Describe Chronos Trader?

Chronos Trader has significant experience trading stocks and options by combining advanced resonance and energy techniques with solid technical analysis (indicators based on volume, timing, momentum, etc) and harmonic pattern setups.


Describe the services available for subscribers?

We provide services + Resonant Stocks and Resonant Options + that give high-quality stock and option trade setups: both long and short high-probability plays. We provide research points for self-directed traders regarding entries, profit targets, and exit points with detailed charts and commentary. Using the research points and standard trade management has proven very effective overall for subscribers.

Do remember, we are not an investment advisory service or registered financial advisory agent. The key is all of our selections can be used to inform your choice in stocks and options as you feel appropriate. Use our price action and forecast as a potential guide in alignment with your usual trading methods, instruments and risk tolerance. While we do indicate when and why we are closing positions, as always, final decisions are always up to you and are your responsibility as an individual trader.

*As a rule we do not issue instant buy or sell alerts. Our emails delineate the trade candidates with entry and exit price targets and stops. We email updates as the trades progress detailing our current thinking process and moving of any targets or stops. We also send emails when we make a decision to conclude our trade at a particular profit or stop level. But regardless, it is always up to the individual subscriber to manage his or her own trades until the natural conclusion of trade completion based on their individual risk tolerance, capital, method, etc. (managing stops up or down based on the initial research points until stops are hit, trailing behind last few bars until stops are hit, taking full gains at the researched profit target levels, etc). All subscribers agree to Terms of Service and Disclaimer viewable on this site upon subscription commencement.*

Some subscribers trade nearly every researched symbol, some pick and choose a small number over several weeks based on his or her personal criteria.  All of our selections are typically well known and actively traded companies on major exchanges. This is not a penny stock trading or penny stock service. You will find lucid and to-the-point writing. Please note there are no free trials.


What number of setups are in the Resonant Stocks and Resonant Options services?

It is dependent on the particular week but typically you'll see at least 1 or 2 shorter-term stock trades a week. Long-term stock positions will be added to our Resonant Model Stock Portfolio. With our Resonant Options service, we will research many, many symbols but ultimately only send trade setups as they arise, usually at least 1 or 2 a week. We will keep a maximum of 4-5 option positions open. We will then wait to send any more until 1 or more of the previous option positions are closed.

Note: Resonant Options is best for more advanced traders who have the ability to quickly move on trades. This doesn't mean one has to react in 30 seconds. It simply means one needs to be familiar with setting up alerts and keeping an eye on prices to maximize results. Some trades are sent out intraday that can be moved upon quickly, while others are sent on a weekend or after a weekday close, looking for a specific price level and/or time to enter. 

You will see some trades that resonate more strongly with you and match up with how you like to trade. Go with those and manage them. Focus on the quality of your trades. We don't provide a huge amount of setups, but rather, a select set that should respond well during the following few trading days or weeks. We typically like to present short-term trades (excluding our Resonant Stocks Model Portfolio) that can be closed within a couple of trading weeks so that capital can be reallocated and not tied up in specific symbols long-term.


How do the resonant energy setups work?

The point of these trades is that all are backed by either confirming resonant direction or energy that is not getting in the way. We are sifting through tons of setups to find ones that are good technically and resonantly.
 
In our view, technical chart analysis, successful process with risk control, and a trader's makeup remains the cornerstone of good trading. Strictly operating in a vacuum with resonant energy works, but it doesn't maximize results. Energy is a part of our decision process, but not exclusive to every choice. The energy setups are always in our consideration, if not overtly written about in each stock.

Our goal is to effectively synthesize and apply such tools. These tools include typical and atypical Gann studies, astrophysical studies, harmonics and energetics indicators, as well as proprietary energy information and research. Trading should ultimately be simple and in a flow. No one gets bonus points for complexity. We trade by what the charts tell us, not on our assumed expectations.

The energy studies are analogous to the man behind the curtain or the puppeteer above the marionette. This is part of what drives trader psychology, it is part of what fuels price growth. This is why it is exciting. It's not a little blip exploiting some market inefficiency for a small space of time. It is a core part of the natural world.


