Conceptforex's EFS Activation Required
There is code in the efs that only allows it to operate on your machine, under your own eSignal username.
That is why we need your username to provision the efs to function (allow 24 hrs please).
If you forgot your username, then with eSignal up and running, go to:
File > Preferences > Connection tab
You will then see your username
Click here to send username if you have not already done so.

Chart Symbols and Suggested Intervals
Futures
Russell Symbol: TF #F
Chart intervals:
Russell Scalper: Best used at the open, go for 10 ticks and quit
Electra: 380T or 3-5 min
Russell All Day: Use all session, until just before the close, as you don't want to be filled when session ends
Mechanic: 380T or 5 min
Primo: 380T or 5 minForex
There are 3 possible Forex symbols for the $EUR/USD. Gain and FXCM are Forex brokers and the specific use of their datafeed, provides a smoother chart (fewer out of the way spikes).
EURUSD Symbols: EUR A0-FX, EUR@GAIN A0-FX, EUR@FXCM A0-FX
Chart intervals for the Forex EUR (feel free to change/experiment):
EUR Scalpers EUR Slicer 380T, 5 minEUR Slicer Adv 380T, 5 minEUR Long Term EUR Blackhawk 15- 30EUR Eagle 15- 30EUR Midas EUR Fractal
Note: These are meant to funtion 24/7, beginning with the open on Sunday ( or a few hours after ) and continuing until Friday morning. You should never take Friday PM trades, UNLESS, you are willing to hold a position over the weekend.
Conservative traders may wish to also avoid trading the slow afternoons, from about noon to 4 PM PST, and also begin with the evening opening of London, instead of right from the gun on Sunday afternoon. Trading on FOMC and Non-Farm Payroll days is aggressive!
Strategy Chart Labels
When you insert a Conceptforex strategy efs into the chart, it is automatically functioning. You will only need to turn on/off the autotrade function, if you are using our Ninja Interface Module.
In the upper left of the chart you will find labels (vary a little between strategies):
- Software Name/Version
- Last bar close price of the currency - Autotrade: On/Off
- Last entry signal, price, time
- Trend Status: Long, Short, Flat
- Trade Status: Suggesting trail a stop or exit due to trend change/indicator changes
NOTE: If you do not see these labels, then you have the symbol or interval wrong

Scaling the Chart
If you find that prices are 'scrunched together' either up and down or right to left, then, put the cursor in the outside column of the chart window ( on the right or below the chart ), hold the mouse button down and slide the cursor, up and down ( for vertical scale changes ) or left and right ( for horizontal scale changes ).
Remember!
Day trading generally is not appropriate for someone of limited resources, limited investment or low risk tolerance. You should be prepared to lose all of the funds that you use for day trading. In particular, you should not fund day-trading activities with retirement savings, student loans, second mortgages, emergency funds, funds set aside for purposes such as education or home ownership, or funds required to meet your living expenses.
There will be losing trades. No trading software, methodology, system is 100%. By using software that gives you more wins than losses at the correct trading times, and, by managing your trades properly, you should come out ahead. The free trial period is when you decide for yourself if this system/method is for you. Conceptforex make no guarantees of any kind.
