Covered GENZ 44.24
for a profit of +62c per share in six minutes.
Both Alan and I are looking forward to meeting all the attendees tomorrow at the joint seminar and showing them how to find this sort of moving stock, why and when we enter and exit this type of trade to earn our living.
Alan and I have already coached many of those coming tomorrow on a 1-2-1 basis and we'll show you even more of our techniques.
It'll be great to meet old friends again - and new ones.

Can anyone who attended the seminar give a review of what they thought. Good/bad/indifferent?
After all the fuss about proof of performance etc before the seminar, I can't believe that no one has said anything yet?
I didn't attend but would certainly consider attending future seminars if there is positive feedback.

Hi Darren
It was a long but enjoyable day. I certainly learnt a lot and I've now added L2 as one of my skills that I can use
Lots of methods were shown and I'm now working my way through the various techniques and trying to incorporate level 2 where possible.
It was everything that I expected from 2 top traders

Hi Naz & Mr.Charts
Thank you very much for a great day

Hi Darrenf,
There were about 15 of us there.Some who already trade the Nasdaq.Privately many have thanked us for the day.However sometimes if you learn something new and it really does work then many like to keep it to themselves and try it out.Today i should imagine many did just that.

We did indeed have 15 attendees who filled the room we had booked ;-)
It was a great session.
The above method was shown by Naz.
One of the approaches I showed identified CECO BEFORE the market even opened and my entry and exit rules would have produced a $3 move by those using them ;-)
Both Naz and I felt honoured by the turnout and we appreciate the efforts of all those who came, whether from only a few miles away, up North, Wales, or flying into Heathrow.
Thank you for coming and don't forget we are happy to answer any questions from the attendees - just email.
CECO was a great shark's bite on the second high probability pattern ;-))

OK Naz Thanks,
this is something that I use on the futures markets & have been scanning Nasdaq stock's to see how it performs.....just to satisfy my curiosity really but I have noticed it performs well, & Nasdaq Stock do tend to move well...........are there a certain group of stocks as this one which tend to perform in the same manner?
just say 5-6 of what u would consider the most Liquid & good trending?.......if u dont mind of course
Thanks

Hi Jay,
I'm in the process of changing my core stocks.Mainly because the ones that i had that were liquid and good trenders have fallen off a cliff.ie NTES and JBLU.When i get a decent list again,i'll probably post them.
On to a support/resistance areas on a Nasdaq stocks.
Like any of these areas the best way of viewing these is with the Nasdaq level 2 screen.It does actualy give you an edge in viewing what can happen before the chart records the movement.So if this was something that you were interested in i think a level 2 set up i think would help.
If i'm free in Dec when things slow down you are welcome to come and have a chat if you're anywhere near Heathrow.

