The components of EDI and related options

Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) has three major components. They are,
• Trading partners
• Translation software
• Communications

Trading partners: These are business organizations that agree to exchange business information, data and documents via EDI. Small, medium and large organizations that are involved in various types of business activities are part of this group. For partners that dare to trade options that are now being made available are endless.

Translation software: This software written in some of the most popular platforms regulates most of the operations. Some of its main features include,
1. It is dual purpose software and it converts files to or from an EDI format called a ‘document’

Better Volume Indicator and Tradestation

Hi guys,

I have an indicator for Ninjatrader called 'Better Volume Indicator' from emini watch. The original indicator is programmed for tradestation and the indicator I have is for Ninjatrader becasue NT is my preferred platform.

What I'm trying to do is confirm if my NT Better Volume indicator is doing it's job well so I like to ask the numerous tradestation guys on this forum if you have the indicator I mentioned. And if you do, do you mind posting yesterdays 10 minute GBPUSD EURUSD EURJPY charts for me to compare with mine.

Thank you,

Metatrader 4 Question

G'day guys,
I hope im putting this thread in the correct section..
I just wanted to ask all u mt4 users out there, how do u net lot positions?

For example, just say I buy 1 Lot and then 5 mins later I sell .5 lot, instead of having 2 trades open (1 buy and 1 sell), how can I net the positions so it just says appears as 1 trade showing .5lot long?

I know its possible cause Ive done it b4 but ive since forgotten.

The reason I ask this is that not having the ability to net positions is really confusing when u scale in, and it makes it hard when u want to close the positon cause u have to open up every trade manually and close them all.

any help would be appreciated guys!

The Normality Assumption and Fractal Nature of Asset Prices

The Normality Assumption and Fractal Nature of Asset Prices

Hi everyone, I’ve recently read the book “The (mis-)Behavior of Markets” by Benoit Mandelbrot. I found that some of his ideas matched the experience I have made so far. The key message of the book is that he basically says that all financial theory built so far on the assumption of a normal distribution are for the trash bin and we need a different approach. Especially his idea of “trading time” instead of “normal time” rang a bell in my head. Inspired by his 1963 study on cotton “The variation of certain speculative prices” I decided to test two assumptions myself on EUR/USD Forex rates:
