May-06-2024 usd$393.00 in profit - Rithmic data issues
No Overnight trades & no US economic data release. Low daily volume but the market movement was clear, Up with small retracements.
Before noon the CTTool010 was just trading with the price direction and collecting profit.
Then i started to get Telegram signals (i use the CTTTelegram bot to get alerts each 30 minutes) of connection/disconnection issues. When i returned to my desk (was out) i saw the NinjaTrader 8 terminal was disconnected.
In the NinjaTrader i have this setup to continue running any strategy on reconnections, and each minute to try to reconnect but for a reason i don't know the platform sometimes done get back the connection. Thats why i set a telegram alert, to know the profit/loss and when there is a connection issue or if i don't get telegram messages then it means something is wrong (local issue).
And this is very dangerous, so i switched to another desktop to make the connection (my development desktop) and closed all pending orders and current positions reducing the profit to only usd$60.00.
Back to my production/real time trading desktop and re enabled the CTTool010.
At the end of my trading day the price continued moving up allowing to finish in profit.
All have a great week!
