What a bout Larry Levin's Secrets of Traders .com? Anybody out there been on his mentorship programs? J
I traded in this guy's room for 3 months. He's green every day. He's a momentum scalper. He uses hot keys like maniac. You'll probably have to pay big bucks through OTA but watching him was a real epiphany for me. He's a hyperactive Nasdaq trader who scales in and out of thousands of shares while darting in, out and reversing like a fighter pilot, sometimes in as little as a few seconds. He will mentor you and answer your questions in real time. He's only one style of trading though and you should study as many styles as you can. You can also study what Adrian Manz does primarily with NYSE stocks. By reading his book and doing what he says, you will probably make money. He has a unique group of set ups which work. He's a day trader only but he's definitely NOT hyperactive. Both these guys are 100% legit and both make consistent money. Manz is trading hedge fund money with the trades he recommends. Finally there's a Bill McDowell who's a futures trader with a trading room. I think he's been in the business a long time, makes money and his room is reasonably priced if I'm not mistaken. I found his phone number in my pda 949-551-2190 although I couldn't find him on Google. I don't know the guy nor have I ever seen him trade though. Be sure to read every book you can and start out with a simulated account like Tradestation's so you won't piss away your account like I and everyone else always does when they start, and probably multiple times before becoming profitable. John Carter's "Mastering the Trade is particularly good and Martin Pring's "Introduction to Technical Analysis" will get you on the right track. Still, there's nothing like watching and hearing a seasoned pro narrate in real time what set ups he's looking for and then watching how he executes.
One thing I would tell someone close to me who wanted to learn to trade would be to listen to Gary Kaultbaum's radio show. It's on every day the market is open and Gary is a seasoned pro who manages over $1.5billion (God why in the world would a guy like that waste his time with seminars, courses, newsletters and a radio show?).
I purchased his course. It was a hodge podge of different things he put together. I was very unimpressed and sent it back for a refund. For example, he uses a bullish engulfing pattern on a 10 minute ES chart as one of his favorite entries. He also has rules for using the value area, which he describes in his free nightly newsletter. There are a few other techniques he uses as well. He reports his daily trading room results in his nightly newsletter and does not seem to do very well. Maybe some people do well with his methods, but I have taken much better courses than his.
For Forex currency trading the best guy is Wayne Jackson (aka Jacko) . Has a public and proven record of successful forex trading and is open to mentoring committed traders. He occcasionally posts over at Forex Factory.
Wow this faggot is trying to sell 20 minutes worth of "voice" advice for $100! http://daytradewell.com/buy-marks-time.html Apparently he once manged $150,000,000 in assets and also ran a hedge fund. I bet if he was anything remotely successful, this scum would've had enough money that he wouldn't have to waste his time on some shitty website marketing his "expertise". .
The reason most traders lose is because they want to learn everything in 5 minutes. Just because a trader is good does not mean you will become a good trader. If that were so, everyone attending the Puretick room would be millionaires. Only those who want to develop their skills will make it. You can read all the books in the world and the odds say 90% will fail. Learning to trade successfully is like attempting to get into and graduate from Yale Law School. Yes I will be criticized for being a liar because most of these newbies want me to tell you to come into our trading room and we will guarantee that you become a super trader. But I refuse to deal in hype. Becoming a successful trader was the most difficult thing I have ever done. I lost money for 4 years in a row before becoming even break even consistent. In our trading room I will point you to the right equipment, but you still have to lift the weights to get a great body. Successfully, Alex L.
