George V - emini futures trading system

All copies are sold out. This system is now available only to the owners of KING.

George V is an objective mechanical e-mini futures trading system which trades YM, the Dow Jones Industrial emini futures contract. 

You can probably apply it successfully to the ES market too, as both markets exhibit similar intraday patterns, and the best way to do it is by taking entry and exit signals from YM. Keep in mind, though, that the system has not been formally examined for the ES market, so no results in this case are available.

George V is meant mainly for my KING clients. These clients will also receive a sizable discount on it. If they buy this system within a week of their purchase of KING, they will pay only $75 for it. Later, they will be eligible to buy it for $150. Those who have bought George IV are also eligible to buy this system at a discount, $100 in this case, but this offer is good for a limited time only. You can only take advantage of it in the first quarter of 2010. 

Only very limited quantities of the system will be distributed outside of this group of people: 10 copies to be more precise.

The system uses a relatively small initial stop-loss of 12 YM points. Its target is 10 points greater than the stop-loss in question. The system has not only a good risk-reward ratio, but also a very decent winning rate, making it a very good system all around. The stop-loss and the target parameters are the only parameters of the system that could be said to be optimized, so the system is hardly over-optimized.

By design, it takes only one trade a day, and the trade must be initiated in the first hour of the daily session. This makes it easier for me to test it and it is likely to appeal to those who prefer to or can trade only in the morning, the US time. In East or South East Asia, where quite a few of KING customers live, it is in the evening, which should suit the Asian traders just fine too. I am also hoping that perhaps even some Aussies and Kiwis will become interested in it because of that, especially those who have yet to find a good way to kill their insomnia. Or the truly committed night persons. I am one of such animals. I often don't go to bed until 2 AM. 

I am working on another system that by design will also trade during the first hour of daily session only, so George V is by no means some freak of nature. However, the system can pinpoint good trading opportunities outside of the first 60 minutes of the daily session, too. 

This is a trend following system. It enters when a strong trend is identified during the first hour of daily session. It is a fully objective trading system, so no discretion is required. It is easy to use. 

One can also employ this system to generate additional trades. For instance, when you were stopped out of your position. There are two additional strategies that come with the system proper that can be used in such circumstances. They are meant to be discretionary, but can be treated in a very mechanical way as well, as explained in the system manual. One of these strategies is a continuation strategy, the other is a reversal strategy. They can be very powerful in their own right and it is recommended that you target 25 points with the latter and 15/35 points with the former, with at least 2 contracts in the second case.

The results (in YM) for the past few months (in ticks) are as follows:

September 200976 with 5 trades,

October 2009:     32 with 3 trades,

November 2009: 101 with 9 trades,

December 2009: -44 with 10 trades,

January 2010:     55 with 8 trades,

February 2010:    38 with 6 trades,

March 2010:        6   with 1 trade (as of 3/09/10).

As you see from the results and the stop-loss and target parameters, the system is unlikely to suffer big monthly losses, while the monthly profits seem to be more likely. Last December was a very congested month, so it is not very surprising that we recorded a loss.

The results assume that if the target of 22 ticks is not exceeded by at least 2 ticks, the profit of 22 ticks is not recorded, instead some lower profit is; I am no big fan of creative accounting. Not only is the system objective (no hindsight "performance" here), but it has been tested in a way that makes its performance more realistic. The entries are executed with market orders at the close of a 1 minute bar. 

Here is a summary of what this system does for you:

1. it identifies a strong trend in the market that can be profitably exploited,

2. it tells you exactly when to open your position in the market,

3. it tells you how to take your profits.

A 1 minute chart with popular indicators that every decent charting package should be able to provide is all you need for trading this system. I recommend Sierra Chart for it and a Sierra Chart template for the system is included in the system package. Quotetracker should be able to handle it too. Tradestation, Amibroker or Ensign are expected to be fine as well, especially if you are not afraid to do a little programming work. 

NinjaTrader with the custom designed NinjaTrader indicators for KING will do too, but I am working on a NinjaTrader template for George V that would not require the custom designed KING indicators.

The system package includes the system manual (in PDF), an Excel spreadsheet with trade results, a Sierra Chart template, and a folder with screenshots of Sierra Chart charts for the trades in January 2010 plus some other screenshots to explain how the system and its extra strategies work. Altogether, there are 21 screenshots illustrating all the trades the manual discusses.

The system manual contains the following sections: Introduction, System Description, Extra Strategies, Additional Remarks. The manual is nearly 7 pages long, only one and a half page is devoted to the description of the system proper, while about three pages are devoted to the description of two extra strategies.

Because of the extra strategies the system can be of interest not only to those who prefer YM (or ES), but also to those trading other markets as these strategies should do well in other markets too, or to those who prefer discretionary trading.

All upgrades, including perhaps even more strategies, will be free of charge, and in 2010 you can expect quarterly updates with results. 

Here is, once more, what the whole package contains:

1. the system manual,

2. the trade spreadsheet,

3. several pictures showing the system in action,

4. two extra strategies,

5. the Sierra Chart chart template to be used with the system,

6. the right to my email support,

7. the right to free upgrades.

I think that the fair price of the system, even without its great extra strategies, is at least $150, and I am pretty conservative in my estimate. However, since buying this system will give you a glimpse into KING, a powerful and more expensive emini trading methodology, your price is bound to be higher. George V is based on KING's ideas and uses a subset of KING's indicators. And it is also for this reason that its purchase is not refundable. This has to do with the fact the purchase of KING is not refundable either.

Here is again, in a nutshell, how neat this system is:

1. not over-optimized,

2. uses only few and very basic indicators,

3. trades only several times a month,

4. generates at most one trade a day,

5. easy to manage.

And the price?

The price is only $375 for the next 10 copies. All copies are gone now. Additional copies are available only to the owners of KING

However, if you are one of George IV customers, you have earned yourself a $100 discount. Please send me $275 via Paypal and you will receive your copy of George V promptly. See the order page for my Paypal address. Please mention when you ordered your copy of George IV so that I can verify it. 

As mentioned earlier, more copies will only be available to those who bought KING or George IV. I do believe that buying KING is the best of all possible deals, in part also because this will give you deep discounts on other mechanical systems that I will be releasing in future, most of which will be based on KING ideas and will use the indicators KING employs.

But there is more... 

If you decide to buy KING within a week of buying George V, you will get it for $550 only if its regular price is still $850 or for $650 if its price is $950. That means a $300 discount off of KING's retail value. If you decide to buy it later, buying George V will give you a $200 discount for KING. The latter discount is good only in the first half of 2010, though.

Any questions? Please let me know. Put "George V" in the subject of your message.

You can order this product here. You will be able to download it right after you paid via Paypal, even if it's 3 A.M.
