In case you missed it, here is yesterday’s price action webinar. With many traders in attendance, John shared his live NinjaTrader charts while explaining how the Atlas Line software works. For those of you who are new to Day Trade to Win, the Atlas Line is software that plots a line on your charts and provides exact entry prices and direction (Short or Long) across the most popular futures and currencies. When you have an accurate system that provides the direction to trade along with the time / price to enter, trading becomes much more enjoyable.
Remember, the Atlas Line is included and taught in the Private Mentorship Program. Also, everything else we teach is included to assist with filtering and recognizing opportunities. A new session of Private Mentorship begins this coming Thursday (March 15). Don’t be idle at the Ides – register your seat and change your trading around!
The Atlas Line plotted a Short signal for the CL (Light Sweet Crude), 6E (Euro) and GC (Gold Futures) charts as shown. Providing you took the live trade according to the profit target rules, you would have made out nicely.
Also, if you’re looking for tips on how to trade those unpredictable news events, John explains a plan of action at around the 2:30 mark.
Because yesterday was contract rollover day for CME futures, you’ll also see how to switch to the new contract period. Although this may be common knowledge among professionals, some basic information is provided at around 16:10.
In the E-Mini (ES), a Long entry was given at the price of 1363. This would have also been a nice trade.
At around the 29:00 mark, John explains how to read the ATR across multiple markets. This is important because the value he and others quote involves decimal position moving, particularly when addressing the Euro as compared to the E-Mini.

John Paul once again proves that successful day trading can be easy. The video starts with showing you how to take advantage of the large bullish news event candle at around 8:30 a.m. US/Eastern. A common mistake is made when trying to interpret the news as either positive or negative, then entering based on your judgement. John shows a specific technique where the market can be used to provide direction AFTER the big move, when price movement becomes easier to predict. To keep track of news events, visit the Bloomberg Economic Calendar and note the red star announcements.
Another technique John discuss is the Yo-Yo effect. Based on buyer / seller exchange principles, this effect occurs when price bounces back and forth in a choppy succession. If you’re looking to enter a trade, this forecasting method will help you avoid problematic conditions. Start watching from around the 26 minute mark if you’re interested.
The final topic John touches on is market predictions for 2012. By the end of the year, John expects indices to climb to levels higher than those reached in January 2012. The pattern used for this prediction can be back-tested many years with a high degree of accuracy, as it’s used by professional market analysts.

Watch John Paul make 1.25 points using the Atlas Line while teaching one of his students. The other voice you hear in the video is a one-on-one Private Mentorship student who is asking John questions. Normally, when John is training his students either in the individual or group Mentorship classes, he focuses on teaching instead of trading. When a profitable and educational trading opportunity arises during lecture, John takes the trade. Watch the video to see how the Atlas Line’s Long signal is used along with a target of 1.25 points. You’ll see a fairly large stop (Catastrophic) in place as indicated by NinjaTrader’s Chart Trader, but this is not used. If the trade started to move against him, John would have used a Prove-It stop in this case, triggering when price closes below the plotted Atlas Line. A second Time-Based stop is also kept in mind, but not used as price eventually hits the target. Each stop strategy along with the entire method for trading the Atlas Line is taught in the included live training or in Private Mentorship (if you prefer to learn everything we offer).
Remember, let price prove to you how it wants to be traded. Also, have a defined entry and exit strategies in mind before each trade. This keeps risk management in check and makes your trading objective.

New video testimonial – Tony is a Private Mentorship student who attributes his success to the methods taught during his eight weeks of training with us. By using eight of the 11 of the unique price action methods taught in the coaching program, Tony has a chronological plan to deal with any situation price presents. Tony can handle price when it’s trending, ranging and whipsawing while being able to determine a market’s tradability and the best approach to take at the current moment. Tony says, “I know exactly what I am looking for as a price target. I know when to stay out of market – when it’s too wide and too thin. What he (John Paul) does teach, you can go through and start taking ticks out of the market instead of giving them back.”
Now it’s your turn to take advantage of the reduced 2011 price for the Group Mentorship Program. Lessons begin in early January, along with a price increase.

