AFT Trader John Weekly Trade Video Episode 4 – Trendometer with session breakout

by

In this weeks Algo Futures Trading Live Update AFT John demonstrates how to use the TrendOmeter and AlphaBias trend correlation system as a trade filter for both long and short trades using AFT7 trading in demonstration mode on the live futures market using NinjaTrader Platform and AFT trading the NYSE session open.

Please visit the links for TrendOmeter

Note the TrendOmeter settings filtered out good trades and allow through good trades as it was set tight at 50%, this is a stringent setting when used with a session breakout system and can be easily altered in realtime and saved. With session open breakout trading, the amount of trade signals and opportunity will be less than when used in a trend reversal and pullback continuation scenario which will allow trades to be taken further away or anywhere on the chart and using a smaller time frame.

As you can see we don’t cherry pick or cut, edit videos as John recollected “the system still made money overall that day using trendometer and there will be days where it will filter out lots of bad trades and some days where it filters out good.”

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, use 1 workspace at a time is the best practice.
Follow the live market and trade from 9.30 NYSE EST for 3 hours or so.
Less is more only trade 1 to 3 signals per instrument per session

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

Trading Tips:
Note the look and feel of days that are successful and losing days
Avoid fear and 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 market price cycles are not your fault or the systems -trending days and choppy range bound consolidation slow days
  • There might only be 12 to 15 good market days per month and 5 horrendous – so why trade them if you can learn to see them prior or as they trade.
  • Better to learn to sit out and watch and understand the cycles instead of try to over trade. Record 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 market -directionless.
