Each symbol listed on every exchange in the world is unique. It has its own trading activity, volatility, and other characteristics. Ideally, each symbol should have its own unique trading system specifically fine-tuned for its individual nuances.

Before now, creating separate trading systems for all your stocks was a daunting task. In fact, creating just one single trading system could have taken days or even weeks to develop.

But with ICE 2.x, you can create and optimize your own trading systems with just a few mouse clicks – and NO formula writing or programming required!

Created by long-time Equis insider John Slauson

During his 12 year career with Equis, John's skills as a trading system developer flourished. He has helped industry gurus such as John Murphy, John Bollinger, and Steve Nison create their popular MetaStock plug-ins.

John has been coaching individual traders to develop their own customized trading systems. Through his successes with these students, John began to create a simple method that automates the process of trading system development.

The result is ICE – the best way to remove the heat of emotional trading and focus on the cold, hard facts of a reliable system.

As easy as 1-2-3

With ICE 2.5, you can create your own winning trading systems in just three easy steps:

• Find the best indicators. ICE categorizes all of MetaStock's built-in indicators to make it easy to find the four highest-ranked indicators from each category. These indicators are the foundation for your robust new trading system.
• Optimize those indicators for appropriate weighting. ICE and the new ICE System Wizard crunch the indicators you've selected and optimize them for your specific stock.
• Install the final ready-to-use trading system right in MetaStock. As the final step, the ICE System Wizard emails you a link that you simply click on to install the complete trading system. It's that easy!

Based on sound technical and trading principles

ICE 2.5 gives you decades worth of technical analysis research and rock-solid system development rules in a cutting-edge interface. It allows you to create powerful and reliable systems that are personalized to your own stocks and comfort levels.

The structured “recipe” approach offered by ICE gives you a definite trading advantage. All of the “ingredients” of your system are the absolute finest available, which means that it's almost impossible to develop a poor trading system with ICE 2.5.

Trading systems you can trust

When it comes to trading with a strict trading system, traders perform better when they have confidence in the system they use. And confidence in a trading system begins with understanding the components that make up the system.

When you use ICE, you'll have more confidence in your trading because you are the architect of your trading system. By following the simple step-by-step instructions, you'll know exactly how your system was created and why it's generating certain signals.

Exit signals based on sound trading principles

One of the most vital parts of your trading system is how to properly exit a trade.

It's fundamentally unsound to base your primary exit rules on the same indicator that got you into the trade. That's because the indicator in your trading system doesn't “know” your profit and loss situation for that trade.

We've built ICE on the concept that stop losses give you the most efficient way to manage exits. Our unique IntelliStop^TM technology dynamically calculates new stop levels each day to help you maximize your profits while protecting your capital.

Focus on the system, not the formulas

ICE is the first and only product that allows you to focus on the creative aspect of building a trading system for MetaStock – not the mathematical and technical aspects that bog most people down.

As a result, ICE shifts the emphasis of creating a trading system from the left side of the brain to the right side where it belongs. You won't have to deal with the drudgery of the left-brain requirements of building a robust trading system.

In the markets, timing is everything. Power Pivots Plus can help you pinpoint the best time to get in a trade… and out!

Get ready to discover a whole new, smarter way to view the complex marketplace...

The first of its kind, PowerPivots Plus (PP+) is a MetaStock plug-in that uses proprietary algorithms to evaluate the market's current trend and momentum, to help you identify, label and act upon those key pivotal support and resistance levels.

What are Pivots?

A pivot is a specific point - in terms of time and price - when a shift in balance has occurred between buyers and sellers. These market turning points typically represent where a change in trend has occurred, or is occurring. At the core of PowerPivots Plus is a proprietary algorithm that not only detects these pivots, but also evaluates their significance and strength.

What is Trend Direction?

Trend Direction is a unique study included in PowerPivots Plus, which identifies the direction of the trend - be it a minor, intermediate, major, or primary market trend. Just specify the pivot strength you want, and PowerPivots Plus highlights the price data according to whether the trend of the specified strength is up or down.

Choose the trading system that fits your trading style.

Whether you trade intraday or end-of-day... active or long term... full-time or part-time, PowerPivots Plus has the tools to fit your unique trading style.

Included are several different trading models, each with distinct trading characteristics. You'll find a description of each PowerPivot trading model in the users manual. Just choose the one with characteristics that best fit your trading style.

Then get ready to use MetaStocks power tools to back-test, filter, and examine the optimal conditions under which to trade...

The Enhanced System Tester helps you define your PowerPivots Plus "trading model" parameters, so you'll know what criteria and conditions give you optimal results.

