General Trading Methodology

Gil also trades longer term with Equity Options and has attended many commodity Futures and Option trading courses. Gil uses the DTI method of Tom Busby as a foundation to his methods but incorporates parts of other trading professionals including Linda Bradford Raschke, Jim Brown (Option Investor), Austin Passamonti and Todd Brown of Wisetrader.com. Gils trading method incorporates Support and Resistance levels and Channel breakouts while watching Advance Decline lines and $TICK, $TRIN and DTI TTICK with Roadmap along with Filtered Time and Sales Data. 

Gil uses multiple time frames watching 30, 13 and 3 Min Charts with Multiple Moving Averages to show move strength and intensity. Entry anticipation and exit strategies are based on a custom combination of RSI, MACD and 3 bar reversal Patterns.

Gil believes there is no Best Method of Trading except the one that you develop yourself based on education and experience.
