E-mini Day Trading and Trend Trading Strategy, Part 2

An e-mini day trading and trend trading strategy for trend trading which has a superior risk/reward ratio.

Welcome to the second in my series of E-mini Day Trading Strategies.

In the previous video, I shared with you my “Rubber Band Trade,” which is essentially a reversion to the mean trade. It has a great win/loss ratio, but it’s usually a scalp trade and therefore doesn’t have a great risk/reward ratio.

In today’s video I share with you a trend trade which does have a superior risk/reward ratio, meaning that we expect to make much more money on our winners than we’re risking on the trade.

By the way, don’t forget that these strategies also work for swing trading and also with the stock market, the Forex market and commodities.

If you do trade a market other than the E-minis (I personally trade many different markets), you may want to consider only trade markets that have good volume and have professional participation.

For more extensive information about my trading method, sign up for my 5-Day Free Video Course (using the form in the top right section of this blog page).

    Hi Barry,

    Thank you for putting these videos on your sight they are very helpful. I am new to trading and want to learn more. I setup a “paper trading” account where I practise trading Iron condors and credit spreads. My question to you is How do you know which option strike price and legs to select when placing an Iron condor and/or credit spread trade? I’m doing OK but I am not understanding why the strikes that I am choosing are working ( I’m basically guessing)

    Thanks for your response

    Rob

      Hi Rob,

      Thanks for your question. It’s a good one, but much more involved than I can address in a simple blog comment response! One tip is to make sure that the strike prices have good volume and open interest. Very important for liquidity and to keep the spreads as small as possible. There are other strategic issues with those particular strategies, but again, too much to cover in a brief comment response.

    Thanks. Very insightful and helpful. My problem is that I come in early but I get out of a trade again and then come in again and repeat it until I come in when it has ended. I mostly know when it has ended but dont exit when I should

    I’ve been browsing online greater than three hours these days, but I by no means found
    any interesting article like yours. It’s lovely price sufficient for
    me. In my opinion, if all website owners and bloggers
    made just right content as you did, the web will probably be much
    more useful than ever before.
