The Futures Trading Guide is a hypothetical trading system based on the 9-18 Day Moving Average Crossover strategy. 


This popular strategy takes a Buy position when the shorter term 9-Day Moving Average closes above the longer term 18-Day Moving Average, and takes a Sell position when the 9-Day closes below the 18-Day. 

The hypothetical profit is based on the point value of one futures contract from the Last price compared to the settlement price on the start date of the signal.
