Beating The Trend

Frequently Asked Questions

 

Below is a list of questions frequently asked by guests to my website. I hope you find the answers you are looking for. If not, you are welcome to email me and I will respond as soon as I can.

 

Does the system work with futures?

The trading system was designed for stock and options trading, but has been used successfully by many futures traders. You will need to adapt some of the criteria, but the patterns the system finds are relevant for all markets...including futures.

I live outside the United States. Will the system work in my country?

The system is based on patterns that exist in all markets. While many of my customers prefer to trade their own markets, others have found it beneficial to trade US markets from their home countries. The guide will give you information about a very inexpensive online broker that will make it easy for you to trade here in the United States where there are far more companies to choose from.

What do I get with the system?

The trading system includes an in depth guide to a very specific trading system that will teach you how to profit quickly from short-term pullbacks in the market. You will also get all of the other bonus products mentioned on my homepage.

Can I pay via fax or with a check or money order?

Yes...you may fax your order if you like. Send your fax to (508)664-8520. Be sure to include your email address so that I can deliver the product to you right way.

You may also order by mail if you send a check or money order (In US funds) to:

I am a beginning trader. Will I be able to understand it?

Absolutely! This system is great for new and seasoned traders. It is written in clear and precise terms so it can be easily understood and used by anyone. Experienced traders frequently email me about their success as well.

How will the trading system be delivered?

The trading guide is delivered via the internet as an ebook. You will have access the moment your order is approved. You are also welcome to print out the guide and bonuses if you wish.

Can I print out the trading guide?

Yes. While the guide is copy written, as a customer, you are welcome to print the guide if you like. We are working on a PDF file that will soon be available to make printing even easier.

If I request the free charting software trial, how and when will I get it?

The Worden's Telechart TC2005 charting software can be downloaded as soon as you sign up for their 30 day free trial. Once you have purchased our Beating The Trend System you can download our parameters and import them into the software .

What other software will work to search for stocks besides Telechart?

I am recommending Telecharts because it is the least expensive and simplest alternative I've found. Of course it is also preprogrammable with my criteria.

Any other third-party charting program will work...so long as it will allow you to compare price and volume data from one day with the price and volume data for the previous day.

Many people are using a program called Metastock. This software seems to be good for customers outside the United States. I am not familiar with any other inexpensive service options, but I know they are out there.

You can use the instructions for programming TC2005 as a guide to help you program other software options you may be using. The formulas are relatively simple.

Are there any other charges related to Worden's Telechart charting software if I keep it beyond the free trial?

Yes they have several different subscriptions to choose from on their site after your Telechart free trial is over. Monthly subscriptions start at $29.99 per month.

Is software required to use the system?

No. While software is not "required" to trade this system successfully, it is recommended. The nominal cost is easily justified when you are able to save time and be sure to find all the viable trades as they become available.

Do you provide technical support?

I have done my best to make the trading guide as comprehensive as possible. This has made it unnecessary for most people to require help. However, there are questions from time to time. I am available on a limited basis to answer questions you may have...so long as you understand that I have thousands of customers and I am the only one here to support you. Please do your best to find the answers in the trading guide first. If you still need help, please be patient with me and I will respond as soon as I can.

What will happen if lots of people trade the system?

Well all be rich in a week...just kidding! Eventually, as more and more people learn to identify the picks that are about to surge, we may all begin to move the market some...since we will all be entering our trades at the same time. However, this system works great right now. More people trading may have the potential of making it even better for us all...in the future.

Is it necessary for me to use real-time data?

Not necessarily...however, most online brokers are now providing it for free anyway. It is nice when you are entering and exiting your trades as it can provide you with a chance to enhance your price. But you can just as easily use limit orders and have the market get you in and out of your trades automatically.

How many trades does the system usually find?

Our goal when trading is to consistently make money. It is not to be in the market all the time. Quality is far more important than quantity...especially when we are all so busy. This system will vary in the quantity of picks you will find from time to time. It works best when the whole market (or at least certain sectors) knows what it wants and is moving in one direction or another. The most difficult market for any trader is when the market going nowhere.

There will be times when you have very few trades each week. At other times you will have more than you can manage. But the trades you will find must be quality...and that is what this system is about. If you just want to be in the market, this system is not for you. If you want to prosper and are patient, you've found the right solution.

Do you provide other services like a pick advisory or trading service?

At the moment, the trading guide is the only service I have to offer. I have had many requests for an advisory service providing daily picks and to trade accounts for others. While I don't expect to ever spend the time trading for others, I am considering an advisory service. If and when this becomes available I will let you know. But for now, the trading system is doing the job for those using it consistently.

How much time will I need to spend watching the market?

Not much. The idea is to find viable trades and go about your business. Most people like to watch the market when it opens and check in once or twice a day just to see how things are going...but you don't have to be glued to your computer all day long.

How much money must I have to start investing?

While it is nice to have $4-5,000 when starting out, you can get by with much less...say $400-500. This is especially true if you follow the rules and do some paper trading before you risk any of your hard-earned money.

Having a very inexpensive broker will also make a big difference when you have little capital to trade with. The guide will show you how to trade 100 shares of stock for only $1 every time...no kidding. So if you only have $500 in a trade, your total commission getting in and out of the trade would be $2...that is less than 1/2 of 1 percent.

How long will it take to learn the system?

Most people get the general concept the first time they read through the guide. It is written in very simple terms in an organized way. Some people find winning trades the first day, but I recommend that you not be in a hurry and begin by paper trading the system for awhile to get your certainty up. But you should understand the system enough to start testing it within a few hours.
