Level 2 begginer

[azunal]

Hello,

Because I already handle level 1 I am very interested in learning to understand/programme and trade in Level 2. I have no idea how to start and I would like any piece of information about:

- What is level 2 and how it Works?.
- How to chart level 2.
- How to buil indicators in NINJATRADER.
- How to programme strategies in NINJATRADER.

I know those points are rather ambiguos but any information about BOOKS (specially), blogs, Ninjatrader help guide, examples, YouTube videos and so on will be very welcome. Of course, let me know if Ninja has any level 2 book or guide or other thread already open about level 2..

Thanks in advance,

Fernando

Hi Patrick,

Thanks a lot, it is more than expected. I alreay programme my own strategies for futures using charts and regular indicators. I think this is what you called "level 1".
Does it help to programme in level 2?.

I mean, it is the same way in Nintrajader to create / programme a script in level 2 than in level 1?.

Thanks again,

Fernando

Hello Fernando,

Thank you for your response.

Not much different other than the different methods and functions used. But it is still basically data you are calculating.
