Today was contract rollover and surprisingly enough, it was a one and done day! The first two trades of the day gave us our opportunity to make our point and walk away! The first trade was a quick EET followed up by a beautiful NSE coming out of no zone. The Tick Trader system provided ample opportunity to earn a daily income and call it a day!
The YM, however, was another story. It inherently has lower volume that the ES and accordingly, the June contract didn’t provide enough tick data for our indicator(s) to plot appropriately and we therefore decided to stay out for the day.
In today’s featured video we are short the Dow Emini (YM)Market going for a 10/15 target(s). We hit our first target, come within 2 ticks of our 2nd target. Of course we move our stop into “the money” and end up making full target on 2/3rds of the trade and a small gain on the remaining.
I had a family emergency yesterday and I was unable to post a blog with more details. Yesterday we had very low volume and volatility and we did not have a “One and Done”. It took until 3 PM to make our daily income. That’s ok. We have plenty of days our Emini system makes money in the first few minutes!
Today was also a bit longer – didn’t finish up until noon today. Had a few losers, then we caught a 3 point winner on the EET and then one more EET for 5 ticks!
So all and all it’s been pretty good.
I will be leaving town Thursday and Friday and will not be trading.
I will put up the blogs when I can.
Remember that we are taking our Dow system down next week. Please contact us if you have any questions. We are available!
As promised, all week we are posting DOW emini trading videos.
In the one featured below we are day trading the long term Dow Emini Chart. Same concept as always but higher profit targets! We take 2/3rds off at 25 contracts and stretch 1/3 out for more profit, utilize a stop loss that we manually bring down. We make 25 ticks on 2 contracts then drag our stop loss down in the money. We do this because the dow Emini market really can make some big moves. It’s nice to take 25 ticks, but if you can let some ride out for 35+ ticks you can make a great trading day! However, in this trade our last portion of the trade stopped out for a profit. Great trades!
Low volume day trading today and lost 4 straight, but recovered in full nicely! Will post more tomorrow as I had to take care of some personal matters. In the meantime and as usual, I have posted a video below for your viewing pleasure. I will see you in the trading room tomorrow!
Video: A Dow Trading Video where we trade off the short term chart and scale 2/3 of our position off at 10 ticks (daily income!) and the remaining 1/3 off at 20 ticks. We hit our 1st target, and end up breaking even on the last position. A profitable trade, on a partial and we break even on the rest!
For all those who’ve expressed an interest, just a reminder that we are taking our Dow system down next week. Please contact us soon if you need any questions answered. Note: All this week we will be showing videos of our Dow Emini trades.
We had a nice one and done day today with our Emini trading system! Very nice. Volume is very low and the volatility is right there with the volume. Days like this we like one and done.
I believe there is so much uncertainty with this government that traders are simply staying in cash! I don’t blame them. However, as day traders, we must forge ahead and trade for income. And we did just that today!
With the Dow/Advanced series coming down this week, I will post Dow Emini Videos all week.
In our video below we are trading the short term dow Emini chart. We take 2/3rd of our trade off at 10 ticks profit, drag our stop loss up and end up getting stopped out on the remaining contract. Still a profitable trade!
I would like to thank everyone for coming to last night’s webinar! We had a great time presenting it and we had a lot of good feedback. The webinar was recorded so you can view it for the next week. It will come down next week as the promos and the Dow / Advanced Video Series will no longer be available. Be sure to email us if you’d like to see the webinar. We did show our trading statements in this webinar as well as a live video trading the dow. In fact you can see that video just below this blog post. I must caution you though – I recorded this video (the live Dow below this blog post) when I was in my trading room. I went back to edit out the “dead time” and add a voice over. I normally do not do voice-overs but I was in my room and I wanted to catch the trade on video for the webinar attendees. In any event, I made an error and the edited part did not get edited! So my voice-over will not match up with the video. The trade was traded live, as you can see on the video – just the voice is messed up. Sorry in advance.
