Huge Mistakes Made When Choosing a Day Trading System | Part Four

Mistake: Paying for Trading Seminars, Books & Videos

Day Trading Seminars Can Be Misleading

Above all, if you learn nothing else from reading this chapter, please remember the following fact:

In most cases, day trading seminars are the equivalent to really expensive (albeit live-action) YouTube videos.

What this means for traders is that the same information and strategies being used and taught in most of these seminars can be found, for free, on common sites like YouTube.

In a recent experience, I came across a seminar which charged $3,600 for a six-hour introduction class. Further research showed the class’ curriculum covering general market facts alone.

Students attending class received really fancy-looking binders, a catered lunch and the smug feeling that only comes from knowing “the secret.”

What these students did not receive was any information whatsoever on how to trade.

There’s a reason these seminars have the negative reputation that they do. The entire seminar model itself is basically ideal for scammers and should immediately trigger multiple red flags.

This model includes three basic steps:

  1. Show up in a town for a couple days.

  2. Collect lots and lots of money.

  3. High-tail it out of town with no real way for unhappy customers to contact you.

Can you think of a better scam?

A good way to sniff out these scams is to remember the following:

A company’s pricing model directly reflects how it intends on maintaining its future relationship with you.

For example, if a company charges you everything up front, chances are there’s a high amount of risk involved in the product. If the charges are incurred on a monthly basis, chances are the company is banking on you being satisfied with the product.

Trading educators that charge monthly fees generally offer a higher level of support and concern for your success. To put it simply, if you’re not successful, they stop making money.

Tip: Be cautious of large up-front costs.

You’re Clear on Day Trading Seminars, But What About Books?

Books remain a great, inexpensive educational resource for those looking to learn about the markets.

Unfortunately, if a trader wants to actually make money in the market, it requires a lot more (even for the most avid readers) than simply reading some material to get started.

Another issue with these books is how quickly they become outdated. With trading platforms and software evolving so rapidly in recent years, books on a specific subject become useless if more than two years old.

Tip: Avoid books surrounding a specific trade strategy that are more than two years old.

In my experience, I’ve found the most beneficial reading material for traders often has nothing to do with the actual act of making trades. Instead, books dealing with psychology and mental readiness in trading have made the most difference in my trading.

Many traders believe this aspect of trading to be irrelevant. In contrast, I believe it to the driving factor behind 75% of your trading success.

Tip: Not a big reader? Listen to the audio version in the car or at the office.

We’ve Covered Day Trading Seminars and Books. What About Video?

It’s easy to see technological advances in education, television and digital media becoming more and more interactive by the day. Due to this, videos are becoming a faster, more efficient way to consume trading education material.

However, prior warnings in this chapter still apply.

This may seem obvious, but if you come across a system that doesn’t include education videos in its curriculum, it’s likely outdated and faulty. This is clear indication of the system as a whole.

As we previously discussed, there’s more free trading education videos on YouTube and other streaming sites than you can imagine. But know the information in these locations can be repetitive, and even incorrect at times.

If you’re diligent in your research, it will quickly become clear to you which video sources are reliable.

    DISCLOSURE: While these methods may have worked in the past, past results are not necessarily indicative of future results. While there is a potential for profits, there is also a risk of loss. A loss incurred in connection with trading foreign exchange currency contracts can be significant. Carefully consider whether such trading is suitable for you in light of your financial condition since all speculative trading is inherently risky and should only be undertaken by individuals with adequate risk capital.

    Mistake: Repeating Day Trading Entry and Exit Strategy Mistakes

    Three Questions to Remember When Choosing a Day Trading Entry and Exit Strategy

    While researching trading systems, many traders run into different strategies that are obviously going to fail.

    I recently had an experience with an education company claiming to have made hundreds of thousands of dollar with it’s own proprietary trading system. For a fee, the company was willing to teach me this strategy via their own education system.

    While looking into this company, I made sure to remember the following questions:

    1. If someone decides to make a trade, what do they stand to gain?

    2. What do they stand to lose?

    3. If a company was fishing for a good testimonial, but couldn’t actually deliver on its low-risk guarantees, could it inflate results to mislead consumers?

    A Bad Day Trading Entry and Exit Strategy Can Mislead You

    One of the main ways a company can inflate results is through what is called a hedge. A hedge is an opposing trade of equal value that offsets any profits or losses accrued by a previous trade.

    So, if a trader sets up two accounts, places a buying trade with one and a selling trade of equal value with the other, they are hedging. The profits of the first account will even out the losses of the other and only the winning trades are displayed.

    This is only one of the many ways these “educators” are enticing customers to use their programs.

