Deadzone Distractions

CLICK HERE:  Talk with someone at PureTick LIVE in CHAT!


As a general rule, we do not like to place low probability trades during the lunchtime doldrums, or "dead zone", which occurs between 11:45 A.M. EST and 1:45 P.M. EST.  The exceptions would be near perfect trading setups where there is some uncharacteristically high volume ("sneaky lunchtime buying" right near the beginning of dead zone, for example).  We recognize that some of our clients want to be alerted when all signals fire. If we are in the trading room and a trade fires we will call it. But those trades will not be part of our official track record. Here are a few ideas, and fun distractions that will keep you from getting bored and possibly over trading during the lunchtime doldrums. We normally will take a break during this time frame.

We have created a special DEADZONE ONLY Trades track record at room member request. If you click the following link and compare this track record to our normal non-deadzone track record, you will see why we avoid trading in the deadzone period:
