Jim,
It will improve your market analysis and understanding of the markets. Will it
improve your bottom line? For most, regardless of how good their market analysis is,
the line "a funny thing happened on the way to calling my broker" applies. The bottom
line is a function of how good a trader you are.
If you are already profitable, this should make you more profitable. If you have never
had a profitable year, you may have some issues to contend with that will take more
than this course to fix. Trading
requires discipline, robotic like execution, and an excellent sense of risk
management. Not everyone has these talents or what it takes to develop them. However,
it regard to helping your trading, I have
28 years of trading experience, including 12 years experience as a member and market
maker on the CBOE. I also traded on the CBOT floor. I can usually diagnose a trading
problem in less than one minute. Then it is up the the trader to remedy the problem.
Any valuable trading methodology at best is analagous to offering Pete Sampras a
better tennis racket. He will probably win without it, but this will make it easier,
therefore save time, and help him win the really close ones. Every incremental edge
adds up. After you get a few of these "edges" in your toolbox, you have something
really powerful.
Edgingly,
Norman
