They earned a REAL-MONEY PROFIT of $62.50 net of a $20 per contract transaction charge. “Mentor” Mike Bridges’ calls his system for day trading the S&P Emini futures, “POV” – standing for Price, Oscillator and Volume. The goal of POV 2.0 is to earn a daily average of $1,000+ trading 9 ES contracts. This requires a daily net profit per contract of $112.50. Today’s results = $2.50 per contract. Why boast about so small a gain? Because losses are inevitable. It is how you deal with them that counts. Many traders who suffer a losing trade fall into a depressed heap and lick their wounds. In POV 2.0, we keep a cool head, apply our proprietary CFB (come from behind) mode and get back in the money as we did today.

They earned a REAL-MONEY PROFIT of $210.00 net of a $20 per contract transaction charge. Mike sends his students a daily email describing the day’s trading. Here is what is message said today: “Shortly after the open, the all-session charts looked strongly bullish but the day session charts were mildly bearish. I made the rookie mistake of going with the all-session. The spike to the upside was a head-fake. After 2 ticks in my direction the market dropped like a stone and left us just shy of -$9K in the hole by the time I could exit. I switched into CFB Mode and applied our RUNNER strategy. It took 3 tries, but eventually the market sold off enough to fully recoup our loss and get us back in the money. After a stressful but redeeming morning like that, I thought it best not to tempt fate further and called it a day. See you all tomorrow.” Want to learn more about Mike and POV 2.0?

They earned a REAL-MONEY PROFIT of $3,507.50 net of a $20 per contract transaction charge. We took 3 shots on the short side with our GRAND-A-DAY ATM strategy. The first 2 fizzled out before reaching our target, but our 2-POINT SAFETY breakeven stop created a free trade and prevented a loss both times. The third time was the charm. “Mentor” Mike Bridges’ calls his system for day trading the S&P Emini futures, “POV” – standing for Price, Oscillator and Volume.

- [REAL-MONEY Trading Results for Mentor Mike’s POV 2.0 System for Wednesday, 3/18/15](https://ptausa.com/real-money-trading-results-for-mentor-mikes-pov-2-0-system-for-wednesday-31815/) - Today there were 23 contracts auto-traded in Pacific Trading Academy’s POV*account at Striker. They earned a REAL-MONEY PROFIT of $230.00 net of a $20 per contract transaction charge. There are not a lot of governmental reports or actions that can really “spook” the market. One that definitely can is any kind of announcement from the FOMC, the Federal Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve. Today, there was an FOMC policy statement at 11am PDT. You cannot rely on logic or common sense to predict the market’s reaction to whatever the Fed announces. So, you are wiser and safer to simply take the day off, or at least be sure you are flat the market at press conference time. To make matters worse, the market tends to be pretty soft in the early part of the day session on announcement days. So it was today. We took two shorts using our GRAND-A-DAY ATM strategy with the 2-POINT SAFETY auto-breakeven stop. We were stopped out with the bare minimum in both trades, but that beats a loss every time. Shortly after 11am, the market took off like a rocket and shot up about 20 points. After a move like that, our indicators are so skewed they are unreliable for the next several hours. So, we took our $230 and called it a day. I will probably take off all future FOMC announcement days. Hopefully, tomorrow will be back to “normal.” What to learn more about Mike and his POV 2.0 trading system?

They earned a REAL-MONEY PROFIT of $57.50 net of a $20 per contract transaction charge. We count today as very successful despite the tiny profit. Our first trade was a long taken on good signals but with no follow-through and a sudden drop. Upon exiting, we were down -$7,072.50. This gave us the opportunity to try out our new target-less ATM strategy, “RUNNER” with its Free Trade stop strategy, “2-POINT SAFETY.” We applied RUNNER to our second trade, a short, which went just far enough to cover costs and create the Free Trade but not much further. Then around 9:30 am PDT, the market revealed its clear intention to rally. We invoked the RUNNER on the long side. We were able to fully recoup our loss with $57.50 left over. Certainly, we all would have preferred a quick Grand-A-Day. But, getting to see how these new strategies work under real-money conditions was a valuable lesson that will allow us to use them more confidently in the future.

