About this strategy

I am a professional futures trader who scalps S&P 500 futures the first 60-90 minutes the market is open. A point, maybe two, and I am out. One trade preferable.

Follow free for five days, then $200/month. Recommend linking your trading account; if you try to trade on your own following my positions, you will be putting on trades too late.

Don't email me; I won't answer. Results speak for themselves.

Trading futures is risky and not for everyone. While we believe our system works well, no system is perfect and you may incur a loss.
Regards,

Thomas A. Hawk

Past results are not necessarily indicative of future results.

These results are based on simulated or hypothetical performance results that have certain inherent limitations. Unlike the results shown in an actual performance record, these results do not represent actual trading. Also, because these trades have not actually been executed, these results may have under-or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated or hypothetical trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to these being shown.
