  • #009 - Finding Your Trading Mindset
    Feb 10 2018

    It happens to many new (and seasoned) traders. You convince yourself that you need to participate in a particular trade only to find it doesn’t work. You start adding indicators and making it more complicated. You throw money at it, but still, it’s just not working.

    Some instruments just aren’t great to trade and sometimes you need to find a trade that better resonates with your approach to the markets.

  • #007 - Helping the Self-Directed Trader for Over 30 Years
    Dec 14 2017

    For years, trading has been dominated by institutions. They have capital, floor traders and access to information that the average retail investor just can’t reach; or can’t afford.


    Today, the tables are turning. The retail trader can actually gain an edge. For instance, a retail trader isn’t required to trade each day, they don’t have to close positions with market each evening and now, they have access to amazing news resources, indicators, studies, scans and back-testing engines using various tools on platforms like MetaStock.


    Today, I get to chat with Jeff Gibby, the business development manager at Metastock about the core products they offer.


    Jeff helps me answer questions like:


    > What does MetaStock Offer?

    > How can I get a statistical forecast of what “might happen?”

    >Buying and selling stock options and equities; what indicators work?