- [POV needs fewer targets that are further away](https://ptausa.com/pov-needs-fewer-targets-that-are-further-away/) - We have decided that the auto-trading version of POV needs fewer trades and longer trades. It also needs fewer targets that are further away.
- [POV needs fewer and longer trades](https://ptausa.com/pov-needs-fewer-and-longer-trades/) - When we began the POV auto trading program we started out very strong but have recently accumulated a string of losses. I make no excuses for my own emotional errors, but there is a more basic problem that must be addressed before we trade live again. POV was designed for a 1-minute time frame and a per-contract cost of $6 or less. 90% or more of the time, the 1-minute Average True Range dictates a 3-tick initial target, but because of the low cost, we have no trouble earning a free trade. And, there is no impediment on how many trades we make in a day. I still maintain that as a methodology for low-cost, self-directed traders, it is the best there is. But, POV, in its original form, is having trouble consistently overcoming the $20 per-contract cost in the auto trading program. The majority of trading systems offered by Striker appear to be position trading systems. The longer and further an individual trade goes, the less affected the outcome is by a higher transaction cost. I have also noted that POV appears to have far more trades than other day trading systems. I believe the bottom line is: if POV is going to survive and prosper in this environment, we need fewer and longer trades. Today we demo-traded on the 3-min/13-min chart to see if using that higher time frame would give us accurate signals for fewer and longer trades. So far, so good. We will continue our demo experiment tomorrow and Friday after which we will decide if we will apply the new arrangement to our live trading on Monday. Today we traded 24 contracts. Our preferred per-contract daily target is $162.50 for a total daily goal of $3,900. In the attached screen capture, there are two trades totaling a net profit of $5,640. I stopped trading at this point as I would do in real-money trading. I will meet all current students and monthly subscribers back in the ROOM tomorrow for another test of our higher time frame technique. Stand by for further updates.

The challenge is to identify these turning points and to recognize the entry signals that follow them for optimal entry timing. Every HI and LO is contained within a set of clearly recognizable indicators Mike calls, “Momentum Modules.” Join Mike next Tuesday, 2/24/15 @ 5:30 pm EST as he reveals the next chapter in his $1K-a-Day Market Blueprint – Managing Momentum Modules.

This requires a daily net profit per contract of $162.50 -- $112.50 for the basic “Grand-A-Day” goal and, an additional $50 to protect against the inevitable losing days, up to 3 per month. Today’s results = $167.92 per contract.

If you want to learn to be a self-sufficient trader, listen to the details of our tuition scholarship for Mike’s Mentoring Course and Trading Room package. And, see how current and former students can earn referral fees by sending PTA new enrollees for Mike to train. Last but not least, imagine joining the auto-trading program and earning enough profit to pay for Mike’s course. Then, if Mike retires someday, you will continue to profit as a thoroughly trained, self-directed trader. Perhaps you can even become Mike’s successor as Mentor and Auto-Trader.
- [Mentor Mike's POV Trading System earns another GRAND-A-DAY - Friday, 2/6/15](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mikes-pov-trading-system-earns-another-grand-a-day-friday-2615/) - Today, there were 21 contracts auto-traded in PTA’s POV*account at Striker. They earned a REAL-MONEY PROFIT of $2,992.50 net of a $20 per contract transaction charge. Later this weekend, Mike will be posting a “Market Movie” video giving a complete recap of this first full week of auto-trading. SPOILER ALERT: every day was profitable and Mike easily made his GRAND-A-DAY average in REAL-MONEY PROFIT. He will also describe the basic mechanics of the POV system and show you how to follow his progress on his blog page and at Striker Securities’ website as well. “Mentor” Mike Bridges’ calls his system for day trading the S&P Emini futures, “POV*” – standing for Price, Oscillator and Volume. The goal of POV is to earn $1,000+ per day trading 9 ES contracts. The system also works with smaller accounts -- 1, 2, 3 or 6 contracts – that can earn proportionately smaller profits. As a mentor at the Pacific Trading Academy, Mike teaches the POV system to students who want to become independent, self-directed traders. Interested?

- [Another profitable day in Mentor Mike's POV Auto-Trading and his live TRADING ROOM for Tuesday, 2/3/15](https://ptausa.com/another-profitable-day-in-mentor-mikes-pov-auto-trading-and-his-live-trading-room-for-tuesday-2315/) - In his real-money POV auto-trading, Mike’s went 6 out of 8 with a profit of $947.50 using 9 contracts and net of a $20/contract transaction cost. The score in Mike’s live TRADING ROOM was 5 for 6 and $1,445.00, also net of $20/contract.
- [Mentor Mike's POV Auto-Trading is officially launched and off to a GRAND-A-DAY start – Monday, 2/2/15](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mikes-pov-auto-trading-is-officially-launched-and-off-to-a-grand-a-day-start-monday-2215/) - Our first two live POV auto-trades were both successful and I think we hit our goal of $1,000 net per 9 contracts. I say “think” because I didn’t have Ninja set to deduct a transaction cost until half way through the process. Attached are screencaps of my chart and performance summary. They both show a net of $1,322.50 and the summary shows commissions of -$190. Based on $20 all-in per contract, my total costs should be -$360. So, most of the costs on the first trade didn’t get deducted. If I subtract 170 (360 – 190 = 170) from $1,322.50, the more accurate net would be $1,152.50. Some of my stalwart students were practice trading with me earlier when I got Striker’s emails about going live. I had planned to bring them back onboard once I got the dedicated trading computer up and running but there wasn’t time. I saw the market poised to drop like a stone and didn’t want to risk missing those beautiful short trades. Don’t worry, GADGETS. You’ll be there with me tomorrow. This is exciting. Our thanks to all of the good guys at Striker for this great opportunity to help people make money in the market.

Today’s score is again net of a $20 per contract transaction cost. That is the amount that will be applied in our auto-trading program with Striker Securities.

