then you should consider it none of your concern.

FYI the trading strategy has everything to do with AT as its a basic entry exit play.

Soultrader,

I know my options are Sierra, ensign on the low side and maybe esignal on the upper end. Just wish there was an option somewhere in between. I'm trying to get into market profile a little bit more. I appreciate the posts in the MP section of the forum.

Thanks

Best regards,

Hi TraderJean,

Just so you know esignal is considered on the lower end

tradestation charts are good also, simply put $5k into their account and pay around $200 for the platform. Have you tried IRT? Something you might want to try out as well.

Jean,
Your thread is a wishlist for a platform, yet the only wish is 'better charting'. There's nothing there to help anyone that might be reading this. You need to provide details if you want any help whatsover.

As for the trading strategy, it has nothing to do w/ AT. You are talking about how to exit a trade. That is not platform dependent. Do you just need the AT guys to develop a way to get you out at the optimal level?

As you've seen in my OEC thread, I ask users to give SPECIFIC details of what they'd like done. I cannot go to OEC and say 'make better charting'. That's a useless request to anyone. That accomplishes nothing. What does 'better charting' mean to you? I'm going to guess the guys at AT are not mind readers therefore they have no idea what you mean here.

If you can't provide details though, just leave it at 'better charting' and maybe they can guess what you mean and come up w/ something at some point in time. If not, you can come back and tell everyone that the guys at AT didn't listen to your request.

Didnt read the post carefully... but I can see why it was misleading. Not many platforms have implementation of order routing with the DOM and charts linked. Traderjean, if you want a charting platform that can link your stops and targets you are looking at spending some dollars on a high end platform like CQG.

BF... does OEC provide this function already? Traderjean, your entry/exit strategy should not have anything to do with the charting platform. If the AT can provide you with the order routing strategies... you are basically looking for a better charting/analysis tool. Am I on the right path here?
