Do you remember when you were probably five or six years old and learning to ride your bicycle without
training wheels for the first time?

I can remember being so excited to get those training wheels off and be able to tear around the block
like the big kids. But part of me was probably a little bit scared, after all we have all seen some
pretty major wipe outs.

In the end though for most of us Mom and Dad help us learn to ride the bike. They guide us as we take
off for the first time, and cheer lead us as we take off for the first time. It’’s our first small step towards
freedom really – and it’s made a lot easier because you have help from Mom and Dad.

In a way you could almost say you have some bike riding mentors and cheer leaders.

Well, trading used to be the same way. When I was in Vegas last week for the Traders Expo I
got to talking to Bob Iaccino about how he came up. Bob’s been on the floor at the Chicago Mercantile
Exchange since 1992 and is a frequent quest on CNBC and other financial programs due to his success.

Well Bob told me that back then, before the advent of our Electronic Marketplace most people
becoming traders had easy access to very successful mentors. You usually started off as a clerk on
the floor, bringing in orders to the big brokers and traders, and if you had some hustle about you, usually
one of the successful traders would take an interest in you and start to show you the ropes.

Eventually you’d get into the pits yourself and trade 1 and 2 lots with an old pro showing you the ropes.
It really sounds like it was a great way to learn -and the overall rate of success was much higher then we
see now. It’s easy to see why, who wouldn’t want to learn from someone who had a proven track
record of making money in the markets week after week for a decade or more?

But things change, and now that trading apprentice type on the job training has, for the most part
been lost. Sure there is a ton of information on the web, a lot of people want to take your money
to teach you how to trade, but how in the heck are you supposed to know who’s worth listening
too? For the most part you just can’t tell, it’s maddening!

Well, this Tuesday your going to have a chance to sit at the knee of an old pro because Bob
Iaccino has decided it’s time for him to give back and pass on the knowledge that has been
shared with him.

Check out his complimentary “Over View Webinar  …

Bob’s been on the floor and making money from the market’s since 1992. He’s frequently a
guest on CNBC, Fox News and is quoted by the major financial media all the time. Most important
for you, he’s a great teacher who loves to pass on his knowledge of the markets. In fact, here
is what a few of his students have said about learning from Bob.

Bob I was one of those guys that spent way too much on courses that did nothing buy confuse me,
because of your course I really feel confident that I can look at charts and find profitable trades.  Do
you know how great of a feeling that is?  Thanks so much for caring!!

– Lance Malace

Not only are you informative, but you are just a great guy!  Anytime I have a question I know you will
answer it and not make me feel stupid for asking it.  I have learned a tremendous amount from you
and I really feel like I made a new friend at the same time.  BTW…I always watch your interviews on CNBC,
I enjoy the humor your throw in :)

– Nancy Ransert

Frankly I can’t wait for Bob’’s webinar, and I’m going to try to get one of the seats for myself. Bob’s
going to be passing on some of the most important money management rules he’s learned after 16
years as a professional. These are the secrets that keep you in the game, and allow you to leverage
your success for massive profits while never having to worry about losing too much money.

Bob’’s also going to teach you how you can make trading fit your lifestyle. You see, some people want
to trade full time, all day every day from 9 to 5, while others either don’t want to do that or they cant.

If your trading E Minis or Stocks, you pretty much have no choice about when your going to trade,
but if your a Forex Trader, the market never sleeps and you can work and trade when you want.
The trick is learning how to isolate your time frames. You see, too many traders have to adjust their
lifestyles around the markets. Bob’s going to teach you how to make the market fit your lifestyle so
you can do the things you want.

I have to warn you that seats are going to go fast. It is not very often that a recognized expert
like Bob so willingly shares nearly twenty years worth of knowledge with traders like us. So, if you
want to have the opportunity to learn from a proven pro , then you won’t want to miss this webinar.

The Dow, Dollar & Gold – What Goes Down Must Come Up

November 30, 2009 by admin  
Filed under Day Trading

Listen to this Post. Powered by iSpeech.org

This year has been a very exiting time for traders and investors. We have seen a steady climb in prices with controlled pullbacks in the broad market and gold.

Using technical analysis we are able to quickly and accurately make informed decisions just from looking at the charts. In the charts below you will see how simple chart patterns along with support & resistance levels can provide excellent low risk entry points. Also you will see how candle stick charts can be an early indicator for prices to reverse direction.