- [Want Mentor Mike to earn a Grand-A-Day for you?  Check out Mike’s practice trades for our upcoming auto-trading project](https://ptausa.com/want-mentor-mike-to-earn-a-grand-a-day-for-you-check-out-mikes-practice-trades-for-our-upcoming-auto-trading-project/) - When someone else trades your account for you, the per-contract transaction charge is more than what you would pay if you were trading your account yourself. We do not yet know what our per-contract transaction charge will be in our new auto-trading program. So for practice, Mike is using a flat rate charge of $35 per contract. The score shown on the chart screen capture below is net of that $35/contract transaction cost. Also shown is the NinjTrader performance summary. Note that the commissions are greater than the net profit. But that’s okay. The net profit to the client is still over a Grand-A-Day. The exact set up is still subject to change, but the plan is that each client can decide how many contracts to risk: 1, 3, 6 or 9 and then fund the account accordingly: $5,000 for 1, $10,000 for 3, $20,000 for 6 and $30,000 for 9. The client can stay at one level or grow the account to qualify for a higher level. Mike’s daily goal will be to earn at least $112.50 net per contract. Thus, a client at the 9-contract level would be making over $1,000 per day.

As I was making a screen capture of the chart I noticed the price start to break to the downside. I went short and picked up two more targets. Now it was 8 out of 9 and something over $2,200. As I was saving a new screencap, price broke to the upside. I went long and got two more targets. The score was now 9 out of 10 and $2,949.50. I thought, “Too bad. So close to $3 Grand.” I grabbed a snack in the kitchen and when I returned I saw the price starting to move up again. I went long one more time and hit two more targets. Now we were 10 for 11 and $3,852. Now I thought, “Damn! So close to $4 Grand!” Sure enough, the price rose once more. This time I did a 9-contract, 3-tick scalp and ended the day once and for all with 11 out 12 and a net of $4,135.50. I more than doubled our score in the 45 minutes after the ROOM closed.

- [Another Winning Day in Mentor Mike’s final live TRADING ROOM of 2014](https://ptausa.com/another-winning-day-in-mentor-mikes-final-live-trading-room-of-2014/) - After a gap down at the open, the market spent the next two hours in a choppy, sideways consolidation. My entries were too slow and cautious so by 9:00 am PST, we were in the hole nearly -$1,200. Luckily around 9:20, the market finally gained some bearish volatility and I was able to us CFB Mode to get back in the money with a score of +$234.50. And, that’s where we ended up when the ROOM closed at 12 noon. FYI, that gives a grand total of $14,000 net for the eight TRADING ROOM days in December and a daily average of $1,750. If you are a non-student reading this online, remember our holiday tuition discount ends at midnight, 12/31/14. HAPPY NEW YEAR! Everyone enjoy this time with family and friends.

Our score today was 4 out of 7 and -$2,065.50. As bad as that sounds, our average for the seven Trading Room days so far in December is still in excess of $1,900 per day. The market never really broke out of its relatively narrow range. None of our winners went beyond the first target. And, our three back-to-back losers were all taken on good signals but lacked the volatility to go anywhere. The ES daily volume that normally tops 1 million contracts easily, didn’t even make it to 800K today. Many pros take the last half of December off, but I want my GADGETS to test their skills under the widest variety of market conditions. If you are a non-student reading this online, remember our holiday tuition discount ends one week from tomorrow. Everyone enjoy this time with family and friends.

It was also our 11th consecutive winning day in our live TRADING ROOM. Our longest previous streak is 13 consecutive winning days in September and October. There are two more TRADING ROOM days in December. Will we tie our record before NEW YEAR? We had a scheduling snafu in the ROOM today and had to close for an hour to allow fellow mentor, Glen Thompson, to present his webinar on investment opportunities for 2015. The bright, lime green arrows mark the three trades taken during that down time. My apologies for the inconvenience. My GADGETS and I will be back in the live TRADING ROOM on Tuesday.

It was also our 9th consecutive winning day in our live TRADING ROOM. We know that no signal works 100% of the time. If it did, it would be the Holy Grail of Trading, the secret would soon spread and treading as we know it, would cease. Thus, our normally-reliable Donchian Channel breakout handed us two back-to-back fakeouts today that put us about $500 in the hole. But, the purpose of the TRADING ROOM is to hone our skills in every type of situation. So, we shifted into CFB* Mode (*Come From Behind). On the next trade, we were back in the black and never looked back. Have a great weekend. See everyone back in the ROOM on Tuesday

And, you can save even more. Three members of the same family, service club or church can take the course for $2,995. All three get access to the video lessons and live TRADING ROOM. The only restriction is that the personal phone conferences with Mike will be classroom style, not individually. Make 2015 the year it all changes for the better
- [Another GRAND-A-DAY X 3 in Mentor Mike’s live TRADING ROOM for Tuesday, 12/9/14](https://ptausa.com/another-grand-a-day-x-3-in-mentor-mikes-live-trading-room-for-tuesday-12914/) - Our final score today was 11 out of 12 and a net of $3,077. It was also our 8th consecutive winning day in the ROOM. I brought in a little over $1,800 from my premarket trades. When the ROOM closed at 12 noon PST, we were up to nearly $2,700. Just as I was clicking out of GoToWebinar, I saw the market start to break to the upside. I quickly calculated that I only need a 4-tick scalp with 9 contracts to break a GRAND-A-DAY X 3, so I went for it and won. Remember to send me your screencaps, Guys. One of the best things about our live TRADING ROOM is giving support and inspiration to our fellow traders. So, show off those charts when you’ve had a good day. Have a great evening. See everyone back in the ROOM on Thursday (and remember, we’ll be rolling over to the March, 2015, contract).

