Presentation
Discussion: Matt Reynolds is one of those rare gifted traders who reads
the mind of the market resulting in the
creation of a weekly forecast that has
produced results. [Prior
results is no guarantee of future success.] He shares what he knows about market dynamics so
you might benefit and reveals an intuitive
insight describing how the market works.
This talent has been developed over time
via years of rigorous study and analysis of
index futures and now commodities.
Starting with intra day oscillations he's now
migrated out into swing and position
forecasting which demonstrated results over 90
days of [July August September] testing.
Matt's
promise was 1st offered to us with his World
Wide Traders presentation in February 2006
when we initially sensed Matt possessed a
special contribution that makes his work
unique! More specifically, he had
crafted an enhanced Market Profile Model that
has passed the test of time applied in
multiple markets. He's named this
ingenious methodology ZoneTrader and will
explain the rudiments of its information
during Saturday's discussion.
His formula
for spotting critical trading zones is a tool
traders have discovered gives them a
distinctive trading edge. He's written 3
trading articles published in Futures Magazine
over the past couple years. Matt has a
personal passion for trading since he
graduated from college with a degree in
Finance... starting with the acquisition of
his Series 3 commodities broker agent license
[he performed as a full service broker for two
major trading firms], and then completing his MBA Spring 2007.
The ZoneTrader Philosophy is a
revolutionary form of auction market theory.It partitions the market into 13
predefined trading zones using incredibly
accurate support resistance levels.Each trading zone is described relative
to anticipated movement of market price
action.This provides us with a trading
advantage due to its ability to allow the
trader to determine where the market is and
what the market is trying to do throughout the
day, and more recently, using The COSMIC
Speculator Forecast, through the entire week.Tap into the Zone!
We will also describe his use of
Linear Regression Curves [instead of moving
averages] for determining support and
resistance combined with Fibonacci
Retracement.He will cover Fibonacci and a specific
pattern that he discovered called Kings
Crown.
This presentation is geared toward
learning how to use the COSMIC Speculator
Forecast which concentrates primarily on
Position Trading.He will touch on some fundamental
aspects such as Commitment of Traders Report
and Open Interest and finish up by covering
current long-term position we hold with the
Eurodollar [ED] Spread and demonstrate what
most educators omit, which is how to tie all
the information together.
Matt Reynolds is President, Derivative Concepts, Inc. You must see how his Support
and Resistance Formula creates trading zones
each day in the derivative markets, primarily
the Russell 2000, but several other markets
like Beans, Bond, Euro, Gold, Oil [just to
name a few] markets. You will learn how
to determine the condition of the market
on a daily basis. Interpreting open
interest and commitment of traders reports
provide a significant edge to starting each
trading day. Application of Matt's
photographic memory and the Kelley Formula for
money management puts traders in front of
others playing the markets.
Presentation
Discussion: Having
refined his established ZoneTrader Mentor Program, this
presentation demonstrates how his proprietary Zone Trader
Support and Resistance Formula creates the Trading Zones each
day in the derivative markets, initially the Russell 2000, but
now several other commodities markets like the Euro and Beans.
You will learn how to determine the condition of the market on a
daily basis. Interpreting open interest by observing
commitment of traders [COT] reports provides a significant edge
to starting each trading week. Application of Matt's
photographic memory and the Kelley Formula for Money Management
puts traders in front of others playing the markets.

Discussion: Many
pit traders are continuously in long or short positions much of
their day, ‘Always-In’.On the other hand electronic day traders often spend much
of their day out of the market waiting and watching for that
‘right and valid’ entry to a ‘high probability’ trade.Three years ago Bill asked himself the question, can a
pit trader style, Always-In, rule based, daytrading methodology
be developed that will ensure being ‘in’ when the profitable
trades occur, especially the highly profitable ones?For this he knew he needed entry/exit rules to remain
‘in’ long or short a high percentage of the time—including
routine reversals—along with effective rules for managing both
the winners and losers.
Presentation
Discussion: Are
you using too many indicators and not getting enough results? This presentation
demonstrates how a logic-based system for the eMini S&P uses price levels and scenarios to capture major intraday market
moves. Mr. Zimmerman shows you how this very different system
evolved and how it can work for you. It's a
relatively simple concept which can produce excellent results when
used correctly.Jeremiel
Zimmerman, the author of Ammo Trading, has been a featured guest on Jerry
Johnson’s Commodity Futures
Magazine in the TV program.

