**NOTE**
Due to the excessive volatility currently being seen in the market, our "system" trades are firing less frequently and we're typically only trading half positions to lessen risk.  During extreme volatility capital preservation is more important than excess return.

However, the "system" is just a fraction of what we teach. 

We focus mainly on helping traders identify the directional bias of the market (where is it heading both in the next few days and more importantly in the next few minutes) and we focus on showing traders how to use our tools (the EMDT software) to find high probability trades in any market condition.

Disclaimer:
As required by law we must state the following:
Futures trading has large potential rewards, but also large potential risk. You must be aware of the risks and be willing to accept them in order to invest in the futures markets. Don't trade with money you can't afford to lose. This is neither a solicitation nor an offer to Buy/Sell futures. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those discussed on this web site. The past performance of any trading system or methodology is not necessarily indicative of future results.

Trading involves risk. Only use risk capital when trading futures.
Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under or over-compensated for the impact, if any, certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.
