Automated Futures Day Trader Trend Scalper Turnkey Workspace for AFT7

by

Announcing a new workspace: “AFT Trend Trader Scalper-1001A-Generic-Micros” and “AFT Trend Trader Scalper-1001B-Generic-Micros” for trend scalping with the TrendOmeter filter system to allow many signal opportunities. This was in response to demand for a turnkey workspace that fits better with multi-time frame filter directional bias and TrendOmeter usage. The AFT Session Breakout System may have too few trade signals and miss out on too many good trades for some traders. This new day trading futures trend scalper setup will provide many signals per session and allow trading anywhere on the chart, up or down, without restriction. All filters are off—no traffic light filters, no trading zone filter—only the optional TrendOmeter filter, or the user can set long or short bias in real-time. Here is the initial draft, and it will be added to the Templates Installer. Consider it experimental and aimed at experienced traders who want to use the real-time interactive controls and trade man and machine hybrid automated trading.

The latest AFT7 Workspace version is now 2021.6.7.1. The main program AFT7 version is now 2021.5.25.4 and in most cases should automatically update when NinjaTrader 7 is restarted. However, some antivirus software might prevent this from occurring. To manually update your AFT7 to the latest version, simply visit the AFT downloads, download and run the AFT7 Universal Installer, or you can simply run the AFT7 Templates Installer to select additional options.

WARNING: Please note running the universal installer will close all NinjaTrader platforms running on your PC, including NinjaTrader 8, if running. Running the AFT7 Settings installer can be done with NinjaTrader running; it will not affect it.

Guide to get started with AFT7 day trading

by

Recommended Path for Getting Started with AFT7

To get started trading with AFT after installation, focus only on the session breakout workspace. Using one workspace at a time is the best practice. Follow the live market and trade from 9:30 AM NYSE EST for about three hours. Less is more; only trade one to three signals per instrument per session.

Starting out with MES is likely easier than MNQ. Save your own workspace and edit your preferred stops, targets, settings, etc. Start small, understand the controls, and system features.

Trading Tips:
Note the look and feel of successful and losing days. Avoid fear, greed, and impatience.

When to Trade and When to Sit Out?

  • Understand when to trade: market directional momentum, price analysis on higher time frames, and schedule of market-moving events.
  • Accept that market price cycles are not your fault or the system’s—trending days and choppy range-bound consolidation slow days.
  • There might only be 12 to 15 good market days per month and five horrendous ones—so why trade them if you can learn to see them prior or as they trade?
  • Better to learn to sit out, watch, and understand the cycles instead of trying to overtrade. Keep a log and note the high-probability days and the losing days. What was the context and pretext?
  • Note the calendar cycle of each new year, quarter, month, week, and day—can you use that for higher accuracy?
  • Use the Trendometer and Market Analyzer to assist and look to trade with correlation for indices of trending confluence rather than a messy, directionless market.

AFT: How It Works

There are four basic ways to trade futures with the AFT system: manual/semi/fully automated entry mode + automatic position trade exit management:

  • NYSE Session Open Breakout
  • Trend Reversal Trading
  • Manual Trade Momentum Trading
  • Manual OCO Breakout

Workspace turnkey settings are provided for that purpose. Simply install and open the system which appeals most.

AFT7 – How to use the pre-installed Turnkey AFT7 Session Open Breakout Trading system in real-time live market data – 100% risk-free on the NinjaTrader simulator.

This demonstration uses 3 lots trading Micro Futures #MNQ, #MYM, #MES, #M2K. More lots can be added. This demonstrates a minimal amount to day trade on small accounts. Less is more, aiming for about 1 to 3 trade signal operations, long or short, per session trading from 9:30 EST to about 12:30 EST. Trading this approach for 1 to 3 hours is all you need. Trade 3 days per week; some days you might sit out to evaluate the price cycles or higher time frame price analysis, or sit on the side, then go in when the market correlation and direction are clean and clear.

Please note this is all 100% free for sim, demo, replay, and practice accounts. Simply download and install AFT7 for free from the website, install, connect, and trade. Open the turnkey ready-to-trade sim session breakout system for micro futures indices. When the charts are loaded, simply enable automated trading.

You can install and open any workspace provided that suits you. Simply wait until you are a minute or so away from the pending news release. Click the OCO button and then make sure the entry long and short are in the technical position as you like.

Now wait for the market trend momentum and price to fill one of the entry orders. The One Cancels Other (OCO) means the other order will be canceled. The AFT7 automatic trade management module will then place the trade exit orders and automatically scale out and trail the stop loss.
