The Power Emini Momentum System is the easiest to use Futures Day Trading system you’ll ever find.
While it’s an institutional-grade trading system and there’s a lot of complexity to the logic behind the scenes, the software itself is dead simple to trade with. There is no ambiguity because the software gives the EXACT Entry, Trailing Stop and Target levels.
And you can easily trade along with the Alerts on any platform using any charting software.
So let’s walk through a trade step-by-step using the Alert from August 1st, 2025 as an example.
We recommend new users start off with the most basic strategy – trading 2 MES Contracts and just shooting for the 2 Targets.
(note the system is using real-time ES data but we’re trading MES)
So prior to the cash session open (9:30 eastern) just open up the Alert Software and you’ll see one line in the System Notes that shows today’s date and which Contract the system is trading. The system comes online at the cash session open.
After the first 5 minutes of the session the software will display the Dynamic Trigger Range and you’ll see the Range High and Range Low pop in the software – both in the System Notes and the upper section.
The Dynamic Trigger Range is simply a visual reference point.
On your 1-minute chart place a Green horizontal line at the Range High and a Red horizontal line at the Range Low. When the price begins to escape the range in either direction, the system will start looking for a potential trade in the direction of the range break.
If there’s enough “forward momentum” in the direction of the range break it will give an Alert. When it gives an Alert the Alert Banner will pop into the upper section of the software and you will hear an audio alert “Power Emini Trade Alert…”. It was a Short in this case and you can see the Alert Banner is red.
We see the Short Alert was given at 9:38 with the “Trade Price Barrier” at 6284.00.
The Trade Price Barrier is simply a line in the sand that the price must cross before we pull the trigger and enter the trade.
When the software gives an Alert, the very next 1-minute candle that closes 1-tick or more PAST the Alert Price / Trade Price Barrier “triggers-in” the trade. The trade could fill on the very next 1-minute candle close or it could take 5-10-15+ minutes before there’s a 1-minute close past the Barrier. Not every Alert triggers-in because the price might change directions and the system “resets”.
On the 1-minute chart you’re watching the price action and as soon as there’s a 1-minute closing candle (or price bar) at 6283.75 or lower you’d simply “go short” 2 Contracts with a Market Order.
You can see in the System Notes that it took 3-minutes for this Alert to fill / trigger-in and at 9:41 the Entry Confirmation occurred at 6281.00.
(It doesn’t matter if your Entry is slightly different than the system because a little slippage works both ways and evens out over time. In other words sometimes you’ll get a better fill than the system).
On the same line in the System Notes as the Entry Confirmation level you’ll see the “Initial Stop”. Just set a hard stop on both Contracts at that level.
At the exact moment the Entry Confirmation (fill on the order) took place, the software prints another line that shows the 2 Targets.
So you’re in a short trade with 2 MES Contracts and you have a hard stop set at 6299.00 and you’re looking to sell 1 Contract at 6270.00 (Target 1) and 1 Contract at 6244.00 (Target 2).
You can choose to set GTC sell orders at the 2 Targets or you can choose to monitor the trade and sell manually. There are pros and cons to both methods which I’m happy to elaborate on if you email me.
At 9:44 (as you see in the system notes above) the price hit Target 1 and you’d sell 1 Contract for an 11.00 point gain.
At the same time Target 1 is hit the system tightened the Trailing Stop on the remaining Contract to 6290.75. You can see the Trailing Stop move in the System Notes and there’s a corresponding audio alert. So you simply drag your stop order on the chart to the new level.
At 10:01 the Trailing Stop tightened again so you’d just tighten your Stop to 6283.00
A minute and a half later price hit Target 2 at 6244.00 for a 37.00 point gain from the Entry.
You’d sell the second Contract there and you’re “done for the day”.
Once both Targets get hit, the system isn’t going to issue any more Alerts that session. It will keep the trade open and continue to tighten the Trailing Stop for users that are trading more than 2 Contracts for the possibility of catching a “runner”.
Here’s a look at the 1-minute chart to help visualize everything that transpired.
August 1st, 2025 was a good day for the Momentum System.
Both Targets got hit for a total of 48.00 points (trading 2 Contracts) in the first 30-minutes of the session.
Keep in mind every session is different and the system adapts to any type of market conditions. The distance to the Trailing Stops and Targets are a function of the current real-time ATR’s in the market.
