Intelligent Trading Decisions

Within the dynamic landscape of financial markets, pursuing profitable trading strategies is an ongoing commitment for investors endeavoring to navigate the intricacies of asset management. The maxim “Intelligent Traders Trade Intelligently” encapsulates the core principle of strategic trading, highlighting the criticality of employing sophisticated methodologies and resources to attain enduring success in the market. However, if the intelligence quotient alone guaranteed wealth within the market, a significantly more significant number of traders would find success. Therefore, our focus remains steadfast on adopting a learnable systematic approach centered on replicable price setups and investment strategies.

NeverLossTrading is not a vow of infallibility in trading; instead, it embodies the art of seizing high-probability price turning points, aiming for consistent income by skillfully averting drawdowns. At the forefront of this ethos is NeverLossTrading, a pioneering platform that empowers traders with cutting-edge technology and comprehensive resources to optimize their trading endeavors. By blending the art of intelligent trading with the innovative solutions offered by NeverLossTrading, investors can unlock a wealth of advantages and propel their financial aspirations to new heights, where we focus on specific actions and strategies for:

  • Day Trading (open and closing positions the same day)
  • Swing Trading (holding open positions for multiple days)
  • Longer-Term Trading (holding positions for multiple weeks)

In the realm of swing trading and longer-term investing, the NLT trade repair method introduces a strategic dimension to high-probability trade setups, yielding a significant impact.

One of the key advantages of adopting NLT methodology is the emphasis on data-driven decision-making. In today’s fast-paced markets, where volatility and uncertainty abound, having access to real-time market analysis and actionable insights is paramount. Through sophisticated algorithms and advanced analytical tools, NeverLossTrading equips traders with the ability to identify lucrative trading opportunities with precision and confidence.

How to let the chart tell when to buy or sell:

  • System-defined price thresholds for entry: Buy > or Sell below a certain point when the system assumes that other market participants think and act the same.
  • The target price is defined at entry before a potential for an opposite price move is expected.
  • Stop or price adjustment level that considers a system adequate risk/reward ratio to trade with the odds in your favor. NeverLossTrading’s approach is rooted in risk management principles, mitigating the inherent uncertainties associated with trading. By employing proprietary risk assessment techniques and implementing robust stop-loss or trade adjustment mechanisms, traders can safeguard their capital and minimize potential losses, thereby fostering a more sustainable and resilient trading portfolio.

We best share some examples of how this works in different trade environments:

Day Trading

People prefer day trading for its potential quick profits from short-term market fluctuations – avoiding overnight risks, all positions will be closed at the end of the trading day.

One of our day trading concepts is to aim for a consecutive weekly income goal and stop trading when attained – participating in one or two trades per day.

You will learn high-probability chart setups by combining time-based happenings with NLT Timeless charts and act less frequently for higher average income. The concept works for all asset classes, and we choose futures trading to share the principle.

At 14:21 ET on February 14, we initiated a long trading position with the /ES (E-Mini S&P 500 futures contract). This decision was prompted by a buy signal indicating that the price had surpassed the Buy > $4,999.50 threshold, supported by floating indicating a breakout from a containment area with upward pressure. The trade reached its target at 14:21, as indicated by the dot on the chart, while the red crossbar denotes the system’s predetermined stop level. With one futures contract traded, we realized a profit of $250. While there were previous signals leading to targets, we focus on this specific instance for discussion purposes.

Operating our systems and interpreting charts effectively requires adhering to specific rules that are comprehensible through learning and practice.

Swing Trading

Swing trading appeals to those seeking to capitalize on intermediate-term price movements, often holding a position for a few days rather than weeks.

Intel (INTC) is a very recent example. For February 12, our NLT Alerts indicated for intel a buy signal (orange signal on the chart from February 9, 2024). The threshold to enter the trade was $43.55, with a target of $49.99, trading for a 3.3% return on cash.

Hence, a buy-stop order with a bracket was set pre-market, filled and reached its target. In this case, all in one day. When looking to the left, on January 29, a short trading opportunity was confirmed and came to target on February 2, 2029.

