Estimated Place In Queue (EPIQ)

[NinjaTrader_Brett]

Hello,

Welcome to the NinjaTrader Support forums!

There has not been any update to this tracking ID unfortunately. Almost all updates will to all tracking ID's will be done once we release our next major version of NinjaTrader which is currently under development and I do not have a release date for yet.

Hi Brett/ Ryan,
Was curious about the EPIQ for NT.
Was there any update on tracking ID # 1468.

Thanks

Thanks I will look thru it. Actually now I recall that I may have pulled it out of one of the old threads not where the indicators were.

We have archived some of these older indicators here:

Sorry don't have it anymore. I was wondering if you guys still had the old NT 6 Indicators from the old file sharing page and if there was an EPIQ type indicator among them.

cre8it8,

Feel free to post what you have and a community member may take you up on converting. You can also always consider a NinjaScript consultant:

I thought I used to use an EPIQ that was in the Ninjascript File Sharing for Ninjatrader 6. Any way we can get that back and convert it to NT 7? It is very nice data to have.

The only DOM trader that I know of that has this feature is X-Trader, and I have searched and not seen it patented, but I may be wrong. After all, a column of numbers displayed like a spreadsheet has been patented by those same folks, which is why the Static DOM costs extra to trade off of.

What I am requesting is whether it might be possible for NT to add that to the DOM (preferably, the Dynamic DOM).

Here is a blurb about it from another web site.

... “EPIQ” column. This will allow you to see your position in line. It stands for "estimated position in the queue". ... So if there are 1,000 contracts bid and I'm bidding for a 20 lot, the screen will show me where I am in that 1,000. This can be very helpful at times. If it's a sketchy situation and I'm not sure what I want to do and I'm number 950 in the cue, I may pull my order. But if I'm number 20 in the cue, I will leave it there."

Great idea. There are too many times when I have had to exit at market just because my limit price was hit many times and not filled, only to see the market tick immediately above my original exit, which would have taken me out at limit. Sometimes, I have even just hit the "Close" button, and taken the slippage, no matter how large. If I knew that I was number 20 in a 1000 queue, I might be able to hold for a bit longer, whereas at number 960, I probably would not.
