Mega-Trades

MEGA-TRADES is a remarkable commodity futures trading methodology that took over 31 years to develop, the last two years of which involved running two high-speed computers 24/7 - literally over 35,000 hours of computer time to finally create a mathematical method of analyzing, measuring and trading price cycles.

I've believed ever since I began my full-time profession of analyzing the commodity futures markets back in January, 1976, that cycles were the key to understanding and trading these markets.

However, every attempt I made over the intervening decades was unsuccessful in being able to mathematically interpret these cycles in such a way that they were able to be traded profitable - until MEGA-TRADES, until I discovered how to do it "by hand".

Experienced traders sometimes prefer to utilize Profit Factor data from which to construct their own custom portfolio. While in some cases the relationship between PROFIT FACTORS and the PROFITABILITY RANKING shown in an earlier table is quite close, in other instances there is quite a difference. If you prefer to trade based upon PROFIT FACTORS, the following table will help you in your choices:

AND, YOU KNOW WHICH COMMODITIES TO TRADE BASED UPON THE SIZE OF YOUR ACCOUNT:

For most traders, the best approach is to trade our RECOMMENDED ACCOUNT SIZE PORTFOLIOS, which are shown in the table below. This takes the guesswork out of trying to decide which signals to take and at what point you add additional commodities. If you're trading with a smaller account, then either trading just the Eurodollar or that plus Hogs is the best way to go. As your account grows in size, then other commodities can be added according to the table:

HYPOTHETICAL OR SIMULATED PERFORMANCE RESULTS HAVE MANY LIMITATIONS, SOME OF WHICH ARE DESCRIBED BELOW. NO REPRESENTATION IS BEING MADE THAT ANY ACCOUNT WILL OR IS LIKELY TO ACHIEVE PROFITS OR LOSSES SIMILAR TO THOSE SHOWN. IN FACT, THERE ARE FREQUENTLY SHARP DIFFERENCES BETWEEN HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND THE ACTUAL RESULTS SUBSEQUENTLY ACHIEVED BY ANY PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM. ONE OF THE LIMITATIONS OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS IS THAT THEY ARE GENERALLY PREPARED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. IN ADDITION, HYPOTHETICAL TRADING DOES NOT INVOLVE FINANCIAL RISK, AND NO HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RECORD CAN COMPLETELY ACCOUNT FOR THE IMPACT OF FINANCIAL RISK IN ACTUAL TRADING. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND LOSSES OR TO ADHERE TO A PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM IN SPITE OF TRADING LOSSES ARE MATERIAL POINTS WHICH CAN ALSO ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER FACTORS RELATED TO THE MARKETS IN GENERAL OR TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ANY SPECIFIC TRADING PROGRAM WHICH CANNOT BE FULLY ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE PREPARATION OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS, ALL OF WHICH CAN ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS.