We could undoubtedly add trade over trade, but I wanted to pick some recent examples to demonstrate how our system paints trading opportunities on the chart and how to implement them.

Longer-term investing is favored for its potential for sustained growth and the ability to ride out market volatility, aiming for wealth accumulation over time.

Long-Term Investing

We take longer-term trading decisions from weekly charts and pick Microsoft (MSFT) to demonstrate how to put signals in action.

From left to right:

After an NLT purple zone occurs, we do not open trades as long as such a zone is present. NLT Top-Line Charts paint upward momentum in blue and downward momentum in red; when red and blue mix, purple indicates no directional price pressure.

Then you see multiple buy signals along the blue upward framed price move that all came to target (dot on the chart). The actual candle does not possess a signal. With the help of this chart, you decide once a week what you do, and you pre-program entries, exits, and stops.

The Art of Trading: A Pillar of a Fulfilling Life

 In pursuing a fulfilling life, one must prioritize three fundamental aspects: relationships, health, and financial stability:

  • Nurturing positive relationships while steering clear of toxic ones
  • Prioritizing physical and mental well-being
  • Strategically managing finances

Those are vital components to achieving overall happiness and contentment. While each dimension is crucial, in this discourse, we shift our focus to financials, recognizing its significance alongside the other pillars of a satisfying existence.

At the core of financial stability lies the imperative of generating income and investing wisely to produce sustainable returns. Regardless of one’s income level, a prudent strategy is to set aside a portion—ideally 20%—and channel it into the market for investment. This practice’s essence lies in securing one’s financial future and harnessing the power of compounding interest, arguably one of the most ingenious inventions in human history.

If you have investments in the market through any form of account, we are committed to providing you with essential knowledge pillars to fortify your financial future.

NeverLossTrading is not a vow of infallibility in trading; instead, it embodies the art of seizing high-probability price turning points, aiming for consistent income by skillfully averting drawdowns.

Knowledge is Power

At NeverLossTrading, we recognize the importance of empowering private investors with the knowledge and skills needed to thrive in today’s markets. We offer tailor-made systems and education programs to equip you with the tools to make informed trading decisions as:

  • A Day Trader (opening and closing positions the same day)
  • Swing Traders (holding positions for up to a couple of days)
  • Longer-term Investors (holding positions for weeks or months)

Institutional investments dominate the landscape, and we developed systems that help you spot, track and act with the big money instead of against it.

Trade what you see: let the chart tell when to buy or sell!

Our key offerings Include:

  • Personalized Coaching: Our seasoned mentors provide one-on-one coaching sessions tailored to your unique trading goals and skill level.
  • Proprietary Trading Systems: Gain access to proprietary trading systems and indicators designed to identify high-probability trading opportunities across various market conditions.
  • Ongoing Support: Beyond education, we offer ongoing support and guidance to help you navigate changing market conditions effectively.

Trading and investing are not mere hobbies but valuable skills that, when mastered, can yield significant returns. By adopting a systematic approach to trading and investing, you can quickly mitigate risk, leverage returns, and outperform professional fund managers.

Let us share examples for day trading, swing trading and longer-term investing, where you decide when to enter and exit positions with the help of a NeverLossTrading chart.

E-Mini S&P 500 Futures Trade February 14, 2024

This trade reached the weekly budget of producing $1,000 of day trading income, and it was time to fold trading. We will teach you how we strive for constant income through our concept of less trading is more income: – = +, a different approach for successful day trading.

Swing Trading

Swing trading appeals to those seeking to capitalize on intermediate-term price movements, often holding a position for a few days rather than weeks.

Unraveling the Probability Mindset for Day Trading

Unlocking the secrets to day trading success goes beyond a relentless work ethic – it thrives on the foundation of a sharp and discerning probability mindset. This article delves into what it truly takes to thrive in day trading, shattering the notion that success merely stems from hard work. Join us on a journey to unveil the key elements that set apart the triumphs in day trading, revealing the power of embracing a probability mindset for a flourishing income.

