Overview

This work outlines a highly successful alternative approach to trading commodity futures, specially tailored to today's low priced commodities markets. Unlike technical analysis, which uses statistics to inform trading decisions, scale trading is a form of fundamental analysis in which a trader slowly buys prices as they reach bottom and sells them as they climb back up. Hal Masover describes trading techniques that work in every commodity market, including metals, energies, utilities, and agriculture.
