Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What Futures Symbols Will I get Alerts On?
A: To kick off the initial launch of this brand-new program – we’re starting off with Alerts on ES. You can also trade the MES Micro Contract using the same Alerts. The logic and computations are specifically calibrated based on the behavior of ES. Each Futures symbol has a different “personality” and down the road we will add additional symbols. If you like to trade other instruments besides ES, then this could be the perfect addition to your tool-set. Diversify your trading with the Power Trend System and MES.
Q: Do I have to trade with a specific broker or on a certain platform?
A: No. The signal software delivers real-time Alerts to your Desktop and you execute the trades with your current broker. It provides the EXACT levels for Entry, initial stop, trailing stops and targets – so all you have to do is execute the trades using the information the software provides.
Q: Is there an “indicator” I can put on my charts?
A: Not just yet. We will be creating a “companion indicator” for various platforms in the future, but the basic premise of the Alert Software itself is that it’s a stand-alone, platform-independent signal device that runs in its own little Window on your machine – and it’s simple to trade the alerts no matter what trading platform you’re using. When we do release the “companion indicator” down the road, we’ll include it for current users at no extra charge. However that’s when the price will increase for new users.
Q: When you say the system is fully-automated does that mean it makes my trades for me?
A: No, you place your own trades at your existing broker using your current platform. The Alert Software that runs on your Desktop is simply a “receiver” – it displays the data that’s produced by our back-end system – which is totally automated. However you can program ATM strategies on your platform that make trading along with our alerts a snap.
Most platforms these days allow you to set up an ATM strategy to simplify the executions and prevent order-entry mistakes. Trading Futures using our state-of-the-art signal generator combined with the ease of using an ATM strategy will remove the stress that comes with discretionary trading.
Q: Is it as simple as getting an alert and taking the trade? Sounds too easy.
A: When we’re day trading a fast moving market, we need to have a “heads-up” so we’ll have plenty of time to react. (That’s why our software comes with audio alerts). When the system is sensing the price is approaching a valid Entry level it will send out an audio signal and display a “can’t miss” Pending Alert at the top of the screen. That’s when you know a Trade entry might be imminent and you want to “get ready”. We’ll show you how to incorporate our “Entry Trigger” strategy so you will know exactly when to pull the trigger and when NOT to pull the trigger on a trade.
Q: What trading hours does your system run?
A: The Power Trend System comes online at the Cash Open (9:30 AM Eastern) and runs until the 4:00 close. Most days it issues 1-2 Trade Alerts and stays on until both Targets get hit, after which it will go dormant for the rest of the session. Alerts can fire-off anytime during the session, however there are no alerts in the first 15-minutes of trading. If there’s no active trade or alert at 2:30 Eastern time, the system will go offline for the rest of the session. The system will issue a maximum of 3 “filled” Alerts per day. Some days the first Alert will be in the first 15-30 minutes and other days the first Alert might be an hour or two into the session. It all depends on how the price action unfolds.
Q: Do you also provide technical support and training?
A: Yes – both. As soon as you order the Power Trend System we will email you step-by-step download instructions for the software and if you need any help getting set up we are here to assist. It’s honestly as easy as “installing an app” and takes about 2-minutes. But if you need assistance we will get you up and running – even if it requires remoting into your computer and installing it for you.
We have an entire website dedicated to documentation and training. We have tons of information to help you get started. And of course you can always email us with questions and we will be happy to help you out – day or night – 7 days a week. Trade the system on SIM for the first week and go over the documentation as you watch its behavior over multiple market sessions. Follow our detailed Trade Plan and you’ll have it mastered in no time.
Q: What if I try it out and don’t like it – how do I cancel?
A: Here’s how it works. For $99 you commit to testing our software / signals for 1-month. We set you up in the user database, email you the download instructions, and provide extensive documentation. We’ll answer any questions you have and help you get set up if you need assistance.
Computer generated trade signals are one thing, but you still need the execution strategy and money-management techniques that go along with trading the signals. We recommend you give yourself a little time to take it all in. We’ve created a highly-sophisticated, institutional-grade trading system and you will need some initial exposure before you start trading real money. That’s why it’s imperative to trade the system on sim for at least the first week or so. Once you have completely convinced yourself you can drastically increase your point gains, the $99 monthly software license will seem trivial.
However if at any time you decide “it’s not for you” simply shoot us an email and we will immediately remove you from the billing and you will never be charged again. We don’t do refunds on the 1st month – consider that “skin in the game” but after that there is no obligation. Cancel anytime and you will never be billed again.
Q: If I get in at the $99 per month rate will you raise my price in the future?
A: No. Once you join you are locked-in at the current $99/ month rate, which includes everything, and all future upgrades and enhancements. When we release the “companion indicator” we will be increasing the price to $199 / mo (which is still a bargain). If you join today, you’re Grandfathered-in at this price for as long as you wish to use the program. We never raise the price on existing customers.
Take the plunge and get signed up today and give our Automated E-Mini Signals a try for a month… it’s super easy to do. After the first week following our trade signals you may want to kick yourself, wondering why you waited around so long to get started!
