Online Finance Academy - Yield Curve / Spread Trading StrategiesOnline Finance Academy – Yield Curve / Spread Trading Strategies

Description:

Ask any established professional trader what trading style can provide the longest, most consistently profitable career and they will likely tell you it is in spreading. This is particularly true nowadays as momentum style day trading becomes increasingly dominated by high frequency trading algorithms. Spreading is a style of trading where one does not require expensive news feeds or the fastest connections to exchanges. It is a form of trading that allows one to manage their trades more passively. As a result, the stress factors that often cause day traders to lose money are less present with spreading.

Spread trading involves making a wager on the change in price between two similar futures or options contracts, rather than betting on outright price direction. This style of trading tends to have far more reliable patterns of ebb and flow and requires far less margin. This means traders should find it easier to follow a risk management strategy, and trade larger with less risk.

This course will focus on futures in the US treasury market, which is the most active bond market in the world. What you learn in this course can be applied to other markets as well, including: European, British, Canadian and Japanese treasury markets, as well as grain futures and stock index futures. You will learn specific strategies for trading intra-market spreads as well as the macro-fundamental knowledge required to make well-reasoned trading decisions. A knowledge of reading charts or using technical indicators is unnecessary. Instead, you will learn how to read a spread matrix, execute a trade on a popular platform and understand why and when to exit a trade.

Taught by a career spreader with over 40 years in the business as a trader and trainer, this course will give you a solid foundation to building your career as a trader.
