The Four Steps Trading Course is a software package complete with a printed manual and instructional video. It consists of 25 self-adaptive indicators that are used visually to create a trading strategy. Also provided are separately programmed trading signals that correspond to these indicators. The purpose of his course is to provide to the trader a specific, scientific method to create an individual automated trading system that reflects as much as possible the trading style, risk tolerance and profit objective of the individual creating the strategy. Traders implement this software package by first applying each indicator in the package to a price chart of their favorite market(s) that they wish to trade. By observing interaction of the trading signals generated by these indicators with their own trading strategies, users quickly determine which indicator combinations can be most effectively used to enhance their present trading style. When a combination of indicators has been appropriately chosen, the trader then selects the trading signal(s) that corresponds to these indicators. When these programs are applied to the chart, the resulting system will automatically issue buy and sell orders in conjunction with the designated indicator combination. The program then generates actual trades on the charts, giving the trader an instant, accurate picture of how his / her system would have worked had it been traded using these rules in the past. A system report is also created which analyzes, both numerically and graphically, the hypothetical trading results from historical data. Using this software package, traders are able to determine if their strategy would have been profitable before actually committing real money to the market. This unique package allows the trader to incorporate self-adaptive technical analysis with his / her own proven trading strategy. The trader can first visually and subjectively create a complete strategy and then objectively test the system mathematically. In this fashion, most traders using the package have been able to gain that extra edge that is necessary to be a successful trader. Much of the advantage to using this package is the confidence that the trader gains from the ability to objectively assess the validity of their trading theories. The technical, self-adaptive theories used to program these indicators and trading signals are the same as those used to develop the Cyclone System, which has been proven over time to be a dependable system. Now these tools can be used by any trader to enhance his / her trading theories or systems. Working with many traders over the last 20 years it has become apparent that the most successful traders are those who are have developed their own system using their own theories and preferences. This package gives traders the additional advantage of adding a proven, self-adaptive technical package to their own strategy. An additional advantage to using this package is that each indicator and strategy is provided with multiple user definable inputs by which the users are able to adjust many parameters of the resulting system, including frequency and time frame of trading. These features offer additional methods by which a system can be customized by the end user to best fit his / her current strategy. http://www.clayburg.com
