5 Days of FTSE 100 Atlas Line Signals
February 25, 2011
Here's five days in a row showing how well (or not so well) the Atlas Line works in other markets. There's no optimization – it's all internally calculated. Let's look at the FTSE 100 performance consecutively. Day one had three good orders. More good orders appeared on days two, three, four and four. The fifth day had a nice long order. The Euro, gold, oil – it all works. The included customer-only webinar ensures that you fully understand how to use the software with NinjaTrader.
2 Days Of Euro Currency (6E) Trades
February 23, 2011
A Dbl Long order appeared at 1.3735. In the included how-to webinar, you'll learn how these signals work. After this, an Atlas Line Pullback trade occurred. A couple of bars pulled back, then a bar closed that reaffirmed the trend. That was the entry point for the second trade. We had a number of bounce signals for another long trade. Remember to use the ATR (Average True Range) for the profit target. If there's a close on the other side, that would be a short trade. Take a look at all the bounce signals the day before.
6 Ticks ATO (At the Open) Real-time Trade
February 7, 2011
Today, let's look at an ATO (At the Open) trade. Even though there's an Atlas Line trade, forget about that signal for now. For over five years, traders have been using the ATO method on the E-mini. It's also been in use on other markets. When trading using only price action, there are a couple of important tools. The bar timer is important, as it lets you know when the candles are opening and closing. The ATR dictates the profit target and stop loss. Look at the real-time ATO trade and keep watching to see what happens.
Live Webinar – Part 6, Q&A from Traders
February 4, 2011
John Paul clarifies Atlas Line signals, discussing the how the Atlas Line works in conjunction with the ABC method. Take a look at the real-time charts for the 6E, CL, ZN, ZB, and more. You can scalp the market in the same direction as the Atlas Line, however, you should change the scalping direction when the Atlas Line changes direction. There's a pullback trade on the ZB. This would have been a nice long trade. To see the signal text above the candles, remember to change the Z-Order. Click the signal and use the mouse wheel while holding the shift key.
Live Webinar – Part 5, ABC Strategy Explained
February 4, 2011
The E-mini market often behaves differently in three distinct sections of the day. In the morning, markets tend to be more volatile. In the afternoon, it slows down. Towards the close, it's still often slow but a late-day rally or sell-off can make things volatile. How can you take advantage of each section? The free ABC day trading strategy, of course. The first 2.5 hours is the A section. Look for breakouts that occur in B based on the price action in section A. NinjaTrader's drawing tools make it easy.
Live Webinar – Part 4, Stop Loss Strategies
February 4, 2011
A time-based stop says that four consecutive bars on a 5-min chart is a good time to get out. You get out at whatever price that is, which could be a smaller profit, break-even, or loss that's less than the catastrophic stop. A catastrophic stop is about double the ATR. It's like a safety net in case the market becomes really volatile. The prove-it is when a bar closes on the opposite side of the Atlas Line. Remember, there are no guarantees when trading. Trading is always risky and you need to be careful.
Live Webinar – Part 3, Atlas Line Pullbacks
February 4, 2011
When does a pullback trade occur? Look for two consecutive candles that trade opposite of where the Atlas Line is recommending. If this does not occur, there's no trade. Remember, finding a reason to take a trade should be more important that finding a reason to stay out. Another important rule, the pullback trades should be at a greater level than the last pullback trade. The market needs to qualify each time. Price action trading needs to be objective, especially with fast-moving markets like the E-mini (ES).
Live Webinar – Part 2, FDAX & FESX
February 4, 2011
John Paul breaks down how he uses price to tell him what his profit target should be and how each trade should be handled. He scrolls through multiple 5-min candles on the E-mini chart, explaining how an Atlas Line trade would have occurred as through you were trading it under live conditions. There's no need to add Bollinger Bands, Keltner channels, MACD indicators, Fibonacci values, etc. Simply use price on the chart in conjunction with a tool like the Atlas Line. The FDAX and FESX markets are shown with nice short moves.