    How to Spot a Faulty Day Trading Entry and Exit Strategy

    Remember that if you only see a couple of trades on a statement, it’s likely faulty information.

    Now, let’s say you see a statement with over 100 profitable trades. Your first instinct may be to trust the system. However, it’s important to make sure a stop loss was in place before going with this instinct.

    Traders with millions in their account are able to trade the market on the smallest level with no stop loss. This means they are able to hold onto their trade regardless of which way the market swings.

    This isn’t how a typical trader attacks the market, so why would you want a system that isn’t tailored to fit realistic trading parameters? In these systems that don’t use a stop loss, one bad trade can outweigh more than the 100 good ones and wipe out an entire account.

    The typical trader would have a stop loss set and an exit strategy in place. Make sure these are part of your trading system if you haven’t already.

    Day Trading Entry and Exit Strategy Red Flag

    There is no such thing as a perfect trading system. It is impossible to trade without taking at least a few losses here and there.

    Another issue that has been seen is the lack of continuing education surrounding margin. Some education systems even purposely leave margin curriculum all together. This allows the company to show flexibility in their system when a trader is margined out and is looking for someone to blame.

    Margin requirements should be clearly and thoroughly taught before the trader experiences it with a loss.

    A good way to spot margin issues with a trading system is to make sure margin requirements match up with stop loss positions. If the margin would kick a trader out far before the stop loss, it  may simply just be an oversight by the educator. However, if they get this basic step wrong, what other compromising practices will they teach you?

    What to Look for When Choosing a Day Trading Entry and Exit Strategy

    The final topic to be discussed relating to entries and exits is how long or short to make them.

    When identifying an exit strategy, remember that almost every strategy has many variables going into the equation. This can make it hard to plan ahead, which is why some educators determine their exit strategy at random.

    For new traders, it’s important to focus on the winner-to-loser ratio instead of the length. If this ratio is profitable, it shows the system works regardless of its exit strategy.

    Day Trading Entry and Exit Strategy: The X Factor

    At a certain point during their day trading education, each beginning trader finds themselves at a crossroads.The choice facing them? Whether to choose a scalping method (short exits and stops) or a long term strategy (long exits and stops).

    The main thing to consider when making this decision is whether you’re financially capable of practicing this method in your trading. Many think scalping involves less financial commitment than long term trading. However, the truth is the exact opposite!

    Personally, we suggest trading short term systems. The uncertainty of world economics, along with unsteady market conditions in recent years make scalping the safer choice between the two. This is due to the limited amount of time spent in the market as opposed to long term trading.

      Man Mistakenly Makes $11.6 Million | DayTradeFEED.com

      by

      Man Thinks He’s Day Trading Futures Demo Account

      Makes $11.6 Million Real Profit

      Above all, the following story shows us how emotion can affect us when we’re day trading futures. Please take this with a grain of salt as not all results are created equal…

      Harouna Traore was learning everything about day trading futures. Part of his training included practice trading a demo account using real market data. He opened a $23,000 account with British brokerage firm Valbury Capital, and began “practicing.”

      Day Trading Futures Without Fear

      Later that night, Traore went home to continue learning about what it’s like to day trade futures on a demo account. Like many beginners do, he went on to push the limits of the trading software.

      After all was said and done, he had lost more than a million dollars.

      Reality Sets In

      After finding himself more than one million dollars in the hole, Traore realized he wasn’t using a day trading futures demo account. In contrast, his account was very real, and he was in a pickle.

      “I could only think of my family,” Traore said. “I was stressed.”

      But instead of alerting the authorities or the company he was trading with, Traore decided to continue trading to see what he could do.

      (Dis)Advantages of Day Trading Futures

      Traore began day trading futures, and eventually found himself building up a $5 billion position in U.S. stock futures. He went on to turn his loss into a profit of about $11.6 million.

      At this point, he called Valbury Capital, who immediately claimed breach of contract. His winnings were declared void immediately.

      Traore is currently suing Valbury Capital for the $11.6 million. The case is ongoing and may move to France in the coming months.

      Before we show you our day trading results, we always make sure to explain exactly which trades these results are coming from.

      As we trade throughout the day, we record our trade results to post later on. These trade results come from all kinds of different strategies, including ONIT trades, SAT trades and normal daily trading.

      When we say “ONIT,” we mean the Overnight Impact Trade. Similarly, when we say “SAT,” we mean the Sunday Afternoon Day Trade.

      The ONIT is made Monday through Thursday, usually around 3:00 p.m. MST, and the SAT is a similar trade, but only made on Sunday afternoons. The trades are forex trades, and are placed on the EUR USD. Each trader simply sets the trade and forgets the trade each day, and watches the profits roll in.

