How Much Money Can You Make Day Trading?
A question I often get in my line of work is how much money can you make from day trading. The question usually sounds something like: Hi, Adam! I was wondering if you could share with me how much you are making per month (either in $$ s or %) so I can know what to expect for myself. After getting over the initial shock someone would ask something so personal, I started to try to figure out how to best answer this question. I have no problem being open and honest about anything, but I have a value system that usually prevents me from sharing every detail of my life indiscriminately. However, I realized that even if I only shared my numbers with each person asking, it would not help their trading one bit. Why? Because everyone s experience is different! Day trading is not like a regular career choice or job. There are no guarantees for success. Because I have worked with so many traders over the years, I have a big picture understanding of how much day trading money

How to Make the Perfect Day Trading Sandwich
When people use the term day trading , they mean the act of buying and selling a stock within the same day. Day traders seek to make profits by leveraging large amounts of capital to take advantage of small price movements in highly liquid stocks or indexes. Here we look at some common day trading strategies that can be used by retail traders. Now, you’re probably saying… “What the heck does a Sandwich have to do with a profitable trading plan?” It turns out A LOT! In order to have a great sandwich, you must have two slices of quality bread, and your personal choice of ingredients, right? That said.. what critical role does bread play in the making of a solid sandwich? It holds everything together… A great Trading System is exactly the same! Here’s the point: The ingredients between the bread are important. However, choosing those ingredients is a matter of personal preference.

5 Things to Help Protect Your Trading Account
You wouldn t embark on our day trading journey if we thought you were going to lose money. I think only the most masochistic of gamblers gets into day trading specifically to blow money. Yet, after only a bit of experience, virtually any trader realizes losing money can happen even when that is the last thing on their mind. So today, I want to focus on the day trading version of a classic baseball pitching by saying don t give up the big inning. In baseball, the pitcher has a unique position in that every ball on the defensive side goes through his hands on the way to whatever the result may be. He has the game in his hands and his supporting cast of defensive players can only watch and react to what happens after the ball leaves his hands. I propose that YOU are just like the pitcher in the ballgame of day trading. In baseball, a pitcher can lose composure or get tired. Pitches that were hard to hit before now sail from the mound to the other guy holding the bat. It is

Automated Trading Software
Man vs. Machine Recently, I was asked if we are creating Automated Trading software for the Diversified Trading System (DTS) or the Raptor Trading System (RTS). The answer is Yes. But it s still far out. Why? Because while the math of this Automated Trader is based on our Trading Systems; the program is being designed for an automated trading environment. IMHO, a common misunderstanding is that one can automate how humans trade and that humans can trade the way machines do. Each device has its strengths and weaknesses. I believe humans can be better traders than machines because they can process more nuances than a computer. Subtle is tough to code. But, humans suffer from inconsistent execution and follow through. This situation is not the case with an automated system. A computer can be depended on to take the same trade under the same conditions every single time. The challenge with Automated trading is Chop . Choppy tight range price action is tough enough on us humans.

Use the Daily Range to Set Stop Loss and Profit Targets
Anyone who spends any time in our trade room, or simply talking to me about trading knows I am a support and resistance addict. I use it daily, with every trade. My approach to trading ANYTHING relies on the information given through Support and Resistance. And, when people ask me about stops and profits targets .yup I say Put them near key support and resistance levels. But what if I had to do it differently? What if my trading REQUIRED me to choose mechanical, calculated values instead? How the heck would I do it? Could this a Support and Resistance junkie really come up with a way that made sense? I always enjoy a challenge. So, I spent some time thinking about it. If I had to choose a method for placing my stops and profit targets not based on my favorite method here is how I would: Before I get to the actual nuts and bolts , let s cover the theory first. The name of the game here is Daily Range. What is a daily range? It s the number, in ticks, that each trading

What George Costanza Taught Me About Stop Management
George Costanza (Jason Alexander), the lovable loser from the sitcom Seinfeld, never seemed to be able to get ahead. That is, until one particular episode where George got fed up with his circumstances and decided to do everything opposite of what he normally did. The logic was that if the things he normally did got him to where he was now (loser) then doing the exact opposite should get him to where he wanted to be (winner). The outcome was that, by the end of the show, George was the new Manager of the New York Yankees, so his plan worked splendidly. I thought this was a fascinating concept and one that might have relevance in the trading world as well. Maybe we, as traders, need to be more like George Costanza and question what we’ve assumed to be right all these years. Maybe like George, we too will have the opposite result and turn our losing trades into winners! Traders tend to treat trading axioms as Gospel. If it sounds good, we believe it.

