Getting Started

Elements for a Cohesive System

Let's talk about bringing all the elements together to make one cohesive system. What are some of the things you need to know?

I started by learning:

* When to Trade, What Timeframes to Trade and WHY! (not to mention when NOT to trade)

* The Magic Trading Formula-Secrets to setting Profit Targets, Risk and Finding Key Levels

* The Power of Quitting and Money Management Principles

* Finding the key Trading Resources

* How to Play Trading Mind Games

* What to Avoid When Trading and How to Avoid the Traps Most Investors Fall Into

Seems pretty basic I know, but mastering these topics is a great place to start. There is a good resource. These topics are covered through a video, or if you prefer listening or reading you can download an mp3 or transcript of the video. It's titled the "7 Secrets."

These topics are then covered and reinforced through a webinar. It's free to attend and it's a great place to ask questions in real-time to experienced traders. They have it every week and you can sign up here: http://www.universalmarkettrader.com/

Another good resource I just found through this company is a video they just released talking directly about how to achieve the trading edge. http://www.umttrading.com/tradingedge/

Now, once you've checked out all of that. You can set-up a free trial and really start putting it all together. http://www.netpicks.com/Free_Trial.htm

I hope you learn how to become a consistent profitable trader. We know not every trade will be a winning one, but if your WINS outweigh your LOSSES you're off to a great start. By covering the basics you can build a good system. Again it's about finding the right trading strategy, trading platform, and trading system.
