HTM Quick Guide

1. Main Entry Rules(C.A.R.E)
-
Consolidation (wait) - after a big price movement, wait for the end of a consolidation:
- a triangle pattern.
- price flatness.
- low volume.
(This is the only period that traders’ discretions are needed. Once you decide that it is a good time to trade, the entry points and stop management are almost 100% controlled by the software program.)

-
Agreement (ready)
- TS/T2 agreement. Click here for illustration (Help)
-
TS indicates the beginning of a trend. The color of the bar(part of TS) indicates a current price moving direction(blue is up, red is down and green is neutral).

-
T2 indicates the direction forecast as well as the key supports and resistances(cyan/light blue dots are up, magenta/pink dots are down).

-
Retracement (set)- Prices retrace back to agreed T2 to lower the risks.
-
Entry (go) - trade at the "small-size colored bar near agreed T2". Optimal entry points. You will see a HTM popup window with sound alert. Please note that the alert
will mention HTM.
2. Stop/Exit Rules
- Use T2 as initial stop
- Use T2 as trailing stops in a trend movement.
-
Tighten the stops by using eASTrend13(only available in eASCTrend 6.0, part of TS -- use Info window to see the values) during a re-test of a recent high (for up trend) or low (for down trend). Use ASCTrend3 for indicator package users in this case.

-
Use major support/resistant levels (using S/R distribution tables from longer interval charts) at potential entry or exit target area.

3. Trading tips for more experienced traders 4. Trading Strategy 5. Testimonial
I have been using ASCTrend since April 2003 trading e-mini S&P and making money. eASCTrend training CD is especially helpful. The time I spent on studying the training CD is well worth the effort, it provides excellent modeling to take emotion (fear and greed) out of a trade, improves discipline in adhering to trading rules, and allows me to pick up the winning trades consistently. - E.M.

Note: The eASCTrendSig (TSig) has been removed in the latest HTM rules in order to keep the HTM rules simple. You can just treat TSig as a bonus indicator that is used as an extra confirmation of your trades.
