High Profit - Low Risk Stock Trading

Stock, Options and Futures Trading is no different than any other business. If you want to learn how to consistently make money in the market, you have to approach it like you would any other business you were starting. Whether you plan to do it full time or part time, you need to understand the basics of running a successful, competitive trading business, even if you are just trading your own account. Remember, in business, if you fail to plan, you plan to fail.

Steve Wheeler and David Johnson of NaviTrader, Inc. will provide an educational session on trading. Following the methods they will teach you in this session, Their methods do not use day trading; in fact, you can put your orders in the night before and never look at the market again until the next night for stocks and futures or the next week for options. Furthermore, they will teach you how to NEVER risk more than 1% of your equity on any stock trade and still make these returns.

This educational session will show traders how to design highly profitable trading setups, manage their stop losses and profit targets effectively, and control their emotions to make consistent money trading stocks. Most professional traders have reliable patterns that they trade over and over to consistently make money. The details of how to recognize these patterns and how to test them for profitability will be revealed. Professionals always use stops, and they use a defined methodology for managing their stops and profit targets. Steve and David will show you how to do the same thing. Putting the right amount of money into each trade is critically important and you will be shown the optimum formula for calculating this critical ingredient. Most importantly, you will be shown the steps you must take to achieve discipline in your trading, which will enable you to gain control over fear and greed. This is absolutely the hardest part of trading (contrary to popular belief), and you will learn valuable techniques to conquer your greatest enemy...yourself.

Steve and David will use interactive presentation materials with professional graphics and video for some of the session, but the format will also include audience participation and ample opportunities to ask questions. All aspects of trading will be covered, including designing a trading plan, exact order placement with direct access brokers (such as Interactive Brokers), and how to select the best stocks to trade. Come prepared with all of your questions and we will make every attempt to answer all of them either during the session or immediately afterwards.

Some of the topics that will be covered include:

    • How to recognize chart patterns that have more winners than losers, with larger winners.
    • How to configure your buy and sell stop orders so they execute the way YOU choose.
    • How to consistently make money even when the market is going up, down, or not moving at all.
    • The only three chart indicators you need to make money.
    • The one optimum way to determine the number of shares to buy for each trade.
    • How to know where to set your stop loss orders.
    • How to set your profit target orders.
    • Exactly how to keep your profits by moving your stops each day.
    • How to create a detailed daily trading plan, and how to follow it.
    • What kind of trading records you need to keep and how to create them.
    • How to construct a daily checklist, just like a pilot's checklist, that keeps you on course.
    • What services and features to look for in a broker that are critical to your success.
    • Calculating the effects of commissions and account size on your returns.
    • How to change your behavior so that you have a likelihood of winning.
    • How to positively avoid big losses, the single biggest reason most people lose money.
    • How to control Fear and Greed, the two biggest causes of account meltdowns.
    • How to keep a daily trading log that helps you become a better trader.
    • How to let the market "tip its hand" to get you into a position.
    • What are all the elements you need to run your trading like a business.

When you complete this session, you will know how to spend 15 to 30 minutes a day, after market hours if you choose, and consistently make over 150% a year. This meeting will be fast-paced and chock full of valuable information you will not find anywhere else. The experts and professionals know that the secrets to making money in the stock market are money management, profitable patterns, and consistent trading discipline, and that all three must be integrated into a unified methodology. This is what you will learn to do at this meeting.  Space is limited and we expect a large turnout for this informative session. If you do not register, we cannot guarantee you a seat at the session, so don't delay! We look forward to seeing you!

Starting your own trading business is a serious endeavor. Like every business, traders have many expenses. One of the largest and most important expenses for a trading business is brokerage expense. Not only can this item be your largest expense by far, it can easily be the difference between making money for you or making money for your broker. Between the two of them, David Johnson and Steve Wheeler of NaviTrader Inc. ( www.navitrader.com ) have had accounts at 13 different brokerage firms. They have listened to all the promises, and put the brokers to the test. One firm stands out in the two most important areas. They feature one of the absolutely lowest commission rates in the industry (1 cent/share up to 500 shares, then ˝ cent over 500 shares), and their real time platform offers the most sophisticated execution and risk management options available anywhere in the industry. The firm they now use exclusively is Interactive Brokers (IB). They have found this firm’s platform to be such a tremendous enabler to profitable trading, that they are offering this 3-hour in-depth session on how to maximize the use of this great trading platform. Please note that David and Steve have no financial arrangement with Interactive Brokers; they are just trying to help people avoid the many mistakes they made with the many other brokerage firms.

This session will provide you everything you need to know to use the IB Traders Workstation (TWS) to successfully trade Stocks, Options, and Futures, and do so in the same account. Every aspect will be covered, especially the features that are not available anywhere else in the industry. They will cover the basics of how to set up the TWS and subscribe to Market data, as well as the more sophisticated topics including:

    • How to enter many more orders than you have funds to cover, and guarantee that you only execute on the best performing stocks for that day.
    • How to configure the Interactive Brokers Trader Workstation for your own personal tastes and trading style, maximizing your productivity.
    • How to configure your buy and sell stop orders so they execute they way YOU choose.
    • How to enter your stop loss and profit target orders, before you ever even get into a position, ensuring you are always controlling your risk.
    • How to use special order types to minimize entry and exit slippage, the downfall of many traders.

    • How to enter all your conditional entry and stop orders for the next market day the night before, so you never have to watch the market to get into or protect positions or take profits.
    • How to configure a special page layout for each trading vehicle – Stocks, Options, or Futures, that minimizes order entry mistakes.
    • How to monitor your buying power in real time, to take maximum advantage of your trading capital.
    • How to create basket orders of stocks, enabling better risk management and pair trading.
    • Setting alarms/alerts to signal you to take timely action.
    • How to use the ‘Price Wand’ to rapidly change prices without manual order entry.
    • Configuring your TWS with the proper defaults to minimize order entry and minimize mistakes.
    • How to determine your available margin, and how the day trading rules apply to your account.
    • How to practice entering orders using the Interactive Brokers Demo system. This demo system will allow you to learn how to enter the various order types without risking real money.
    • How to view your historical account information and keep accurate records.

A complete workbook will be provided detailing the various features provided by the IB TWS. This gives each participant a valuable reference guide to use daily during their trading. This  session including the workbook is being offered for only $99. Any one of the items they will cover will save you that much in a trade or two.

We encourage everyone not familiar with direct execution software, or seasoned traders, to attend this informative session. You will learn what really works, and how to take advantage of it to make more profit. Only a limited number of seats are available, on a first come, first served basis.

Once the seats fill up, we will not take anymore registrations. Our last Interactive Brokers Session sold out, and the feedback from participants was it was the best session on trading they had been to due to its wealth of real-trading-world practical advice. Animated Powerpoint slides and video segments showing actual step-by-step instructions make this session immediately useful in making you money. We look forward to seeing you there!
