A recent Wall Street Journal article analyzed the problem that holds back so many investors. Once they decide their position on an investment, they only see information that supports their belief, and ignore all evidence to the contrary... with potentially disastrous results.
Here’s a perfect example. Suppose you lost 40% or 50% of your retirement funds during the stock market downturn—yet you didn’t sell because at heart you’re a “buy and hold” investor. Recently the market has recovered much of the ground it lost and it’s tempting to assume everything is just fine—because you’re a buy and hold investor and that philosophy has been “proven right” again.
Why it’s time to get rid of old habits... and start making REAL money!
But guess what. While many investors sat stunned and watch their net worth plummet, a select group of traders remained active in the market. They capitalized on downswings, took their profits on brief rallies, and bet against the market when all the news was bad. While others were on the sidelines, these traders were making money. On good days... bad days... and even days when the market was going nowhere.
We call these investors Market-Driven Traders. They’ve learned to put aside the old habits that can cost you money. They’ve learned to tune out the “conventional wisdom” and listen to the only true and reliable source of information about where the market is going. And that is the market itself—through the signals it provides in advance of its moves to those who have the skills and discipline to recognize them.
Learn from the best how to master the markets... at our FREE trading workshop.
You are going to meet some of these traders at our workshop. In fact, you’ll actually see them make live trades before your eyes and explain their strategy. Because in addition to being traders... they are the gifted instructors who teach regularly at Online Trading Academy. And they have a passion for helping others succeed by learning to follow the right principles.
We understand you may have questions about this free workshop and what’s in it for you. So let me give you answers to some frequently asked questions...
Q. Does it matter what kind of trader I am?
A. Whether you're a long term investor or a momentum intra-day trader, if you trade one hour every month or do 20 trades a day, nearly all traders face the same challenges, make the same mistakes and fall into similar traps.
This workshop focuses on the most important principles to achieving consistently profitable results. Most attendees will quickly identify the areas they are overlooking or don't fully comprehend and this session will likely give you a real "Aha" moment that will dramatically change the way you think about today's market.
Remember, for most of our attendees the “conventional wisdom” hasn’t been working. That’s why they’re ready to reverse their fortunes (and their losses) as a Market-Driven Trader.
Q. Exactly what can I expect from this workshop? Why is it worth my time?
A. Fair question. Let me start by defining what this workshop is NOT. It isn’t one of those online “webinars” you half-listen to while you’re checking your email or Twitter. You’ll be learning the old fashioned way—in person, at a comfortable Training Center with a brilliant instructor.
It’s also not one of those “hotel seminars” where you’re packed into a room like sardines to get a sales pitch from a professional presenter who’s here today, gone tomorrow. Our workshops are limited to no more than 20 attendees in order to guarantee personal attention for each student. Which is why we can cover all this and more in the space of just four hours:
- What your broker and the media never told you about the market’s retreat.... how much it’s been costing you... and how to recast your view of the market..
- The Seven Pillars of Effective Trading... and why you need to master every one to become a Market-Driven Trader. (Also explained on your FREE take-home CD!)
- How to tune out misinformation and misdirection and listen to the only true source of market intelligence... the market itself.
- How to translate knowledge and instinct into action using fundamentals and technical analysis like you’ve never seen them explained before. (This is reinforced on a second FREE CD provided to all attendees.)
- Adding risk management to your portfolio tools... so you can follow the Market-Driven Trader’s #1 rule and not lose money.
- Using all you’ve learned to execute trades on a state-of-the-art electronic system that gives you a market maker’s edge with your buy and sell orders.
- And much more... including examples of live trades (on weekday classes when the market is open) where you’ll see the principles of the Market-Driven Trader put to the test.
That’s why I say your time at our Power Trading Workshop will be the most productive four hours you’ll spend all year. You’ll go home with a jolt of fresh energy, a completely new perspective on the market, and specific strategies to make your trading more profitable while eliminating bad habits that put you in the red!
Q. What makes Online Trading Academy unique and why are you offering this workshop for free?
A. Online Trading Academy can be traced back to one of the largest trading floors in the U.S., with 180 traders averaging half a billion dollars in daily transactions. To get underperforming traders on track, our founder offered coaching sessions on how to trade more consistently and profitably. It worked and new traders flocked to join us just for the incredibly effective training.
In 2001 the trading floor was sold and Online Trading Academy became purely a trading education company, teaching novice and professional traders alike the skills they need to truly be successful. Since then tens of thousands of students have passed through our doors and moved on to become profitable in the markets.
Our instructors are now regular expert advisors and guests on CNBC, Bloomberg and many other major TV and radio stations around the world. We have a frequent presence in magazines such as Equities, Active Trader, Futures, Stocks & Commodities and many others.
Online Trading Academy is also partnered with NASDAQ and is the exclusive education partner for NASDAQ TotalView. And NASDAQ does not hand over their training to just anybody. Our only goal is to help you become a truly successful trader and start making the returns you deserve.
And as to why we offer the How to Become a Market-Driven Trader workshop—easily a $199 value based on standard tuition rates—at no charge? (And send you home with two CDs which are worth another $99.) That’s an easy one. We think this “free sample” will convince you of the quality of our curriculum and our instructors. But there’s absolutely no obligation and no downside when you
Q. What if I want additional training as a Market-Driven Trader?
A. You’ll get more information about our complete curriculum at the workshop. In the meantime, here are some facts you should know. (And if you’ve taken other investing classes, please don’t hesitate to compare to your previous experience.)
- We have intensive trading courses available in Options, Forex and Commodities as well as Stocks—so our students can learn how to make money regardless of market direction, timeframe or asset category.
- Students at Online Trading Academy’s trading classes work at their own terminal in our state-of-the-art Training Centers (our desire to show off the center in your community is yet another reason for the free workshop, by the way). This gives them full access to the market so they can make trades under the supervision of our experienced instructors.
- Students make trades with OUR money. That’s right. We pay the commission tickets and we absorb any losses. We do this so our students can practice trading without fear of losing money until profitability becomes second nature.
- Our ongoing classes aren’t cheap (unless you weigh the tuition cost against the far greater profit potential)... but they can be FREE with tuition rebates many of our students earn against their trading commissions after they graduate.
- For most courses, we offer FREE retakes for the rest of your life at any of our worldwide centers. So you can return whenever you need a refresher course, or if you simply want to rekindle your trading energy.
And there’s one final thing I haven’t told you about learning and trading at Online Trading Academy. It just doesn’t feel like work. I don’t care if you’re making trades in class under the watchful eye of your instructor, or trading at home in your pajamas, executing a winning trade gives you the satisfaction of a smart chess move with the additional bonus of money in your pocket (or your retirement account).
Quite simply, it’s a whole lot of fun to boost your confidence as a Market-Driven Trader! And it all starts when you attend our FREE workshop... so sign up now for the next session at a Training Center near you!
