E-Mini S&P Day Trading Videos – Learn to Trade

Going a step beyond most day trading educators, John Paul from Day Trade to Win often trades live in his videos. Above is no exception, although even more unique because the trade was taken while training a student. For those unfamiliar with what is being shown, John is using NinjaTrader and trading the E-Mini (ES) with a 5-Minute time frame. His commercially available Atlas Line software provides a direction of whether you should long or short (buy or sell) the market. The Atlas Line is recognizable by its dashed line and brightly colored entry signals. There is more to the method than simply entries. John teaches stops and profit targets along with other unique entries exclusive to the software. Yes, the Atlas Line is a complete system of trading – ideal as a standalone method or to be coupled with another system for confirmation. The software is available for TradeStation and eSignal as well. John will teaches everything you need to know during the included live training session.

If you’re interested in the eight week Mentorship Program, the Atlas Line is included along with 10 other unique strategies to trade price. The goal of this comprehensive course is to take advantage of every high-probability trade setup while keeping an eye on risk. Becoming a professional day trader involves a great deal of experience and self-control. Get a head start on becoming a professional day trader.

This video shows a trader named Tony who switched from tape reading and technical analysis to trading based on price. He cites credit to his success so far (albeit in simulation mode) to Day Trade to Win’s eight week coaching program, Private Mentorship. As a student, Tony learned more than eight ways to trade price action. He prefers using a five-minute chart (also preferred by Tony’s teacher, John Paul) over the scalping methods. So far, Tony’s results have been very positive and plans to start trading live tomorrow. He says he has every indication that his success will continue with a live account. As we’ve noticed, NinjaTrader’s simulation mode usually accounts for the “feel” of triggering fills last, when in fact during live trading, fill rates seem to improve. When an experienced trader who has seen and tried it all finally finds something that works, it speaks volumes. To get the same education as Tony, you can become a Private Mentorship student for eight weeks or attend a webinar (usually conducted by Day Trade to Win on Thursday mornings). Changing your trading account / life around is likely a priority for the new year. As Tony has indicated, this live coaching program is a promising step in that direction.

The last few days on the E-Mini have been difficult for traders. Choppy price action and the last FOMC meeting of the year are to blame. However, Day Trade to Win’s Private Mentorship Program plowed right through the unpredictability by using many methods of engagement. As seen in the video, John Paul shows how the Atlas Line, Blueprint Trade, Roadmap Trade, X-5 and others produced consistent profit over the course of several days. Traders are taught these exact methods of trading during the eight weeks of live training with John Paul. The next group session begins January 5, 2012. Early registration is open and encouraged through a reduced 2011 price. In addition to live training, students are provided with all software and written, digital courses. Each training session is recorded for future playback; thereby enforcing an understanding of the material.

The Atlas Line provides traders with long and short order signals, determines the expected direction of price with a plotted angled line, and has a few custom trade setups that compliment the tool. John Paul, founder of Day Trade to Win and creator of the Atlas Line, coaches traders on how to use the trading tool free with purchase in the form of a webinar. He also conducts presentations whereby traders can request the Atlas Line to be display on markets of their choosing. John Paul’s favorite markets to trade with the Atlas Line are the Emini, Euro, CAD, Russell, AUD and other currencies and futures.

The video above showcases trades taken August 1 and August 2 (last two days) in which the Atlas Line successfully called out multiple short trades that were worth quite a bit of money with price tanking. The Atlas Line caught the initial short moves which appeared shortly after market open, but the “indicator” didn’t stop there. Multiple pullback trades occurred, which further confirmed profitable short trades. Did you know which side of the market to be on? Did the markets make or break your account the last few days?

Below, you’ll find a live recording from this morning’s Atlas Line webinar with founder of Day Trade to Win, John Paul. He shows that the price action methods he teaches are for real, as there is no mistaking a live, moving market. The E-Mini, Russell, Crude Light and Euro Currency markets each display the Atlas Line software, plotted and giving order signals in real time. The Atlas Line lets traders to know how and when to enter the market: either long or short and at what price. To exit trades, John teaches how to use the ATR (Average True Range) software provided with NinjaTrader. The ATR comes in similar forms for other platforms supported by the Atlas Line like TradeStation and eSignal. In the webinar that’s included with purchase, JP shows traders a few price action setups that accompany the Atlas Line.

Also, yesterday’s price action on the E-Mini market was great for trading. I’m sure you saw how the E-Mini was on the rise within the first 15 minutes and then steadily declined in price for the rest of the day. When the market falls so quickly, traders can expect to see similar behavior in the surround days. There’s no better time to buy the Atlas Line.