NeverLossTrading is not a vow of infallibility in trading; instead, it embodies the art of seizing high-probability price turning points, aiming for consistent income by skillfully averting drawdowns.

The 70% Dilemma

Consider a scenario where a specific setup or situation repeats itself with a 70% chance of winning. Now, how many consecutive wins would prompt you to fold? While some traders may be tempted to accept as many transactions as possible for this promising setup, embracing a probability mindset reveals the flaws in this approach.

Two Critical Reasons to Refrain

  1. Commission Costs: Each transaction comes with a commission paid to participate in the trade. Embracing every potential setup without discrimination can quickly erode profits.
  2. Wiggle Room Necessity: Realizing a 70% chance of winning requires flexibility to bring the transaction to the target. Unforeseen market fluctuations may necessitate a margin of safety for optimal outcomes.

Crunching the Numbers

Let’s delve into the numerical aspects of this probability dilemma. Assume a return of $250 per transaction, a $5 commission, and a wiggle room extending the target to 1.2 times the potential gain, i.e., $300. The probability table is then crafted, accounting for the likelihood of a series of wins.

For instance, with a 70% probability of achieving two consecutive wins, the long-run chance diminishes to 49%. Aiming for three consecutive wins further reduces the odds to 34%, leaving a 66% chance of encountering a losing streak.

Table of Expectation Values

A table calculates the expectation value of one, two, or three consecutive trades, multiplying the potential net income by the probability of a series and accounting for potential losses. The outcomes clearly show the risks and rewards associated with each scenario.

Winning Probability | Expectation Value

Conclusion: The Art of Knowing When to Fold

In day trading, wisdom is celebrating victories and knowing when to fold. Consider folding and basking in the glory of your first-day trade emerges victorious. If it incurs a loss, take another chance and resist the urge to overtrade in pursuit of redemption. This way, a probability mindset becomes your guiding light in navigating the intricate landscape of financial markets.

As we venture into the next phase, a pivotal question surfaces: How lucrative can this approach be? Picture this scenario: navigating the world of futures contracts, carefully selecting two highly tradable contracts to pursue those elusive high-probability setups. A return of approximately $250 per contract and trade beckons, with an encouraging caveat – when you hit the $1,000 mark per week trading a single contract, it’s time to fold gracefully.

The same principle applies to the avid day trader in stocks, albeit with a nuanced touch. Here, the quest involves employing a price pressure finder, a tool indispensable for cherry-picking stocks where prices dance to the rhythm of potential gains: Day trading stocks without price moves is dangerous.

Now, the lingering question echoes: how much capital must be summoned to orchestrate a weekly performance of $1,000?

Capital Requirement for Day Trading

Yet, if this sum appears formidable, fear not – for restraint is a virtue in trading. If the required capital seems beyond your current reach, the resounding advice is clear: do not trade! A shortage of adequate capital erects formidable barriers that can sabotage your journey to success.

Crunching the numbers, let’s establish a fundamental rule: each trade should pose a risk equivalent to a maximum of 5% of your holdings. Taking a hypothetical trading risk of $300 from our earlier example, the minimum capital to engage in this venture should be $6,000.

However, the grandeur of a $5,000 weekly income unfurls through a strategic dance of multiples. To earn this formidable sum, one must trade a multiple of the base unit and meticulously hold a corresponding multiple in cash. This financial ballet demands a stage adorned with $30,000 in this case.

As we navigate the intricate trading landscape, it becomes evident that success is not merely about seizing opportunities but strategically managing resources. The aspiring trader can unlock the gateway to a lucrative income through a blend of calculation and prudent decision-making. So, in the realm of trading, the mantra echoes loud and clear: balance, precision, and a calculated dance with risk are the keys to orchestrating a flourishing financial performance, and it all comes out to work with a system that helps you to specify high probability setups and not to overtrade on them.

Day Trading with NLT Decisions

After we explained how trading less and striving for a budget increases the likelihood of producing income, we now share ways of finding high-probability price turning points to act upon.

