This seminar is designed to help traders develop a trading plan, gain a proper understanding of the pitfalls most traders encounter - and how to avoid them - and apply this knowledge to intraday trading setups. John Carter will share specific set-ups that have led to his success as an individual trader and CTA. During this presentation, traders will learn:

· How to develop a trading plan that best fits your personality.
· How to trade without the painful learning curve that other traders suffer too often—and learn how to take advantage of other trader’s mistakes.
· Specific strategies for traders who are holding down a full time job.
· How to use volatility to get the best entries—and how to use volatility to exit the play.
· Specific setups for the CBOT mini-sized Dow.

Although this webinar is geared towards intermediate to advanced traders, John specifically singles out strategies that beginning traders can grasp easily and start using the next trading day. Sponsored by Interactive Brokers.
