About Us

We are an educational firm dedicated to educating traders on how to read and benefit from price and price movement.  Our mission statement is to provide low-cost vocational type training focused on day-trading the ES (S&P 500 e-mini futures contract).  This mission stems from the belief that trading education should be delivered in an ethical, conscientious manner that provides the highest value to our students.

We recognize that economic conditions have changed for many individuals and it is our goal to provide a viable alternative to those that desire to support themselves financially through their trading activity.  Compassion is one of our guiding forces.  At the heart of everything we do is the realization that through this education, people have the power to change their lives.  This is our driving passion.

Our trading philosophy is simple; basically price tells us everything we need to know.  If we understand price movement, then we can predict in advance where price might go or stop.  As traders, we make our money on price movement; more importantly, where price stops or turns around.  We are not prisoners of momentum indicators.  We are all about price analysis.  We teach building confluence channels and looking for trade setups inside of the confluence channels or other significant areas on the chart.  To us, the volume and price relationship is key.  We use those for defining risk and entering and exiting trade setups.

We are very aware of how the ES changes from day to day and our methodology adapts quickly to the changes from day to day.  We understand that as the market flows, we must be able to adapt and respond accordingly.
Our offering is two-fold, a public and a private forum, focused on the analysis of price action and charts on various financial instruments.  The public forum will be delivered through a public blog.  The private forum is for our students and includes daily educational videos, market commentary, and ongoing live web-based training.

In summary, we believe that if you dedicate yourself to learning how to read charts as we teach, and learn to apply our price analysis methodology and trading discipline, that you can achieve your trading goals.  Contact us with any questions.