“Timeless trading” refers to a strategy that considers consistent price increments as the decision-making basis instead of price movement over time. This way, time is no longer a critical variable for forming trading or investing decisions. Our systems define which assets provide a solid basis for price moves, and we follow them with the NLT Timeless Concept.

NLT Timeless charts use system-defined price increments to determine crucial price turning points to act upon. For example, on the chart, candles are drawn purely price-based: when the price movement exceeds the specified increment, a new candle is added. With the help of indicators, traders can make high-probability decisions, where the system spells out the price threshold for entering, exiting, and stopping a trade, always keeping risk and reward in a meaningful balance.

A prerequisite for day traders: you must withstand the temptation to trade frequently instead of more accurately. You can increase your trading accuracy using dynamic, less predictable entries, exits, and stops. As a trader, you are a probability thinker, which means there is no 100% certainty that your decision will lead to a positive outcome. More frighteningly, 76% of day traders are losing money. Trading is not a game where the smartest are necessarily the best. If IQ were a ticket to riches in the market, many more successful traders would be there. From our experience, you need to put the odds in your favor by operating with a system and rules of 65% or higher predictability; otherwise, the chance for success will be random.

The worst trader has positive trades, but it is not about those but your average winning balance. Only when this is positive are you trading with an expectation of producing a return from your financial market investments.

What is the basis of your decision-making, and do you want to better your trading or justify that you were right because you had random wins?

Make a change to your trading:

  • Decide on high-probability price turning points
  • Be less predictable in your actions
  • Follow a plan for trading success and strive for a budget

Read on to see how our charts tell when to buy or sell!

Trading is not an easy career: when you add up what it costs to not act at high probability price-turning points, you might be open to investing in a high-probability system and appropriate education.

We highly propose following a business plan for trading success that shall entail:

  • Acting with a system probability > 65%
  • Mechanical rules for entry, exit, and stop
  • Trade at perfect moments only
  • Consider overall factors, patterns
  • Risk and reward in an acceptable balance
  • Risk-averse trading
  • Holding positions to target
  • Do not add to losers
  • Stick with a trading strategy. Follow a business plan – action plan and financial plan
  • Trade for meaningful price moves
  • Systematic trading
  • Having a mentor to learn from

The typical problem for a trader: In hindsight, you know what happened, and we want to help you forecast future price development with high predictability.

With our systems and strategies, we want to help you to higher accuracy:

  • Only accepting a trade when the direction is confirmed
  • Exiting at a pre-defined target, preventing the price from pulling back, and taking your profits away before you realize them
  • Choose an adequate stop so you are not taken out of a trade by a too-tight stop and keep reward and risk in a meaningful balance.

When day trading for pre-defined price moves, positions are kept open for a couple of bars/candles but permanently close the same day.

Our systems define the price increment to choose for setting up the charts, specifying two ranges:

  • Shorter-term: holding open positions between two and 20 minutes
  • Longer-term: holding open positions for 20 minutes to hours

We share examples for the E-Mini S&P 500 futures contract and Crude Oil futures, our most favored assets for day trade.

NLT Timeless Day Trading Chart

In the above chart, we highlighted four potential trade situations:

  • The first two trade indications occurred in what we call an NLT Purple Zone (indication of directional price ambiguity), and we do not trade as long as zones of price ambiguity hold.
  • In Situation-3, the NLT Purple Zone ended in a long signal: Buy > $4,789. The target for the trade was at the dot of the chart and the stop at the bottom of the indication candle.
  • Situation-4 offered a short opportunity at a strong signal, NLT PowerTower Down, Sell < $4787.50, combined with an NLT Breakout signal. Knowing from the NLT Dashboard where to enter, we placed a sell-stop order, which did not immediately fill but continued the price move and came to target (dot on the chart).

Our trading decisions come from system-defined situations that repetitively happen multiple times in a trading day, offering you the chance to participate in directional price moves.

