Creating Winning Trading Strategies with OmniTrader
In each volume, we disclose a powerful method in three ways, (1) the theory or background of the method, (2) the precise definition of the method, and (3) how to use the examples. The goal of each Trading Secrets volume is to provide specific information that OmniTrader users can use to identify profitable setups and convert them into Strategies.
In this seminar, we discuss the history of Floor Pivots and the various interpretations, including the use of Major and Minor lines. All the formulas used to calculate the Pivots are also disclosed. The Floor Pivots used on the exchanges are always based on the prior session to create levels for the current session, in Real Time. But we have discovered that, by using weekly or monthly bar values, we can create outstanding pivot levels for trading End-of-Day as well. Both approaches are covered in the seminar.
Our goal in the volume is to illuminate the art of Floor Pivot trading, so you can plot the levels in OmniTrader and be ready to take action as a key level is reached.

Opening Gaps are formed when a market opens and is trading a significant distance from where it closed the prior session. This forms a “gap” in the Real Time chart. Under certain circumstances, the opening gap will be filled, meaning price will press back into the gap and go lower (or higher, on an opening down gap). In this seminar, we will tell you precisely how we identify the most profitable opening gaps – the size of the gap that has the greatest promise, and the other market factors that lead to the best moves. You will be able to take the information from this seminar and directly apply it in the market.

All traders know that to be successful they have to minimize their losses and maximize their gains. Most traders focus on stop placement to achieve this goal. But just as important is the decision on how much to risk on each trade.

This new seminar covers the importance of Trade Management, the basic concepts used by successful traders, and how the process can be automated in OmniTrader.
The best way to manage risk while trading is to take a systematic approach. By looking at the three primary aspects of Trade Management, Protecting Equity, Protecting Profits and Staying in the Market, we can formulate a set of rules that will be used on each and every trade. Applying these rules puts the odds in our favor, enabling us to win consistently and unlock the profit potential of any market.
After thoroughly covering the kinds of stops one should consider using, Jeff reveals the trade plan process and provides guidance on how to set up the best possible trade plan, given the conditions of a specific trade. Now OmniTrader users can establish trade plans and follow them in their trading with the help of the program. This seminar will give you a head start down the right path.

This seminar covers:
Have you ever wondered what you should be trading? The answer comes from these three factors: risk tolerance, experience and trading frequency. By deciding what your trading objective is, how much risk is acceptable to you and a few other factors, you can calculate a "score" that represents your risk factors. With that score, the Matrix can suggest a trading vehicle that will work for you.
The Matrix is a methodical way of combining risk frequency and experience into a simple view. The seminar will give you a good overview of vehicles that are available, and what their risk profiles look like.
The Matrix helps clarify your trading options and will make you a more confident trader.
In the seminar, we score several "typical" investors according to their risk profiles, as in this example.
We then use this score to look up the appropriate trading vehicle in the Matrix (not shown), according to the investor's objectives and risk factor score.
