    The Ultimate Futures Trading Camp...???

    I talked to Tom Chlada at length about the seminar yesterday. Tom has some good things to say about Jason and his group. The methodology seemed to be geared towards short term plays (scalping) using news and stepping ahead (or along with) the program traders playing the futues side of the...

    What are the differences between an investor and a trader?

    An investor has a vested interest in the company she puts money into. A trader utilizes capital to buy something at which she can sell at a higher price (order independent) while having no vested interest in the item bought/sold.

Since I was using hour bars, I added a moving average trend filter that said only trade in the direction of the trend. I used a length...
