Feb 8th Recap: $2,000 Available – NYC Blizzard Edition

Blizzard in New YorkBlizzard in New York

Last but not least is the final recap for the first full week of February. The week was truly a tale of extremes. Something that comes very familiar from visiting India and living in the country for just over two months. Friday brought about the blizzard of the century and aside from being the end of the week it seems as if the blizzard is what took the volume of the market. The blizzard did not end up being that bad in […]

Feb 7th Recap: Over $7,000 Available – The Tale of the Pro Trades

BarranquillaMr. M tearing up the dance floor at the Carnival in Barranquilla

It has been nothing but extremes in the first full week of February. From a $8,000 day on Monday followed by a $1,125 on Tuesday and now a $7,000 day on the 7th. While those numbers sound fantastic we don’t think of the market in terms of dollars and cents. Those people that trade with and for the DTA Trading Army think in terms of points and ticks. The concept here is to understand that the ultimate focus is to make the […]

It is moving day! After a 22 hour journey from the extremes of India we have finally arrived in one of the financial capital of the world, New York City. It’s been a unique few years being able to day trade from exotic locations like Brazil, Colombia, India, and even Argentina. We were able to day trade from London when we hosted our first day trading retreat (seminar). We are now at one of the largest and iconic financial centers in the […]

February 4th Recap: Over $8,000 - Last Day In India Edition

At last the market recap for February 4th. It has been quite a busy week with our move from India to the United States. We will be spending the next few weeks in New York City attending the traders Expo at the Marriot Marquis near Times Square. It was my last day in India and it was a bittersweet ending. Normally when we start living overseas we immediately procure an apartment. Due to the inconsistencies of service, mainly internet and electricity, it […]

17+ Point Day ($8,000+): The Last Hoorah

17+ Point Day ($8,000+): The Last Hoorah

Don’t have enough time to do a full write up and video for the recap today but I wanted to share the chart. This is the primary thing that we try to do at the Day Trading Academy is to identify market movements and capitalize when the market is moving well. There were two fundamental movements to identify today that indicated the trend to the downside was going to occur. By being able to identify it we just ride the wave so to […]

One of the things that was always in the back of our minds is how we were going to balance day trading & traveling. If it wasn’t for the likes of Paul and the other students we wouldn’t be able to continue living the lifestyle of traveling around the world day trading. This was the first thought since we posted the very first market recap on the site. We share this because starting last week we have had nothing but students run […]

Jan 29th Recap: Over $5,700 Available

India CraftsmenshipWe call her Nefertiti, she will be greeting traders at our Singapore trading center

I really should travel on Indian trains more often. One of the things I love about day trading in India is the fact that we are a gorgeous 10.5 hours ahead of the market. This means that my mornings involve lots of snoring and anything else one can concoct on a budding 3 month adventure through India. It was quite an experience taking the train and the highest class available to book didn’t have privacy, comfortable pillows, nor a bathroom that smelled like glorious popery. […]

Day Trading In Brazil: Daily Life In Rio De Janeiro

Para gliding in Rio De JaneiroPara gliding in Rio De Janeiro

Day Trading in Brazil was one of the most unique experiences that I could ever have.  Of all of the countries I have had the opportunity to visit and trade from, Brazil by far is one of my favorites. Rio De Janeiro is one of the most unique cities that one could experience in the world. We started by renting a penthouse in an exclusive neighborhood in the Santa Theresa district.  It was something else taking a train to our front door […]
