Hello everyone this is Floyd Upperman!  I hope everyone is having a successful October 2011 thus far!

Listen/watch my October 4th 2011 Evening update to members  !!

 

The last 4 out of 5 daily forward plunger formations (FP) in the S&P500 (ES Mini) have been very successful!  The most recent FP in the S&P occurred on October 4th 2011.  I discussed this in my evening report of October 4th 2011.  In fact, here is my evening report from 10/4/11 In this report I asked myself this question -
"The last 3 FP's have been very successful in the stock market,  do I believe this FP (10/4) will succeed as well? And my answer... "Yes, you bet!" !  I have a great deal of confidence in our plungers due to their track records!  Nothing is 100% and no indicator is always right, but our plungers have a remarkable track record in all the markets we track and trade!  The things I look for in an indicator is consistency and continuity.

Take a look at the ES here in the chart yourself and you be the judge! 

The FP's are part of our automated pattern recognition program. The blue carrots on the lower x-axes of our daily trend/swing price graphs show ALL daily FP and RP activity for the past 161 trading days! The red carrots highlight the reverse (RP) plunger activity and the blue carrots highlight the forward plunger activity! 

The plungers are unique indicators and are not based on only one day of data!  They are based on the last 10 days, and form once specific criteria has been satisfied! 

* Feel free to review our plunger's in more detail (review our plunger manual free)!

"The best way to predict your future is to create it!"
By Floyd Upperman

NO TRADING SYSTEM CAN GUARANTEE PROFITS
HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RESULTS CAN BE UNRELIABLE
FUTURES CONTRACTS ARE VOLATILE AND RISKY

Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not been actually executed, the results may have under-or-over compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated 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 those shown anywhere on this website.

Futures trading involves risk and may not be suitable for all types of investors. Trading is a very risky business, and people do lose money trading futures contracts and options on futures. There are NO implied guarantees or promises of success made on this web site anywhere.   No trade is risk free and trading is not Floyd's only source of income! 

Floyd makes no guarantees for success. Past performance is not a guarantee of future profits or future success. The markets are volatile and constantly changing. To survive in this business, you must learn to respect risk and learn to contain it! We do this using specific rules and methods for handling risk. First however risk must be recognized and acknowledged!  All types of futures trading is risky!  No trade is risk free and trading is not Floyd's only means of income!
