"Saturday Seminars" - Bonds and Other Futures, Equities and Cash Markets — A Master Trading Plan

Posted on by lindsay

You will learn several short-term trading techniques including three new trading signals, IDR (Inside Day Reversal), LMI (Leading Momentum Indicator) and TBS (Third Bar Signal), through the use of a daily bar chart. Joseph discuses mechanical entry points, protective stops and profit objectives for short-term trades of two to five days. Joseph’s presentation shows you his integration of the various short-term trading signals and how they form a master trading plan for participating in various markets.

Joseph B. StowellJoseph B. Stowell, sole proprietor of Money Management Services, a financial and trading consulting business, has spent over thirty years trading his own account. Joseph created the Bond Investor Newsletter, a publication primarily devoted to teaching successful short-term trading methods for the bond futures contract. The development of his technical trading methods for the bond market (applicable to other markets as well) follows the precept of “keeping it simple,” a point which Joseph emphasizes in his book, Tips for Traders and Investors, Trading U.S. Bonds and Stocks. Joseph also has over twenty years of experience teaching in the public schools of New York. This combination of trading and teaching experience gives Joseph the unique ability to explain difficult concepts in clear and easily understood presentations. As a trader, Joseph often shares his trading methods through individual tutoring and seminars. Joseph has participated in TAG conferences in Southeast Asia, Europe, India, and the Middle East, as well as cities in Canada and throughout the United States. Using the bond market as his primary trading vehicle, he has developed seven new trading approaches. These techniques are useful across a variety of markets such as metals, currencies, stock index, individual stocks, the energy sector, and agricultural products.

"Saturday Seminars" - Understanding The Decision Marking Process In Any Market

Posted on by lindsay

In this presentation, Peter will describe the important distinction between internal and external market information and how successful floor traders rely primarily on data the market generates internally about itself. Floor traders can readily determine whether or not the markets supports, or "uplifts", their decisions by evaluating the emotions, sounds, and energy levels generated in the pits. Physical proximity to the pits provides them with a distinct advantage over individual traders, for whom the only internal information available is volume.

Peter will describe the strides that the Chicago Board of Trade and NYMEX are making to provide users with more and better internal data. However, more data does not necessarily improve the decision-making process, causing the downfall of even highly trained and disciplined traders. Rather than overwhelming individual traders with too much information, the new platforms offered by the CBOT and NYMEX combine price, volume, and direction into a single market operating unit, and provide decision filters which, in essence, allow for forward testing trading strategies. Peter will describe the mechanics behind this process and provide examples from a variety of markets.

Peter Steidlmayer’s lifelong interest in the markets began during his undergraduate days at the University of California at Berkeley, from which he graduated in 1960. He joined the Chicago Board of Trade in 1963 and has been an independent trader ever since. Peter served on the board of directors of the CBOT from 1981 to 1983. While a director, he was responsible for initiating his own revolutionary concepts in data arrangement and trading information—Market Profile and the Liquidity Data Bank©. He is author of four books: Markets and Market Logic, Steidlmayer on Markets, New Market Discoveries, and 141 West Jackson, A Journey Through Trading Discoveries. He is presently working on his fifth book, The Essence of Trading. Each of these books establishes a rational working framework for organizing the underlying structure and movement of the market(s).

My First Experience In Forex Trading

Posted on by lindsay

Today I am pleased to introduce you to Thierry Martin from OnlineTradersForum.com. I asked Thierry, an expert Forex Trader, to talk about his experience in Forex and how the market has changed since he first started.

==================================================================

by Thierry Martin / OnlineTradersForum.com

Like so many long-time stock traders, I have noticed over the last few years a constant stream of ads with the purpose of getting stock traders open an account to trade foreign exchange, or forex. These ads make it sound like we're in the wrong business, because they usually point out all the advantages of trading forex compared to all the disadvantages of trading stocks. If you are like me, you were curious, but never bothered to actually go through with it and give it a try.

Well, finally, I gave in. What triggered my decision to get my feet wet was that I opened a new stock trading account with a company that also offered forex trading. The minimum deposit needed for the stock trading account was $2,000 but for the forex account it was $250, what they call a "mini" account. This sounded like a reasonable amount to risk on something I knew very little about, so I went ahead and funded it.

While waiting the three days for the account to be processed, I started learning how to trade forex by using a simulator account, something that almost every forex dealer offers. These accounts are funded with virtual money, and operate exactly like a live account with the obvious difference that you can't lose your money if your trades go south. I found this very useful, since I made a lot of mistakes that would have cost me real money otherwise. The simulators or "practice accounts" are a very good way to learn forex, although
you need to remember that your trading will be less relaxed when you are trading with real money.

Many forex firms offer the practice accounts to anyone who wants to open one, even those who aren't funding a real account. So you really have nothing to lose trying your hand at forex this way, and finding
out whether or not you want to trade later with real money.

Experiencing the forex market with a practice account, I started to see the validity to many of the claims I heard over the years. I am a late-night person, and it was great to be able to trade at 2:00 a.m. - some of the currency pairs were trading thinly at this time, but there were others with massive moves and huge volume.

Trading long or short was simple, with the same amount of risk, in contrast to shorting stocks where you need to follow certain restrictions. I was able to get out of forex trades going in the wrong direction and reverse my position immediately, and often recoup my losses quickly.

Another great advantage with forex trading is that you don't need to worry about day trading rules - you can trade in and out of a position as much as you want, scalping for small profits 24 hours a day, and you can start with as little as $100 with some forex brokers. (You should probably start with at least $250 though, this is the minimum you need to allow you to make mistakes without getting wiped out completely.)

In my next article I'll point out some more "advantages" to forex trading versus stock trading.