So, on to the seminar by Mr. Charts and Naz. Knowing nothing about US stocks or L2, I thought I might get left behind, or find myself out of my depths.... but I wasn't. Both assumed that we were all conversant with basic trading techniques, and asked , just to make sure.
First up, Richard ( Mr. Charts). A very quiet person, almost shy, but came over very sincere about everything he discussed. It was clear, right from the off, that he was not interested in taking ANY sort of loss, beyond a few cents per trade. Robot like, you could say. He did make one exception, and that was on certain short entries, he may allow a few more cents loss to accrue before exiting. He must be good, because one of the things he advocates is something that I also believe strongly in- " Don't take my word for it. Prove it for yourself". Having discussed various entry strategies, he emphasised that we should go away and do our homework and validate for ourselves that the strategies work, or otherwise. He made mention of another interesting point, in that his favourite basket of stocks was continually being updated, in an effort to find stocks that could be traded regularly and profitably. His exit strategy was simplicity itself. No If this, if that, then the other. One simple rule and that's it. Well almost... he closes half of his position and allows the other half to either run, or close on the next bar if his exit criteria continues. He uses various software packages to scan for stocks pre market, looking for gappers, winners, losers %'s and $$. From that he choses stocks that may meet his entry criteria and off he goes, trading 3-5 stocks a day, ranging from 5- 100 $ a share. Below 10$, he trades 5000 lots, above 10$, 1000 lots. Trading more means a harder time offloading when the time comes- makes sense. He sometimes uses L2 to manage a trade and see what's going on, but it is not his main tool.
The afternoon session was spent working through examples from charts that he had traded, elaborating on where and why he took the trade, and where he exited. It seems that the whole time, he was always deep in thought and totally concentrating on what he was doing. Any questions put to him were answered with conviction and without the customary uhmm's and ahh's.
Second up was Alan ( Naz), chomping at the bit.... at the other end of the scale compared to Richard. His first session was taken up by discussing his trading methods, principally using TA and then executing the trade and managing it using L2. He favours Fibonacci retracements to base a lot of his decisions on and showed numerous charts that bounced on 50%....uncanny, but not rocket science.... The second session was a real eye opener. I 'd read some of his postings and I've taken a peek at L2 and just waved it goodbye... far too complex... But not now. His in depth explanation as to what happens at support and resistance and what to look for was amazing. OK, so we didn't get to do this live, but he had slide shows of charts and the accompanying L2 screen to show the moves as they unfolded. When he says you see the move a minute before it happens on ANY chart is absolutely true. He knows what to look for, has his order in place, ready to hit the button as soon as he sees the AXE make its move. This leaves no room for guesswork. Is it going to bounce? OR will it drop? He knows, while we're still guessing or gambling.....
His approach to trading is a lot different to Richard's. He's a scalper at heart, but has to temper his skills to the current climate.He's quite happy to take half, but then "gamble" on the other half for the rest of the day, within certain limits, to exit at the end of the day. He knows that the big $$$ are to be had by holding a position , where justified, for the whole of the day... This means taking some serious pullbacks on the remaining half. A lot was spoken of order routing..... this in itself is an art. He advocates using one particular routing method over another, showing us that it was faster, had a greater capture, and would get fills before smart routing methods. He demonstrated that this could, best case, save you "slippages" of 30 cents+ as the bottom falls out of a market.
So. Overall impression? A great insight into how the other half lives. They both made what they do sound so simple , which of course it isn't. Neither made ANY claims whatsoever as to what you could make. Both emphasised that losses were the key. Clearly, they both know what they are doing, and can pass on that knowledge in a well presented and interesting day. I was asked by Richard if I was bored... I can't think why... I didn't fall asleep... Well, I certainly wasn't. Far from it. These two remind me of the Hare and the Tortoise. You will have to figure out which is who. Whether their trading success can be expressed in the same way , I have no idea.
My closing comments.
Richard showed us the trading record of one of his students from a while back, that traded part time. He is now full time. Over a 3 month period( part time), he traded 44 times, had 1 break even, 4 losers and 39 winners.
Can they teach? Yes. Are they traders? Probably. Was it value for money? Probably. I'll never get to know....

thanks CM. I was waiting for your write-up.
Don't fancy having a pop at US stocks yourself now then?
Naz is the hare me thinks.
Does this mean that all of the discussion on the older threads about whether level2 was superior to charts in spotting moves can be ended? it is.
Thanks CM

Assuming the price follows the AXE, then yes. Naz demonstrated quite clearly ( and I was a sceptic) how he would see the resolution of a support /resistance decision before it appeared on the charts. Remember we're talking less than a minute here.. BUT unquestionably, you get to jump before the rest, AND in the right direction.
Where I would disagree, is in calling certain conditions on the DOW ( but he doesn't trade that). There again, no matter how good I call it, it is STILL a guess until after the event. So I guess I'll have to concede hands down.
Iwould do US, but don't have the funds ( or the time) to trade them intraday and I would consider longer timescales a total bore. Bin there, done that. Didn't like it.

Can they teach? - no doubt about it . Really excellent presentations from both. Before I heard Naz I couldn't convince myself about the magic of Fibonacci - now I know the magic is simply that so many treaders believe in it!
Presentations clear and understandable, presenters sincere and credible.

Thanks for the replies all. As I was expecting, no negative feedback!
Naz,
I wasn't expecting anyone to reveal anything about the actual methods discussed. That would clearly be unfair to those who have paid to attend. I was just after some general feedback which I now have.
If and when I get to the stage of daytrading US stocks, Naz and Mr Charts will be top of my list.
Cheers for now.

I am already a 'student' of Richard but decided to go to the seminar on Saturday mainly as a refresher and to learn any new techniques. However I must say! I could not have summarised it better than Chartman and I agree with him 100%!! Well done for spending the time for the detailed and precise review.
Many thanks to Alan and Richard for the great day. It turned out that I did infact end up learning a few new techniques and as a bonus really enjoyed myself!!

ok - no offence intended towards naz and / or mr.c - and i'm gonna stick me neck out by posting under my real name, but how about some negative feedback?(just to spice things up) maybe they'd appreciate this as well (so they can improve even further) .....
