First Trading Day Of 2013 Exceeds Expectations For Emini Traders
The first trading day of 2013 the S&P500 Emini gapped open 19.25 points. Price spent the first 9 hours oscillating in a tight range around the 1446/1447 Weekly Trading Zone and then surged 10.75 points higher in afternoon trading to 1458 in less than an hour. The question now, will Asia and Europe continue the Wall Street rally, or use the opportunity to take profits?
Today's Live Trading Room Video Recap -
Our first trade out of the gate this morning was stopped out for a controlled loss. However, before the Live Trading Room closed at 11:30AM EST, we were positive on the day. This is a huge lesson in itself. Once you have a definable edge in the market, you must then develop the confidence to apply the edge every time the opportunity presents itself. This is more difficult than it sounds.

I don't like to use gambling analogies when discussing trading, but to make sure you understand the point I'm trying to make, I'm going to do it anyway. When you or I walk into a casino, we are gamblers. The odds are not in our favor. The casino itself however, is not a gambler. Even though they are taking the other side of our wager from Black Jack to Slots, we're gambling, but they're not.
The reason is, they have established a set of rules that put the odds in their favor. They never deviate from their rule book. Does this mean they win every hand of black jack that is played on their tables? Of course not. In fact, there are times when the "house" will lose 10 or more hands in a row. What do they do? Deal! Although they don't win every hand, they do win in the end. Those are the rules. After 10 losing hands they don't change their strategy, they don't go looking for new indicators, they simply deal the next hand.
They have the confidence to do this because they know over a large enough sample size, the deck is statistically stacked in their favor based on three critical factors:
- They have a proven statistical edge.
- They do not deviate from the written plan.
- They always play the next hand.
Again, this is easier said than done, but when you drive down the strip it's pretty obvious they're on to something. It costs real money to build those brightly lit palaces, the gambler's money. The casino is not gambling, they're running a business. Are you starting to see the difference?
The purposes of becoming a CFRN Partner are multi-faceted. At the top of the list is helping you change the way you think about trading. Our job is to help you see Emini Futures Trading as a business, not a gamble. Every business has expenses, trading is no different. Trades that don't turn a profit, are a cost of doing business. Unfortunately traders have a tendency to take it personal. Don't do it! Traders spend enormous sums of time and money chasing the secret sauce that will eliminate losing trades and the emotional pain they create. Your search is futile. The true secret is learning to look those trades straight in the eye and with a steady hand and a calm voice, simply say - "Deal". (We have this sauce in stock)