DIA ETF – Daily
The DIA (Dow Jones Index Fund) is trending higher. By applying some basic technical analysis you are able to time your entry points having the odds in your favor.

In this chart I use two simple forms of analysis. The broadening formation (red trend lines), and horizontal support zones shown in blue.

Broadening Formations: This is when the price becomes more volatile making higher highs and lower lows. I think of it as one of those Megaphones for talking to large groups of people. So when a chart has this pattern it’s virtually yelling at me and I start taking profits or tightening my stops.

Horizontal Support Zones:
I like to focus on support or resistance zones which are a little different than most traders. I do not use the top and bottoms of previous waves for these levels. Instead I take the average price then expect the support level to be penetrated somewhat as the level is tested. This is how the market keeps you out of the good trades. I cover this in great detail in my Stock Market Trading Education Course available in January.

Analysis:
The DIA ETF looks ready for a pullback to the $99- 100 level.

DIA ETF

GLD Exchange Traded Fund – Weekly
Gold has been on fire and riding this wave up has been very profitable thus far. Last week a doji candle was formed on the chart and this can signal a change in short term price action.

This chart shows some of the past doji candles and what happened to the price of gold soon after. What this candle is telling us is that the buying and selling pressure is equal. So we know momentum is slowing and we should expect a consolidation or correction.

Because gold has rocketed higher, indeed going almost straight up in the recent weeks, I expect a pullback to be very quick. A drop to the $110 or even the $100 level in the coming weeks is not out of the question, but we all know commodities can go parabolic for several months (straight up). This is why we continue to tighten our stops and keep holding out long positions.

Gold Exchange Traded Fund

US Dollar – Weekly
The US dollar has been up and down like a yo-yo in the past 15 months. The chart below clearly shows what has been happening with this currency and what I think we could see very soon.

The blue support zone (73-74) is a key pivot point for the dollar. That being said lets take a look at the chart.

During the time when the price is trending higher July 2008 – Feb 2009 we see lower wicks appear more often. This tells me that sellers pushed the price down early in the week but were then overcome by buyers nearer the end of the week. This is bullish price action. Also the broadening patterns during this timeframe’s tops indicate increased volatility and we know that is a sign of weakness.

From March 2009 – Sept 2009 the trend was down and there are longer upper wicks telling us buyers became over powered by sellers each time the price rallied.

In the recent 3 months we observe lower wicks meaning buyers are moving into the US dollar again. Knowing that there is major support below the current price I have to think the dollar could start to bottom around this level.

US Dollar Trading

Trading Conclusion:
The broad market is becoming unstable and looks like it could have more of a pullback this week. I would not be adding to any long positions until we see the market trading near support. Three out of four stocks move with the market so it is crucial to understand the overall market direction when buying and selling stocks and commodities.

Gold is trading at a level which is fuzzy. The weekly chart is neutral and the daily chart is still on fire as it moves up. All we can do is ride our positions and keep raising our stop prices.

The US dollar could start to bottom over the next few weeks. Depending what happens with Dubai this week we could be in for a big bounce in the dollar as investors flock to safety as the US dollar is still the currency of choice if/when other countries start to have a financial melt down again.

Forex Income Engine 2.0 Review

November 30, 2009 by admin  
Filed under Day Trading

Listen to this Post. Powered by iSpeech.org

Forex Income Engine 2.0 is a day trading course from Bill Poulos that provides you with 3 separate intraday trading methods. These methods can be used in any time frame so are therefore ideal for day traders, or people who only have a limited amount of time to trade every day.

I was lucky enough to receive a review copy of the Forex Income Engine 2.0 course prior to it’s official launch so let me give you my full review of this product:

Forex Income Engine 2.0 Course Contents

The course itself is a physical product that is delivered directly to your door. It consists of 7 CD-ROMs, full colour reference manuals in a 3-ring binder, trading blueprints that summarise each of the 3 trading methods and a quick start guide to get you up and running.

