Swing Trading - Aggressive price prediction requires unconventional risk management

CLICK HERE TO VIEW THIS WEBINAR ARCHIVE FOR FREE!  

The premise behind swing trading is to attempt to exploit the idea that markets spend most of the time range bound, and less of the time re-pricing the range.  Specifically, it is the act of aggressively buying or selling a futures contract into areas of predicted support and resistance and is in stark contrast to break-out trading and would likely make the skin of trend-traders crawl. 

Nonetheless, Paul Tudor Jones once said:    "I believe the very best money is made at the market turns.  Everyone says you get killed trying to pick tops and bottoms and you make all your money by playing the trend in the middle. Well for twelve years I have been missing the meat in the middle but I have made a lot of money at tops and bottoms."   

Although this statement was likely intended to denote long-term highs and lows, perhaps the same theory can be applied to any time frame.

Key points:  

  1.    What is swing trading?
  2.    The U.S. Dollar Index and Russell futures, prime candidates for swing traders?
  3.    Placing stop orders to "limit" loss, or create it?
  4.    Alternative risk management techniques
  5.    Low risk swing trading, is it possible?
  6.    Managing the news
  7.    Using technical analysis in swing trading

DeCarley Trading Futures Webinar with COT Report

Decoding the Commitments of Traders Report (COT) to Identify Overcrowded Trades  

Click here to listen to our ideas on using the COT in futures trading!  

If a stock trader wants to know what corporate insiders are doing with their shares, they look to SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) filings for help.  Corporate officers, directors, and beneficiary owners are required to report trades they have executed in shares of their company within two business days.  Similarly, a commodity trader looks to the Commitments of Trader (COT) report for insight into who is buying and selling futures and options. 

The COT report released by the CFTC is the optimal gauge of market sentiment because it doesn't just portray the opinions of the general public; it provides insight into traders that are actually putting their money where their mouths are!  Join us to discover how this information might be helpful to market speculation.

Topics covered:  

  • What is the COT?
  • When is the Commitments of Traders data collected and released?
  • Long vs. Short Format
  • Standard COT, or Futures and Options?
  • Understanding the relative nature of COT
  • Commitments of Traders categories: Commercials, Reportables, Non-Reportables
  • Identifying overcrowded trades
  • Applying COT analysis to tradign futures and options

Trader Education Video on E-Micro Currencies PDF Print E-mail
Written by Administrator   

Scale Trading with E-Micro Currency Futures

DeCarley Trading recently conducted an online educational event for Trader Kingdom and we'd like to share the experience with our followers.  The class focused on an alternative view of currency trading, specifically:
  • FOREX and currency futures don't have to be high leveraged, adrenaline pumping day trading
  • Less leverage and more patience could dramatically improve the odds of trading success
  • A basic scale trading approach to "smaller sized" futures and FX contracts, could provide optimal trade entry
  • Dollar cost averaging doesn't have to be reserved for stock traders only; lightly leveraged futures and FOREX traders CAN dollar cost average!
  • When analyzing markets, keep track of COT (Commitments of Traders) and seasonals

Forex Currency Trading Webinar

What: Getting Started in Currency Trading Part I

How: Click here to view an archive of "Getting Started in Currency Trading"

The currency markets are extremely complex and adding to the confusion are entry-level speculators is the choices in trading arenas.  The most renowned venue to trade currencies is FOREX, or simply FX, but the oldest are currency futures on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME Group).  The new kid on the block, and perhaps the least efficient method of placing wagers on currency fluctuations is the Exchange Traded Fund (ETF). 

 

Each of these trading arenas has advantages and disadvantages; the purpose of this class is to provide readers with an objective and informative point of view to enable educated decision-making.  After all, speculation isn't a "one size fits all" game.  What is comfortable and familiar for one trader, might be the opposite for another.  As a trader it is up to you to determine which avenue of speculation fits your needs and your personality.  Hopefully, attendees are able to walk away with the ability to do just that. 

 

Here are a few highlights:
  1. Crash Course in FX (Roll Overs, ECNs, Dealing Desks)
  2. FX roll overs
  3. ECN vs. non-ECN
  4. Margin/Leverage calculations
  5. The truth about FX commissions
  6. Currency Options
  7. Currency Futures vs. FX vs. Currency ETFs

Commodities are hot, as Jim Rogers would say.  Stagnant stocks and the massive bull rally in raw commodities have lured much of the attention away from Wall Street and toward down-town Chicago.  It is difficult to turn on the television or open the newspaper without being reminded of the impact that commodity prices have on our daily lives.
