Attention!

bandler6 · 05-09-2008, 12:09 PM

This would be the best of all worlds - eSignal & MBT w/NT, but if I use MBT as the primary, Esignal (as the back up) doesn't seem to provide data (as there is no historical backfill available). If i set eSignal as the primary and MBT as the back up, there does not seem to be any acct relationship with MBT. In either setup, my system hangs up very quickly (might need more horsepower), especially with Tick data.

I am also using MTPredictor

with NT 6.5

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated as I love the NT environment and I want to make this work harmoniously.

TIA

David

Dierk,

First, thanks for the quick response.
Second, eSignal as the primary works fine, but my goal is to still be able to trade through the chart to/with MBTrading, and that's where I seem to have lost my way.

TIA
David

No problem. Your trades will be routed to MBT.

(Please excuse my ignorance), will the connection to MBT appear as an account option (as opposed to just Sim101 etc) when I initiate a live trading key?

As always TIA

Hi David,

This is correct your live trading account will be accessable from the account drop down menu once you go live.

Bandler6, are you using the MTPredictor Ninjatrader add-on or the full blown MTPredictor?

Just found out they offer the add-on and did a search here to see if others like it.

I am upgrading this morning to "live" usage with NT. As far as MTPredictor, I use the plug-in for NT and I love it. Really helps with spotting setups that work for me. I have been paper trading with MTP and NT for a few weeks now. I have been following my trading plan (with the occasional aberration to see if some setups might work...sometimes they do, sometimes they don't...but it does help to confirm my ideas) and I have been consistantly profitable on a weekly basis. Now it is time to put theory into practice.
