Pro Trader Darren Reed – Trading as a Business, 14th August 4:30PM EST

Published on: August 01, 2018

We are happy to announce that Jigsaw is sponsoring a webinar over at Futures.io titled “The Business of Trading”. In the webinar, Professional Trader, Darren Reed of Cygnet Trading will discuss a number of often overlooked aspects of trading. It’s on 14th August at 4:30PM EST. Click here to register for the webinar.

Traders spend too much of their time on the one thing that doesn’t really matter. The market.

And very little to NO time on the things that actually make a difference. Everyone worries about stochastics and machine learning and ichimokiCloudBurstHangingBaby candlesticks. Blah, blah, blah. All nonsense.

Yet no one looks at, “Is my prop firm/broker ripping me off?”, “Am I trading a product that I can actually have success in?” or “Where are the weak spots in my game and how do I fix them”.

– Cost Minimization
– Structured Risk Management
– Lifestyle Management
– What your Business Actually Looks Like
– Business Plan to Ensure Consistency & Scale Your Business
– Environment
– Disaster Recovery Procedures

This will be a fantastic webinar, so be sure to click here to register.

Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones’ financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

The following is a mandatory disclaimer for SIM Trading results:

HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS HAVE MANY INHERENT LIMITATIONS, SOME OF WHICH ARE DESCRIBED BELOW. NO REPRESENTATION IS BEING MADE THAT ANY ACCOUNT WILL OR IS LIKELY TO ACHIEVE PROFITS OR LOSSES SIMILAR TO THOSE SHOWN; IN FACT, THERE ARE FREQUENTLY SHARP DIFFERENCES BETWEEN HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND THE ACTUAL RESULTS SUBSEQUENTLY ACHIEVED BY ANY PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM. ONE OF THE LIMITATIONS OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS IS THAT THEY ARE GENERALLY PREPARED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. IN ADDITION, HYPOTHETICAL TRADING DOES NOT INVOLVE FINANCIAL RISK, AND NO HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RECORD CAN COMPLETELY ACCOUNT FOR THE IMPACT OF FINANCIAL RISK OF ACTUAL TRADING. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND LOSSES OR TO ADHERE TO A PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM IN SPITE OF TRADING LOSSES ARE MATERIAL POINTS WHICH CAN ALSO ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER FACTORS RELATED TO THE MARKETS IN GENERAL OR TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ANY SPECIFIC TRADING PROGRAM WHICH CANNOT BE FULLY ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE PREPARATION OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND ALL WHICH CAN ADVERSELY AFFECT TRADING RESULTS.
