I would like to "double down" on Marcus' comment. I opened a trend trader account almost 2weeks ago. The first few trades were short term and ITM. Then...the software started placing long term trades, some of them REALLY long, like all day. with only one exception, they bombed. To date this software has placed 8 winners and seven losers and my account is vanishing. To add to the frustration I cannot get any kind of response from the support people. I have sent countless e mails along with my # and I have never heard a thing back. I too would like to curtail the long term trades since that is where the damage is happening. The manual trade signals are useless too. Since the software obviously factors in "time" as part of it's algo, meaning that is part of the signal, you would think that the signals would include this detail in the signal...but it doesn't. My guess is that in another week my account will be dead and I'll be searching for something else like virtnext or google trader. I cannot speak positively about trend trader and I am confused. How is it other people are having such luck and I am not when in theory, we're all getting the same trades????