But, we managed to reverse direction and use a modified 1TG (one-trade Grand) maneuver to get us back to our GRAND-A-DAY goal. Final score: we won 6 out of 8 trades and netted $1,318.00 in our 7th consecutive winning TRADING ROOM day.

Mentor Mike and his GADGETS are human after all!](https://ptausa.com/omg-after-12-consecutive-winning-days-a-loser-in-the-trading-room-mentor-mike-and-his-gadgets-are-human-after-all/) - Fellow Traders: Yes, after 12 consecutive winning days in my live TRADING ROOM, we finally proved our humanity with a losing day. And, in keeping with the motto, “Go big or go home,” it was a doozy: -$5,469 with 5 losing trades and 4 of them in a row. After earning a GRAND-A-DAY on the first 3 trades, lengthy consolidation had me buying highs and selling lows the rest of the day. But, to put it in perspective, this was only a couple hundred more than the best TRADING ROOM day we had in October (+$5,245). Days like today highlight the wisdom in using a monetary target like our Grand-A-Day as an exit strategy in live trading. But when we are training, we need to test our skills against all market conditions. It appears our technique for sideways channels needs some work. And, don’t miss my next webinar: HOW TO PLAY 'BEAT THE MARKET'! Thursday, November 06, 2014 5:30PM EST http://onlinetradercentral.com/presenter_QZ5Y7Q.asp

In addition, we made a clean sweep of October. We earned our GRAND-A-DAY (sometimes multiple times) in every one of the nine (9) TRADING ROOM days this month. I can’t promise we will do the same in November, but I will promise to try my hardest to make it happen.

I was busy playing with my two new best friends, Orville and Wilbur. See their picture attached with their favorite stuffed monkey. They are brothers from the same litter although they look nothing alike. When I searched online for names of famous brothers, the Wright Brothers topped every list. So, meet Orrie & Willy. We started the TRADING ROOM at zero – no premarket cushion. When the ROOM closed at 12 noon PST, we were up $443, a respectable score, but no GRAND-A-DAY. BUT, at 12:01 pm, the market broke once more to the upside. I went for a quick scalp and got our score up to $1,176.50. That means we have earned a GRAND-A-DAY or better every TRADING ROOM day this month with one more to go. But no matter what happens on Thursday, it’s been a great month and I’m looking forward to giving a full recap in my latest webinar this Saturday: Pacific Trading Academy presents A LOOK INSIDE MENTOR MIKE’S LIVE TRADING ROOM Saturday, November 1, 2014, 9am Pacific Time Mike’s presentations are always filled to capacity, so register NOW: https://www3.gotomeeting.com/register/649119526

Mentor Mike has a map to the market. It’s called Elliott Wave Theory. Would you like to learn what Mike teaches? If not, you’re clearly not serious about becoming a good trader. And, FYI, you can see Mike make another GRAND-A-DAY. As if we needed to tell you again.

I brought $1,092.00 on 3 trades into the TRADING ROOM when it opened. Thereafter, our score went up to about $2,200, and down to about -$600. BUT, we finished with a whole new GRAND-A-DAY: $1,093.50. It only took five hours and eight more trades to earn that $1.50. That’s how trading is sometimes. Pilots say any landing you can walk away from is a good one. I say, any trading day you finish in the money is a good one. Everyone have a great weekend. See you back in the TRADING ROOM on Tuesday.
- [Another GRAND-A-DAY X 3 in Mentor Mike's live TRADING ROOM for Tuesday, 10/21/14](https://ptausa.com/another-grand-a-day-x-3-in-mentor-mikes-live-trading-room-for-tuesday-102114/) - Fellow Traders: Our final score today was 6 for 7 and a net of $3,159.50.

