In
order to improve your potential with HOST, you must do the following:
• Read, learn and study the accompanying HOST directions
contained in
this file.
• Use good sense when following trades from HOST. Do this
by using confirming indicators, trend indicators, and timing
methods.
• Manage risk and limit risk. If the potential loss from
a trade, given its percentage stop loss as shown on the HOST
trade rules is too high given its current price, then pass on
the trade or use an option or an options strategy.
• Be sure you are sufficiently capitalized to take
the trades that interest you. Being undercapitalized will
often result in losses you might not otherwise have to suffer
since you may not have the margin to stay with a trade to
its conclusion.
• Trade a balanced portfolio. No one can follow all
the seasonal trades. Instead of attempting to trade too many
times, focus on an unduplicated, uncorrelated portfolio of
markets that will spread your risk. Diversification is one
of the cardinal rules to successful trading! And,
• Above all, have the discipline to play your own game.
Don't jump out of winning trades too quickly by reacting to
news or to advice and information superfluous to your trades.
These rules, when combined with an understanding of how
to use this program will benefit you greatly in the short
run as well as in the long run. Remember that profitable trading
requires several important inputs, only ONE of which is an
effective trading methodology. <FAQ>