The Explorer helps you find the securities that are currently (or on the verge of) generating either long or short entry signals under those conditions. Just input your trading scenario and let The Explorer go to work!

The Experts, Commentary, and Indicators included with PowerPivots Plus help you further analyze those possible trades to narrow them down to the most promising trading opportunities. The included seven indicators are an excellent way to reconfirm that your entry and exit signals are on target!

PowerPivots Plus offers MetaStock users the ability to perform multiple time-frame analysis.

Serious traders understand that in order to be successful, they must be able to quickly assess the longer-term market trends. PowerPivots Plus, with the innovation of Tfactors a formula included within PP+ and more, now makes it easy to analyze the same market across multiple time frames all on one chart! MetaStock users can also incorporate multiple time-frame analysis into System Tests, Explorations, and Experts.

Generate reliable trading signals with this ingenious trading system based on Steve Nison's favorite candlestick signals and market trends.

Leave it to noted trade expert Steve Nison to spearhead the creation of an innovative trading program that capitalizes on the fluctuating, yet highly predictable price movements of the markets. You'll receive:

• An Expert Advisor helps you determine whether the climate in the global stock market is bullish or bearish. That way, you'll have the benefit of knowing whether you should be bullish, bearish, or neutral.
• Depending on whether the overall market is bullish or bearish, use one of two explorations to screen for the strongest Buy or Short Trade candidates. These explorations (Bull and Bear) search for stocks showing any of their eight candlestick patterns. And based on Steve Nison's proprietary formula, the exploration report will also reveal which of those stocks show greatest evidence of movement in favor of a trade; whether it be up or down.
• NCU provides you with a Reward/Risk Ratio to decrease risk and protect your money. By using the limit price provided by the Expert Commentary to enter your trades, you are ensured of opening the trade with an acceptable Reward/Risk ratio, that being -- your potential for gain is 50% greater than your potential for loss.
• Monitoring your trade... NCU adapts to the stock's movement and recalculates the daily numbers to give you the most strategic exit signals. Nothing could be more dynamic or robust!

Now you can identify the most profitable chart patterns in seconds, based on John Murphy's many years of experience.

Hidden inside every chart is a story - a story about where the price has been and where it might go in the future. Some stories are obvious. Others are a little more difficult to figure out.

These stories are told with patterns. Chart patterns are simply defined as pictures or formations made by the price movements of the stocks or commodities you're examining. Numerous studies have repeatedly shown that these patterns have excellent predictive value. In fact, technical analysts who effectively identify these classic, tried-and-true chart patterns are among the most successful traders in the world.

Now you can take advantage of the experience and insight of John Murphy, one of the world's foremost financial analysts, to help take the subjective guesswork out of identifying these classic patterns.

Identifies both trend reversal and continuation patterns.

When analyzing chart patterns, technical analysts generally categorize them in two groups: (1) patterns that predict trend reversal and (2) patterns that predict trend continuation.

Most technical analysts consider the process of identifying patterns within the charts an art, and would hesitate to venture down the road of mathematically quantifying how to identify specific patterns. But with John Murphy's practical trading experience combined with the technical expertise of the engineers at Equis International, this incredible new tool rivals the best pattern recognition experts in the industry.

STEP 1: Find only the charts with good pattern trading potential

The old method of finding patterns within charts was tedious. You had no choice but to visually examine each chart - one at a time - to identify what might or might not be a pattern.

With CPR, you can examine hundreds (even thousands!) of charts with a click of your mouse. The advanced software algorithms then search through all of your charts to find the ones with definite patterns, and even the ones in the early stages of a pattern.

STEP 2: Begin to focus on specific chart patterns

With a detailed list of the best candidates, now you can begin analyzing individual charts with CPR and MetaStock's Expert Advisor. CPR will label each of the nine different patterns as they occur within your charts.

STEP 3: Use this valuable information to place your trades

CPR generates a report within MetaStock to give you valuable trading details for the particular pattern on your chart. You'll know exactly how to place your buy and sell positions, and even where to place your stops. In addition, the reports will give you price projections where the security price will move within a specified period of time. You can also use CPR to generate daily trading alerts with patterns that aren't fully formed. That way, you'll know when to place your trade, before it becomes obvious to other traders.

CPR is the right tool to help you profit from tested chart patterns

CPR goes beyond simply identifying the patterns on your chart. Each pattern is computer-verified and supplemented with John Murphy's own expert commentary. Simply click your mouse on the identified pattern to read the specific details on how he feels this pattern rates. Was the breakout from the pattern significant enough to warrant a trade? What is the likely price projection for this type of pattern? How long will it likely take to reach the projected price? You'll get all of this trading detail and more!

