The core, rule-based strategy that we teach is supply and demand
with trend as the first odds enhancer. Try to stand in front of a
moving truck and you are likely to get run over. The same is true of a
trend in price. By taking trades in the direction of the trend, we are
more likely to profit and not get run over financially. We can also
increase our odds by evaluating the supply and demand zones where we
plan to enter, or exit, and narrow our trading down to those that are
only the highest quality.
Most traders like to use some technical indicator tools in my trading.
You can use them as odds enhancers though and would not enter a trade
only because my indicator gave me a buy or sell signal. All of those
indicators are lagging and will serve to give you confirmation once
price has left the optimal entry zone. The traditional buy and sell
crossovers always occur after a reversal of price. The best signal you
can receive from the indicators would be positive or negative
divergence as price reaches a supply or demand level. The bottomline
is that every successful trader does two things in the same way - they
take their small losses and let their winners run. It doesn't matter
if you are playing tennis, soccer, football, or baseball - follow the
rules! At the end of the game, the person/team with the most points
wins.
Watch how the economy of a country will also help you in your risk
management when you are trading. Many countries news releases have an
impact on the U.S. markets. Especially in the banking and oil sectors.
This applies to any country. Traders and investors will place their
money into markets that might outperform in the next economic period.
Hedge fund managers are very good at spotting these different cycles
and making buys or sells on news from different countries. You should
look for businesses and industries that offer potential growth.
Growth industries like technology, and builders such as industrials
and materials when the housing starts are going up.
learn to trade ETF options exchange traded
funds option trading
If you are thinking about how to trade exchange traded funds or ETF
options here are a few tips to get you started. ETF option trading has
a great risk versus reward ratio. The first thing you need to do is make sure you have a broker like
Ameritrade or Etrade and that they have approved you for trading
options such as ETF's, ETFs are securities that you trade like a
stock and are typically designed to follow an underlying index like
the Russel 1000, symbol FAS, which can trade over 80 million shares a
day. Most of the top brokerages will have ETF trading available for
you. They will also have a ETF screener that can help you get started
trading options. Companies like Ameritrade have a option screener
called options 360 and a strategy trading platform.
On these options trading platforms you can enter the underlying
symbol and it will tell you the current call and put options
available.
If you don't know the underlying symbol for the option you can type in
the stock symbol and it will show you the option symbol. Most of these
option platforms will also tell you the volume ,strike prices and what
month they expire plus many other charts and so on. Call and put option
contracts are 1 contract equals 100 shares of the stock. The
commission varies from each broker but it is usually about 75 cents a
contract plus the regular trade commission.
ETF option trading takes some time to get use to .You need to study
and learn about call and put options, which are the easiest to learn.A
call option is where you believe the stock price is going to go up. A
put option is where you believe the stock price is going to go down.
Trading ETF options are fairly safe and you should only risk no more
then 2% of your account on each trade. An example would be if you
think that QQQQ stock is going to go down over the next three months
you would buy a put option with a strike price three months out. The
trading platform will automatically give you the price of the option
which can change through out the trading day. Once your in the money
you can sell the option or if the option expires out of the money you
only lose a small amount compared to the amount if you had purchased
the stock

Sophisticated Investing, Made Easy.™ This is the motto we used while

2. Flexibility
We understand there is no silver bullet investing solution that will
