Using the Atlas Line software from Day Trade to Win, John Paul trade with a ive account and goes for 6.25 points on the E-Mini. Trading five contracts (order quantity in Ninjatrader) for 6.25 points is equivalent to $1562.50, providing the trade works out in his favor. Using the ATR, he notices that the target may be a bit extreme so he reduces it to 4.25 (a safer target based on what the ATR can allow). In case you’re not familiar with NinjaTrader, the green line indicates the profit target. The orange line indicates what the current profit would be (current price position). After the successful 4.25 points, he realizes that the original setting of 6.25 would have worked in his favor. Remember, Day Trade to Win focuses on price action and limits the risk of trades through strategic stop and profit placement. 4.25 points is still more than most traders can hope for on days with such volatility.