NLT Day Trading Chart Example

From the left to the right, we highlighted three trade potentials:

  • Situation-1: Long opportunity, expressed by two buy signals. The upward price move is trailable by the red line of the blue frame that follows the price momentum.
  • Situation-2 did not lead to a trade because a black dashed line cut the potential price movement to target short, and we spared the trade.
  • Situation-3: A short trade with a bracket order developed, came to target, and produced $337.50 per contract.

With the help of our systems, traders act at crucial price-turning points, so you do not need to qualify if you trade the momentum, trend, or scalp, making informed decisions in the dynamic world of day trading.

What sets NeverLossTrading apart is its commitment to hands-on learning. Practical examples and case studies walk students through real-life day trading scenarios, ensuring that theoretical knowledge is translated into actionable strategies.

Making Institutional Investment Strategies Visible

Institutional investment firms are pivotal in shaping trends and influencing market movements. Armed with vast resources and sophisticated strategies, these behemoths meticulously analyze financial market happenings to make informed investment decisions. This essay explores the methods employed by big institutional investment firms in deciphering weekly events and how NeverLossTrading (NLT) indicators help traders and investors follow their actions.

NeverLossTrading is not a vow of infallibility in trading; instead, it embodies the art of seizing high-probability price turning points, aiming for consistent income by skillfully averting drawdowns.

Decoding the Happening

Institutional investment firms, often managing massive portfolios for clients and stakeholders, navigate a complex web of information to discern trends and opportunities. One crucial aspect of their decision-making process involves staying attuned to daily and weekly happenings that can impact financial markets. This includes monitoring economic indicators, geopolitical developments, corporate earnings reports, and other relevant asset value news.

These institutions leverage quantitative analysis, fundamental research, and proprietary algorithms to process vast data. Fundamental analysis involves scrutinizing the financial health of companies and assessing macroeconomic factors, while quantitative models use mathematical algorithms to identify patterns and correlations in market data. Institutional investors aim to gain a competitive edge by carefully dissecting weekly events through these lenses.

The Role of NLT Indicators

NeverLossTrading indicators have become invaluable tools for traders and investors seeking to understand and follow the actions of institutional investment firms. The name NeverLossTrading derives from the concept of repairing trades instead of accepting the stop loss. NLT focuses on identifying shifts in market leadership, emphasizing the importance of recognizing emerging trends and adapting investment strategies accordingly. The theory posits that new market leaders, whether sectors, industries, or individual stocks, can provide valuable signals for investors.

Institutional investment firms often leave discernible footprints in the market, influencing the trajectory of specific assets or sectors. NLT indicators help investors track these shifts in leadership. For instance, institutional accumulation or distribution of particular stocks can be identified through volume analysis, aiding traders in making timely and informed decisions.

NLT Swing Power SignalYellowWhen a new direction is found after increased exchange activity without a directional move68%
NLT Reversal IndicatorGreen_R, Green_XAt the end of a trend.65%

By integrating NLT indicators into their analysis, investors can gauge the strength of prevailing trends and identify potential reversals. Recognizing when institutional players are actively entering or exiting positions allows for a more strategic approach to portfolio management.

Always consider: Investing in your knowledge and skills yields the highest long-term return, and we are here to share ways of acting when it matters and always keeping capital preservation as your core goal, aside from producing a return on investment.

Conclusion

In conclusion, big institutional investment firms employ sophisticated strategies to decode weekly happenings and make well-informed investment decisions. The integration of NLT indicators into the analysis process enhances the ability of traders and investors to follow the actions of these institutional giants. By understanding the methodologies used by these firms and leveraging NLT insights, market participants can navigate the complexities of financial markets and position themselves for success in an ever-evolving landscape.

Examples

Our first example analyzes the stock market based on the E-Mini S&P 500 Futures contract development between March 2023 and January 2024.