CPR automatically scans through your securities looking for specific patterns. It even finds those that are most likely to produce the best trading opportunities. There is no other product on the market that implements the experience and expertise of John Murphy with the computerized technology of MetaStock. The result is simple - you'll make better trading decisions!

Let John Bollinger's time-tested and reliable research help you "zero in" on the most profitable securities, based on Bollinger Bands.

Now you can benefit from the success of Bollinger Bands with this highly selective trading system—a system that selects only those few securities with the highest profit potential.

Using the time-tested technology of the Bollinger Bands, John Bollinger and the makers of MetaStock have created a new mechanical trading system—a system that's simple, yet robust enough to be reliable across all types of stocks, in all types of market environments. This system provides a high probability of reliable performance for the future, not just the past.

The Bollinger Band System (BBS) is unique. It has the ability to adapt to each security's recent activity. Unlike other systems that have a fixed set of parameters, BBS is designed to evolve with the market conditions, making it more reliable and more likely to produce profitable trades!

This adaptability is due in part to the indicators used to create BBS: %b, which compares price action to indicator action; the Money Flow Index indicator (MFI), which incorporates volume into its calculations; and the Bollinger Volatility Index (BVI), which provides a means of measuring the volatility of a security and comparing it with the volatility of other securities.

Trading bands and indicators by themselves can be effective tools, but when combined as we've done with BBS, the potential for trading success is greatly increased.

What are Bollinger Bands?

The Bollinger Bands are trading bands that focus on volatility. By allowing the movement of prices themselves to set the width of the bands, John Bollinger's Bollinger Bands are able to react quickly to market conditions.

But they only provide a framework, not absolute buy and sell signals. In the past, a trader would still have to devise a trading system that would produce optimum buy/sell signals based on these bands..until now.

The Bollinger Band System -- What does it do?

In short, The Bollinger Band System (BBS) searches thousands of securities to find those most likely to reverse their current trend - then, of that group, it singles out those few that meet a very selective set of criteria. This cycle is completed by your unique input, which results in stocks that consistently perform well and fit your personality and trading style.

Using the Bollinger Band System is as easy as 1-2-3!

Exclusive to The Bollinger Band System plug-in are two MetaStock explorations that find securities which are signaling buy or short conditions, and two MetaStock experts that give you detailed information on the status of open trades for a specific security.

1. Perform the two MetaStock explorations.

   First, you'll want at least 5,000 to 6,000 securities and 3 years of data to work from. Now run the Watchlist Maker on your data. The Watchlist Maker filters out low volume/price securities and those that have less than 500 periods of data. This select group of securities is your "Watchlist" from which you'll run the BBS exploration. You are now ready to run the BBS exploration. This exploration is at the heart of the Bollinger Band System. It finds those securities that have generated "buy long" and "buy short" signals. Now it's time to open these securities' charts.

2. Study the screened candidates and apply your own personal filter.

   This is the step where you can transform good returns using BBS into outstanding returns by applying your own personal analysis. This step is the only subjective part of the BBS trading method.

   Your BBS instruction manual will have many effective strategies to help you narrow your decision down to the best candidate.

3. Attach the two MetaStock experts to track your trades.

   At this point, you can confidently place an entry order with your broker. But BBS doesn't stop there. Once you've entered a long or short position, use the Expert Advisor to monitor your open trade. You'll attach either a Long or Short Track expert to your chart, depending upon the signal the exploration generated. The experts provide chart-specific feedback on the current status of your open long or short trades.

   When an exit signal for your trade is generated, an expert alert will pop up on your screen when you open the chart, and an exit arrow will appear on your chart. (A nice way to take the emotions out of your trading.) Finally, you can choose to view the expert commentary and read about the current condition of the open trade. Let the Bollinger Band System show you when to get in a trade, how long to let your profits run, and when to exit.

We invite you to make your trades with the Bollinger Band System for a full 30 days. If you don't find your trades more consistently successful than before, send it back to us for a full refund of the purchase price. No questions asked.

Our bet is that you'll keep it and use it to make more successful trades than ever before!

Start maximizing your trading power with the expertise of John Bollinger and the advanced analytics of MetaStock with this powerful MetaStock plug-in.

About John Bollinger

John Bollinger, though a respected money manager and TV analyst for CNBC, is perhaps best known for his contributions to the study of the volatility of security prices using his namesake, "Bollinger Band" indicator.

Now for the first time, John Bollinger has released some of his research in discovering indicators that complement the Bollinger Band "framework" and produce optimum buy/sell signals.

The result: The Bollinger Band System plug-in for MetaStock.
