Charts
that
talk can help improve your trading
If
you’re short on time, but still need
to know exactly what the chart is saying, I recommend you watch the
video below on a new Talking Chart system.
A
patent is pending on this technology and the
users of the Talking Charts have flooded the company with emails and
phone calls of praise. The technology reads and analyzes the details of
the chart, then dictates the analysis right to you. As an added bonus
you’ll hear from 3 different HUMAN voices! No robots here.
Just great chart analysis to go along with very powerful charts.

COMMON TYPES OF TRADING ORDERS
The Market Order
A market order is the simplest of orders and is used when the greatest
priority of the customer is for immediate execution. A market order
instructs your broker to buy or sell futures contracts immediately at
the market price, the best possible price for immediate execution.
Market orders are the easiest way to enter or exit a market since the
customer receives immediate execution - and must pay or receive
whatever price is necessary for immediate execution.
The
Limit Order
A limit order is like a market order with one exception, price takes
the highest priority. For limit buy orders, the customer includes,
along with the type and quantity of futures contracts to purchase, a
maximum price to pay for the contracts. A customer will use a limit buy
order if they desire to buy the futures contract, but want to pay no
more than a specified price - the limit price. This price is always
below the prevailing market price, since the customer would have
otherwise entered a market order.
The
Stop Order
A stop order, like a limit order, is only executed once a specific
price is reached, but the motivation for the transaction is different.
Whereas the limit order is typically used to enter into a futures
position at a specific price, a stop order is usually used to exit or
close a futures position at a specific price. Stop orders are most
often used to close a position that is losing money, and are hence
regarded as a useful risk management tool. A stop order to buy has a
price that is above the market price and would be used by a customer
having a short futures position. If prices rise so that loss accrues on
the customer's short position, the stop loss provides a limit to the
loss - as soon as prices rise to the stop price, the order is executed
as a market order. Similarly, a stop order to sell has a price that is
below the market price and would be used by a customer having a long
futures position. If prices fall so that loss accrues on the customer's
long position, the stop loss provides a limit to the loss - as soon as
prices fall to the stop price, the order is executed, thereby closing
out the initial long position.

Buying Options on Futures Contracts
Although
futures
contracts have been traded on U.S. exchanges since 1865, options on
futures contracts were not introduced until 1982. Today, options on
futures contracts offer a wide and diverse range of potentially
attractive investment opportunities. This booklet is designed to
provide you with a basic understanding of options on futures contracts
- what they are, how they work and the opportunities and risks involved
in trading them.
Options on Futures
With
options on futures,
traders can construct strategies that profit in advancing, declining or
even stable markets, while at the same time reducing risk and
increasing leverage. However, before you incorporate options into your
trading and risk management decisions, you should thoroughly
investigate the risks, nomenclature and strategic uses of these
instruments. The more background you have in options, the more likely
you will be able to take full advantage of these powerful financial
instruments.
Futures & Options Strategy Guide
With the
many futures
and options strategies available to the trader, it is sometimes hard to
keep track of them all. This 49-page Strategy Guide illustrates 21
trading strategies in an easy-to-analyse, graphical format. It starts
with basic, simple strategies and progresses to more sophisticated
option-related strategies like butterfly spreads, ratio spreads and
box/conversions. It cross-references each strategy with market
sentiment, whether bullish, bearish, or neutral and with volatility,
whether rising or falling. For each trade, it details the break-even
point, risk and potential gain at expiration as well as "things to
watch" along the way. This Guide is a great reference for any trader.
