Supply and Demand is how the whole world works, it’s commerce in its basic form, this is how trade and trading is really done. I hope that you enjoy the content on my website.

I am writing this to you with over 25+ years of experience of trading and the financial markets, I worked for some of the world’s biggest Investment Banks and Institutional Brokers and my reasoning is because my heart goes out to traders in the Retail market because you have been sold a lie.

Time doesn’t exist.

Having a directional bias is damaging your trading.

My mission is to help retail traders such as yourself become professionals and to give you the level of education that you really need to become a success. I run a one to one mentoring course that will help you discover what’s really going on behind the scenes.

Please don’t expect anything flash from my website, there will be no pop ups, nothing that requires you to fill out your details, you won’t be added to an annoying mailing list, I’m just here to try and pass on the knowledge that I gained while working on various trading floors in the City of London, trading a variety of different financial products.

Included on the website are three interviews that have taken place over the years, they are fun to do, and hopefully if you haven’t already watched or listened to them, they can give you a flavor of who I am and what I’m about.

Why Do Retail Traders Struggle?

 The short and sharp answer to this question is EDUCATION.

 I need to make you think about the end game, by that I mean think about who makes money and how do they make it.

 By now you will have been exposed to many trading websites, watched YouTube videos, read various books regarding trading, and must have realised that they all bang on about the same things.

 Think about who these are aimed at, i.e YOU, they are all based around technical analysis, chart patterns and the use of indicators, so if like the many people I have taught over the years, you know that they don’t work, you must ask yourself who are all these things sponsored by, and why. The markets certainly didn’t open after the invention of the desktop computers, it was way before, so you have to ask yourself, if technical analysis didn’t exist then, or indicators, how on earth were the markets traded? As they always have been, simple Supply and Demand, and nothing has changed.

 Retail Brokers

Don’t you find it a bit strange that your retail broker offers you “education”?

 I mean are they seriously going to teach you how to take their money, sorry to sound skeptical but the answer can only be a big fat NO.

So then why do they offer education, and work in conjunction with other trading “guru’s” that also offer education, we have to think of the end game here, it’s about your broker making money, not you.

As an example let’s just take a look at the English Premier League, how many clubs and teams are sponsored by retail FX trading companies, quite a few and those sponsorship deals don’t come cheap, so where does the money come from, quite simply retail traders, so perhaps the “education” they offer and preach goes a very long way to paying for these sponsorships….  Perhaps you’re paying to sponsor your rival team?

 So what can you do to get away from looking at the markets from a retail perspective?

 Learn the rules of the game before you play, simple really, if you think about it, when you buy your children a new game, you read the rules first, so that you know you are playing the game properly, learning how the institutions approach trading would be a really good way to setting you on the right path, and to leave behind the retail approach, that we know doesn’t work.

Trading is Simple

Trading isn’t complicated, trading is simple, all markets are traded in the same way by the people who trade them. I’m not talking about Retail Traders here I mean the Institutions. We look at the markets in a totally different way to Retail traders, we understand what they are, we’re not cleverer than you are, it’s just that we’ve had a different education to you. Our jobs are to make as much money for the institution we work for, and in turn we get taught how to do this and I’d like to share my knowledge with you.

A Small Insight

The Institutions trade from Supply and Demand levels that have been established over decades!

Markets are bought and sold in huge amounts on the basis of price, not because some useless indicator tells them to trade.

The Institutions already know what they want to do ahead of time, they already know which prices are cheap and which are expensive so they always know what they want to do before they do it.

The Institutions wait until the prices appear and then they pounce, they do not trade every day, they may perhaps not trade every week, but they know that when the right opportunity comes along they are ready.

The Institutions wait until the commercial side of the business moves the markets to these cheap and expensive prices, they do not pre-empt their trades, they sit on their hands until the time is right.

The Institutions know what really drives markets and they pay attention to these factors.

The truth is that what you need to learn and understand is how to play the game to the same level as the professionals and it doesn’t take much to learn, it’s not rocket science at all.

How would you feel to always know where your next trade is going to be?

How would you feel to be able to analyse a chart correctly, to do this only once and to have all your trading levels mapped out for you ahead of the time, essentially meaning you have a chart for life?

Imagine the difference in your trading to be able to look at the right-hand side of your chart, which is normally blank and have each trading level already there?

Apologies if this sounds like a bit of a rant, but I get so annoyed of seeing the internet covered in bullshit about trading, I know I can’t help everybody, that would be impossible, but if your reading this today, and you could do with some help, please do feel free to get in contact with me.

Places on my course are strictly limited and I have to turn down people who aren’t serious about really learning how to trade, but if you are serious and you want to change your perception of what can be achieved from trading then please message me on LinkedIn, send an email to [email protected] or give me a call on 07731-562-362
