    What will be covered:

    Discretionary vs. system trading - which is best for you?

    Additional indicators for discretionary trading - specifically designed for those who wish to create their own customized automated trading system.

    Market Direction - an additional tool for daily trend determination

    Real Time Target - A self adaptive profit target tool with 75% accuracy in setting a profitable target for long or short positions.

    Reversal - Gives a "heads - up" signal to upcoming identification of minor trend exhaustion

    Cluster- Probably my most accurate trend exhaustion / turning point application

    Entry Point- a valuable support / resistance tool used in combination with Cluster and Real Time Target

    Volatility Stop - a self - adaptive indicator used primarily for high probability exit placement.

    Creating automated systems from these indicators.

    First, using your favorite market / time frame, select an indicator set that fits your trading style.
    With a couple clicks of the mouse you can create an automated trading system from your selected indicator array that fits your personal trading style.
    Using Selective Optimization to fine tune your newly created system.

    The Automatic Directional Day Filter and the associated Directional Day Filter System - an automated routine that determines the major trend for the day and enters trades only in the direction of that major trend.

    The Universal Trading System - a behind the scenes tutorial
    How does it work?
    Which parameters are used to generate trading signals?
    Market Selection
    Time Frame Selection
    Initial Setup
    Selective Optimization
    Maintenance of the System - when is it necessary to re-adjust / optimize trading parameters?
    Dealing with slippage

    And finally...

    A look into the future of automated trading- a trader's eye view of automated parallel function systematic trading.

    Trading systems with fixed parameters often are not able to keep up with changing market conditions without constant attention.

    Highly curve fitted systems can get into trouble as by their very nature they have the expectation of future data mirroring recent markets.

    Ideally an automated system should draw upon multiple, simultaneously applied system approaches to increase the profitability of the overall strategy.

    Wouldn't it be interesting to watch multiple system settings simultaneously?

    And use the best current system?

    Wouldn't it be interesting to create an automatic routine in a trading system to make these switches to the best settings?

    And use the best current system?

    In conclusion...

    How many trading seminars have you attended?

    How many of the presenters you listened to are willing to share their personal trading statements with you?

    ( I'll show you mine if you show me yours ..... ;-) )

    I began trading a real time account at the TTM LA seminar that takes only automated trades from the Universal System. I will share the February results at the end of the seminar on March 8.

    Real time % returns in double digits.....
