Getting your trading started the right way – brand new traders beware

Trading can be daunting to learn with so much information for those with no experience. This is why it is imperative to have the right information from the start on day one. If you are new to trading and don't really know where to start, this book is right for you. Think about it; why go risk thousands of dollars in the market before you are ready? Trading Basics for complete Beginners can help you keep it simple and filter the huge amount of information out there down to only what you need to know right away and then can work towards adding more information and studies as you go.

This is not a get rich quick business. You can become well off, have financial security and freedom to do anything you want in this business, and you can do it anywhere in the world. It takes time and patience to learn it right and it involves a lot of waiting around till the market comes to you and gives you what you want. Yes that's right, you can actually make the market do exactly what you want.

Trading Basics for complete Beginners can help you see if trading is right for you. Learn what works for you before risking a dime. All you need to risk at this juncture is your time and energy learning your new investing and trading business inside and out, can you do that? The money will come on its own trust me on that!! You can take that to the bank!

The markets are dynamic, and it is imperative to understand how to trade in all type of conditions in the live market when you are your using real money. Be patient, take your time, and enjoy the process as you learn investing and trading. There is no short-cut, and there aren’t any guarantees. Be realistic and follow the process steps and advice in Trading Basics for complete Beginners to increase your odds of being successful.

The four things I tell my new traders are the most important to learn to make money and be consistently profitable doing it on a daily basis are: risk and money management, psychology of investing and trading real money versus doing it on demo, knowing how to read price action on a chart and finally knowing how to see supply and demand value areas on a price chart. All the rest of the hype is just BS and a complete waste of valuable time and energy and is not realistic to use when it comes to live market real money investing and trading.

There is a certain progression of steps that every new investor and trader need to know and study and must follow to become a consistently profitable professional investor and trader. Unfortunately, no one tells them in the beginning that most of the information they need is basic and is mostly common sense. Should any brand new investor and trader decide to try to side step any part of the proper education and training and try to go into the live financial markets before you have become consistent on a demo account for however long it takes you to do that, you stand the chance of your money train going wildly off the tracks and losing all of your capital.

No one wants to have that happen however it is the one of the biggest mistakes a brand new investor and trader can make. I have just told you one of the very most important things not to do as far as trying to side step any part of the proper trading education so don’t do it!

I have written Trading Basics for complete Beginners in a way I feel the progression of information should be learned to be able to go into the live markets with confidence and no fear. The introductory principles in Trading Basics for complete Beginners can be used in any market on any time frame it does not matter; this is what makes the information so valuable.

I found that the progression all investors and traders need to go through is virtually the same for everyone who enters the business whether you have an MBA from an Ivy league school which, by the way, you do not need to become very successful and rich in this business or you are self-taught like myself.

The core of what is presented in Trading Basics for complete Beginners is how ALL markets work which is on the principle of supply and demand. There is no mention of anything other than what needs to be learned from the start of your trading/investing career and no TA is utilized. It is learning supply and demand investing and trading and price action. That’s what you need to focus on from the start if you want to be successful right away.

A lot of trading books teach a top down or a bottom up approach, how about a right way approach, and the right way from day one. Mostly all of the trading books teach this business not only wrong but they teach it unrealistically. Why would you want to learn this way? If you are thinking that trading and investing in the live market with your hard earned real money is going to be easy and you are going to make millions of dollars doing it you are in for a rude and very expensive awakening. Don't get me wrong you can and will some make money every day in the live markets perhaps LOTS OF IT if you do what it says in this book. Nothing in the market is guaranteed. It's about putting all the probabilities of having a positive outcome in your favor.

While I was doing my learning and education I spent a lot of time on studying and learning trading, reading charts and indicators. All I needed to look at was right there on the chart in front of my eyes all the time every day all day, price action, it does not lie, it cannot, It does precisely the opposite it tells you where the supply and demand in the market is and thus where to make your move.

For 3 years straight, I spent days, night’s weekend’s holidays on studying the aspects of trading that I thought, and that all the educational books tell you will make a better trader. I can’t disagree more now with most of that information. Was learning it a waste of time? No absolutely not! The road I took was an enlightening one and I learned a great amount about how geo-economics and geo-politics work and how the world really runs and works, SO no it was not a waste of my time at all, I love to learn and in the course of my education in trading and investing have become an expert at finding data.

