The way to make money in daytrading is to first identify high probability trading days. Then ride a big move for all its worth. Our system averages about 10 trades per month.

Our daytrade system tries to capture only the major
move of the day via a maximum of 2 trades per day.

The market moves in waves of 3 to 5 days. It doesn't move in a straight line. Our "Price Trend Indicator", PTI identifies overbought and oversold conditions. Overbought markets are candidates to sell short. Oversold markets are long candidates. Our first trade entry method is an "opening range breakout". We will buy a certain distance above the open and sell short a certain distance below the open. In overbought conditions, as identified by our proprietary "PTI"indicator, we move the sell entry in tight and the buy entry moves farther out. Making it easier to sell an overbought market. The opposite applies to oversold markets.

I think our Daytrade system is a profitable and proven system,
a simple, logical design to day trading.

The major trend of the day can sometimes change direction. This is most likely to happen at the highs and lows of the last three or four days, or after gap openings. These are sometimes labeled "key reversal days". This is happening more and more in recent years as the volatility of the market has increased. Our "Superior Clear-Out Reversal Enhancement" entry tries to identify these reversals and get in the trade as the new move begins. Finally, the risk of trading changes everyday. So should your stop losses. Our system uses "Dynamic Risk Exposure Stops". They will change everyday as the risk of trading changes.
