FAQ

Q: Who is SixFigureTrader.com?
A:SixFigureTrader is a company founded by professional trader Brian Heyliger. We started the company with one goal in mind: helping traders build a consistent six-figure income through trading. To find out more, please visit the About Us page

Q: How can you help me become a better trader?
A:While there’s no substitute for hard work, a general zeal for trading, and adapting a plan that fits your personality, the products and services we provide will help you generate income as a trader. But more important than income is that you’ll learn how to think (and act) like a successful trader on your own. This gives you the option of continuing to stay on as a subscriber (because you know you’ll continue making money with us) or confidently setting off on your own.

Q: What kind of products do you offer?
A: At this time we have two trading newsletters – Market Trigger Alert and Night Trigger Alert. Both focus on helping trading generate an income from trading while they learn the various aspects of trading.

We also offer Autopilot, which is a managed account service where we execute trades on your account in accordance with Market Trigger Alert day trading signals.

There are more products in development, so please get onto our mailing list to ensure you don’t miss any important notices. Signing up for our free e-course is the easiest way to do this.

Q: Realistically, how long will it take me to become a six-figure trader?
A: It really depends on your experience and personality, but from start to finish it will likely require at least one full year of full-time trading to become proficient enough to generate a six-figure income in the futures market.

Q: How much money can I make as a six-figure trader?
A: It depends on how much money you’re working with, but as a day trader a 60% annual return is achievable. Market Trigger Alert is currently generating more than that (as is Night Trigger Alert) but your results will vary depending on your skill at following directions and executing trades.

Q: How much money do I need to get started as a six-figure trader?
A: You can start with as little as $5,000 in the futures market. It is easier (and faster) to generate a larger income with a $25,000 account, but $5,000 is the minimum you should have on hand.

Q: Do you have a trial period for your newsletters?
A: Yes, but only for our flagship product – Market Trigger Alert. For this newsletter we offer a 30-day trial period for $5. To learn more about Market Trigger Alert click here… If you have never been a subscriber and would like to start on a trial basis, please send us an email: customerservice@sixfiguretrader.com.

Q: What’s the best way for a beginner to learn about the e-mini market?
A: Traders at every level should start first with my FREE 7-Day E-Course. You’ll learn more about the craft of trading in this e-course than most paid e-courses will teach you. You can signup for our free e-course here…

Q: Which broker do you recommend?
A: Selecting the right broker is very important. We’ve assembled a list of brokers we’d be happy to put our own money with, and that list is available here for you to decide which best fits your trading style here…

Q: What trading platform do you use?
A: There are many out there, most of which are very good. But our preference is to use NinjaTrader. The great thing about NinjaTrader is you can “try before you buy.” We’re not aware of better place to start with trading software than with NinjaTrader. To download a FREE demo of NinjaTrader click here

We also use Strategy Runner for certain types of trading as well.

Q: Would you recommend your program if I can only trade one contract?
A: Yes, you can make money trading my system with as little as one contract. The key to being successful at trading a small account is consistency and money management (not trading too big of a size.) A proficient trader can make $500/day trading only one contract.

You can then add to your position as your account grows.

Q: What is your Autopilot (Automated Trading) Program?
A: The Autopilot program is where professional trader Brian Heyliger will trade your account for you. We started this program so that people could participate in day trading at a whole new level. With Autopilot, Brian Heyligerr will day trade your personal brokerage account for you. Click here to find out more

Q: Do you post your track record?
A: Yes, you’ll find the track record for each product posted on their respective pages: Market Trigger Alert and Night Trigger Alert.

Q: What markets do you focus on?
A: The S&P 500 and the 30 year Treasury Bond (also known as the Long Bond).

Q: Do you trade stocks and options?
A: No, we focus on the futures market as it offers the best risk:reward ratio for our own capital. On occasion we’ll make other recommendations when opportunities present themselves, but we’re futures market specialists. It’s much better to be an expert in one area (and make good money at it) than try to be a jack of all trades and make nothing.

Having said that, learning to trade well in one market will usually carry over to other markets. Once you have the winning psychology and discipline, it’s just a matter of mechanics to trade stocks and options rather than futures.

Q: Is the autopilot program based upon day trading or swing trading?
A: Day trading only, as per the recommendations made in Market Trigger Alert.

Q: On the autopilot program, how many contracts are traded?
A: As many as you wish. The minimum account size is $5,000 for this service.

Q: Do you actually trade the signals you recommend in your services?
A: Yes, unlike most other companies out there, we take every single every trading recommendation in my own personal trading account.

Q: Do you use any indicators like MACD, RSI, etc?
A: No we don’t. Not because they don’t work, because they do work for some traders. But the idea of using these indicators does not appeal to me (Brian Heyliger) because they’re not leading — but rather lagging — indicators. Really the only indicator we’ve found to be useful the is the NYSE TICK.

Q: What is a NYSE TICK?
A: The NYSE TICK is simply the real time net number of stocks trading up or down on the New York Stock Exchange.

Q: Where can I get the NYSE TICK indicator?
A: You can get access to the NYSE from many different data vendors. However, we’ve found the data feed provided by Trade Station to be useful. So if you have a Trade Station account you can look up the NYSE TICK under symbol $TICK.

There is another way to get TICK: at the request of many of our traders, we provide real-time access to this data feed for $14.99 per month. If you would like access to this service please email us here: customerservice@sixfiguretrader.com.

Q: Do you have a live trading room?
A: Not at this time. But we will consider adding one if we feel it provides real value for our subscribers.

I’ve put together a new indicator I’d like to pass along to my traders.

How To Make Six-Figures in a Month

I’m making a prediction… and it is this – The S&P 500 Futures will close at or above 1235 before year end… It’s not often that I make predictions like this. In fact, when anyone makes a ‘prediction’ my guard goes up. It’s just my skeptical nature. So I reserve my predictions for the times [...]