Well what a great week we had! Considering the low volume we’ve seen in the Emini markets, and all markets, it was still a great week for our day trading systems! Our Emini s&p system had one and done trades all week. I unfortunately did not personally get a one and done every day this week, but a lot of my students did. I’ll go more into depth in the Weekly Video Update below.
We do all of our videos in Hi-Def now so I had to cut this video short a bit too not the best week for my videos. Good thing I can trade.
I’ve also received a lot of emails regarding the fact that I posted trading statements and the 50 or so videos I have on this blog. I reiterate that I KNOW you have a lot of options for day trading education. There is a ton of Emini systems out there. We do our best to help you by showing trading statements, and most of all showing real trades recorded live on a real trading account. I mean, who else is doing that?
Hi everyone! We had a great day using our day trading system. We had a “One and Done” on the S&P as well as a great trade using our Dow Emini Strategies. As most of you know the Dow Strategy is permanently coming off the market.
Therefore we are holding a webinar this evening where I will discuss my Tick Trader Day Trading Course and the soon to be discontinued Dow Emini System.
I’ll be showing February’s Trading Statement on the trading account that I use to produce training and blog videos! Normally I don’t do this, but I am making this one exception as I know a lot of you want to see some real results.
I am even taking it one step further – I recorded my Dow Emini Trade TODAY and I am posting it.(watch video BELOW) I feel it’s very important that if you are going to purchase a trading system, or attend a day trading school – you should see the system work!
The videos we put up everyday are obviously recorded, but they are recorded LIVE and they are on a REAL trading account. Not a simulated account. Not many “system-sellers” do this!
Most day trading systems don’t pull products down! We do, WHY? Because our trading system(s) work. Not trying to be blunt. However we go the extra mile with our service and support with all our students. We go the extra mile with YOU the potential customer by showing you the “real deal” by showing you real trades on real trading accounts. Why oh WHY are we taking the Dow System down? A couple reasons – 1) I have to personally support everyone. I do it every single day. I love it. I enjoy meeting and talking with my students and I love it when students do well. However I can not continue supporting 2 systems, it is simply too much for me. 2) We are starting our dissemination of trading signals on the Dow Eminis in the very near future and we have had a lot of requests from subscribers of that service to no longer sell the system we use for the dissemination system.
Remember this though – just because you see a trading statement or you see 50 videos of live trading does not guarantee YOU will be a successful day trader. We love day trading! We couldn’t do anything else. However a successful day trader is a very goal oriented, disciplined person. Not everyone can do it. That’s one of the reasons I do NOT like showing statements as a potential client feels that if there is a statement showing profit that “it must work”. Well the Tick Trader System DOES work regardless of what trading statements show! YOU must make it work for YOU.
Learning to day trade for a living is difficult, frustrating, and really is not for everyone. Not sure how many “system-sellers” will tell you that one either. Regardless though, it’s fact.
Can you be a successful day trader? I don’t know. I can teach you my methods, I can support you, I can help you any way I can. You must be the one to follow the rules, stay disciplined and make it happen!
We hope you make it to the webinar this evening if you have any questions about our day trading education. Feel free to email us if you need the registration link.
And here is the Emini video recorded TODAY March 4, 2010.
We had a couple nice one and done trades today. Our first NSE trade was a winner, however some did not get filled at the target price and we ended up breaking even. We then had an EET trade set up that was a 8 Tick winner and another NSE winner! All within 30 minutes.
In our featured video we day trade the dow Emini markets with a smaller target because we are going short against the long term chart which is long. We look for a quick scalp which can turn out to be some nice little income trades! Enjoy!
Cheers!
ETS
ps: We have the webinar tomorrow Thursday, March 4 so if you are interested, please email us to register. You can view the details for the webinar here.
The dow Emini system did very well today. Some students we’re up over 40 ticks in just the first hour of the day. So very nice on the Emini dow.
The Emini system trading the s&p did well, but it did not have a “One and Done” we started with a couple losers and followed up with some nice recovery trades and made our profit! Normally we are done trading the Emini S&P in 10 – 30 minutes a day, however today it was about 90 minutes.
