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

June 6, 2021 by AFT

In this week’s 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. This is done using AFT7 trading in demonstration mode on the live futures market with the NinjaTrader Platform, trading the NYSE session open.

Please visit the link for TrendOmeter.

Note that the TrendOmeter settings filtered out bad trades and allowed 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 real-time and saved. With session open breakout trading, the number of trade signals and opportunities will be less than when used in a trend reversal and pullback continuation scenario, which allows trades to be taken further away or anywhere on the chart using a smaller time frame.

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

Risk Disclosure: Futures, CFDs, & forex trading carry substantial risk and are not suitable for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing one's financial security or lifestyle. Only risk capital should be used for trading, and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Please read the full risk disclosure here.

Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or adhere to a particular trading program despite trading losses are material points that can adversely affect actual trading results. Numerous other factors related to the markets or the implementation of any specific trading program cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and can adversely affect trading results.
