Optimize Trading Tactics To Make Them More Effective

Published on: November 19, 2016

At the end of this post is a recording of the webinar John Slazas presented on 14th November.

Every trader has certain trading tactics they have acquired over the years that provide the basis of the method they use to trade the market. Although the applied approach may resonate and bring a high level of trust, the success ratio without a standardized Trade Plan and normalized Trade Strategy will undoubtedly lack consistency and not be sustainable. Applying Trade Tactics within the construct of a normalized Trade Strategy improves its effectiveness and can be optimized when executed within defined market structure and by incorporating dynamic order flow events.

John demonstrated the process of creating a systematic approach to trading and how trade tactics can be optimized by using Jigsaw’s JSServices integration:

• How standardizing a trading approach can make it more sustainable
• How using Jigsaw’s JSServices integration to normalize a trade strategy improves consistency
• How macro structure metrics and orderflow dynamics can optimize trade tactics effectiveness

Attendees gained insight into the steps needed to create a more systematic approach to trading and offered a free trial of a comprehensive set of analytics and applications that support that process. The video is at the end of this blog post.

The Trade Plan is standardized by conforming it to JSServices Analytics which unify the approach across all markets and asset classes.

Personality Profile
Personality Assessment – Traders take a standardize personality profile, which when evaluated in an assessment creates the basis for developing a Trade Plan that leverages strengths and minimizes weaknesses.
Trade Plan Profile – Traders complete a profile worksheet which provides awareness to highlight the parts of a personality that will affect decision making then aligns these parts with core strengths to create a Trade Plan Profile
