Trading IQ game concepts and FAQ

Tips on how to play for greater profits

 

Trading IQ game is 100% FREE  with $1000 first prize

 

 

 

Technical analysis studies only PRICE.  Its the the only thing sure to be real. 

The Technical trading IQ game will teach you the art of technical analysis in its purest form. You may find you have a gift that you were not aware of. Using this trading game will help you learn to trade if you are a beginner, improve your skills if you have some experience and if you are one of the best you can use your talent to win prizes.

There are two basic methods of analysing markets for trading.

  1. Fundamental analysis

  2. Technical analysis

Fundamental analysis is the study of company reports and accounts, using economic data and broker reports to select buying or selling points. The problem with this approach is that the timing is generally arbitrary as it depends when the trader reads the reports or accounts as to when he places a trade. Another trader may view the same "great accounts" a month later and buy for the same reason at double to price! Clearly this approach is flawed.

Technical analysis involves the use of charts to choose buy and sell points, and the purpose of the Technical trading game is to practice this science in order to improve your skills. The purest technicians use 100% technical analysis and do not even read the news from the individual companies or crop reports or economic data etc.

Frequently the market will sell off on good news or rise on bad news which can lead to deepening confusion. Companies often issue statements which are worded in such a way as to be incomprehensible to the reader, this is often to hide the real facts. Accounting fraud and massaged profit estimates are commonplace.

  • Learn how to place your stop loss a safe distance away from "the noise" of the market. The best place to put it would be somewhere where you believe the trend has really changed direction. This avoids over trading and changing your mind too often, which can lead to trader error.

  • Learn how much capital to risk depending on these factors

  1. Your level of expertise

  2. You confidence in the current trade

  3. The volatility of the market

  4. The distance of your stop loss from the price.

  5. The clarity of the trend ( not noisy price action )

  • Expert traders know the importance of risk control.

  • Pick you spots carefully.

  • The Market price action over the different games will vary dramatically. If the price action does not appeal to you then wait for favourable movement before placing a trade.

  • Understand what you can control and what you cant.

  1. You are in control of your stop loss positioning

  2. You are in control of how much equity percent you risk

  3. You are not in control of the market price.

  4. No matter how much you shout at the screen the price will goes its own way.

  • Find your own style

  1. Trading is often a very personal process and we all have our preferences.

  2. Keep practising to find your style which suits your personality and generates high profit.

  • Trade what you see, not what you think or feel.

  • If you don't bet you cant win, if you lose all your money you cant bet!

  • Practice for fun a few times until you learn how to use the game

Trading IQ game FAQ

Is this game really free to open an account and play as much as I like?

 

Trading IQ game is 100% FREE  with great prizes from Precision Trading Systems, NinjaTrader and MultiCharts

 

 

Why does my trading IQ rating mean in actual profit and loss terms?

A rating above 1000 means you are in profit, below 1000 means you have been losing.

Expert traders can attain and IQ of  2,000+ however the average trader who will most likely lose regularly will have an IQ of 800-900.  

See IQ definitions above

 

Are there any penalties to the Trading IQ rating if I play the competition games slowly?

No, this game rewards success, and one aspect of success is patience and determination. If you play slowly you will be making less mistakes. The Trading IQ rating is not penalised for playing slow. Any speed = same IQ score. The speed adjustment is just to help people feel comfortable to play at their own pace.

 

Can the trading game be paused if I need to answer the phone?

 

No, this game attempts to be as real as possible. You would not be able to pause the London stock exchange either.  You might consider the following. Either close out your trade, adjust your stop loss, or if you are anything like me you will not answer the phone when you are trading.

 

If I messed up in the World Trading IQ Championship am I allowed to re enter with a new ID.

Yes you can enter as many times as you like. But to win the $1000 first prize your email address used for creating the account must match the pay-pay account where the prize is sent.

Persistence is rewarded in actual trading, therefore this is replicated in the trading game. You can keep trying until you are the best in the world.

 

Why does my trading rating have a (P) in front of it?

You have to complete at least 15 practice games in order to get a valid Trading IQ rating. (P) is for Provisional and may be inaccurate until the full 15 games are played.

 

 
Why did my Trading IQ drop from 1311 to 0 when playing in the weekly competition?

If you lost all your equity, you will be rated zero in the competitions just as a fund manager would lose all credibility if he wiped out his account. The competitions are designed to be realistic. The generosity of practice mode is different because the equity resets to 10,000 after each game.

 

Why did the price fall to zero during a game? My trading rating has now collapsed.

Shareholders of Enron also lost a 100% of their capital when it went bust as did investors in Bernie Madoff.

It happens sometimes and you need to be aware of this. If you risked 100% of your account on one trade and did not place a stop loss then you will eventually get wiped out once sooner or later. Its realism, and you learned this lesson very cheaply compared to some..

 

Are there any age barriers to entering the World champion trader game? I have a very talented 14 year old son who wants to enter.

Anyone can enter the world championship contest. Ages 3 to 130 years old.

Yes he can play, but if you want him to win the prizes you can help him sign up using the email address of you the parent or guardian.

If he wins the World championship you can ask him to call me when he leaves school, maybe I can give him a job

 

Why doesn't my stop loss order get filled at the exact price?

Very often the stop loss order does not get filled at the exact price in real trading either, this is a factor known as slippage and is an important part of trading. The Trading IQ game is designed to be as realistic to actual trading as possible.

 

What happens to my IQ rating if I get disconnected during the competition games?

Your IQ will be computed as if you lost 75% of your equity, this is done to prevent people who are losing heavily from exiting the game and not losing points. Also, it teaches one to be responsible, as walking away from an open trade is rather dangerous in reality.

 

Trading IQ game objectives

 

The objective is the same as in real trading and that is to make large profits and hold on the equity you have generated. One has to avoid large losses and learn how to manage risk and place stops.

Beginners can learn to trade in a very true to life environment with total privacy to enjoy the thrills of winning and suffer the pains of losing. They can assess their potential to make it into real trading without risking a single penny. If you can maintain a Trading IQ > 1000 in the game you have demonstrated an ability to win. This is the first step to going into the real stock market. If you consistently score below 1000, then you know you need to change something about your style in order to win, and all this can be done with no financial risk to you.

Intermediate users can hone their skills and work out new ideas here in the games as a relaxing bit of fun or a mathematical experiment, its as simple or as complex as you wish to make it. Anyone of any age of intelligence can benefit from the challenges the game has to offer.

Expert traders can make their mark in the competitions and have their name up in lights on the winners pages. The competitions will not be easy to win even for the very best traders so if you manage to be the best of the week you can certainly have a sense of pride from achieving this.

Elite traders. These are going to be the people in page 1 of the World championship league and I am very interested to see how their performances compare to my own. Whoever manages to take the crown for the World Champion Trading IQ game will surely be a star trader. Will it be you?
