Trading with PS3 and Helpers
Lesson 1
How to trade with PS3 and the Helper
PS3 trading is very fundamental. PS3 plots signals when a bar forms as a doji (small bodied bar that is hesitating or reversing direction) and meets the momentum and Floor Trader Number criteria defined by your settings.
Trade by taking signal that agree with the overall market direction.
The time to enter a trade is when the signals are moving in the direction they point. Go short when a new red signal forms below the last red signal and long when a new green signal forms above the last green signal.