Chuck Norris’ Day Trading Boredom Smackdown
Do you ever get bored when trading? I hear this quite a lot. In fact, it is often day trading boredom that can cause us to lose our grip on a disciplined approach. After all, there are few things more exciting and ultimately satisfying than taking a trade you should not have and then winning big. It delivers that guilty pleasure of being an outlaw, rebel, and hero all rolled into one. Good guys wear black! Unfortunately, this scenario is highly addictive, and it has cleaned out many accounts. Let s just put it this way: it is crazy! Just say no! The question is How should you deal with day trading boredom? It might drive you into rapid action scenarios like micro-scalping. Nothing wrong with that but you better know your stuff. Otherwise, it is equally as crazy as taking the trade you should not have. Common boredom killers are watching TV, a movie, or surfing the net, knitting (ya, right) all the while keeping an eye on your analysis chart. The problem is,

Day Trade to Win – A System Hopper’s Misguided Journey
Let s take a trip down memory lane shall we? It was 1989. Michael Jordan was a rising star, on his way to becoming legendary. Spike Lee was making edgy, popular films. Being a huge basketball fan, he agreed to do an unforgettable commercial about Jordan called Remember? IT S GOTTA BE DA SHOES! This television commercial for our younger audience, as themed around Spike Lee inquiring as to how Michael Jordan was just so amazing, and his focus was around the most obvious answer .the shoes! Wait! You re telling me that you don t believe the shoes MADE Jordan a great player? Without the shoes .average, six and a half foot guy. With the shoes, though ..look out! Yes, it s a very cool advertisement, one that has stuck with me for 25 years no less.

Day Trading Futures: Using Stop Loss Orders Stop loss orders (also referred to as a stop-loss, or stops) is a tool that is used to exit a trade once its movement begins to lose money.

What the Heck is Technical Analysis? A Trader’s Guide
Aaaaand they re off! ..or are they? Although the horse race begins with a loud announcement and a bell, we unfortunately do not have the same clear signals much of the time in the markets. Technical analysis is a game of incomplete information and risk. If we were able to know all the answers, there would be no money to be made as no one would ever take the bad side of an obvious trade, or it would involve illegally conning someone into giving you their money. If that doesn t make sense, just think about why we don t bet on games that have already happened, and what the persons involved would be doing if it DID happen. Trading in the real market creates a situation where the outcome is unknown, therefore allowing different viewpoints to take a chance on their information and analysis and completing the necessary condition of a buyer and a seller to make the transaction exist in the first place.

Day Trading Strategy – Minimize Sentimentality
It is well known that there is a lot of psychology involved in the life of day trader. However, sentimentality is one emotion that has no place in a day trading strategy. Throughout the course of a day trader’s week, he or she can experience all the emotions of success and loss, and the heartache of making a bad decision. One of the psychological traits that many day traders work on is controlling their propensity to perform sentimental trading. Why Do We Do Sentimental Trading? There are numerous reasons why a day trader might become highly sentimental about one of their trades. For some day traders, it is just a natural reaction in their personality because they become sentimental over a variety of things in their lives. Other traders that are not sentimental about external things at all can be extremely sentimental when it comes to their egos. They simply do not have it in them to accept a losing trade. Even if they hold tight to their money and display frugality away from t

