Automated Trading Crude Oil and Euro Futures Review
Hi guys,
We just released the newest version of our Automated Trading Strategy, version 1.9 which is changing the way we think of automated trading as a whole.
We will be introducing the idea of ‘computer-assisted’ day trading as a way to continue to provide resources for our clients to use every day in their trading.
Version 1.9 will allow me to scale out of a position by hand…the strategy gets me into the trade, but then I can exit the trade, or any of the contract in the position, whenever I chose, which gives tremendous flexibility to our trading results.
You will be seeing a LOT more of the new version 1.9 of the Auto trader, but today lets see how our fully-automated trading strategy, version 1.5 has been doing this month.
Lets look at the Euro first. One of the easiest to use, this only requires $500 per contract for margins, so many of our new clients will start on this contract first.
Lets review the monthly totals on this.
We earned $5400usd per contract in the past 30 days of trading this simple fully-automated strategy. The short side you can see made most of the money, and we only used 1.21% of drawdown (approx $2500usd) so you only need a min of $2500 in the account to trade this.
2500 needed to earn $5400….sounds good to me! That’s per contract too!
The aspect that impresses me MOST about this auto trader on the Euro is the LACK of trades. Look…only 0.65 trades per day, only 20 trades in a month! Your broker doesn’t like it, but we love it!
It’s very clear the Euro is one of our big winners on this, and you can easily use this too. We provide templates that make it very easy to set it all up.
Lets take a look at crude oil futures, one of our favorite markets to day trade, our automated strategy also works very well.
In the past 30 days this strategy has earned $3400 per contract. You can see the draw-downs were almost nothing, only 1.5%, which means only $3,000usd needed on this type of trading.
One of the best things, it never over-trades, and you can see an average of 0.61 trades per day with only 19 trades used to take this profit from the market.
Low draw-down, no over-trading, and with Version 1.9 you can even scale out of this by hand as YOU see fit.
Don’t forget, we will be doing a detailed review of this in our members training on Wednesday @ 1130am est. come join us as a client, and start using this today..
See you tomorrow in our training !