E-Mini S&P 500 Futures with NLT Top-Line and SwingPower

On the chart, we highlighted seven situations and will explain how to read and act on them:

  • Situation-1, highlights an NLT Purple Zone, reflecting ambiguity in the price direction, and as such, we do not accept signals in this zone. At the end of the zone, we take a directional trade if a signal occurs.
  • Buying> $4227.25 indicated a potential for going long in the underlying contract when the price move of the next candle surpasses this price threshold. This fact led to a trade to the upside with an exit at the purple dot on the chart.
  • The following two buy signals were unconfirmed, and no trade was conducted.
  • Signal-5 came in an NLT Purple Zone, and we did not trade it.
  • Signal-6, Buy > $4319.80, was confirmed and led to an upside trade to the second blue dot on the chart, where we took the exit, assuming a pullback.
  • Signal-7 confirmed the upside price move to the second blue dot on the chart.

As you can see, we trade by clearly defined rules, letting the chart tell us when to buy or sell.

Let us pick a widely liked stock and do the same type of analysis to find crucial price turning points:

AAPL, Weekly NLT Top-Line and SwingPower Chart

The chart shows the period from March 2023 to January 2024, with multiple trade indications.

Signal-1: Buy > $187.56, confirmed in the next candle and lead to a price move to target. The following blue buy signal did not confirm at first, but secondly, we will never enter at the exit candle (one of our rules).

Signal-3: Buy > $191.70 confirmed and came to target (dot on the chart).

Signal-4: Sell < $181.92 confirmed, with a short cover at target (red dot). The following signals, 5 and 6, were not confirmed, and no trade was conducted.

Signal-7: Sell < $173.86 confirmed, and even so, it was challenged after three candles in the price move never came to the stop-level (red crossbar of the trade initiation candle) and then came to target.

The signals 8, 9,10, and 11 lead to a trade that came to the system-defined target.

We picked another popular stock and highlighted trade situations and conclusions for TSLA. The chart shows eight trade potentials we will discuss.

Chart Analysis

Signal-1 led to an upside trade to target (dot on the chart). Two independent indicators announced the long trading opportunity, and the next candle’s price move confirmed the trade.

Signal-2 did not lead to a trade because we did not enter at the exit candle (same rule as explained in the AAPL example).

Signal-3: Sell < $255.80 initiated a short trade to target.

Signal-4: The red sell signal was not confirmed, and we will only trade this signal on candle number one or two of an NLT series.

Signal-5: Buy > $240.82 confirmed and came to target.

Signal-6: Sell < $263.60 got stopped, and we did not enter the signals on the level of the exit candle of this trade.

Signal-7 worked, and the trade came to the system-set target.

Signal-8, did not lead to a trade because the NLT Box Line cut the price move to target short.

There are rules to learn, and we work individually with our students on their best available days and times to teach them how to read and follow NLT Signals by letting the chart tell them when to buy or sell: Trade what you see!

Let us add another weekly analysis showcasing the bond market by the 30-year Bond Futures, which have been in a consistent uptrend since October 2023.

NLT charts serve as a sophisticated tapestry woven from multiple NLT Systems, offering a mosaic of buy and sell indications. The star of this final visual symphony is the underlying 30-year Bond Futures contract, a realm where precision and insight reign supreme.

In 30-year Bond Futures, every move is a dance of seconds, where price changes are measured in increments known as ‘seconds,’ each tick reflecting a shift of $31.25 in the underlying contract price. Our charts transform this granularity into a metric scale, prorating incremental changes for clarity.

30-Year Bond Futures on a Multisystem NLT Chart

Check if you feel confident following what you see on the chart. Take, for example, the Sell_S signal at <$118.44, denoted by the second yellow signal from the left. This indicator serves as a gateway to potential trades, suggesting an opportunity if the price in the upcoming week descends below 118’14. The intricacies don’t stop there; the trade’s destination is marked by the yellow chart dot at 115’29, guarded by a stop at the red crossbar at 122’11. Again, trade what you see and follow high-probability system setups with clearly defined rules.

We could continue adding chart examples but offer you the opportunity to see how our indicators perform live in an online session, where we jointly find out which of our systems or system combinations suit you best.