Trade Multiple Contracts to get Real Profits
Get an Edge and Trade Multiple Contracts When day trading futures, traders often enter and exit multiple contracts at the same time, in the same day. This situation is not limited to futures contracts; traders can choose other instruments to day trade using more than one contract. Typically a minimum trade is estimated at one hundred shares or one future contract. While single contracts offer an advantage to small capital investors, multiple contracts are used by professional day traders to generate enough profits to operate their business efficiently. Day Trading Single Contracts Single contracts work as an effective day trading tool to purchase trades using minimal capital. This strategy minimizes risk and allows the investor the time needed to become comfortable in trading his or her contract or shares. The ease of trading with a single contract reduces complications that typically are involved in managing multiple contracts. However, with today’s more advanced day trading system

7 Things Star Wars Taught Me About Day Trading
Earlier this week, I was geeking out with a friend and discussing what movie had the biggest impact on us as children. For me it was easy… “Star Wars,” of course. There is no doubt that the special-effects, light sabers and good versus evil storyline was engaging. But it was only later in life that I realized the relatively minor piece of the storyline had a lasting impact on me. I m talking about The Force. Evidently, I’m not the only one. In 2001, “Jedi” became the fourth most popular religion in the United Kingdom. I saw the original Star Wars when I was 10 years old and it changed my life. We all have faith in something; usually a mixture of some personal beliefs with modern science. It was only later when I became a religious studies major in college that I realized that the force referred to a common theme found in all world religions… The oneness or force that connects all things in life. That idea shows up as a universal concept ranging from Christianit

Day Trading Psychology Tips from Richard Friesen
Sometimes I find trading psychology material a bore because more often than not, it s the same old stuff repeated. Certainly, successful management of your emotions, biases and triggers is of paramount importance to the trader. But, what has always been missing for me is a better understanding of what s really going on in there and some practical things I can do to deal with it. In the past, I hosted a webinar for Richard Friesen called The Breakout Psyche: Mastering Your Psychology for Profitable Trading. I know Rich very well because he designed our Trader Assessment Test but I never really knew his methods to help traders master their mental game. During the presentation with Erich Senft, I found myself enthralled with what Rich had to say and it was on a subject that usually puts me to sleep. Erich also had to admit that Rich made him think about his psychology in a whole new way that s saying a lot coming from a 17-year trading veteran. Rich is an expert in trading psych

Fake Testimonials at Indicator Warehouse?
Someone emailed me this past week accusing Indicator Warehouse of having fake testimonials! Yikes! His reasoning was because there were two testimonials with the same text. How that reveals they are fake as opposed to our webmaster incorrectly posting them, I’m not sure. Nonetheless, I wanted to address the issue in case you have any doubts yourself. I am a huge believer in old school customer service. It s something that, sadly, is getting harder and harder to find. A major part of delivering quality support is simply asking how are we doing? After you become a customer at Indicator Warehouse, I like to periodically check-in and see how things are going. So don t be surprised if you get a friendly email that essentially says, “Hi … are we doing a good job? Please let us know how we can help.” All you have to do is hit reply and let us know if there is anything we can do better.

Active: Actively listen and participate in the exercises. State: Sit up, lean forward. Feel the excitement and curiosity to learn. Teach: Learn as though you must teach this to others. Do you accept the challenge? If so, take a moment to Register Now. Well done! So What the heck is “Biohacking”? Biohacking is a crazy-sounding name for something not crazy at all—the desire to be the absolute best version of ourselves. The main thing that separates a biohacker from the rest of the self-improvement world is a systems-thinking approach to using our brains. Biohackers know that whatever you put into your mind has an

Here’s Some Trading Tips While Working Full Time
We all start trading with hopes and aspirations of leaving our day job; let’s face it, the 9 to 5 grind, the commute, and the fact we answer to someone else seems to push us toward a more rewarding endeavor and ultimately real freedom. So, what can we do? How can we trade when we have a full-time job to pay the bills? Part-Time Trading Tips When I first started trading, I had a full-time job myself. I would spend my days dreaming of when I could trade full time on my own, or at least not have to go to work every day. The answer to starting in trading was the pre-market, or what I like to call the overnights . This period, also known as the London session, has a myriad of instruments you can trade. The real beauty of the futures markets is that with Globex, it trades 24 hours a day from Sunday afternoon through Friday. Now, not all markets are suitable to trade “overnight”. Unless you are holding a longer position, you need to choose your markets carefully and ensure