Is he right? Well, if you watch this short video you will see Mike earn another GRAND-A-DAY just as he has done every single trading for the month of October. Then you can decide for yourself.
- [Another GRAND-A-DAY in Mentor Mike's REAL-TIME Video Trading Room for Friday, 10/17/14](https://ptausa.com/another-grand-a-day-in-mentor-mikes-real-time-video-trading-room-for-friday-101714/) - Today’s short video begins at about 6:29 am PDT, one minute before the open of the S&P Emini day session. I tell you that the market has traded higher in the pre-market and that I intend to get short to exploit the probability that the market will move down to fill the gap. Less than four minutes later, the market did what I predicted and I earned another GRAND-A-DAY – in real time, before your very eyes. How did your trading go today? If it didn’t go as well as mine, perhaps you should become my student. Everyone have a great weekend. See you back here on Monday.
- [Another GRAND-A-DAY X 3 in Mentor Mike's live TRADING ROOM for Thursday, 10/16/14](https://ptausa.com/another-grand-a-day-x-3-in-mentor-mikes-live-trading-room-for-thursday-101614/) - Fellow Traders: Our final score today was about $3,700. The chart says $6,700 but around 7:30 am PDT this morning, we had an apparent glitch in our data feed. A short trade that made around $1,000 registered on the DOM for nearly three times that much. So even though I don’t have our score down to the penny, I can safely say it was at least $3,700. We also went 22 for 24 in this extremely volatile day. Everyone have a great evening. See you back in the ROOM on Tuesday.

- [Mentor Mike's live TRADING ROOM for Tuesday, 9/16/14](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mikes-live-trading-room-for-tuesday-91614/) - Fellow Traders: I earned my Grand-A-Day just after 7am PDT and quit for the day. I opened the ROOM with about $600 in the account from pre-market trades. When we closed at 12 noon we had over $2,200 in closed profit and had just entered a short trade. After repeatedly flirting with the first target, the market popped up, and I manually pulled the plug, dropping our score to about $1,550. When price began to sell off again, I took one more short and finished with $1,651.50, maintaining our Grand-A-Day goal. Have a pleasant evening. See you all back in the TRADING ROOM on Thursday.

- [Mentor Mike's live TRADING ROOM for Thursday, 9/11/14](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mikes-live-trading-room-for-thursday-91114/) - I made $1,146.50 in my personal account by about 8:15am and called it a day. At that time, we were up about $1,400 in the ROOM. An erroneous bearish EW prediction faked me out twice on the short side and put us about $1K in the hole. I switched to CFB Mode and it almost worked. My target was at 1989.75 which ended up being the high of the day. The market touched it repeatedly, but no fill. If the target had been hit, we would have finished a few dollars (probably less than $100) in the black. The market closed with my last trade in the money, but about 3 ticks from getting us fully out of the hole. Final score: -$290. This concludes the trial period for some of you. Let’s take a look at the last four TRADING ROOM scores. 9/2= $1,817.50; 9/4= $1,031; 9/9= $1,057; 9/11= -$290. The daily average is $903.87. I am looking forward to working with those of you who elected to enroll in the full course. Best of luck to the rest who are leaving us after today. Have a pleasant evening.

- [Mentor Mike's live TRADING ROOM for Tuesday, 9/9/14](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mikes-live-trading-room-for-tuesday-9914/) - Fellow Traders: I earned my personal Grand-A-Day before the ROOM even opened. As for our trading in the ROOM, we had yet another profitable, GADGET day but it was a real roller coaster ride score wise. I had made over $1,100 in the TRADING ROOM demo account by the time we opened at 7am PDT. But a short time later, we got caught in a complex correction that faked me out twice on the short side and once on the long side. By about 10am PDT, we were in the hole -$3,965! So, I changed from my basic multi-target, peeling-off strategy to my consolidated target CFB* Mode (*Come-From-Behind). By 12:30pm PDT, the score was +$98.50 – no king’s ransom, but way better than the alternative. Even though I was back in the money, such as it was, I decided to stay in my more aggressive CFB Mode. And by the time the day session ended at 1:15pm PDT, our final TRADING ROOM score was . . . wait for it . . . $1,057! That’s right. I got the TRADING ROOM account back to our GADGET goal. Are there still any of you who think that making $1,000 day trading the S&P Emini is an impossible goal? There are a couple important takeaways from our experience today. First, a trader’s trading plan must include an exit strategy. Will you trade until you reach a monetary goal, or for some specific period of time, or until the happening of some event, etc.? You need to know in advance when it’s time to quit and then stick to the plan. In the ROOM we trade for the allotted time, 7am to 12 noon, and I will often continue to trade thereafter if we haven’t reached our GADGET goal by noon. In my personal account, I typically shoot for $1,000, and then call it a day. Having a plan is more important than the contents of the plan. The second point is this: if you get in a hole, never risk more than your normal Money Management strategy dictates. I climbed out of hole today that was nearly $4K deep, but I never risked more than my usual 9 contracts.

- [Mentor Mike's live TRADING ROOM for Thursday, 9/4/14](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mikes-live-trading-room-for-thursday-9414/) - We had another profitable day in the TRADING ROOM. I manually pulled the plug on the last short trade with 1 tick profit in the ROOM account and 2 ticks in my personal account. I normally preach against such an emotionally motivated maneuver, but I was envisioning an Elliott Wave scenario in which the market would start moving up. So, I justified my erroneous action based on “experience.” But the market has a sense of humor and true to form it dropped like a stone within seconds of my exit. My personal final score was $1,026.50, but in the ROOM we were still short of our Grand-A-Day GADGET goal by a hair, finishing with $914 when we closed at noon. However, within a few minutes of closing the doors, I saw the market still wanted to go lower. A couple of quick scalps on the short side put us over the top with $1,031. And, remember all scores are a net of a $6 per contract transaction charge. Everyone have a great evening. See you next time.

