"The wealth you are looking for lies within the work you are avoiding.
Analyse the charts!"

This chapter guides you in what to look for and what you should be paying attention to when analysing a market’s behaviour; how correctly ‘scaling’ your charts will give you the best set-up for assessing price behaviour without additional indicators; how getting intimate and focussing on only one or two instruments will enable you to have a better understanding of the nuances in each of their behaviour patterns which in turn could give you better opportunities to trade them; how to identify the best timeframe and

price scale for the instrument being observed; why the traditional candlestick is useless most of the time and how you can take advantage of any market’s ‘self-fulfilling prophecy’ behaviour; how to better ‘see’ the chart and indicator data; how to identify the ‘perfect’ setting for any indicator; and how to identify the correlation between a market’s behaviour and any indicator’s settings to eliminate many ‘false signals’ which they produce.

Neil Gershenfield

Get introduced to a new set of tools and learn how to use existing tools in a new way which will give you a real ‘edge’ when analysing and trading the market. This chapter also covers how to correctly read and understand volume behaviour; how levels-of-interest (also known as 'support and resistance' levels) should be created; how to plot more accurate trendlines off a single candle which price is more likely to follow in the future; how to set up your trendline patterns more accurately using a single trendline angle which is determined by a dominant timeframe and not price, and how to identify those dominant timeframes; how

to identify consolidation zones as they occur, more accurately estimate when they will end and which way price is more likely to go after that consolidation; how to identify behavioural cycles, predict the next cycle and when those cycles are more likely to end; how to see when the ‘force’ behind a trend switches to another ‘force’; how to identify momentum without indicators; how to see that price and volume behaviour of the past will ALWAYS influence the price and volume behaviour in the future; and how rescaling your chart and changing timeframes can present you with potentially better trade entries and exits.

‘Time is precious’ and is the most important component of any market. This chapter helps you to identify the best times to trade; the best timeframes to trade on; how to prepare for those (un)expected financial events; how to identify unique behaviour and mini-trends which nearly always occur at specific times or during specific cycles throughout the day; how to identify ‘leading’ instruments to the instrument you want to analyse and/or trade; and how to create more trading opportunities.

The only commodity you can't trade.

Not a strategy, but how to build one for yourself. This chapter explains what is required to develop, build and improve a trading strategy; how and when to employ it; how to stick strictly to your strategy no matter what; how to set up stop-losses and take-profits, including understanding ‘spreads’ and how these effect your profit and loss; how to use time, volume and/or volatility as a form of stop-loss or position exit; how to improve your position entries and

exits; the ‘only’ use for a risk-reward ratio; how to correctly back-test and forward-test a strategy by running it on historical data which directly relates to the specific constraints and conditions of your strategy; how to collect and manage ‘test’ and ‘training’ data for your strategy; and even how to select the best instruments to trade and the broker to be able to trade them with.

"How much 'measured' risk are you willing to take to reap an 'immeasurable' reward?"

The amount you risk is down to you as an individual – there is no one set rule, it ultimately comes down to what you can afford to lose if things turn to shit. But keeping your account in the ‘black’ is essential if you want to be a successful trader and how you manage your money when trading is key to this. So this chapter covers; how to develop and build your money-management strategy which is made up of how to assess yourself and understand your perception of risk; how to create your trading objective; understand the methods for growing your account which includes compounding your account and how to setup the

initial lot size then adjust it based upon winning and/or losing streaks; how to protect your account; how and when to reinvest; and how and when to withdraw what you have earned.

This chapter also gets you thinking about how the ‘indirect’ components of the money-management strategy can have an effect on how much you could win or lose such as - the effectiveness of the trading strategy itself, margin size, spread size, lot-size limitations governed by the broker, your ability to remain focused, and even the time of day you intend to trade.

"Inaction breeds doubt and fear.
Action breeds confidence and courage."

Dale Carnegie

When you sit down and trade for the first time, the ‘real you’ shows up to the party - and many traders don’t like who shows up. They believe that they know themselves until they are put under pressure and have their own money at risk which often leads to them becoming overly emotional, making irrational decisions and taking uncalculated risks. To develop this control you need to learn to know oneself, and of course, trade with real money. So, this chapter shows you how to assess and develop your environment and yourself as well as how to prepare your emotions and mind-set for trading; it gets you thinking about your lifestyle -

your diet and exercise regime; how over-exposing yourself to the market can be good for dealing with your ‘fear’ of the market; how to identify your performance peak so you know how long you can efficiently trade for; how to deal with wins and losses; how to identify when your emotions begin to take control and how to return to an emotional baseline; how to turn the act of trading into a game so you can develop your skills as a trader on a subconscious level whilst reducing the stress on your body and mind; and how you could use abbreviations to remember your trading strategy making it easier to stick to – especially when under

pressure. Essentially, being a successful trader is just as much about having a good trading and money-management strategy as it is about being in the right mind-set and being aware of and in control of your emotions at all times.