I don't understand the energy information, can I still use these stock setups?

Absolutely! Our setups utilize solid trading techniques and good use of technical tools that are the foundation of good trading. That is plenty to have an advantage when trading. You can clearly read the research points and charts in each newsletter.

You don't have to, nor are expected to, understand the resonant energy techniques to use the material. If you do, that's wonderful too. But regardless, the point is that subscribers see a simple strategy. We are using our knowledge as extra layers of information to support the stock trading setups.

There are plenty of people that know some forms of technical analysis. But to sift through lots of symbols to find the right indicators, solid analysis and resonant tools to use at the right time, that takes much more patience and work. Lots of people know how to make scrambled eggs or pasta or grill some burgers. But they still go to restaurants they enjoy to get these things, because it saves them time, the chef may have a particular preparing skill that they like, and they get that for which they were looking.


I don't believe in these energy studies?

That's fine. We didn't either some years ago. You'll still obtain an advantage reviewing the full technical analysis and chart pattern setups that we discuss. Simple tools and indicators have their place. But if everyone is watching the same old indicators to place trades, how are you going to get any big edge? Only in using advanced methods in combination with solid technical analysis allows a trader to maximize their edge in entries and exits.

Think of it this way. A tree is growing happily based on certain conditions. And then suddenly, there is a loss of sunlight for weeks, and then a drought begins for weeks after that. Well, this tree is going to be stunted in growth. Its branches would probably start to decay in different ways. Conversely, if a tree was struggling a bit, and then got an infusion of perfect nutrients, new soil and better watering, then you'd expect an increase in growth at a certain time.

It's a simple example but it illustrates the idea. Our advantage is knowing in advance when these energy shifts will take place. With our research, we can be more aware of 'when the sunlight stops' or 'when the watering begins.' Stocks respond to energetic shifts in much the same way. If price conditions are met at particular times, the odds becomes extremely favorable that price will thusly respond in a predictable fashion. This gives us an resonant energy overview to conduct additional analysis.


What are your results and record?

The goal of the Resonant Stocks and Resonant Options services is to give you a select set of tradable candidates that fit our technical and energetic criteria. It’s not a simple task to do this. We’ve done all the hard work of filtering down huge lists and further research into a comfortable set for your review.

We cannot know your particular trading style. A stock that moves may result in some people taking 20 ticks, others a dollar, some half off at a certain level and riding the rest, others moving their stops immediately to lock a profit. You get the picture. And then you can give someone an exact forecast of what a stock will do. And it does exactly that, yet he or she will get very little out of it, because of their psychology, temperament and so on.

The ideal trade is for price to reach our profit targets as clearly spelled out in the services and close the trade there. We always manage the trade appropriately. In many cases, the options are up a good amount (20-50%+) before the price target is reached. As a self-directed trader, you are perfectly free to close your positions at any time based on your personal goals and strategies. This is why performance numbers are not the best guide.

We are not perfect. We don't claim to have all the answers. You will see that we perform well. A positive monthly return that can be compounded is very good. Building in that manner over time is fruitful. But naturally among all those selections, there’s a number that are imperfect. Such is it like in trading and life.


Will you have a real-time stock alert service and chat room? What about futures, gold, forex and oil?

We do trade many of these markets intraday on a regular basis. A live membership chat room with real-time alerts using our technical and resonant methods is being considered. We've gotten feedback that this is of interest to a lot of people. You may contact us if you are interested in this kind of service as well.

For now, we want subscribers to focus on the trade candidates. This is the core of our service and has done very well thus far. We could certainly provide commentary and instant alerts via messaging and in a great chat room setting, and have no doubt this would be a successful endeavor. But we don't believe it's ideal right now for subscribers to be buying and selling blindly (some traders are 'action junkies' and that's not usually a good thing) without reviewing charts and getting a feel for the stock rhythms. Focusing on a few weekly candidates with solid gains is plenty to bring success.