Presentation
Discussion: Finally,
a career floor trader who's made it, teaches us! Scott Kohl
discusses application and interpretation of charting combined to incorporate
scheduled economic reports with
technical's of the market. He shows us trends and psychology of
trading and how to apply
timing and discipline to trading. Mr. Kohl is a full member of
the CME... has been around traders and
the business of trading since he was a child. In
1984 after studying at Indiana University, he became a trader at
age 21 where he spent nineteen years in the S&P. But his greatest love is his success in training
traders. While he’s fascinated by new trading systems
and innovative software technology, he prefers to focus on
individual and mass psychology of the market. After all,
markets just go up and down; it’s people that jump around
every which way. The Market and trading has rewarded him
with a wonderfully privileged
life. This life is not for everyone; however, for those
chosen few interested and capable people, he strives to share what he can
with the ones who really want to learn. While
Scott's name is not well known like Bollinger, Busby, Pring or
Rashke, his credential of having been spawned from the floor add
tremendously toward his value in trader
education.

Discussion: Larry
Pesavento, a 40 year trading veteran, discusses his pattern
recognition swing trading methodology. This presentation focuses
on actual trades that he'll search for in the coming week in
futures, stocks, stock indices and ForeX. In addition, he points
to the unusual pattern unfolding in one of the more popular
trading vehicles in the world. This situation deserves
everyone's attention. It may not work, but it is everything a
pattern recognition trader can expect. Larry discusses his own
personal trading plan and how he develops the mental preparation
of his trading each day using a simple 5 minute “mantra.”
Presentation
Discussion:
This
seminar shares with you the no-nonsense approach Barry finally
developed after 5 years of searching. Like any good business, it
is simple and straight forward. No fancy programs,
software or expensive hi-tech tools are needed. Most
importantly, it is a very low risk strategy that allows you to
"risk a dime to make a dollar" and even find the
"home runs" without striking out. He uses this same
robust methodology for his long-term stock investments, option
trades and also stock and futures day trades. Many charting
examples are provided to demonstrate how to put the trades into
play. If you're interested in a very practical "how to make
money" presentation, then this is it!
Barry
invests and trades for one reason: to make money. He's not
interested in theories, speculations, or fancy gimmicks. The
financial markets are filled with information overload!
Some of the information is good, some of it is bad, but there's
only one thing he cares about: Will it make money?
Presentation
Discussion:Matthew
Reynolds President of Derivative Concepts Inc. and writer of
article Intraday Breakout Trading Off The Herrick Payoff Index
which appears in the October 2005 issue of Futures Magazine,
will present multiple daytrading indicators. Matthew will
discuss the use of and importance of the Herrick Payoff Index
(which is composed of Volume, Open Interest, and Price), as well
as daily range formulas, momentum indicators, and the valuable
VRR indicator which is extremely important to breakout traders
for determining the condition of the market as well as limiting
false signals. Matthew will discuss the importance and
history of Fibonacci number sets and ratios as they appear in
nature and derive or compose all of his indicators.
Matthew will also present the Kelley Formula and its correct use
for money management and deterring market commitment as to % of
funds or total lot size.

Discussion:
Bernie Mitchell decided he was going to make a living trading
the markets in 1980, when he sold a lucrative advertising
business he owned on Madison Avenue in NY.For several years earlier, Bernie was a losing trader.He didn’t have the guidance of a trading plan
that is vital to successful trading.During these early years, Bernie attended seminars given
by the market gurus of the time, Larry Williams, Welles Wilder
and others, spending thousands, that were packed more with
theory than practical application.Bernie wanted a precise course of action that
would be consistent.The decoding of the Impulse Wave Pattern became that
star, ultimately in a cast of indicators featuring his Moving
Averages for trend following, and Squat Bars
indicating market reversals, that would provide clear, precise
action he needed.Those developments occurred in 1992, when he migrated from
end-of-day trading to active intra-day trading.

