Trade Coaching Boot Camp: Day 1 Review, Day 2 and 3 Schedule Updates, Post Boot Camp Plans.

Day One Review:

  • Live Trading
    • Crude Oil Trading – We got some excellent live trading in with EPIC Oil Algorithm, use of algorithm charting, full quad moves in the oil markets for a Friday and some excellent live trading examples of best use of the crude oil algorithm itself.
    • Swing Trading – We didn’t get much swing trading in other than review of my recent swing trades, some review of adds to trades and trimming out of recent swing trade positions. We also reviewed my trading plans for swing trades, swing trading through the structure of the charting in our swing trading reports and alerts, my risk reward management of trades (and even one that was under water and how I sized trades at specific areas of the model to ensure a win) and more.
    • Day Trading – If I remember right we didn’t get any day trades in (after all it was a Friday session which makes sense), but we did do a quick review of how the swing trading chart set-ups can also be used for day trading.
  • Charting
    • We did get an over view of the EPIC Crude Oil Trading Algorithm done.
    • We accomplished a general review of algorithm charting models, the general idea of charting structure, the anomalies in the charting structures and how those are the best trading probability zones, price targets in charting structures, waves of moves in the charting, timing cycles and more. We reviewed in general the oil charting, Gold miner’s GDX, Volatility VIX and a number of swing trading charting structures from recent reporting and more (such as $BOX, $EDIT and others).
    • We also got a quick look at how I scan the leader board and losers and the initial look at how I scan for equities that may or may not qualify for our platform so that I can possibly use those equities for my own trading plan and possibly share with our Swing Trading or Day trading Room members the trade set-ups (this is where it also becomes important for coaching students and members to review the premarket reports).
  • Other
    • There were other topics discussed in general and study review of video set post boot camp will include details.

Day Two Of Trade Coaching Boot-Camp Is Complete, A Review:

Day two is in the record books, we focused on the oil trading platform / charting and did some preliminary algorithmic chart modeling. Assigned some optional charting home-work to build out the charting we started and for the most part jumped over the Swing Trading / Day Trading part of the schedule that will be covered on Day 3 now (per day 3 notes below).

The summary list of what we covered is below;

  • Algorithmic Chart Modeling
    • How to Chart the Structure of a Financial Instrument
      • On the fly chart models while in a trade. How to chart structure on the fly.
      • Generation 1 – 5 charting models and how to start with generation 1 charting.
      • Black box model addition (example EPIC and DXY)
      • Machine Trading Model Basics
    • Access to Master Class Training Videos in our private library for trade coaching students (20 + hours of in-depth training).

Day Three Of Trade Coaching Boot-Camp is Today! Sunday Sept 16 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM:

Last evening and early this Sunday morning I had opportunity to visit with (interview) on Skype and in person attendees to the trading boot-camp specifically toward the schedule itinerary planned for today.

Speaking to many of our traders in attendance for boot camp the theme surrounding responses was very consistent, here is what I found:

  • All the traders really enjoyed the opportunity to witness the live crude oil trading room, oil trade alerts in action (and how it related to the oil algorithm charting) on Friday very much (I will be doing much more live trading going forward) and they also expressed a keen interest in reviewing the video again at home after the boot camp to study the decisions made at each trade and technical analysis on the fly intra-day,
  • they all found the in depth EPIC Crude Oil Trading Algorithm Model explanation and chart driven oil trading set-ups (how to use and most probable trades) very helpful,
  • all the traders were hoping that Sunday could be primarily focused on the structure of financial instruments and actionable trading set-ups derived from the structure of charting from the Swing Trading Platform (and how those trade set-ups could be used in Day Trading and forming specific trading plans to the set-ups),
  • all the traders I spoke to felt the other Algorithm models (other than Oil) being SPY, VIX, DXY, GOLD, SILVER, BITCOIN were not the priority because, as we all know, if you know how to use EPIC the other algorithm models are self explanatory (with perhaps the report guidance in the weekly reports and the opportunity for future trade coaching).
  • everyone agreed that the algorithmic chart model “how to” was best done via the Master Class Series Videos (over 20 hours of charting how to previously recorded) studied in their own time at home,
  • and finally everyone agreed that the basics of trading (such as trading vocab and other entry level topics) explanation was not required because the class is made up of intermediate to advanced traders (for the most part) and it seems any early traders are (as we understand) mature high functioning individuals.

So I’ve arranged the Sunday schedule to focus on the trade set-ups and charting models for various equities that our traders can take in to the week as actionable trade set-ups.

I have a list of equity chart structures that we can review that will also provide opportunity for real-time class directed toward updating the charts, determining the best trading plan for each set-up and possibly break-out some opportune trade set-ups within each financial instrument based on anomalies and symmetries uncovered in the charts.

In short I agree that the final day schedule is better used for this purpose. It creates actionable trading set-ups for the coming week for our traders but also allows opportunity for our traders to see first hand (in real-time) how I develop my personal trading plan based on the charting and how I find particular set-ups within each chart (the structure of each financial instrument) using the discipline of algorithmic charting and more specifically uncovering anomalies / divergence and symmetry that can be executed for profit.

This will then conclude trading boot camp with a highly actionable content driven coaching day that our traders can use for strategy in their personal trading plans – immediately this week.

And finally I agree because yes, the other algorithm charting models can be reviewed at home (they will be released starting this evening to our membership), the Master Class Video series can be viewed at home and any trade coaching on a private level can be obtained by our traders on a one-to-one basis with me post boot camp.

  • Swing Trading (that can also be used for Day Trading)
    • Review recent swing trading reports, special reports, alert feeds, discord chat rooms, day trading room). Specific to recent swing reports this may be set-over to Sunday pending scheduling for the day.
      • Trade Set-Ups – Break down the swing trade set-ups on each chart (buy sell triggers, anomalies and associated probabilities, trade sizing, legging in and trimming and support and resistance on models, how to use the swing trading charting for day trading as well and more).
