Welcome to our new Trade Alerts service. The service provides Real Time Trading Recommendations for all seven commodity groups: the Grains, Meats, Softs, Metals, Energies, Currencies and Financials.

The service delivers Trading Alerts via e-mail to customers and brokers during trading market sessions. At the same time, the trades are executed on OmniTrader - an independent Simulated Trading platform that creates a tracking records for the system performance. The Recommendations provide entry prices, as well as loss stops and minimum profit targets.

The Trading Recommendations are based on Atlas-35 trading system.

Description/Trading Methodology

Real Time Atlas-35 is a intraday modification of Atlas-35 trading system. As part of our ongoing research this year, we developed and released a powerful new intraday trading program called Real Time Atlas-35. One benefit of this research is that it helped  us discover some effective new filter techniques which we then realized could be implemented in our Trading Alerts Engine during market sessions to improve the Atlas-35 methodology.

Real Time Atlas-35 works with real time market data and scans the different markets across multiple time frames. Again, Real Time Atlas-35 utilizes a computerized technical analysis of more than 100 technical indicators to form a consensus on Vote Line and issue trading signals based on the testing score. In addition, calculations on two Moving Averages and a new set of Trading Systems based exclusively on volume indicators are used to confirm a signal. 

We set out to improve the underlying Trading Engine to provide better signals, while also improving the automation of the trading program. By focusing on Entries and Exits, we have improved the trading system in several important ways. First, the new Entry Filters provide fewer, more profitable signals - which means you will generally see better opportunities in the Trading Alerts. Second, the Exits have been dramatically improved - the trading system inhibits optimization until the current trade is closed on the Vote Line, which means you can follow every trade to its ultimate conclusion.

Entries and Exits are defined in short term Active Trading Model, which model works by passing or inhibiting trading signals through the application of the Trending or Reversal Filters, and by applying calculated Fixed Loss Stops and Targets. By improving the Filters and Exits within this short term Active Trading Model, we have been able to improve virtually every profile in the system. 

Risk and Money Management

Of course, entries are just one side of the trading problem. Where people usually get into trouble is on their exits - stops and targets. You must apply a sound exit methodology or you will end up holding losers too long and/or getting our of good trades too early. That's where the second major improvement to the trading systems come into play, Stops and Targets.  In Real Time Atlas-35 stops and target are calculated automatically after the entering price, on the base of the volatility and margin calculations, as well as pivot point calculations.

A new Tool was introduced as a Visual Trade Management Tool and all the exits have been enhanced to display on the charts as they form. The new Tool Exits are designed to  keep you in a profitable trade as long as the trade is moving in your favor, and also to stop out of a position when it turns around. And, because the exits are visual, it is much easier to follow the progress of your trades; you can see where the next exit point is, giving you a clearer understanding of where your stop should be placed.

The Tool Exit is designed to automatically "follow" each trade, using Average True Range measurements. Special rules take into account "minor excursions" in order to prevent a trade from stopping out of a good position prematurely. It is amazing how often this exit technique provides an optimal stop loss and target levels.
