Strategic Futures Trading

Book excerpt: Futures traders know that the key to success in speculation consists of three elements: discipline, risk management, and timing. Of the three, timing offers the most strategic possibilities. Strategic Futures Trading examines eight powerful new approaches that apply basic timing indicators to improve futures trading profitability. These indicators have been ignored in recent years in favor of "high-tech" systems and methods, but they still have much to offer the alert investor who knows how to apply them. These highly effective trading signals are fully and understandably described, complete with historical perspectives of their performance and concise risk management tools. Real-world examples of each strategy are illustrated with clear and revealing graphics.