- [Near Term Trades](https://ptausa.com/near-term-trades/) - Sometimes when one's pristine analysis comes short of isolating areas of value in a financial market, using a more unorthodox approach will locate good trades.
- [Mentor Mike's TRADING ROOM for Thursday, 7/10/14](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mikes-trading-room-for-thursday-71014/) - Fellow Traders: In today’s TRADING ROOM, we were definitely the Grand-A-Day Group of Emini Traders. We ended our session with a very respectable score of $1,459* (*net of transaction costs of $6/contract). I had to revise yesterday’s EW count when I saw that the market was gapping down over 20 points. But, the market’s slow and steady climb back up gave us several conservative trading opportunities. I topped my GADGET goal in my personal account around 9:30am PDT. I have some business out of the office tomorrow. My wife’s birthday is on Saturday and our wedding anniversary is on Sunday. So, I might not be able to trade much, or put out an email update tomorrow. If that’s the case, have a great weekend and we’ll see you all back in the TRADING ROOM next Tuesday.

- [Mentor Mike's Webinar Video: "Follow the Red, White & Blue to Go for the Gold"](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mikes-webinar-video-follow-the-red-white-blue-to-go-for-the-gold/) - Join “Mentor” Mike Bridges for his most comprehensive and revealing webinar ever: “FOLLOW THE RED, WHITE & BLUE TO GET TO THE GOLD.” He’ll be covering the following topics and more: The “Trend-Defining Moving Average:” Price is like a pendulum swinging back and forth in constant oscillation. There is a zone within the pendulum’s arc in between the turning points at either end. Sometimes the pendulum is moving toward the zone, sometimes it’s moving away from it. The Trend-Definer is at the price’s in-between zone. But, unlike the pendulum’s it isn’t always in the exact middle of the arc. Frequently its position is closer to one turning point than the other by some Fibonacci ratio. And, like the movement of the pendulum, toward and away from its in-between zone, the price moves toward the Trend-Definer (an “Outside-In” trade), or away from the Trend-Definer (an “Inside-Out” trade). The “Directional MA Trio:” How do we confirm if the price is moving “Inside-Out” or “Outside-In?” By the alignment of the red, white and blue “Directional Moving Average Trio.” Most of us are already programmed to think of those three colors in that specific order. If they align from bottom up, the market is bullish; if they align from the top down, the market is bearish. If the alignment is moving toward the Trend-Definer, it’s an Outside-In trade; if it’s moving away, the trade is Inside-Out. The “Peeling-Off Strategy:” Once in a trade, we never know if we will get a long ride or a short one, and we have to make a profit either way. The “Peeling-Off Strategy” provides the best method for covering both potential outcomes. But, how do we set targets, and trail stops? Either we allow our emotions to dictate our actions or, we trust the mathematics of market movement. Two technical tools from the fertile mind of Welles Wilder are perfect for these two critical elements of money management: the Average True Range for setting targets, and the Parabolic SAR for trailing stops. Mentor Mike’s S&P Emini Day Trading Video Course/Trading Room/Education Room Package: If our technical analysis techniques and money management methods might be what you’ve been looking for, learn how to get the details of Pacific Trading Academy’s newest and best offering in the realm of trading education and experience.

Given the downtrend line from 5/18 has been broken to the upside, and also the mkt price is at historic low price levels (refer to monthly chart), this may be a MAJOR BOTTOM.

- [Long Term Market Forecasting](https://ptausa.com/long-term-market-forecasting/) - The blog I posted back on April 19, 2012 is coming to fruition. Yesterday's market reaction in gold was in response to Warren Buffet and Bill Gates comments, which basically agreed with my previous analysis. Finally, prices broke the 2 month consolidation and gold dropped below $1600/oz. The bear market is now in motion! Find out how to analyze long term market trends.

- [GOLD](https://ptausa.com/gold/) - In the hyperinflation that reached the peak in January 1980, gold prices peaked at $870/oz. After retreating in the following years to a low of 300/oz, the 9/11 attack started a bull market that propelled gold prices to more than double, and they reached $1900/oz in September 2001.

