This page will
allow you to register for ATAP, but you
will also need to be accepted into the
program. This pre-registration process
is the first step. Make sure that you
provide accurate and efficient contact
information here as well. We probably
already have your most efficient contact
information on file, but just to be sure,
re-submit it here because this is what we
will use to contact you about ATAP.

We respect your privacy and NOTHING
shared with us on this form will
ever be shared with any third party
at any time. The purpose of
this form is ONLY to qualify you for
ATAP. |
Pre-Registration Form:
This may take a few
seconds. Only click once.
Affiliated
brokers:
Options Xpress is
our only affiliated broker. You can
operate ATAP if you have an account with them,
or we can set ATAP up to work with your broker.
This will be considered custom development, but
we will split our costs with you because we will
use your broker in the future too. Our
costs are $4000 to integrate ATAP with a new
broker. You will be charged $2000.
However, if you have a few associates who use
the same broker, you can split the costs.
Put together a team, and let us know who you
want integrated; then email
support@stocktradersdaily.com with your
request.
You will
need to have a non-qualified (not a
retirement account) account with one of our
affiliated brokers; your account should have
margin and a $30K cash balance to use ATAP.
We will not accept any other accounts.
No less, no more than $30K. Larger
accounts will be considered in the future,
but for now this is designed so everyone can
use it.
In addition,
this account will end every day in cash, and
we will trade it almost every day, so you
cannot trade the account while you are using
this program. This account should be
completely separate from any other account
that you trade. If you begin to trade
this account and engage in ATAP at the same
time we will be forced to remove you from
the program. Please contact us for
details about this:
support@stocktradersdaily.com
There is
only 1 major broker associated with our ATAP
Program at this time. This is Options
Express. Once this program gets up and
running for a few months we will actively
seek other brokers. However, at this
time, you will have to have an account at
Options Express in order to participate.
If you
already have an options express account that
has not been designated to the ATAP program
you will need to open a new account with the
link below; alternatively if you set you
account up for ATAP early, before this link
was provided, please contact us and we will
have your account coded for ATAP (that means
that Options Express will link your account
with the other accounts that have signed up.
For questions email
support@stocktradersdaily.com .
To open an
account with Options Express you will need
to click here:

It is your
responsibility to investigate the broker
that you choose. You must accept the
terms that they provide and you must accept
any and all rules and regulations that they
impose. It is up to you to make these
evaluations. We cannot make them for
you.
Example:
This is the
type of call that we will make for our ATAP
Program. Every day, all you have to do
is to accept it or decline it:
Buy KLAC on June 3rd between
53.45 and 53.5. Target
54.25. Set a stop loss at
53.20. If the stock tests
54.25 take profits. Also,
if the stock gets to 54 set a
trailing 0.10 trailing profit
stop at 53.9 and let that profit
stop ride until the target price
is reached or until it stops.
Be willing to repeat this trade
3 times on June 3rd. |
FAQ
(Frequently asked questions)
Although these FAQs
were designed for the ATAP Simulator, we use the exact same methods
to find the right stocks to trade in the
ATAP Program too, so until we revise
them for ATAP, they can be used to
explain how we are going to find stocks
to trade for ATAP. Take a look at
these simple FAQs to learn how we will
go about finding the right stocks to
trade (you can also use this same
procedure on your own):

The Tortoise vs the
Hare Strategy
Active trading strategies
allow you to make money in any market environment, and
control your risk at the same time. Unfortunately,
most people cannot engage in active trading strategies
because they have a job, personal responsibilities, or
simply because they are not familiar enough with the
practice to use the tools available to them.
However, active trading strategies are the best way to
approach the market; some people see that benefit and
wish they could take advantage of it.
If you are one of those
people, then the ATAP program from Stock Traders Daily
may be right for you.
We are working with the top
brokers in the industry to have our calls executed for
you while you are working, vacationing, or taking care
of other things. You just have to click OK once a
day, and the rest is done for you.
We have developed a
disciplined trading strategy, and it has proven very
effective. In 2006, for example, this strategy
annualized 36% on just $30K. Past results are no
guarantee of future results as you know, but we did this
while always in complete control of our risk, and with
NO OVERNIGHT
RISK.
We end every day in cash,
and start every day fresh, so there is no overnight risk
whatsoever.
Here's an example:
Buy KLAC on June 3rd between
53.45 and 53.5. Target
54.25. Set a stop loss at
53.20. If the stock tests
54.25 take profits. Also,
if the stock gets to 54 set a
trailing 0.10 trailing profit
stop at 53.9 and let that profit
stop ride until the target price
is reached or until it stops.
Be willing to repeat this trade
3 times on June 3rd. |

Risk control is our #1
priority; stop losses are integrated as you can see.
You can stop the program
at any time, but you need to be accepted into the
program in order to use it.
To be accepted 3 things
need to be accomplished:
- You need to have an
account with an affiliated broker
- You need to have
been a member of Stock Traders Daily for 30 days
- You need to be
accepted into the program.
This strategy is not for
everyone because we make money very slowly. We
don't hit home runs, and we don't make big bets, or
expose ourselves to high levels of risk.
Therefore, some people get impatient. Over time
this strategy works very well, but the Hare in the race
with the Tortoise sometimes looks like he may not win
the race.
If you like the
strategy, if you believe in active trading, if you can
be patient and let the strategy work for you, then maybe
the ATAP program is right for you.
