What’s a No Brainer Trade?

-Based on the premise of areas of heavy order flows, or simply stated, large, key areas of support and resistance which are very obvious areas for price reversal or continuation of momentum.

We teach strategies all based around support and resistance levels, primarily, but only have interest in (naturally) things that work, and are proven to do so over and over again. Through our Live Trading Room and guest contributors there is always something new to be said. Our main goal is to share ideas that challenge readers to continuously sharpen skills and gain an edge better than the majority.

About Posted Trades

I post trades for the simple reason of proving that the methods we use here work effectively. This site does not post 'signals'. In fact, I think I loathe the word 'signals' alltogether. I think of posted trades in more of the context of a process that it just part of a learning curve, not to be taken as a buy or sell 'signal'.

My main goal is to help build self-sustaining traders. There is only one way anyone will become successful at trading over the long run, and its through his or her own hard work and efforts. If I can help speed up the process, all the better. Posted trades are simply my own take on current price action, and as you will see, some of them work better than others.

I encourage anyone that reads this website not to rely on others for their direct trading actions.

“Thanks for the Blog! How Can I Help?”

Well, since you asked.....sharing articles on this site through the social media icons found around the posts (Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo!, Digg, StumbleUpon, etc.) help it out tremendously. If you have a free second please help spread the word of what we do here. Some of the options (eg StumbleUpon) can even be done anonymously.

Want More?

We have a basic subscription list where we’ll send you immediate notifications on updates to pending trades or commentaries. Don’t worry, you won’t be emailed every time a change is made. It’s not our goal to flood your inbox. Also, you can subscribe via RSS, if you prefer. Both options are found in the upper right hand corner. I am also on Twitter, Facebook, and a contributor to Seeking Alpha.

I think I’ve covered it all but just one more thing….

All of the information posted on this site is based upon my personal opinions and observations derived through years of research and active investing/trading. You should not personally invest in these markets if you do not understand the complexities of the current financial situation; we are in a time like no other and current conditions require strict attention to detail and a well-rounded perception of the markets in which we participate. Should you have any questions, we have a live trading room open for discussions as well as a variety of articles discussing our basic strategy. In addition, I encourage you to read, read and read as much as you can in regards to these markets and how they interrelate.

Thank you!