      Many traders swear by these trades, and this is one of the only places you can find it!

      Day Trading Futures – Gold, Copper and Silver

      Day Trading Futures | DayTradeFEED.com

      Update on Gold, Copper and Silver Trading

      Above all, what happened last week should be seen as an example of how trade disputes can affect day trading futures.

      The annual meeting between leaders of the Group of Seven industrialized nations began in Canada last week (G-7 summit). Prior to the meeting, President Donald Trump decided to call out trade agreements between France, Canada and the US. This led to serious tension at the summit. As a result, President Trump has decided to leave the gathering early.

      “The six countries of the G-7 without the United States are a bigger market taken together than the American market. There will be no world hegemony if we know how to organize ourselves. And we don’t want there to be one,” French President Emmanuel Macron said in Ottawa on Thursday with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau by his side.

      In addition, Trump is also currently feuding over trade with China and Mexico, the US’s neighboring country to the south. Due to this feuding, feelings around the Gold, Silver and Copper Futures markets wasn’t as chipper as many hoped.

      How Do Political Disputes Affect Day Trading Futures?

      These political disagreements can be a nightmare for day trading futures, especially with someone in charge who has a tendency to publicly attack other nations and their leadership so quickly. This can cause big swings in the market that can be hard to avoid and get out of when going against you.

      As a result of this volatility, the price of gold has actually increased, holding on to a .2% increase during the week. This is typical during political turmoil, as many rush to obtain assets such as precious metals as a way of avoiding any type of recession or decreased trading.

      “While risk aversion created from heightened trade concerns is positive for gold, expectations over higher U.S. interest rates are likely to threaten upside gains,” said Lukman Otunuga, research analyst at FXTM. “With the [Federal Reserve] expected to announce another interest rate increase next week, zero-yielding gold may face some headwinds down the road.”

      Above all, make sure you pay attention to a specific resistance level if you’re day trading futures. Chintan Karnani, chief market analyst at Insignia Consultants, believe that resistance level lies at $1,312.60. If the market breaks that level, look for it to continue trending upward.

      Day Trading Futures | Market News Update

      by

      Futures Market Updates | DayTradeFEED.com

      Issues with North Korea

      Different news, events and build stronger biceps political rumors can affect your trades if you are day trading futures. This has been apparent recently as talks between the United States and North Korea have been in the focus of the American consumers.

      To give a little history behind this, North Korea has been more or less against coming anywhere near talks with leaders from the United States without a weapon readily available. This all changed in the past months, as President Donald Trump negotiated a meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, which was set for the 12th of next month.

      Trump Cancels the June 12th Summit

      This summit between the two nations (with South Korea in attendance as well) was cancelled on Thursday, May 24. President Trump announced this via his twitter feed:

      “I have decided to terminate the planned Summit in Singapore on June 12th. While many things can happen and a great opportunity lies ahead potentially, I believe that this is a tremendous setback for North Korea and indeed a setback for the world…,” Trump said.

      While the announcement came as a shock to the entire world, there were warm and positive feelings to follow.

      “We express our willingness to sit down face-to-face with the U.S. and resolve issues anytime and in any format,” said Kim Kye Gwan, a senior North Korea foreign ministry official, in a statement published by North Korea’s official state media.

      Trump followed his tweet by saying he was glad to hear a positive message from North Korea and looked forward to meeting in a summit setting in the near future.

      “Very good news to receive the warm and productive statement from North Korea. We will soon see where it will lead, hopefully to long and enduring prosperity and peace. Only time (and talent) will tell!” Trump tweeted.

      How does this affect those who are day trading futures?

      Just like any type of announcement made by a high-ranking government official, Trump’s tweet sent stocks plummeting on Thursday. However, this down trend retraced a bit as feelings didn’t seem to be as tense as the day moved along.

      On top of this, crude oil futures fell 3.3%. This was due to the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries reducing oil production by up to one million barrels per day. Crude oil prices have already risen 13% this year and look to only increase.

      Day Trading Futures | In Conclusion

      “If the Saudis do lift oil production, that could be the news of the day. It may result in a weak patch for the energy sector, but for the broader market that could be offset by a rise in sentiment if it results in gas prices falling going into the summer driving season,” said John Augustine, chief investment officer at Huntington Private Bank.

      “There’s still a lot of questions about geopolitical issues with North Korea. Recent developments have seemed positive, but there’s a big question of what the sentiment is going to look like during the long weekend. The question for investors is whether they should wait until Tuesday to see what happened over the weekend and make decisions then.”
