What is computerised trading?
Computerised E-minis day trading is the buying and selling of Stock Index Futures within a single day, or intra-day. No position is held overnight. Real-time market data, via the Internet, is used to determine buy and sell signals, and orders can be placed electronically via the Internet with no middleman or broker intervention in the process of order execution.
Why can't trading software make the final decision for you and ensure profitability?
Trading software, or black boxes, are based on past market data that is used to predict future market results. It's like using yesterday's weather to predict todays weather, not very dependable. The market dynamics are always changing and the market never repeats itself exactly. Software-based trading programs don't stay profitable and often offer huge losses. If software-based trading programs could dependably and consistently make profitable decisions, banks or corporations with billions of dollars in assets and resources could develop such software and use it to trade. Software tools are only useful to assist in crunching numbers and sorting data. The only way to become a successful trader is to learn to trade for yourself, and this is where E-minis Global can help you.
Why should I day trade the markets?
Successful day trading requires a market with enough daily movements to make it worthwhile, allowing for the entry and exit of positions at intervals large enough to grab a piece of the movement. The S&P 500, DOW and NASDAQ markets are among the most volatile markets in the world, moving up and down frequently enough on a daily basis to allow for multiple intra-day trading opportunities.
are cutting-edge products designed for the active trader who wants to trade electronically, and likes to have maximum control with the highest profit potential. As more and more investors and traders learn about the Indexes, they switch to short-term trading of the markets.
How does TIMES work?
The key to trading success is to combine powerful accuracy with strategy simplicity. TIMES utilises a simple yet powerful strategy to determine the buy and sell signals that occur numerous times daily. There is always an advance warning that occurs long before final confirmation of a trade entry. When there is a potential for a signal to form, the trade should be prepared for execution. When the final confirmation occurs, simply execute the trade online with one click. TIMES alerts you to the exact second to submit the trade. Immediately after entering the market, a stop loss order is placed in an effort to limit the risk of substantial loss. Some popular trading systems require a year or more of practice to use their methodology but TIMES is designed to get the trader productive in a much quicker time frame. Many systems require that you monitor multiple charts and indicators on multiple screens, making it difficult for the average person to be successful. The TIMES signals are powerful and easy to recognise and only one monitor is required.
How long will the TIMES last and will it become outdated?
TIMES will not become outdated as long as the markets continue to have reasonable volatility and liquidity. If the market is not volatile there is no potential for profit and you should not be trading with any system. The S&P 500, DOW and NASDAQ markets have been volatile since their inception providing excellent opportunities for TIMES traders.
What is the potential of TIMES and what can it do for me?
On average, TIMES identifies eight signals per day. These signals usually occur at the beginning of the very high probability moves. With the TIMES trading method it does not matter whether the market is going up or down (or even sideways). When trading Eminis, you can trade short just as easily and safely as going long. Unlike the stock market, there is no additional risk and no up-tick rule to short sell.
How long is the training period?
The learning and trading simulation period is completely self-paced, you should allow yourself approximately 6 weeks for the training phase depending on the students learning abilities. After completing your registration for the TIMES Eminis Program with Eminis Global, the comprehensive eLearning course will be distributed via email.
What added mentorship and support will you receive?
After the comprehensive learning phase of the TIMES Eminis Program, you are invited to learn to trade in the LIVE market, in real time, with your trading instructor for 5 weeks at NO extra charge. This extra mentorship speeds you up on the learning curve and increases your chance of long-term success. Post-training support is always available to address any questions, either on-line or via phone support.
Can TIMES be implemented on a part-time basis?
Yes. Everyone has different motives and preferences for their trading. Not everyone wants to be a full-time trader, you may be looking for some additional income or perhaps want to make a smooth transition from working full-time to living the lifestyle that others can only dream about...
You will have access to a live on-line trading room that enables you to trade from 9:00am to 6:3pm Australian Eastern Standard Time. The preferred time to trade is generally during the US Cash Market Hours when Wall Street is open from 8:30am to 3:15pm CST (US Central Standard Time) as it is the most volatile. There are many opportunities to trade these markets, to suit various lifestyles whether you want to trade part-time or full-time.
How should I start actual trading?
After achieving 15 out of 20 profitable days in your simulated trading, we recommend that students begin trading with only one contract for the first few days. The minimum to open a brokerage account is US$3000. By trading with only one contract, students test their discipline while risking the least amount of capital. If the student experiences consistent success with one E-mini contract, their amount of trading capital will increase and allow them to add additional contracts to their trades as their win/loss ratio improves.