In the scheme of things, that’s a pretty good work week when you add it all up! I love to day trade and I love teaching. Learning to day trade for a living is a skill, and does take time. Once mastered, the opportunity is there!
Feel free to ask us any questions you may have about our day trading education!
And don’t forget about our webinar this Thursday, March 4 where we discuss our Dow/Advanced Series (which has a documented student success rate of 92 %) which is coming off the market in just a couple short weeks. We’ll be showing some “real proof” by show our monthly statement for our secondary trading account, the very one use to produce the training videos and public videos! So don’t forget to sign up. Please email us to register. Check out the RED email button to the right. Or, just here click for more info!
Our featured video for the day illustrates one of my favorite day trading strategies that I love to use and love to teach. Here is the EET when we are coming out of No Zone. No Zone is a time when we are expecting some sideways, or choppy market action. Therefore we avoid our NSE trades until the rules tell us they are higher probability trades again. After No Zone, the first NSE is normally a great day trade! However, I like to take the Early Entry Technique as it gets me in the trade early! Normally this trade already has 4 – 6 ticks profit, BEFORE the NSE even happens, which allows you to grab even more profit. Here’s a nice example!
If you’ve been contemplating day trading for awhile, or have been checking out our site, you may want to sign up for our free webinar that is scheduled on Thursday March 4, 2010. In this webinar we will show this previous month’s trading statement!! We realize a lot of you are skeptical as there are so many options available for day trading education. We want you to know that we really do trade, and not just on “sim”. That’s why we have literally dozens of live day trading videos on our blog and all over the web that show us day trading on a real day trading account. What more could you ask for?
We normally are reluctant to show trading statements as they are not a guarantee in any way that you will be a successful trader. Day Trading for a living is indeed, an awesome way to make a living. It takes work though. Looking at statements, or even videos, will not guarantee anyone will be a successful day trader. If you are committed to learning, have the discipline to follow the rules, then day trading may be for you.
There are a ton of day trading educational websites, and “system-sellers”. The common question or concern is “Do these guys really trade, or do they just make their money selling systems”. I can’t speak for every day trading company out there, but I know for a fact there are a lot of good trading strategies out there! I believe our day trading course is exceptional as it works, and our support is second to none.
Therefore, we have decided to go ahead and show our monthly statement in this webinar. We use a secondary trading account that we use to produce training videos and public videos (some of which you’ve already seen on this blog). Again, we feel it’s sufficient proof alone in these videos that we really are traders, and not just “system sellers” – the trading statement will back up what you see in our videos.
We are not doing this to satisfy the skeptics. To be honest, if you feel we are not traders, or we are a “scam” – simply move along and we wish you nothing but the best in all your trading endeavors. We are doing this webinar because our Dow/Advanced Series (which has a documented student success rate of 92 %) is coming off the market in just a couple short weeks and we realize you want to see “real proof” – so we are doing all of this in the webinar.
Feel free to browse our site to learn more about our day trading concepts. If you would like to register for this very rare webinar, please email us and we’ll send you the registration link.
Today we had a “One and Done” on our EET and Pullback trades. Many students we’re done quite early today.
The first NSE today was a loser (that was my first trade) so I had to recover. I took a couple losers, coupla winners and ended the day up 6 ticks within the first hour of the day.
I also had a nice Dow Emini Trade that I grabbed 30 ticks off of – and I caught it on video!!
Below you will find 2 videos. The first is the Weekly Video Update. The Weekly Video update is all about the Dow Emini Strategy this week as we are pulling that from the market in the next couple weeks and we’ve had a lot of requests for more information.
This next video is the trade I did today. I was in my trading room so I was only able to record it. It was about 20 minutes long, so I had to edit it and add a “voice-over”. This is a real trade, real trading account – I just had to add an audio voice over after the fact.
I did this video also based on all the requests we’ve received.
not the best week for my videos. Good thing I can trade.