The 7 CD-ROMs are as follows:

- Bonus Module – Forex And Trading Basics (51 minutes)

- Module 1 – Background And Overview (39 minutes)

- Module 2 – Ignition Method (98 minutes)

- Module 3 – Overdrive Method (62 minutes)

- Module 4 – Spring Method (67 minutes)

- Module 5 – Forex Brokers, Charting Software And Trading Platforms (85 minutes)

- Module 6 – Bringing It All Together (46 minutes)

Trading Method 1 – Ignition Method

The Ignition Method is a simple trading method that targets short-term continuation trends. Trades typically last between 2 and 6 bars and the profit objective can be anywhere between 10 and 50 pips, depending on the time frame you are trading and the set-up conditions of the trade.

This method, just like the two methods below, employs a two-part exit strategy which helps you to maximise your profits, whilst using a strict stop loss policy to minimize your losses.

Trading Method 2 – Overdrive Method

The Overdrive Method is my favourite method because it’s gets you into a trade near the beginning of some of the strongest trends that occur throughout the day. Profit objectives are in the region of 25-100 pips (depending on which time frame you use) and I have to say that most of the time these objectives are fulfilled.

I’ve been testing this method out on various time frames from 5 minutes up to 30 minutes and my overall success rate is extremely high, particularly on the 15 minute and 30 minute charts where the trends are a lot stronger.

Trading Method 3 – Spring Method

The final method included in the Forex Income Engine 2.0 course is the Spring Method. This method looks for trend reversals and typical profit targets are again between 25 and 100 pips.

The problem with this method is that you don’t tend to get as many set-ups as the previous two methods. However from the limited amount of back-testing I’ve done on this method, it does nevertheless appear to generate some decent profits when set-ups do occur.

I don’t personally think I will be using this method as much as the previous two methods, but it’s certainly a set-up that you need to keep your eye on because as Bill points out in his course, when a Spring Method trend reversal is in progress, you obviously don’t want to be trading either of the other trend-following methods because they will usually fail.

As I’ve already said, these specific reversal patterns do not occur that often so most of the time you can concentrate on trading the Ignition Method and the Overdrive Method, which is what I’ve been doing.

Additional Modules

One thing I like about the Forex Income Engine 2.0 course is that as well as the 3 profitable trading methods, there are also modules covering risk management and discipline, which are two crucial elements of successful forex trading. Plus if you are a relatively inexperienced trader, there is also a bonus module that will teach you everything you need to know about forex trading. So this course really does cater for all traders, regardless of their experience.

Learning The Methods

The methods themselves are relatively straight forward. They all use the same 4 technical indicators and these indicators are commonly found in any charting platform.

Each method is explained in great detail and is demonstrated numerous times using lots of different examples of live trades. However I personally had to watch each video about four or five times before I became fully familiar with the intricacies of each method. It’s the little things like learning where to place your stops, and where to move your stops as trades move in your favour that take the most time to learn.

If you do buy the course, however, you do have an advantage because you are given trading blueprints of each individual method which you can keep next to your computer for easy reference. (I didn’t have this luxury when I received a review copy of this course which is probably why it took longer to learn each method).

How Profitable Are The Forex Income Engine Methods?

I’ve now had time to test out all of the methods and overall the success rate seems to be very high for each of the methods, and best of all they do genuinely seem to be profitable on all the intraday time frames (although I find the 15 minute time frame to be the most profitable).

It’s obvious to me that each of these methods has been tested over and over again because the stop losses and exit points have clearly been designed to extract maximum profits from each and every trade.

In my experience the Overdrive Method is the one with the highest success rate and is easily my favourite method of the three. I’ve been trading this method on the 15 minute charts of the GBP/USD, EUR/USD and USD/JPY pairs and I’ve been experiencing a winning ratio of over 90% in the last week or so. After a while you get to know which set-ups are most likely to be profitable so it almost becomes second nature.

The Ignition Method isn’t quite as reliable, particularly on the shorter time frames, but nevertheless it can still boast a success rate of around 60% in my experience, and even higher if you use the 15 minute chart or above. Therefore it’s still very profitable because you have to remember that the profitable trades will more than compensate for any losses that you may incur because of the two part exit strategy that is employed. Therefore this method still has the potential to increase your account in the long run and I will certainly be continuing to use it on the 15 minute charts.

The Spring Method also appears to be profitable but I haven’t tested it out that much to be honest. You wouldn’t want to be trading this method in isolation because there are very few set-ups that meet the criteria, but to be fair the price does seem to reverse nicely, and therefore generate some decent returns, on the rare occasions when these conditions are met.

