Cry For Argentina But Don’t Invest There

Casa Rosada in Buenos AiresCasa Rosada in Buenos Aires

Thinking about investing in Argentina? Argentina has everything that is needed to be rich and prosperous except a government that respects and encourages private investment and development. The population of Argentina stands at over 42 million which means that it can sustain a strong internal consumer market as well as an export driven economy with sufficient investment. Although close to 1 out of 3 residents of the nation reside in the capital of Buenos Aires there is sufficient population spread throughout the […]

Marcello Arrambide in MedellinWe spent Christmas here overlooking the city of Copacabana (north of Medellin)

Everything is coming together with day trading centers. Our long term plans have been to train locals in our centers around the world. For the last 5 years we have been able to day trading and travel in over 80 countries. Now it is time to give others the opportunity to live their dreams through day trading. Colombians and others from emerging third world nations make a fraction of what we are able to make in the markets. In Colombia, university graduates […]

Weekly Investment Insights: Bring on 2014

Weekly Investment Insights: Bring on 2014

One can expect a rebound in a range of commodities because of the rapid decline in price in the last quarter of 2013. Economic growth although smaller throughout major areas of the world will put an upward pressure on prices while over supply in many sectors will exert a downward pressure.  So except for a few commodities; prices should be somewhat stable in 2014.

Dec 26th Master Trader Recap: Geezy Pulls 2.5 Pts on Lowest Volume Of The Year

Editors note: One of the things I love most about our traders is the amount of unforgiving courage they always show. It wasn’t enough that one of our master traders Craig, code name Geezy, make money the after Christmas. No sir. He also was able to make well over 2 points on the lowest volume day of the year. This speaks volumes to the ability of our traders to be able to read the market no matter the condition.  Another one of […]

Dec 20th Master Trader Recap: Ice Man Cleans Up! 7 Pts – $3300 After Commissions

Dec 20th Master Trader Recap: Ice Man Cleans Up! 7 Pts - $3300 After Commissions

Editors Note: One of things I love about Ice Man is that he is absolutely fearless when it comes to trading. We have used his trades as examples many times in our classes. One of the most amazing things about him is that he went live during the holiday season and was able to iron out continued profits.  Once we learn how to read the market we are able to easily adapt to it and make money in anything the market throws […]

Master Trader Dec 16th Recap: Dr. Z Kills It With 8+ Points

Master Trader Dec 16th Recap: Dr. Z Kills It With 8+ Points

 Started the day right with a bowl of Cap’n Crunch and cup of coffee.  With that great run to the upside I was looking to exploit it every way possible.  When it pivoted high and started to test the same highs I started to expect some consolidation before a continuation. In the past I had found myself afraid of jumping in for fear that it might be a sign of slowdown but as I’ve learned you trade with the trend and with […]

Master Trader Dec 12th Recap: 4 trades, 4+ points, 40 minutes

Master Trader Dec 12th Recap: 4 trades, 4+ points, 40 minutes

It is a contract roll-over Thursday once again… time flies when one is having fun :-). Being a market “Hitman” is in no small part about timing and ruthlessness of execution, but the volatility this fall has been somewhat disappointing. That is why, yesterday’s movement got me almost as excited as my coming trip to Colombia! Having said that, however, I was facing the dilemma of trading a contract roll-over day or missing out on some good follow-through movement. Tricky situation, I […]