- [Trading With and against the Trend](https://ptausa.com/trading-with-and-against-the-trend/) - Whenever you put on a trade, do you ever wonder if you are going with the trend or against it? Or do you simply follow mechanical signals generated by a bunch of indicators and oscillators? Does it make any difference? Leaning heavily on lagging indicators’ signals without understanding which way the market is leaning is trading in the dark. The astute trader knows which direction the market is showing bias. Proper chart reading shines a bright light on this important aspect of trading. There is an old saying in trading: trade with the trend because the trend is your friend. I have an updated version: trade with a strong trend, because it is a better friend. If you are a trend follower, you place a trade when you see a trend developing. However, in order to stay in the trade, you need to see that the trend still has enough energy to continue. Otherwise, you may give back a large portion of your open profit. In other words, be careful when the trend is waning and coming to an end. If you are a momentum trader, you need to evaluate trend strength properly to get onboard a very strong trend. A good example is the breakout trader who gets in with the trend that needs to be very strong at the point of entry. Otherwise, he will get caught in a false breakout. If you like to fade the market, that is, pick highs and lows, you need a trend that is slowing down and losing momentum. Applying powerful tools such as Fibonacci ratios can provide a mathematical price to enter. However, you’d still need to read the chart properly for weakening trend strength. Otherwise, price action may blow through one set of Fibonacci cluster to make the turn at the next cluster. Some of the price structures that I use to determine trend strength are very simple and easy to apply. They are part of a methodology I call SuperStructureTrading. If you are curious to learn more, please sign up for our next free webinar. You will learn how to use tools that will improve your trading no matter what type of trader you are.

- [Mentor Mike’s Daily Turning Points for Tuesday 8/16/11](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mike’s-daily-turning-points-for-tuesday-81611/) - Today’s ES has a HI-LO-HI skewed to the later end of the session. Be back tomorrow.
- [Mentor Mike’s Daily Turning Points for Monday 8/15/11](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mike’s-daily-turning-points-for-monday-81511/) - I am back from Paris, London, Copenhagen, Stockholm, Helsinki, St. Petersburg and Tallin (that’s in Estonia). I did manage to watch the BBC and CNN International in between sightseeing and eating. It appears I missed some serious volatility surrounding the debt ceiling debacle and subsequent credit rating reduction. I hope you all made fantastic profits while I was gone. After three weeks away, I need to ease back into my regular routine. So today, I focused exclusively on the ES and may continue to do so for at least the rest of August. That market produced a good HI-LO-HI configuration with the middle LO skewed toward the early end of the session. Traveling is one of the great perks of the trading lifestyle, but as Dorothy said, “There’s no place like home.” It’s good to be back. See you here again tomorrow.
- [Commodities Instruction](https://ptausa.com/commodities-instruction/) - Today the stock market and crude oil collapsed! Is this a trend or a correction? Time to measure the psychology of the market. My students and I follow a mechanical method that measures the market psychology and use this information to position our trades. So far, we were short the stock market and short the crude oil. What's next? According to the psychology indicators, we are looking for a major sell-off in gold. Join the Webinar and learn how to detect market turning points. Happy Trading!
- [ ORDER RESTORED TO THE EQUITY MARKET](https://ptausa.com/order-restored-to-the-equity-market/)
- [Mentor Mike’s Daily Turning Points for Friday 7/22/11](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mike’s-daily-turning-points-for-friday-72211/) - Today both markets showed well-formed LO-HI-LO formations that were neatly within the NYSE day session. Today is also my last blog for awhile. I will be back on Monday, 8/15/11. In the meantime, practice your turning point watching skills. Have a great time. Be back in three weeks.
- [Mentor Mike’s Daily Turning Points for Thursday 7/21/11](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mike’s-daily-turning-points-for-thursday-72111/) - Today the EUR/USD appears to have a super-elongated LO-HI-LO that began in the premarket. The ES has a very shallow and compact HI-LO-HI. Have a great evening. Be back tomorrow.
- [Mentor Mike’s Daily Turning Points for Wednesday 7/20/11](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mike’s-daily-turning-points-for-wednesday-72011/) - Today both markets appear to have produced four turning points, a rare but not impossible configuration. I used a MACD histogram and Stochastic combo. Have a great evening. Be back tomorrow.
- [TRADE ALERT](https://ptausa.com/trade-alert/) - Regarding the SELL GCQ11 signal that we had last week. I have a sell-stop order GCQ @ 1576, the signal day....just waiting for confirmation. I love to pick mkt tops. If u r interested in following my trading system, join one of my Free Webinars!!! Trading Plan: If confirmed, and price breaks the low of 7/15 @ 1576, our signal trigger price, GO SHORT!
- [Mentor Mike’s Daily Turning Points for Tuesday 7/19/11](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mike’s-daily-turning-points-for-tuesday-71911/) - Today I used a real minimalist version of my dual MACD histogram template. Can you see my entry signals? They’re quite obvious. Have a great evening. Be back tomorrow.
- [Mentor Mike’s Daily Turning Points for Friday 7/15/11](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mike’s-daily-turning-points-for-friday-71511/) - Today I increased my MACD histogram parameters to 144/377/89. This means it is above zero when price is above the 144 MA and below zero when price is below the 144 MA. I took trades only when the MACD and Stoch were aligned. E.g., on the EUR, the histogram was negative so I only traded short and only when the Stoch was bearish. On the ES, the histogram was positive so I only went long when the Stoch was bullish. Both markets displayed LO-HI-LO configurations – the opposite of yesterday. Have a great weekend. Be back Monday.
- [Mentor Mike’s Daily Turning Points for Monday 7/18/11](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mike’s-daily-turning-points-for-monday-71811/) - Today I used a dual MACD histogram and a slowed single stochastic. Can you see the relationship between the MACD histograms and the position of the price and the 34 and 144 MAs? Have a great evening. Be back tomorrow.
- [Mentor Mike’s Daily Turning Points for Thursday 7/14/11](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mike’s-daily-turning-points-for-thursday-71411/) - Today both markets displayed HI-LO-HI configurations – the opposite of yesterday. This alternation of the turning point pattern happens most days, but is disrupted when there are two or four turning points. Have a great evening. Be back tomorrow.
- [Mentor Mike’s Daily Turning Points for Wednesday 7/13/11](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mike’s-daily-turning-points-for-wednesday-71311/) - Today both markets displayed LO-HI-LO configurations neatly within the NYSE day session. We have had a number of less-typical days lately, but this type of 3-point pattern is still the norm. Please remember, I will be on vacation from July 24 through August 14. I was thinking I would be out for two weeks; turns out, it’s actually three. No matter. I’m sure you will be able to find your turning points just fine without me until I return. Have a great evening. Be back tomorrow.
- [Mentor Mike’s Daily Turning Points for Tuesday 7/12/11](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mike’s-daily-turning-points-for-tuesday-71211/) - Today both markets displayed HI-LO-HI configurations. The ES was skewed later and the EUR/USD was skewed earlier with the first HI in the premarket. Today is my wife’s birthday, and tomorrow is our wedding anniversary. How’s that for good planning? Two important dates back to back. Also, please remember, I will be on vacation from July 24 through August 14. Our destinations include Paris, London, Copenhagen, Stockholm, Helsinki and St. Petersburg. I have trading to thank for such freedom. It is definitely the world’s best business. Have a great evening. Be back tomorrow.
- [Mentor Mike’s Daily Turning Points for Monday 7/11/11](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mike’s-daily-turning-points-for-monday-71111/) - Today the EUR/USD had four turning points evenly spaced throughout the NYSE day session. The ES had a HI-LO-HI, with a tiny zig-zag between the LO and last HI which were skewed toward the end of the day. FYI, I am around the rest of this week and next, but thereafter I will be on vacation from July 24 through August 14. Have a great evening. Be back tomorrow.
- [Mentor Mike’s Daily Turning Points for Friday, 7/8/11](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mike’s-daily-turning-points-for-friday-7811/) - No trading today. I was busy putting the finishing touches on my webinar. But, I marked the charts with the trades I would normally have taken. Have a great weekend. Be back Monday.

