Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a lot of money? No, a few thousand is enough capital to begin training for your new career. This should be money you can afford to lose, because you will lose some of it. Fortunately, you can use simulated trading, which is exactly like real trading; so you get a realistic experience without risking any money. Gradually you will progress to a very limited live trading, with strictly controlled gains and losses. Do I need to know about trading? It helps if you are already a trader. However, this is such a different technique of trading that existing skills can actually get in the way of your learning. If you are bright and motivated, you can learn all you need to know about futures scalping. You don't need to know anything about what futures are; just how to buy and sell contracts like "cans of beans". HOW CAN I GET STARTED? Send an email to FutureScalper@gmail.com . Explain your interest, any experience you already have and whether you feel that scalping or daytrading suits your trading style. If you are a futures scalper, then state what instruments you scalp and a bit about how you do things now. IF it seems you have "the right stuff", then you will be invited to subscribe, and will be given access to the software and guidance you need to succeed. If not, you will be advised that this program may not be suitable for you. What is scalping? Scalping is a very specialized activity, one which has gotten a "bad name", mostly because the required tools, analysis, charting and order execution, are not available. First of all, scalping is best considered to be "continuous trading", where the trader profits frequently from smaller moves. In doing so, the trader takes smaller risks, goes for smaller gains, and strictly controls losses. Scalping daytraders hold no positions overnight, so they sleep very well. Why consider scalping? Continuous trading or scalping offers smaller wins (and hopefully few losses), so that there are no big surprises. By refusing to hold a position overnight, there are no large risks and no surprises in the morning. More importantly, when most traders see no opportunities at all, the FutureScalper scalper can be trading successfully and incrementally increasing equity. Why special software? Scalping requires very fast realtime indicators with a level of precision far higher than "1 minute" or "3 minute" bars / candlesticks. Entirely new indicators must be created which are capable of informing the trader that a position is either a good one or a poor one, and it is this level of precise indicator that NO software in existence is able to provide, other than FutureScalper. Why Futures? With a very small account size, the individual trader can buy long or sell short repeatedly, all day long. This is "daytrading". In stock markets, however, there are restrictions on short selling and especially large account requirements in order to daytrade. Futures are never held to expiration, but are simply items bought or sold by the trader. They might as well be called "shares", but they are referred to as "contracts". Because futures move usually through a single unified exchange, there is not the variability in price and disadvantages which are present in the stock markets. Also, many futures are closely tied to underlying equities for those who are interested in the general market. What are Market Makers? Market Makers, or MM's control the markets and offer "liquidity" by bidding and offering so that retail players always find a "market" and can always buy and sell. However, Market Makers have advantages which no ordinary trader can ever hope to have. Successful trading involves discovering where the MM's are going to move the market; and clues to their intentions are provided by the extremely sensitive analysis of FutureScalper. With FutureScalper we "get inside the heads" of the Market Makers, and can better predict where they are planning to move price. Can individual scalpers prosper? Yes, definitely, but only with the level of technological sophistication provided by FutureScalper. Analysis is specialized, charting is specialized and order execution is also focussed entirely on the precision of scalping for profit. What is FutureScalper's most powerful feature? Well, there is no single feature; rather a combination of being able to measure the "commitment of traders" (aka Market Makers) against the retail players; as well as the additional uniqueness of evaluating key Market Depth (aka The Order Book) indicators which has never before been attempted by any software we've ever heard of. There are so many unique features that learning FutureScalper is a complete "re-education" of the trader in the area of factors which drive short term price movements. How are losses controlled? Well, the obvious answer is through "stops". However, stops are very damaging when they're hit, and so we advocate avoiding being stopped out at all costs, and managing trades using a few basic techniques which turn loss positions into break-even or profitable situations. Training or coaching is a big part of the solution, as well as having good strong Analysis supporting trade entries, and having fast semi-automatic triggers which give you an advantage on each entry and exit.
