Trader Discussions and Facilitated Q&A

 
Ken Calhoun, 
President and Founder

Q. What will I get from your seminar that I can't find elsewhere?A: Rather than review the basics of online trading, you will learn dynamic new advanced Nasdaq day trading strategies for taking profits out of the market at the brand-new Advanced Day Trading Workshop. It is practical, and fast paced. You learn step by step how to set up your system and execute trades using our scanning strategies, chart pattern recognition and trade management techniques. It's a powerful combination not available anywhere else.

Q. What should I do to prepare for the seminar?A: Since we are not covering elementary "how to read a level 2 box" type topics, we ask that you familiarize yourselves with basic/intermediate trading tools ahead of time in preparation for this session. Bring your questions, and be ready to learn.It will not be over your head, or filled with jargon. It will be concise, well explained, and interactive. This is a forum for you to come and learn the "mechanics" of successful trading. There is no flash and glitter, no jargon, no fluff, no comedy or hype. You will learn solid, consistent, and practical Nasdaq day trading techniques that have proven to be effective.

Q. Why is it so inexpensive?A: Because my goal has always been to making professional quality Nasdaq daytrading training affordable and reasonable, I am making this seminar available at a much-discounted introductory price of less than 1k.This is a special introductory price for my seminars. They will never be this inexpensive again. I'll be in the Anaheim area, having traveled there to present at the online trading expo. So, it makes sense to offer a seminar to my traders who've been asking for one this past year. Keeping the price low is my way of saying thanks to all for your loyalty and patience as I've built up the DTU site, to make it affordable for all.Quality and professionalism, along with specific trader learning objectives, is geared to surpass what you've seen elsewhere, much of which is fluff and/or designed to sell other follow-on services. Our approach is different. I will not be mentioning or offering anything else for sale at this session - it's all focused on helping you learn how to trade, that's it. I think traders are smart enough to know the truth of the situation, and will appreciate a genuine, authentic advanced daytrader training workshop. The content coverage and quality will be specific, deep, practical and interactive. You'll learn many new techniques for the trading market in August. We hope you'll make a smart investment in this attractively priced 2-day advanced trader training seminar, to build up your trading skills and help you be a more successful trader. Due to the anticipated popularity at this price, you are encouraged to register soon.

Q. Do I need to bring my laptop, or any software? A: No, since we're focusing on step-by-step advanced techniques and we're not covering beginner materials. I am not going to have people hunched over a lot of pcs looking at L2 boxes, listening to platitudes like "see the market maker on the left window everyone? - that means he's bidding for a stock..." No beginner fluff here. This session will have plenty of chart pattern handouts and worksheets to learn from, in addition to watching the main projection screen. You'll need to bring a pencil/pen to annotate your charts. You will also have plenty of opportunities to participate in our interactive trader table activities. The focus here is on learning and doing.

Q. Do we get to eat? A: Of course. A well-fed trader is a happy trader! We will provide coffee, a complete lunch both days, and snacks.

Q. How about door prizes? A: Gee give an inch and..... lol. Sure, I always give away door prizes. Having trained over 28,000 people worldwide, I have found that food and gifts are always appreciated by the audience. I'll even bring some Hawaii gifts for everyone. :-)

Q. Will I really learn new and useful techniques at the Advanced Day Trading Workshop? A: We certainly expect so! I will pack all the pro tips and coaching that is possible into two intensive days of trader training. We will go over all the practical, subtle pro signals I use, and answer all questions in an interactive format, to help you really learn more consistent and careful trading techniques. Our daytrades are usually roundtrips in less than 10-20 minutes max, and we look to take consistent +1/2 to +1.25 type trades out of Nasdaq tech stocks, primarily in the semiconductor, software and other volatile sectors.My goal in developing this seminar is to fill the vacuum left by the current crop of overly-expensive fluff seminars, instead giving you an intensive two-day training session in all the indicators, the methods, and the step by step "what you need to do first, second , and third" to be able to execute your trades more effectively.

Q. What if I have any other questions for you? A: Email me and I'll do my best to answer your questions quickly. Time is important here, as the seminar is coming up this August 20-21, 2001 just a couple of months away. I hope to see you all there! Good trading,

Ken