This is a strategy you can use day in and day out as a setup to determine where price is going to trend / channel. This is a forecast method that works for the ES (E-Mini) and other futures / currencies. As mentioned, you can use it without any software, as it’s a powerful way of looking at your charts by observing price action.
The goal of the ABC is to split the trading day into three separate parts: the opening (A), mid (B) and end (C) sections. The ES opens at 9:30 a.m. US/Eastern so this is the position of the first line. The second line, placed at 12:00 (noon) is the second line. This effectively encompasses the A part of the day (2.5 hours). What can be expected out of this period? Generally, a strong movement or direction as influenced by systems and swing traders. The second part of the day is from 12:00 p.m. until 2:30 p.m. (14:30) This period is usually slower, lacking in activity as compared to A. If and when price in B moves (breaks) out of the high and low range of A, then you have a prime opportunity to trade to the long or short side. It’s best to look for this opportunity early in part B. Part C occurs from 2:30 p.m. until market close. To trade part C, use the range of B to determine the ‘pop’ in direction. December 12 ended in a late-day sell off that could have been used for a decent profit.
Watch the video to see how today’s ABC pattern worked out today!

>> Purchase Power Price Action with a single payment of $995 or two consecutive monthly payments of $595.

Power Price Action is a complete day trading course on four DVDs that contain multiple, highly accurate price action strategies for effectively trading futures, currencies, forex and beyond. The package includes over 13 hours of footage, a 45+ page color workbook and bonus Floor Traders Secrets manual. The exclusive Blueprint Trade, Stair Step Setup, Yo-Yo Setup, chart configuration, and ABC pattern are taught. The only other places you can find these techniques is in the full Mentorship Program (a separate eight week trading program that includes/covers all of our courses and software).
In the chart above, you can see how the chart is absent of all indicators. Using an understanding of price patterns, the ES (E-Mini) ‘proved’ its desire to go long. Since the Power Price Action’s Blueprint Trade uses exact entry and exit rules, we knew to enter at 1251.00 with a profit target at 1252.25. Where some traders may have panicked with the red candle, we had confidence that the market’s direction would change course to our favor, resulting in profit. Multiple setups for the Blueprint Trade occur intraday on the E-Mini and other ‘moving’ currencies. Stay tuned for our next webinar where John Paul will demonstrate such trades live.

Here’s a video of the last few days trading the At the Open (ATO) method on the E-Mini (ES) and the Euro (6E) currency. See the profitable results for the last few days as John Paul scrolls through the NinjaTrader chart, showing the exact entries the ATO software provides. In total, there are five straight ES winners and two 6E winners. There are undoubtedly more, but time is of the essence! The ATO is a mechanical, price action method that focuses on making profit from the day’s initial move. The profit targets, order types, stops and management are covered in the digital book and included live training session. The included software can be used as an optional aid.
Remember that the ATO course and included live training covers the following:

With nearly one month left before the close of 2011, many traders are still left scratching their heads wondering what went wrong. These traders, who have now experienced considerable loss, most likely traded using managed accounts or automated systems.
Well, what has made 2011 different from other years?
With a worldwide economy that is becoming increasingly interwoven along with increased paranoia of repeating another 2008 collapse, 2011 has raised the bar as being, perhaps, the most turbulent economic year humanity has ever faced. Surely, no single person (or even group of people) can come up with an answer of prosperity for each country in the world. This means, in all likelihood, such conditions will continue far into 2012, especially with the U.S. Presidential race coming into focus. The United States still has to deal with its debt management plans. The Eurozone must decide how to manage the Eurozone or decide the best course for separation.
What does this mean for day traders? For optimal trading conditions, most day traders expect a reasonable amount of return on each trade (or investment), relative to the assessed risk. When the markets have been this unpredictable, relying on any sort of one-size-fits-all algorithmic computation is a recipe for disaster. This is even truer for retail traders, who are subject to the effects of high frequency trading and price manipulation. In addition, most CTAs and financial planners who buy and hold long term have seen the tragedies produced by these trying times (and lost many clients along the way). Managed accounts, algorithmic trading, and the like are simply not suited for today’s wildly swinging markets. In August of this year, we saw the Dow tumble 512 points just because of “spooked investors,” as reported by CNN. That drop was the Dow’s ninth deepest ever.
Instead, retail traders who want to make money consistently must be able to recognize tradeable market conditions. This is an essential part of risk assessment. Secondly, once a market is decided to be tradable, a trader must know the proper technique on how to trade it. As mentioned earlier, there are plenty of reasons to abandon automated methods. The only other approach is to observe price patterns on the chart and trade based on them in real-time. This is called price action trading. Since trades are based on objective data, traders are provided with a reason to engage the market. These main concepts are the foundation of the day trading education provided by Day Trade to Win’s Private Mentorship Program. In addition to recognizing price patterns, attention is paid to time of day, how time influences the market, along with news events. Furthermore, trading coach John Paul provides multiple stop strategies for every trade, ensuring proper risk management for every entry. Finally, each price action technique taught during the eight weeks serves to provide the trader with a complete map for trading every day of the week.
