Let's get straight to the key points of what we trade and how we display our personal trades.
What we trade:
We only trade the currency pair GBP/USD (£/US dollar sometimes referred to as 'cable'). We do not trade any other currency pair with the techniques we are using on this service. This pair is by far my most favourite and the market I have always specialized in. This is also good for members as with only one market 'pair' to observe it is less effort for them than jumping from pair to pair.
Our personal monthly 'average' target over the years is 400 pips and our aim and
focus is to achieve this into the future years. This 'average' target is based on
the two simple, easy to follow 'Set and Forget' systems we share with our members
titled System 1 and System 2 on the Results page. I do not like the word 'system'
as it suggests an ABC way of producing trades and it really is based on many factors,
but the key to our trading is to always keep it simple in its structure. We are not
re-
The System 1 and 2 'Set and Forget' trades contain a set of BUY and a SELL pending order values so that either scenario is covered for that particular day therefore this reduces the amount of work involved in following these trades. Should we personally conduct any additional actions to the systems we will email/SMS members to say we are personally doing so.
We have one additional system/technique that is more of an Intraday system (again not strictly a 'system'). This is labelled as System 3 on the Results page. System 3 results are not included in our monthly 'average' target of 400 pips. This is a system that compliments the 'Set and Forget' trades for the medium to long term (medium term to us is a minimum of 6 months). This type of system/technique is typically something I have 'mentored' on a one to one basis, with traders I have become friends with. I have never advertised as a mentor and do not plan to either, but always done so on a word of mouth basis. I have actually turned a few people away as I felt they wanted to 'get rich quick' or be 'flash' when it comes to trading and I am only interested in help develop 'grounded' people. The long term rewards for me personally taking this attitude far exceed any financial gains that could potentially be made. So please see the results for System 3 as additional for you as members. Also System 3 trades may enter quicker than the 'Set and Forget' Systems (within 5 minutes sometimes and other times it may take 30 minutes or more for a System 3 trade to enter) and the trade may even be cancelled before the trade has entered due to the market conditions changing. Should this be the case we email/SMS members we are personally cancelling the trade. The System 3 trade emails/SMS are included in the members subscription, but it will be up to the individual if they wish to look further into these details alongside the 'Set and Forget' Systems 1 and 2.
The System 3 'Intraday' trades (by email/SMS) contains either a BUY or a SELL pending order values as this is a specific trade for that period of the trading day (please see Q & A section for times of System trades on a daily basis). Should we personally conduct any additional actions to the system we will email/SMS members to say we are personally doing so.
Please be aware that it is common for us to personally have conflicting trades running at the same time... i.e. one system trade that wants the market to go up, and another that wants the market to go down. Whilst this might seem a little 'odd' to some each system/technique has it's own goals and as such they are working independently of one another and this is important to remember. The purpose of the Results page as we see it is to show the daily ups and downs that can occur. As I have said already, the future is all that matters... not the past. That said the past results are helpful to prepare anyone for the emotional ups and downs that trading in general can bring and also see the potential draw downs and continual profitable runs that occur on a month to month basis.
How we trade:
As a member we will send emails/SMS on a daily basis with the trades we are personally placing. Please see the following example of emails/SMS for the 'Set and Forget' Systems (both have the same email and SMS format) Please note, should a target be hit and a pending order is at all likely to enter before the pending trade expires we will email/SMS you to let you know we are personally cancelling that pending order, if this is not likely to happen before the expiry time we will not contact you as it reduces pointless emails/SMS's, we want to keep it simple:
-
We are personally placing the following pending orders
System 1
Our 1st trade pending order: (we will cancel other pending order if 'target' is hit on active trade)
BUY (Entry):1.49602
Stop Loss:1.48868
Target:1.49942
Expiry time: 17.00 hours (UK time) today.
Our 2nd trade pending order: (we will cancel other pending order if 'target' is hit on active trade)
SELL (Entry):1.48868
Stop Loss:1.49602
Target:1.48528
Expiry time: 17.00 hours (UK time) today.
You should always trade with a demo account until you feel emotionally ready with your personal trading to trade with real funds.

... and the same example trade sent as an SMS should look like this on your mobile phone/cell phone:
-
We are personally placing the following:
System 1
BUY: 1.49602
SL: 1.48868
T: 1.49942
-
SELL: 1.48868
SL: 1.49602
T: 1.48528
Expire: 17.00 hrs (UK) today.

Please note that some brokers use 5 digit prices (ours does) which means the last digit is actually 1/10th of a lot (a 'mini' lot) what this means is that is your entry price is say 1.50000 this is actually 1.5000.0 so to achieve a move of 1 whole pip the price will have to move up to 1.50010 which is actually 1.5001.0 If it went to 1.50015 (which is actually 1.5001.5) then the price would have moved 1.5 pips from the entry of 1.50000 (which actually is 1.5000.0). I know this sounds confusing but it really is not, it just means the extra digit on the end of price is actually a 1/10th of a whole pip.. this allows you to trade in mini lots easier also. Brokers started to do this as it meant they were able to offer more competitive spreads/commission as they could offer a spread/commission of say 2.9 pips instead of 3 pips as 2.9 sounds much more generous!!
For those members who wish to receive and follow our personal System 3 'Intraday' trades the email and SMS formats will look as follows:
-
We are personally placing the following
System 3 Intraday
BUY (Entry): 1.49129
Stop Loss: 1.48254
Target: 1.49833
Expiry time: NO expiry time. Notification will be sent if the above 'pending order' needs to be cancelled before it enters.
You should always trade with a demo account until you feel emotionally ready with your personal trading to trade with real funds.

... and the same example trade sent as an SMS should look like this on your mobile phone/cell phone:
-
We are personally placing the following
System 3 Intraday
BUY:1.49129
SL:1.48254
T:1.49833

As it says in the email example, if we are personally cancelling this System 3 pending order before it becomes active, we will notify you via email/SMS that we are personally doing so. So you can observe our personal trades via your computer or just via your phone should you so wish. Please see the Q & A for how you can personally trade via your mobile/cell phone for your convenience.
So you see you have all the details of the trades we are personally making including our entry point, where we are placing our Stop Loss (exit) and our target point. All these figures take into account the brokers spread, so no additional calculation is needed on that part at all. After a couple of days you will understand our trades in very little time at all, and if you are an experienced trader already you will understand our emails/SMS's in no time at all.
That covers all the basics, as we said, we really just want to provide a service that is simple in set up. We look forward to a long and happy relationship with our existing and new members and hope they wish to develop their own personal trading knowledge to become independent for the long term future.
