Welcome to Breakout Futures Breakout Futures
offers trading systems for the futures markets. To be profitable in the
futures markets, you need an "edge," a trading method that gives you an
inherent advantage over the markets. A mechanical trading system is the
best way to get that edge. With a trading system you can:
- Back test the system to evaluate its performance over a wide
variety of market conditions.
- Paper trade the system in real time to get a feel for how it
works and how to trade it before putting real money at risk.
- Trade based on objective trading signals without emotional bias.
- Automate the order placement and execution to reduce errors and
eliminate the fear of "pulling the trigger".
Among professional money managers who trade the futures markets,
known as Commodity Trading Advisors or CTAs, those who trade with mechanical
trading systems outnumber so-called discretionary traders by a ratio of
six to one (source: SafeMoneyMetrics Stark Managed
Futures Indexes). In 2008, systematic traders tracked by the
Barclay CTA index returned more than 18% on average (source:
www.barclayhedge.com). The pros use trading systems because they work.
