Trading Educators – Ambush & Stealth Trading Method
The Ambush Trading Method™ was launched in 2009. It’s proven itself in many different market conditions since then, not only in backtests, but also in forward-testing.
Ambush supports a variety of markets, including:
- Futures: Stock Index, Commodity, Currency, and Interest Rates
- Spot Forex Markets
- CFDs on any of the supported markets (results may vary, depending on your broker’s quotes)
Ambush is based on Daily charts, so there is no need to sit in front of a screen to watch all day. When the market you want to trade opens, you place your limit entry order and your protective stop, and you go on about your business. You will always close your position on the same day you entered the market. This means there’s no overnight risk, and depending on your broker, this can make a huge difference in relation to margin requirements.
What’s Included:
Enjoy the flexibility of trading during any market condition by combining the trading education of the Ambush and Stealth Trading Methods! These products follow completely different trading approaches:
Ambush Trading Method™ is a counter-trend method and Stealth Trader™ is a trend-trading method.
- Ambush Trading Method™ is fading the trend and stays in the market for only one day
- Stealth Trader™ catches the trend and holds on to the trade as long as possible.
- Both trading methods support many different trade markets, including commodity trading, so you’ll be diversified in markets and methods!
You no longer have to decide in what market conditions you are trading. Trade both methods at the same time, and let the trading methods do their job.
Understanding the Ambush Method
The idea of Ambush is actually quite simple. As markets became more and more difficult to trade on a breakout-basis using a daily chart, Marco started to look for a way to exploit that reality. The problem was how to get into a market when many traders are “trapped” in their trades, and how to profit when they lose. This sounds tough, but these are often some of the best trades you can get into.
In other words, you’ll “ambush” those traders who’re buying or selling when it’s statistically a very bad idea to do so, at least on a short-term basis. Odds are their trade will fail, and when it does they’ll have to quickly get out, or even reverse their trades, which will drive prices strongly into our direction.
This means Ambush is a counter-trend method on a short-term basis. It doesn’t necessarily go against the long-term trend of a market that has been trending for weeks, but it does go against trying to get into the market during short-term trends when the odds favor an intraday-reversal. Still it’s based on daily charts and you don’t need to watch the markets during the day, which makes it a quite unique method. It actually allows you to profit from significant short-term intraday-moves without being tied to the screen!
Simple Rules
Ambush is not a black-box system. Instead, we give you the complete trading rules which allow you to become really comfortable with the method.
- This method uses simple, clear rules. They tell you exactly:
- At what price to place your limit entry order.
- At what price to place your protective stop-loss.
- When to get out of a trade.
- The exit-rules used by Ambush are very simple. There’s no profit target involved, and the stop-loss is only a catastrophic stop-loss. This means that one of the biggest issues of method-development, which is overoptimizing the exits, doesn’t apply for Ambush.
- You will become a member of a private section where we post the latest set of market suggestions and specific parameters for fine-tuning the method to each market. The fine-tuning is done in a way that avoids over-optimizing the method, and targets robustness instead of performance. This gives us an additional edge in each of very different markets, while applying the same basic method.
- Since markets change, we continue to look 2-3 times each year for new markets to add to our list of suggested markets.
