The following are
resources (free and paid) that I use myself and have found to be of high value,
or which have come highly recommended to me by people I trust. You won't find the usual internet 'hype'.
Of course, just because I like them doesn't mean
they're right for you. Please conduct a full due diligence investigation to be
sure these products meet your needs, before considering their use.
And be sure
to first read my
Disclaimer page, as (1) I cannot guarantee the applicability of these sites
to your needs (obviously), and (2) I may receive a referral commission for some
of the products or courses listed on this site, if you decide to purchase their
product or service. There's more info on the disclaimer page, but also feel free
to contact me if you have any questions.

these traders for a few years - Davin Clarke and Alexander
Tzavaras. And in 2010 they joined forces to launch a new trading
program. Highly recommended.

Wyckoff / Volume Spread Analysis |
- Although I don't trade pure
Wyckoff / VSA methodology, the principles underlying my strategy
can very much be seen within the Wyckoff and VSA material.
- I recommend studying anything
and everything you can find on Wyckoff and VSA. Some great
starting points:
- Please note: I have not used the
TradeGuider software or joined the VSA Club - recommendations
here are based solely on the high quality of their other
material and their Best of Wyckoff seminars. Conduct your full
due diligence checks.

download of "The Law of Charts"
- His books are great - I have not
reviewed the live mentoring though.

Futures Trading - How To |
- It's hard to find good material
on the concepts of supply / demand and price action analysis and
trading, so it was a great delight to find this gem from a
trader named Daniel.
- I contacted Daniel and he said,
"It has took me more than 5 months to put up all the info. I did
it because I needed all the material I have learned in a place
where I can access it directly, so why not a web?"
- Great plan... as it helps the
rest of us as well.
- Schedule a couple of hours to
work through the pages on the left hand side menu. You won't be
disappointed.

slideshows on the
