Skill Builder

The problem

1. Are you tired of spending countless hours looking through your chart history to verify that your trading idea will work?
2. Do you load up a chart with your favorite indicators and then scroll for hours looking for when you would have placed a trade based on your signal?
3. Are you tired of trying to do the math to figure out how that trade would have turned out?
4. Wouldn't it be nice to have a way to manually place trades while running through that history in your strategy tester?
5. Wouldn't it be nice to simply load your template in the tester and then, when your signal occurs, hit a button to buy or sell?
6. Can you imagine how much time and effort this would save you by being able to trade a year's history in a matter of minutes

The solution

If you are really serious about learning to build your skills as a trader, there is no substitute for practicing your craft. You MUST spend time in front of the computer learning to recognize trading opportunities. You must be willing to build your skills as a trader. However, now there is as way to massively reduce the time it takes for you to hone your skills as a trader.

The skill builder trade simulator!

Skill Builder is a trading simulator that is meant to be used in the strategy tester only. It creates a trade simulation interface on the chart allowing users to practice trading in the tester as if they were on a live chart. If desired, the user can create their own templates containing their favorite set of indicators and save the template as tester.tpl so that when they start the tester, it will be ready with their favorite indicators. Then they will be able to build their trading skills by trading what they see as if it is a live chart.

With the trade interface you are able to:

1. Place Buy, Sell, Buy Limit, Sell Limit, Buy Stop and Sell Stop orders.
2. Close the trade fully or partially.
3. You have the option of using three types of trailing stops. Regular, Candle and Moving Average as well as an automatic move to break even.
4. Move stops to 'Lock In' pips with the click of a button.
5. Reverse your position with a single click.
6. You can enter the new lot size or other trading parameters directly on the screen as the tester runs.
7. Once in a trade, the stop loss and take profit can be moved in any direction with the click of a mouse.
8. Last but not least, an important feature is the ability to control the speed of the tester. This allows you to study the chart and then decide on your trades. It gives you time to watch for emerging patterns while closely monitoring the condition of your indicators. Once in the trade, you can increase the speed and see how the trade goes.

Here are some of the default parameters available (default values are in parentheses):

• Lot size (0.1)
• Take Profit amount in points (500)
• Stop Loss amount in points (500)