There are no short cuts as I said, and what you have to learn and study and learn can take quite a while. It all depends on you and how much time and effort you are willing to put in to learn what needs to be known to be a successful market participant. Like I said, for me it was days, nights, weekends and even some holidays. I just wanted to do it that bad; it takes a lot of dedication and time.

When you think you are going to try to shortcut it just remember there are sharks (we’ll get to them later) that are looking for your life blood and hard earned capital in the live market waiting for you to take that shortcut so they can take all your money.

Who I wrote this book for and why I wrote it

Brand new (newbie) traders all make the same mistakes over and over because they don‘t know any better, now you do. Newbie traders tend to do what everyone else is doing and study what everyone else is studying thus they have the same results and failures as everyone else. Don’t be that trader!

New traders also spend waaaay too much time on looking for the magical combination of indicators, settings and colors they think will show them something that is going to help them make more money. There are no shortcuts or bells that go ding to tell you to enter the right position so stop looking.

If you can just take the time to read this information in this book, let it sink in and then continue on your educational journey you will have done yourself a huge favor and also begun to give yourself the needed edge to succeed in this business and be able to start trading live on as little as $500 capital to start with.

The reason Trading Basics for complete Beginners is unique is that it is going to tell you about who your competition is and how you can beat them, what you need to study first that will make you rich fast, where you need to go to get consistently profitable quickly, when you should and should not be in the live market and how about the other information you need to know to be able to trade and invest in today's financial markets (or any tradable market) with confidence and zero fear.

I wrote Trading Basics for complete Beginners for all beginning aspiring investors and traders who are just getting their head around doing the day trading and swing trading business. Everyone has their own ideas of what they think day trading and swing trading are and what it can do for them. Trading Basics for complete Beginners is for beginners and will detail many of the things that a brand new trader must learn not to do before they can become consistently profitable in the live markets. You’re heard the saying just say no to drugs, just say no to day trading and you and your account will be waaaaay ahead of the game to start off. Don’t say I didn’t warn you, OK, continue with your insanity and read this entire book to give yourself a fighting chance.

Picture yourself throwing all your startup capital into the bon fire at the party you’ll throw for yourself for starting your new trading business up and watch it burn up in smoke and flames right before your very eyes. You smell that? That’s all your money burning up because you went to fast or did not learn what to do the right way from the first day of your business and did not develop the needed edge to compete at the highest level. Trust me when I say, the sharks in the market will chomp up your trading account without hesitation. We’ll get to the sharks a little later on in the book so you know who they are and what they can do to you as a brand new beginner trader.

This business isn’t really an H&P type of business, what is H&P you might be asking, hoping and praying. You don’t need a rosary you need an edge. I’m not going to sugar coat it, this business is an ugly place for an untrained and underfunded beginner. There are very bad people in the live market who are looking to take all of your money from you, and they will should you not be prepared properly to go to work in the live markets. Again, don’t say I haven’t tried to warn you.

You absolutely need to have a competitive edge in the markets, and you must have it before you do anything in the live markets with real money, I said you need an edge not a hopium pill or a rosary. I will have some other books out soon that detail how to develop your edge for making money in today’s live markets, I encourage you to read them all as soon as they come out if you are in this business to make money. If you run with the ‘sheeple of the herd’ you can be assured to not have any edge. They all study the same information and are all programmed the same way to lose money repeatedly.

My hope from this book is that you understand how important it is to have a competitive edge when putting your hard earned money at risk in the markets. Each day, the wealth from trader accounts is transferred from those without an edge into the accounts of those who have developed that all needed important winning edge. Which one do you want to be?

Trading Basics for complete Beginners is for people who want to start their own business and become investors and traders in today’s financial markets, but have zero experience and are looking for the best quality information to get them started. If you pay attention to the information in this book you can avoid becoming one of the ‘sheeple of the herd.’ Don’t get yourself fleeced up beyond account recovery (FUBAR)!

There are only two groups of people who are doing business in the markets, the professionals and the retail investors and traders. The retail group includes both wanna be traders and also brand new traders with zero experience at all who are just trying to be cool and say they work in the market.

Use Trading Basics for complete Beginners as an overview or a guide if you will, for what to study and learn first to become consistently profitable from day trading. I give you concise information as to what to learn first and what to look for as far as further information is concerned. I tell you only the most critical things to learn first because those are absolutely the most important and the ones that will make you money right away if you do them. This book is written to provide straightforward, easy to understand and easy to apply advice, tips and techniques that can be the backbone of any successful traders success in the financial markets.