Final Comments On The Forex Income Engine 2.0 Course

I’ve always been slightly critical about day trading because I’ve never found any trading methods that have been able to generate consistent returns on these shorter time frames. However I have to say that Forex Income Engine 2.0 is easily the best day trading course I’ve ever come across because the methods themselves, particularly the Overdrive and Ignition Methods, are actually profitable.

What I like about these systems is there is a clear logic behind them. Any losses you incur are kept small whilst the winning trades employ a two part exit strategy, just like I do with my 4 hour trading strategy, in that half the position is closed for a small profit, and the second half of the position is left to run until it’s conclusion, and essentially becomes a free position because you will have moved the stop loss up to break-even by this point.

Another reason why I’m a big fan of this course is that the methods themselves can be used throughout the day if you so wish because they trade a variety of different trading conditions. For example you can use the Overdrive Method to get you into a trade at the start of any strong trends, then you can use the Ignition Method to trade any continuation trends that may occur after a brief pull-back. Finally if the right conditions are met you can then use the Spring Method to trade any trend reversals.

So overall I can highly recommend the Forex Income Engine 2.0 course. It’s not cheap by any means but I think that in this case the price really does reflect the quality of the product. You are paying for 3 profitable day trading methods that you can use for the rest of your life, so in the long run it could easily turn out to be a fantastic investment.

If you’re not entirely satisfied with the product you can always return it within 90 days and receive a full refund, but if you take the time to go through all of the materials and learn each of the methods, I really don’t think you will want to return the product.

Anyway I think I’m ready to wrap up this review now. I didn’t intend it to be this long but I really am very enthusiastic about this course and wanted to get across all of the main points.

If you do have any questions about the course you are given unlimited email support for a year after purchasing the course and if you buy the course from the link below, I will be happy to assist you myself as well via email because I’m now using these methods myself on a daily basis.

What is Oil Trading. (beginner)

November 29, 2009 by admin  
Filed under Day Trading

Listen to this Post. Powered by iSpeech.org

Oil Trading is exactly the same thing as Forex trading, stock indices, or otherwise. Trading, as opposed to the sale of shares, gives two big advantages. The first is that we can take advantage of falling prices and rising prices by selling rather than buying. The second is “leverage”, which gives us the opportunity to purchase large quantities efficiently with only a small amount. So that we can make a reasonable profit from a small step up or down in price pocket. Of course this is potentially risky, but we should be an automatic “stop-loss” to act near the price to go against us with a fixed amount. We have also filled in an automatic “limit” to trade with a series win.

Many forex brokers also allows you to oil trade, is the creation of an account without problems. Forex is traded primarily on the MetaTrader 4 platform and realize that this often without oil man. In fact, most MetaTrader all sorts of additional instruments, which often shares and sometimes the DOW. Revealing this, you right-click the Market Watch window (which must show the currency pair is displayed) and click on “All”.

We get our signals from a free, perpetual demo version of MetaTrader, but it can really bring closure anywhere, including spread betting. The level of demand from you is from broker to broker, but most are mini contracts trade and just need a couple of hundred dollars in your account. The real risk is even lower than that because we are one stop by 90 pips (EUR 0.90) to go on the price of oil. MetaTrader shows the daily spot price “for oil and both spot price and oil” futures price “available for use depending on the broker. Forward price is simply a calculated price of oil for delivery at a specific time in the near future. It makes no real difference for our trading partners.

Here’s how a typical trade works. We see that the advertised price from 81.50 to 81.56, it means that we will buy oil at 81.56 and selling at 81.50 – the difference in prices for the benefit agent. We have a sell signal on our table, so we sell, contract, or $ 0.1 1 (or £ 1) is a beep. Now is a “beep” is the smallest motion to go in this case 0,01 or a crown. While we have a stop loss at 82.40 (90 pips down to the “wrong” direction, because we want to sell and the prices are going down) and take a profit of 80.00 (150 pips in the expected direction). Then we wait and see what ten five hours before, on average.

But the TCCI will change color, we (manually close the trade, even if you leave it like that, and you wait for stop or limit being beaten). Normally we take the limit and the trade is closed automatically by the software and $ 150 deposit on our account. Of course, we act ideal for much more – $ 10 a beep or higher. For example, would trade with a full agreement to result in a $ 1500 profit, which is quite realistic and not lead to the poor have few hours of “work”!

Getting start Oil Trading with Oil Trading Guide!
