Basic Agreements for Users of ClearEdge™ Software

Agreement #1 : You will not trade a live funded account during the learning process period. It has been shown those who attempt to trade a live funded account during the learning process greatly diminish their ability to make progress and will likely deepen or develop risk aversion thus creating inconsistent results.

Agreement #2 : That you will abide by the record keeping, and chart markup guidelines for tracking your trading progress using the ClearEdge™ B20™ TradesBank worksheets during the learning process.

Agreement #3 : You will trade (simulation trading only) one market during the educational period. For training we use the e-mini S&P 500, or the e-mini Russell 2000 Index futures contracts. Only one market can be used during the entire training period. Why Futures contracts? Because they offer the volatility necessary to create numerous viable training opportunities during the learning process. ClearEdge™ tools can be used effectively on most any market where there is sufficient volume, or open interest.

Agreement #4 : During the learning period, you must pro-actively request help if for any reason you do not understand something or need extra attention. If necessary, a private one-on-one coaching session may be scheduled to clear up misunderstood material.
