| Mr.
Bauman works a full-time job and has little time to devote
to trading. He appreciates OmniTrader's automatic features
and ease of use. As he says, "Time is money, and
my time is valuable."
What
do you trade?
Commodity
futures and options on futures for now. When I found
commodity futures and options trading, I fell in love.
This stuff was made for me. I decided early on that
if I was going to trade with professionals, I had to
have the tools of the professionals.
How
does OmniTrader help you in your daily trading?
While
I have my favorite commodities and contract months to
trade, OmniTrader alerts me to trading opportunities
in other commodities, and even other months in my favorite
commodities.
How
easy is OmniTrader to use?
When
I received the OmniTrader demo, I was hooked immediately.
Unlike other demos, the program lived up to my expectations.
Exactly
how do you use the program?
I
use OmniTrader for both signal generation to confirm
my findings and to generate signals to alert me to possible
trades on other commodities I do not have the time to
follow. I look forward to future releases of OmniTrader
to work on intermediate options on futures. Once my
account is built up sufficiently to diversify, I also
look forward to using OmniTrader on longer term trading
in other markets.
What
is your trading style?
I
use the short term aggressive trading model as I do
not have the size account to ride out the up and down
moves of a futures market. However to be short term
aggressive, you have only a short time to be aggressive:
You miss the move, you miss the profit. Again, time
is money.
How
well have you done with the program?
I
think instead of how I have done using OmniTrader, the
question should be how much more I could have done if
I paid attention to strong advisor signals contrary
to market sentiment. Some of the best moves came when
OmniTrader signaled "go" and the experts said
"no". One instance earlier this year was in
a deferred month in one of my favorite commodities.
It would have been nice to pocket an additional $2,000
plus in four days. My kind of hit and run trading.....but
in this case it was "you snooze, you lose."
Would
you recommend this program to a friend? Why?
While
I'm the first to complain about a bad product, I also
go out of my way to commend a great product. This presents
a paradox. While I'd love to and do recommend it, just
how many do I recommend it to and still look like a
genius in my trading picks?
