Thanks for the help. Looks like there is lots of videos on marketdelta.com and a long post or two at elitetrader. I'll try to get to them this weekend. Here are some of the links for others who might be interested. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?threadid=78053&perpage=6&pagenumber=1 http://www.marketdelta.com/recordings.aspx Jeff

Blu-Ray, I've not tried that. It's an interesting idea. Are you saying the volume divergence is similar enough that developing my system under this would be worth a shot? If so, that's a great idea. Thanks for the idea. I'm going to look into that. Jeff

Sound much better. In my humble opinion you only need to make a few trades a day to make money. I would explore setups on a larger timeframe and/or be much more selective in which trades you take.

The indicator appears to hold potential as a possible entry signal. However, since it requires live data I'm having a heck of a time testing it. Currently I have a very basic system in order for me to get the feel of how the indicator works with live data. My setup is this: 5-minute chart of YM When Delta Divergence fires go Long/Short on next bar at market Set Target of 25 points Set Stop of 30. Only trade during 8:30 - 14:30 (central) I started testing this about a week ago and looks like it has potential. Obviously there will need to be changes and a lot more testing. Thus to help speed this up I was wondering if anyone else had some ideas on using Delta Divergence as part of a trading system? Or maybe you just have an idea such as a filter to exclude signals. Anyway, would love to hear some thoughts on using Delta Divergence. Thanks all. Jeff

I've been only trading futures (YM) for 2.5 months now. Like you I wanted to focus in on a specific market instead of chasing so many stocks. So far, I really enjoy it. 1) I think most trade the current contract, which is YMH08. No, there is no time decay like options. 2) YM is like any market. It's liquid and thus, tradable. So you can use whatever setup you like. 3) I use TradeStation just because they seemed to be most popular and I wanted access to the largest community so TS seemed the way to go. TS has limitations so do some homework. I'm sure other people can point you in the right direction.

I found the link to the TTM webinar on Market Delta: Trevor Harnett's Market Delta Webinar Recording

Yeah, thanks blu ray. Looking forward to seeing your results. Can anyone provide information or a link to the conceptual premise behind this indicator and how it might be used? I'm looking at the attached jpg files and it's not clear to me what's going on. I think the guys over at TTM did a free seminar on "market delta" this week which seems very similar to this indicator. Does anyone have the link to the recording? Thanks.