Discussion:
Dr. John Clayburg presents High Probability
Trading Strategies for the active trader and demonstrates the use of hisDirectional Day Filter (DDF), which enables you to put
the probabilities significantly in your favor, regardless which
market you trade. He explains the research
supporting his statement that:“You
can enter in the direction of the major trend of the day with 75%
accuracy.”The Directional Day Filter has been
statistically proven to accurately define the major trend of the
day shortly after the open. According to one Chicago trader “I
don’t know how I ever traded without his indicators.” The emphasis of the presentation explains and demonstrates the use of commonly available oscillator
indicators, which you will learn how to use in combination with
the Directional Day Filter to establish high probability entry
points. You will see how this approach can give you a significant
edge and early morning advantage when trading.
Presentation
Discussion: This
2 hour presentation focuses on trades in
the S&P 500, NASDAQ 100, NYSE and ForeX markets using his
swing trading pattern recognition system. Mr. Pesavento stresses the importance of risk control and
the correct mental attitude to be successful. The
importance of opening price is strongly illustrated. He will
describe how to use pattern recognition as a leading indicator
for use in any time frame in order to reduce risk. Mr. Pesavento will address the four areas that must be
mastered by the successful trader:
1. Knowledge of your self
3. Understanding the principle of
risk control
2. Knowledge of the market
4. Daily implementation of your
trading plan
The structure of market geometry is explained in the
context of pattern recognition system he's used for
30 years. Viewers hear first hand how the seemingly
chaotic nature of markets can be used to the non random
patterns present in the markets each day.
Presentation
Discussion: This seminar teaches how to
"think" like a professional when a particular news item
scrolls across your screen.Traders
trade people – to trade traders’
perceptions to the news and the public’s feelings of greed and
fear -- not the news item itself.We demonstrate an objective process of how various
company news events merely are an additional means to direct our
attention to the charts to see if a tradable opportunity exists
– whether with the stock in the news, a competitor, or an
affected company.Among
other topics, we show you how to analyze and determine
opportunity with the following news events:bankruptcy; developments involving biotechnology companies;
buyouts and spin-offs; changes by debt rating agencies &
auditor reports, disasters and sabotage; earnings and dividends;
illegal activity, fines and governmental investigations; layoffs,
strikes and management changes; products, pricing, recalls, and
advertising; comments by public news sources and analyst rating
changes; affect of huge short interest; stock splits, and more.
Presentation
Discussion: With chart comparisons
Ray demonstrates how, not only the
chart of the product you're watching gives you information on
your trade, but how other product's charts relate and how to use
this relation to aid in making trades.

Discussion:
We examine detailed case
studies of typical trend retracement trade setups.We explore 3 different
locations to enter the
retracement, when it is most beneficial to use each of the 3 entry techniques,
and provide clear rules to help you find the best
time and location to enter
each trade.This
is an extremely practical and street-smart
presentation intended to
help give you a profoundextra
edge in your trading. The secret to real estate investing is location,
location, location.
The
same is true of trading: The location of
Where you get into a trade
is EVERYTHING!Another
principle of real estate success is:
"You
make money when you BUY, not when you sell."Again,
the same principle is true in trading.Have
you ever had the market take out your stop
and then proceed to move
in the direction of your
trade for a big win?
Do
you find yourself getting into trades too
early sometimes, but too
late other times? I
learned a vital secret from one of my mentors
at the Chicago Mercantile
Exchange. He said,
"Most
amateurs are right. They're just right
at the wrong time."
In
this presentation
you learn:
The
ultimate "unfair advantage" and how you can
have it.
How
to take out other people's stops for fun and profit!
Early
entries with spandex-tight stops!
How
to get in long before "the crowd."
"Find
the Loser" and trade against him.
How
to get lower prices when you buy, higher prices when you
short!
W.D.
Gann's "Safest place to enter the market."
Earlier
entries means lower risk because your stops are closer to your
entries. Since your risk
is lower, your potential
reward becomes greater and
you dramatically increase
your risk/reward ratio.Learn
specialized early entries designed for day
trading, swing trading and
investing. They also work for both
stocks and futures. These
professional entry techniques can be used
with any electronic
trading platform, in any
market, and on any time
frame. Trading
is an art, and as such there is not a
"one size fits all" entry technique. Therefore
we'll be looking at special "early entry"
techniques for various
types of trade setups: retracement,
breakouts, consolidating
markets and trending markets.
Presentation
Discussion: After working with Fibonacci numbers for 20 years, Bernie
Mitchell has vastly improved the usual techniques for computing
retracement levels. Standard Fibonacci Levels left a lot
to be desired. His technique of using multiple swings to pin
point Support/Resistance solves the problem by providing a high
probability of stopping a market advance (resistance) and
halting a market decline (support). This improvement is so
significant that a trader, with other tools at his disposal, can
make effective use of these natural numbers.Bernie's use of Fibonacci Clusters will determine
support and resistance in the direction of the main trend (which
is always determined by prices either above or below the
long-term moving average) — it is what he calls his "Main
89 Line." Most charting packages will enable you to create
a simple 89-period moving average. Bernie encourages you to look
at the market this way.
This presentation goes into great detail
teaching how this process works. One thing about
Bernie... he never lets moss grow under his tree... always
trying to improve his techniques to raise the bar for traders to
trade even better than the year before. The two links
below provide previews of what Bernie will share with us in his
presentation.

