Automatic coffee makers
Automatic soap dispensers

In trading, automation is what allows you to become ultra-efficient, find your best opportunities, scale up with more trades, control risk with less emotion, and become more consistent.

As a trader, you already take advantage of automation in today’s markets.

These are just simple luxuries we enjoy today. But there is so much more available to help your trading. Do you want to learn how?

There are several levels of automation. You can automate filtering for your discretionary trading — or automate a full black-box trading machine.

Either way, the first step is to know the language of systems.

To get you started, we have a free series of videos and articles called “The Seven Steps to Systems Success”

In this series you’ll learn what we believe are the 7 most basic and critical components of a trading system. And we have even put them in the order we believe is most important to focus on.
