3 support groups
Who does what?
Correct Trading Jargon
Helps communicate clearly
Up to speed with VXCharts
Trade like a winner

(Important stuff will be repeated)

The big picture

1. Trader (You)

Decide & Trade

Decide = Strategies + Charts
Trade = Buy/Sell through Broker
Charts are created from data

How are we related?

4. Broker

3. VXCharts

2. Concept Of Price

What is VXCharts?

An application that gives you

a picture of the market in realtime

What is VXCharts?

Perform calculations to convert

Data (numbers) into charts...

How?

..while ensuring the Data is timely

Lagmeter

Do not trade when yellow or red

Shorter is better, color changes as it grows longer

Timely Data?

Empty = No lag, Green = 1-3 seconds
Yellow = 4-6 seconds, Red = > 6 seconds

Shows amount of delay in Data

Is VXCharts easy?

Windows (~~2000/XP/Vista/7/~~8/8.1/10)

Intel i5 or better

Authorized broker account for data & Internet access to receive it

What does it need?

Yes! And it is also specially customized for

Concept Of Price

Brokers?

Zaner (partnering OEC^)

Infinity (partnering TransAct^)

Interactive Brokers

... many others

^ White label brokers, similar to travel insurance from airlines

Must have a broker?

Liaison between you and market (other traders)
Provide Broker App(s)
Provide Live Account
Gives you Data for charts
May provide Demo account
Cannot use 8 character passwords for Live accounts

(Fund your Live account before Demo account expires)

Yes. Why?

2 types of Data

Test - Data from the past

Live - Current real time data

2 types of Trade

Test - Virtual money, not real

Live - Real hard earned cash

Broker gives you Data to Trade

Quiz:

Can you Live trade Test data?

The difference is like a recorded vs live soccer match.

And you only need 1 type of data at a time, not both.

Ans:

No, you can't. Doing so is like placing a bet now for last night's soccer match. No one is going to accept your bet.

MagicES - Charts	✔	✘	✔	✘	✘
PlayES - Charts	✘	✔	✔	✘	✘
Playback - Ladder	✘	✘	✘	✘	✔

Which Data to use?

PlayES - TEST Data from VXCharts, Playback

MagicES - LIVE Data from broker

Modes in Broker App	LIVE Data	TEST Data	LIVE/TEST Charts	LIVE Trade	TEST Trade
Demo	✔	✘	✘	✘	✔
Sim. Live	✔	✘	✘	✘	✔
Live	✔	✘	✘	✔	✘

What the broker app provides

Sim. Live - same as Demo, but no expiry

LIVE Data - all accounts provide LIVE data

Modes in Broker App	LIVE Data	TEST Data	LIVE/TEST Charts	LIVE Trade	TEST Trade
Demo	✔	✘	✘	✘	✔
Live	✔	✘	✘	✔	✘

What the broker app provides

LIVE Data - all accounts provide LIVE data

Takeaway

All accounts (DEMO/Sim. Live/LIVE) provide LIVE data
VXCharts does not provide any account
DEMO account expires after 30 days
LIVE account must be funded
LIVE account initially has no LIVE data (Contact broker)
Data is NOT FREE
- LIVE data included with DEMO account for 30 days
- TEST data included with VXCharts
- LIVE account provides LIVE data for Monthly fee

You need Data to Trade

What do I need to trade?

In short, 3 things...

Remember the big picture?

2. Charts
(from VXCharts)

1. Demo/funded Live account
(from your broker, not VXCharts)

3. Strategies
(from COP)

Anything else?

Wifi/Mesh/3G/4G internet is unreliable for trading

(Charts will lag or stop growing)

Infinity: MyRepublic & SingTel

If you work in the financial sector, brokers require declaration when opening an account

(No account means no Live data)
