Evolution of Futures Trading Systems
The futures trading systems provide a great edge to online traders over floor traders. They make the trading procedure easy for even novice traders and help even very-small scale traders to make profit. Futures trading systems were these for decades and with time they improved substantially.
The first type of futures trading systems was the “analysis systems”, which enables traders to use a range of technical indicators to analysis the market. But these systems did not help trades to build a good trading strategy as it was the trader who have to make all the decisions interpreting analyses. The next level was the black box systems which generated trading signals for traders by evaluating the market logically at specific prices. But the logic, the entry and exit rules, were kept in secret making traders completely blind to follow signals. These systems had poor customization capabilities and also did not helped traders to design a strategy.
The new generation of futures trading systems was developed in around 1985, which enabled traders to test their trading ability with historical market data. These systems provided traders full access to entry and exit rules. Today’s futures trading systems are integrated with excellent technical indicators, trading models and strategies to keep the trader live in any market condition. But today also many futures trading systems, grey box systems, hide some entry and exit rules from traders. They have integrated with copy protection methods, which some times causes crashing of these systems.