Discussion: The
session describes the “$10 Gold Channel Strategy”
developed by Tom Loge'. He takes us through CBOT's
launch
of the Electronic Gold contract and to gain an
understanding of how his strategy together with the new electronic
market
are a dynamic “match made in heaven” …well, Chicago
anyway. Tom
is one of the founding partners of Support and Resistance dot
com. A 20+ year veteran of commodities markets trading, Tom has
managed over $300,000,000 in hedging programs, and was a broker
for 10 years before devoting full time to trading. Now he
shares
his successful trading strategies, controversial risk and money
management thinking with us as he does his daily for his subscribers'
trade
commentary.
Presentation
Discussion: The
30 Year T-Bond has become almost a mechanical trade for Tom. He believes
there are only 2 price levels that dominate price action in bonds…
the whole number, i.e. 114-00, 113-00, 112-00, etc. and
the half, -16, i.e. 114-16, 113-16, 112-16, etc. He believes that every
price from 113-00 to 113-31 in some way or another relates to a
trader thought process tied to -00 or -16. Here's what
Tom has to say:
Try this exercise: Pick
any time frame of a daily Bond chart. If you identify and
isolate the strongest R&S lines on the chart, 95% of them
will be lines either at -00 or -16. Pick a weekly or monthly
chart. Nearly every strong S&R line will be drawn at -00. Any fill that
occurs in Bonds not at -00 or -16 wishes it would have been. Fills
at other than -00 or -16 are the result of a trader or broker
being too late, too early on execution or the pain threshold
finally was unbearable.
Presentation
Discussion: Stocks
make strong up moves when demand overwhelms supply.Such patterns are often started with a Bullish Wide Range
Bar (+WRB), on Increased Volume (+Vol.).We call these +WRB "Igniting a new move," and
they often do not give us the luxury of a controlled, low risk
pull back to enter, such as a Pristine Buy Setup (PBS) with
numerous amplifiers.So
how does a prudent trader decide how and when to take a bullish
position when the stock most likely appears overbought?First, if the +WRB is from a base or oversold PBS, then
our strategies include buying (a) over the prior bar's high, the
most current level of prior supply (or 30-Min. high, for
example, if the next smaller time frame is too extended); (b) a
1-2-3 continuation; or (c) a PBS on a smaller time frame,
provided it does not retrace more than 50% into the real body of
the +WRB breakout bar.Second, is through the use of pivots.In TPM#2, we demonstrate four levels of pivots and how to
trade each.Under
this scenario, you could buy over a Level 1 or 2 minor pivot
high as the stock, if it is to remain strong, will unlikely
offer a Level 2 or 3 pivot on that time frame.Third, many new moves are ignited by bullish Pristine
Guerrilla Plays and Failed Patterns.
Presentation
Discussion: Best-selling author, Toni Turner, discusses the distinctive
signals broadcast by volume.As
traders, we make a good portion of our profits by anticipating
reversals in demand and supply.Many times those changes can be anticipated by measuring
the number of shares or contracts traded in a given time frame,
then combining this information with other signals given by
price action and indicators.Volume
acts as a variable that is independent of price.This
is beneficial, because it offers information about the market we
are trading as evidence apart from price action.Exploding or imploding volume activity can alert us
to trend reversals, confirm entry decisions, indicate the