Trading Vendors: How Does Real Day Trading Work
CFTC Warning Day Trading Vendors who Publish Results Beware! It happened to me. It s happened to every trader I ve ever known. My guess is it s happened to you. I m talking about being suckered into buying a day trading system because of the killer results in their advertising. i.e. Buy this and you will make a lot of money just like these results I know it s hard to ignore these claims but the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) recently put out a warning to day traders about these types trading vendors of day trading systems. Here at Indicator Warehouse we don t make such claims because, well, publishing results with the false implication that you will achieve the exact same is absurd. If you were buying a race car and I pointed to one on the lot and said, That car won three races last week, does that mean you are going to win a race if you buy it? If you were buying a power saw to build something and I said, This saw is the one used to make this award winning furn

Bring Your Trading A-Game
This week I tried to trade after a visit to the dentist. As you might guess I had less than desirable results. The experience reminded me about an important concept often overlooked by traders: if you’re going to trade your best you have to be at your best. Simply put this means that you have to “have your head in the game”, or put another way, you cannot trade well if you are not 100% focused on your trading. It seems simple enough yet we often push ourselves to trade even though we’re not in our best frame of mind to perform. Remember that trading is not like other businesses. If you are not at your best the market will not have mercy on you, and that could make for an expensive day. Your success or failure depends in large part on your ability to focus and handle the pressures associated with trading. Here are a couple of suggestions to improve your trading performance that I learned the hard way. Get Your Rest Sometimes performing your best is as simple as getting a good n

Staying Steady in Narrow Range Day Markets
Dealing with a Narrow Range Day Don t think that simply because a market is ranging, that you can t make money. Depending upon how you go about day trading, a narrow range day may offer excellent opportunities to trade. Part of being able to spot opportunities is learning how to use indicators for day trading in the right way. If your expectation of day trading software is a one size fits all trading system, you may have the predisposition to regard a narrow range day a sign that there s no way you can make any money at all. If you feel this way, talk to more experienced day traders and ask them if they can help you learn trading techniques that will allow you to make money when most people are losing. Day traders live in something of a time-lapse version of the regular trading world. For a trader, a narrow range may last a half an hour, a half a day or a week. Day trading software and useful custom indicators enable you to capitalize on the challenges of trading on a narrow rang

Taking Profits Too Quickly? It’s Time For A Strategy Tune-up
Taking profits too quickly and letting losers run are common problems amongst new and old traders. The combination of the two often ends up shortening the professional trading careers of many. The cause is most times traceable back to the strategy and position sizing being employed or the lack thereof. The answer then is often found by doing a strategy tune-up. A common mistake is to begin trading without a well-defined strategy or objective. Taking profits too quickly or letting a losing trade run are not uncommon even amongst more experienced traders. Starting with a clear objective is important. What is your per trade profit target? How many contracts are you trading? How often are you trading? Where are you placing a stop? What is your exit strategy? What amazes traders the most after using the Trade Manager is how much money they were leaving on the table by not having the correct amount of shares or contracts for each trade. Ninety-five percent of tr

Can Tick Value Affect Your Trades?
Most traders get so involved in the act of trading they give very little thought to what they will be trading. They do they know that the instrument they choose to trade can have a big impact on their overall success. Choose a bad market and you ll find yourself under-capitalized, taking more significant losses, and losing out on a nice profit. So how does the average trader pick a market to trade? Usually, there s very little (if any) thought involved. They often gravitate to whatever market is “sexy” at the moment. This method usually translates into a very fast, very volatile market such as Gold or Crude, to which the average trader may not be suited to trade. Another popular way of picking a market is to go for a high tick value. This approach explains why the emini S&P is “King of the Hill” of the mini-index markets. At $12.50/tick, profits add up quickly – it’s almost too good to not trade – of course, people never seem to consider the reverse of the equation and