I’m getting ready for my next webinar. This one is hosted by Ninja Trader so check their web site for details. It’s tomorrow at 1:15 pm PDT.

- [Mentor Mike’s Daily Turning Points for Wednesday 7/6/11](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mike’s-daily-turning-points-for-wednesday-7611/) - Today, I again substituted a CCI histogram for the MACD histogram while keeping the MACD lines. Both markets had four points: HI-LO-HI-LO. I also tried my hand at some Elliott Wave counting. Every daily turning point is always some type of EW point as well. Hopefully by now, you have had a chance to read the contents of My Technical Toolbox, My Money Management Plan, How to Read the Chart Notations and Daily Turning Points. If you ever need a refresher, just pull up any issue from last month.

- [Mentor Mike’s Daily Turning Points for Wednesday, 6/29/11](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mike’s-daily-turning-points-for-wednesday-62911/) - The ES (Chart #2) had a well-formed LO-HI-LO neatly segregated by the red, long-term Parabolic. The EUR/USD had a similar configuration based on the 34-bar MA, Histogram and most of the other markers, but the Parabolic got strangely skewed by the spiked selloff that occurred around 5:30 am. According to www.marketwatch.com the only economic report today was “Pending Home Sales” which certainly could have provoked a bearish reaction, but it was not due until 10am Eastern time. So, I’m not sure what spooked the market that early. Oh, well. Have a great evening. Be back tomorrow.
- [Mentor Mike’s Daily Turning Points for Tuesday, 6/28/11](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mike’s-daily-turning-points-for-tuesday-62811/) - The EUR/USD ended up with a HI-LO-HI. The ES was bullishly unidirectional with LO-HI. Have a great evening. Be back tomorrow.
- [ Mentor Mike’s Daily Turning Points for Monday, 6/27/11](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mike’s-daily-turning-points-for-monday-62711/) - Today the EUR/USD had a LO-HI-LO configuration. The ES was more bullishly unidirectional with only two points: LO-HI. While I like the simplicity, of using the alignment of moving averages only, my long parabolic work very well to isolate the turning points in a clear and unmistaken way.

- [Mentor Mike’s Daily Turning Points for Friday, 6/24/11](https://ptausa.com/mentor-mike’s-daily-turning-points-for-friday-62411/) - Today both markets had elongated HI-LO-HI configurations with the first turning point in the premarket. I took a shot at the EW count just to keep in practice. Remember, there’s no objective standard that proves if my wave count is correct. Have a great weekend. Be back Monday
