Learning to Trade with BT

Our personal and friendly group, makes learning to trade fun.  We provide you with an ongoing learning environment, so you can learn to successfully trade the markets of your choice.

Our live market coaching is focussed on day trading futures in the London FTSE and Australian SPI markets, but if you would prefer to only trade once a week, our weekly CFD and Shares report can guide you.

BT takes you beyond just learning to trade, with our comprehensive education program.  We take you beyond the books and into the live markets and provide you with ongoing further education and support, providing you with the best opportunities to learn how to make money from trading the markets of your choice.

You will learn how to:

A. Day Trade Futures:  We provide daily live market coaching for futures trading.  We teach you how to day trade futures in the London FTSE100 Stock Index Futures market, and other markets, including the Australian SPI200 Stock Index market.  We teach you trade for 1.5 hours, using charts and a number of technical indicators that form to produce the BT Indicators.  The BT Indicators Green Go Lines and Coded Arrows will cross and display when a number of the technical indicators all meet the criteria for a trade opportunity.  You will learn how to take short trades (opportunity to make money when the market value is going down) and take long trades (opportunity to make money when the market value is going up).  Our goal at BT is to earn 20 ticks in this market.  One tick = GBP 5 or approximately AU$10 depending on the currency value at the time of trading.  You are taught to set your own trading goals, however if you decided to set a trading goal of 20 ticks per 1.5 hour trading session in the London FTSE futures market and you traded for 1.5 hours 5 days per week, your weekly additional cash flow goal would be approximately AU$1,000 per week.  Trading is classified as high risk and trading Futures is not for everyone.  Just as you could make money if the trade moves in your favour, you could lose money if the trade moves in the opposite direction of your trade.  We teach you to trade with sound money management rules and stop losses, however, you should discuss whether trading futures is for you with a financial adviser before you decide to trade and you should read the PDS.

B. Day Trade CFDs:  We teach you how to day trade CFDs (Contracts for Difference) in the Stock Indices.  CFDs are lower leverage than Futures, however they can still provide you with great leverage, when trading the Stock Indices or individual stocks.  For example one CFD point movement in the FTSE100 Stock Index market = GBP1, compared to GBP10, if you were trading with a futures contract. You trade Long or Short with CFDs in the Stock Indices.  You cannot trade CFDs over all Stock Indices or all individual stocks but there are many Indices and Stocks available, where you can.  Day trading with CFDs in the Stock Indices can be good alternative to trading futures and a lower risk trading contract than futures, however, trading is classified as high risk and trading CFDs is not for everyone.   Just as you could make money if the trade moves in your favour, you could lose just as much money if the trade moves in the opposite direction of your trade.  We teach you to trade with sound money management rules and stop losses, however, you should discuss whether trading futures is for you with a financial adviser before you decide to trade and you should read the PDS.

C. Trade CFDs or Shares over longer time frame:  If day trading is not for you and you only want to trade at the end of the day, weekly or monthly, then trading CFDs or Shares could provide a great additional income, without having to trade live, in the market on a daily basis.  At the end of every week BT scans selected Australian Stocks and identifies where the BT Indicators may have identifed a trade opportunity.   We email you a CFD and Share report listing the Stocks where the opportunities have been identified, providing you with the opportunity to make a trading decision.  You can trade CFDs over these stocks or trade Shares, depending on your leverage requirements and risk profile.  These trade opportunities can be held until you reach your trading goal or until the indicators alert you to a possible price reversal.  Typically, you could these trades for a couple of days, weeks or months, depending on your goals.  Trading shares is consider lower risk than trading CFDs, however all trading is high risk and is not for everyone.  You should discuss whether trading futures is for you with a financial adviser before you decide to trade and you should read the PDS.

D. Trade the Foreign Exchange (Forex) market: This market is consider the largest market in the World.  We provide you with education on how the forex market works and the most popular currency pairs which are actively traded, world-wide.  This market is predominantly a day trading market and is classified as high risk.  You can trade full or mini contracts in this market, for example, where a full contract = US$10 per pip, a mini contract = US$1 per pip movement.  You can trade long or short in this market, thus you have the opportunity to make money in a rising or falling market.  The forex marke, similar to the futures index market, provides 24 hour, 5 days per week, trading opportunities with around-the-globe markets. Trading is classified as high risk and Forex trading is not for everyone.  Just as you could make money if the trade moves in your favour, you could lose money if the trade moves in the opposite direction of your trade.  We teach you to trade with sound money management rules and stop losses, however, you should discuss whether trading futures is for you with a financial adviser before you decide to trade and you should read the PDS.
