Infinity Questions and answers
Q: After the 30 day trial, can I request another trial in case I am not ready to trade live yet?
A: No, we cannot extend the trials. However, if you open and fund the account with a minimum of $2500, we can turn on a simulated account that you can continue to practice with.
Q: I know the simulator does not function ideally with wireless connections; can I run the live account on a wireless connection?
A: It is possible to run the platform wirelessly in a live environment. However, expect to have more frequent disconnections and other related issues. At this point, the available wireless technology is simply not strong enough to handle the amount of data we are sending.

Step 8
Start Simulation Trading (paper trading) for a recommended minimum of 50 trades
What is Simulation Trading?
Simulation is where you use a Trading Platform to trade live markets without using real money. This is called paper trading. Everything is happening in real time. Only the money is fictitious!
Why is Simulation a Must?
Paper trading is a MUST. It gives you time to learn the power of our trading methods and the Infinity ATplatform without having to risk your capital. This practise will ensure that when it comes time for you to trade with hard cash, you'll be ready and confident, with a sound and tested understanding of the 21st Century Trading System.
While paper trading, it is essential to keep a records a diary, spreadsheet or simple list of the trades you take. This paper record will assist you to learn from your mistakes and help you develop your own trading style, plan, trading goals and profitable trading habits.
We strongly recommend that you paper trade for at least 50 trades. At the end of this time, if you are consistently profitable, you are now ready to start trading with hard money.

Commit to the 50 trade Program
This exercise teaches the required skill set needed to become a successful trader. Complete this exercise in simulation only.
Trade Entry
These signals are called and marked with plenty of time to place your orders to either buy or sell at a specific price. Once the signal is called, place your buy or sell order accordingly as a limit order at the price. If the signal gets cancelled, remove your limit order and wait for the next signal.
Stop Loss
1 pt(ES) .8(TF) from entry, this is the optimum point at which the possibility of the trade working is diminished.
Profit Targets
Taking profit when the market makes it available is critical to your success.
Multi exit
ES (S+P 500)
1 contract at 1/ 1/2pts points (6 ticks)
1 contract at 2 ½ points (10 ticks)
or as moderator instructs
TF (Russell 2000)
1 contract at 1/ 1/2pts points (15 ticks)
1 contract at 2 ½ points (25 ticks)
or as moderator instructs
Maximum Drawdown for any day is 4pts. If you hit this drawdown, stop trading until the next day.
Executing the exercise.
The rules are simple, trade the system exactly how they have been designed without deviating at all. This system sounds easy but it’s not. If you have ever traded before, it will come into direct conflict with your desire to trade objectively and come into conflict with your beliefs about the market.