John Paul from Day Trade to Win gives up a handful of e-mini day trading tips in a webinar presentation recorded last week.

He covers topics ranging from the following:

• Why day traders shouldn’t use indicators
• How to day trade the news
• Avoiding common mistakes and misconceptions when trading
• The importance of having a plan, or blueprint when trading
• What is price action trading and how do we trade it?
• How do the pros trade?
• What are the best ways to enter the market?
• What causes volatility and slowness in the markets?
• And he shows a few price action setups all Emini traders can take advantage of

You can find out more about Power Price Action trading at the official site.

In the video above, John Paul, founder and E-Mini personal trainer, took one of the Day Trade to Win proprietary trades called the ATO. This At the Open trade works exclusively for the E-Mini S&P, as it’s one of the most consistently performing markets. The ATO was being taught to those enrolled the the Private Mentorship Program. With a perfect setup occurring during class, you can see John profit target and entry position. The day trading course is available independently for traders who want a consistent way to make E-Mini profits. Trading the E-Mini should not be based on subjectivity or multiple ways to interpret price action. The ATO teaches a specific way to read price, allowing for consistent profits.

Almost as watching magic in front of your eyes, amaze yourelf by watching the following video of John Paul demonstrating the Atlas Line software perform in two unbelievable trades.

Atlas Line indicates to go short right after three consecutive large green candles and John Paul does so with little hesitation. Why? Becayse the Atlas Line is constantly effective in making the decisions for us. Price was headed toward the Atlas Line, indicating an Atlas Line pull back trade (at least two bars pulling back followed by one candle closing in the red). ORDER FILLED. Using only price action and the Atlas Line,this resulted in a nice 1 point winner.

Plenty of opportunities for profit today with the Atlas Line:

Trade 1 – Short – win for 5-6 ticks
Trade 2 – Short – win for 6-7 ticks
Trade 3 – Long – loss for 6-7 ticks
Trade 4 – Short – win for 6-7 ticks
Trade 5 – Long – win for 6-7 ticks
Trade 6 – Long – win for 4-5 ticks

This gives us a daily potential of 32 ticks if you traded using the Atlas Line.

The difference in doing well or not in day trading is usually a result of lack of experience, knowledge or effective tools.

The ATR gives us a clear volatility indication for us to know when to get out. All in all, the combination of the Atlas Line and ATR leave little doubt for a day trader, allowing him to get in and out with profits and ease. Is your trading strategy simple or are you fighting just to keep consistent?

We’ve been receiving a few questions from day trader Mike Anderson, not affiliated with the Arkansas coach basketball ball coach, who wanted to know some basic facts about the E-Mini S&P.

Mike asked us the following questions:

1. What time does the CME open for trading E-Mini futures?
A: 9:30 a.m. U.S. Eastern Time. We always give this figure as Eastern Time because of New York’s / the East Coast’s large pull on the markets.

2. When does the CME market close for E-Mini futures trading?
A: 4:15 p.m. U.S. Eastern Time. The market then opens at 4:30 p.m. The E-Mini can be traded nearly 24/7 on Globex for those who like to take chances!

3. How many contracts do most traders start out with?
A: Most traders start off with less than five contracts. It is in the best interest of beginner traders to trade with a single contract and work their way up as money is made.

4. What is the E-Mini’s minimum tick amount?
A: Each tick is equivalent to 0.25 or $5.00.

5. What are the E-Mini contract’s trading months?
A: The E-Mini trades all year round. Be sure to roll over your contracts every March, June, September and December.

This sums up Mike’s questions for this round. Stay tuned for the next round where we’ll be discussing the E-Mini S&P; not college basketball, or the other Mike Anderson’s decision on whether or not to take the coaching job.

Since this is E-Mini Videos, we couldn’t leave you high and dry. Check out this recent blog post from Day Trade to Win showing you some great trading tips for the E-Mini S&P.

This past week has been very slow for E-Mini S&P traders. The only way to make a buck was to scalp the market. There’s no better time to learn how to scalp trade – luckily, the Trade Scalper Course is available once again.

The Trade Scalper’s scalping method is demonstrated here where the instructor enters the market for three ticks. This video is recent, showing three trades on November 3, 2010.

Trade Scalper students operate like this:
Trading without slippage, not moving stops or profit targets – keep them in place
They use a one-minute chart, get in and out of the trade quickly
They do not use market orders. Instead, they use limit orders to prevent slippage.

How much did you make trading the E-Mini S&P on November 3? Even after the elections, the E-Mini S&P is significantly less volatile as compared to even the summer months.

There’s a free Trade Scalper webinar scheduled for Thursday, November 11 from 7:00 pm EST to 8:00 pm EST.