Instead of trying to read Trading Basics for complete Beginners fast I recommend that you go slow and look up and search for the main things the book talks about that will help you to become successful right away. Skip over anything that is important and it could for sure cause you to lose some money. No one wants that now, right?

Trading Basics for complete Beginners will be an incredible read for someone who has zero knowledge or someone who has some basic experience who is struggling with their trading and investing. I purposely do not put any charts or graphs in this book and I will tell you why. This is a very good book for the novice as it is easy to absorb information. Since you’re new all you need to do at this point is try to absorb what is said here.

Trading Basics for complete Beginners is about giving you the best information you need to really give you a fighting chance at becoming successful in this business. I try to keep industry jargon to a minimum and give links to locations where more education and training information can be found online and for free. You will have plenty of time to be wowed by pretty colored charts and graphs trust me on that!

Trading Basics for complete Beginners cuts right to the core and lays out a progressive foundation of principles on which you can indeed begin swing trading for high profit as long as you have done the education and training the right way from the first day.

Here is the first tip I can give you. Don’t waste time on learning things that will not help you make money in the live market. You don’t need to know the history of the financial markets and what all the old time guys who made a lot of money did to make their loot. It’s not even the same market or economics as it was when they were in the live market so don’t waste any valuable education and learning time on learning that information.

I encourage you to begin to learn only what will make you money in today’s markets. If you would like to go back and study all that history once you have become consistently profitable on a daily basis so be it. If and when you do become successful in this business you will have a lot of time on your hands anyway because at that juncture trading is boring and it is a lot of waiting around.

Learning to be a great investor and trader does not have to be a long, hard road—trust me on this. I had to unlearn a lot of things that are of no use to anyone in the live markets. I don’t want you make those same errors. Let’s try to cut down your learning curve so that you can start making real money right from the start of your new investing and trading business.

When you are done reading Trading Basics for complete Beginners you will have an excellent basic explanation of what and what not to do before you even study anything or do any kind of education. The information in Trading Basics for complete Beginners will put you on the fast track to becoming a successful self-directed investor and trader with very little money invested other than the cost of this book, learning it Harvard or Columbia business school would cost one hundred thousand dollars or more.

I wrote Trading Basics for complete Beginners for the benefit of those who want to explore investing and trading but have no experience, because I was incensed at how trading is taught in most books and courses so wrong and unrealistically. I have even heard industry people say that it is done intentionally so that the smart money can continue to profit. All they give you is unrealistic information that will not help you in the live markets using real money. Why would you want to learn something the wrong way from the start that could cause you to lose your hard-earned money? To me that’s just crazy.

As a professional investor and trader, I felt it was time to show that most learning by new people in the business can be very easy if they learn what to do the right way from the very start of their education process. What this book is going to tell you is how not to make the mistakes that most new investors and traders make that cause them to lose money right away.

The market is not a big secret and all of the information you need to make a trading decision is right out in the open. If you know where to find the information and know what to look for you can and will make some money every day in the market provided you are looking at the right information.

If anything, Trading Basics for complete Beginners is giving you the harsh reality as to what it will take for you to actually be able to make real money in the live market and be consistently profitable doing it. Honestly, all of us in the markets who are already doing it for real and using real money are waiting for all the new people to coming into the market so we can continue to profit.

Trading Basics for complete Beginners can help you keep it simple and filter the huge amount of information out there down to only what you need to know right away and then can work towards adding more information and studies as you go. My philosophy is to start small and build on success have limited exposure while you hone your skills, then progress as you become more competent. 

You can use Trading Basics for complete Beginners and the references, suggestions and tips in it to go further into your educational studies of the markets and there dynamics. Knowing market dynamics is going to be critical for you to have the winning edge you will need to be a successful market participant. By studying what this book suggests you will not become one of the 97% of the sheeple of the herd.

This business is no joke. I always say there are people in the live market who will walk over dead bodies to get paid and make money so make no mistake they are in there to take all of your money. They see you, they know what mistakes you are going to make over and over and over again. This is how they get paid from the sheeple of the herd.

So who are these sheeple of the herd I keep talking about, YOU, that’s who!

Sheeple of the herd! Sounds like a B horror movie or a cult doesn’t it? The sheeple of the herd as I call them are the retail investors and traders from around the world who all study the same thing, do the same thing, and trade the same way as everyone else. They all trade from the same charts and make the same mistakes
