Come to the TradersHelpDesk 3-day seminar that includes a day of intensive focus on training you to become a Master Trader, and two days of live trading that includes putting your plan into action, with mentoring over two different days to help you refine your Master Trading Plan and prepare you for success as a Master Trader.

The Trader’s Help Desk Seminar teaches a professional approach to trading, a trading methodology, money management skills, and teaches you to manage yourself. While many basic trading concepts are discussed, this is not an introductory level course.

Most seminar clients are professionals in other fields who have several years’ trading experience and want to improve their performance, or to become successful for the first time. The seminar teaches specifics about entering and exiting trades, and then each student trades actively on a simulator for two days, so his trading can be evaluated.


Seminar Day 1 is an all day lecture, slide presentation, discussion, and questions. This session covers the whole range of the subject, from plans to indicators. The importance of treating trading as a business is emphasized, as well as the need for a Business Plan. The crucial importance of having a Trading Plan (a detailed and specific written plan for executing trades) is explained.  Students are shown how to log each trade, and to evaluate trade entries and exits in relation to their Trading Plan.  The Business Plan, Trading Plan, Trade Log, and Daily Evaluation are the critical elements of transforming the client into a professional trader.

The basics of trading are discussed in detail: markets, price, trends, volume, timeframes, charts, and indicators. Money management and trade management are central concepts to this methodology, and are explained fully.  Through good money  management and trade management, the trader  can have  excellent results without a high percentage of winning trades. There is a special emphasis on futures markets (currencies and indices), but clients are encouraged to trade any markets they prefer, with any indicators and timeframes they prefer, as long as they have a specific plan and can evaluate the results. Day 1 ends with a homework assignment:   

Write up a Trading Plan to use for live trading on Days 2 and 3.

Seminar Days 2 and 3 are active trading. Each client brings a laptop and trades on a simulator, and is coached individually by Gail throughout the trading session. The client must log each trade, comment on each trade, and evaluate the daily results.  Here is where each trader’s issues are identified.  With the help of the THD staff, each trader can understand the issues that might have prevented his progress. The issues might be technical: understanding a basic concept or indicator or a characteristic of a particular market.  Or the issues might be personal:   trading too much or too little, not keeping your stops, trading too heavily to try to make up for a loss, constantly changing trading criteria, or any of the many issues of trading psychology  experienced by traders that make them ignore their Trading Plan. Whatever the issues, they will be identified and addressed in two days of active trading.  For many, the results of this have been a dramatic change in the client’s trading ability and results.

 

In addition, each seminar participant will receive a detailed course manual, trading notebook, and personal one-on-one mentoring during the session.

Attendees must bring a laptop for the second day of training and expect to work. This is not just a sit and watch seminar. It is a hand-on, practical trading and training event.

Registration is limited to 15 participants, sign-up early!

Recent attendees state:

"THANK YOU for your workshop.  It was a great success for me.  Like I said in the workshop (a joke, not with disrespect): "I had not been able to write down on paper a trading plan in 10 years, and you expect us to write one in one night?"  (No other teachers had been able to make me do one in the past.)   And you said YES, with such demanding authority and confidence of being right.  So I had to do it.  I had to force myself to very carefully review my many charts and indicators that I thought I was so familiar with, to pin down the exact detail and nuances about how to use them properly... finally put them on paper, at 2 AM.  At 6:30 AM (Pacific) I was trading step by step according to the written down rules after 2 cups of strong coffee.  What a difference.  This time the trades set-up became so easy to see and take.  The writing down of the rules made everything so simple to see.  Relying on the rule of large numbers, no more confusing thoughts, late entries and missing trades. " -- Bill W.

"I think the instructions that I have gotten from Gail has been the most valuable I have found yet.

She puts what is important in trading in plain language and hands you the big picture with the right emphasis on what is important. Hint, It is not the squiggly lines that will make you money.

She is the real trader." -- Bryan

Gail, thanks for the great seminar. I've learned alot over the years but never really was able to put it all together until learning from Gail. Learning from her made everything click together. No one teaches price action but Gail. Everyone else teaches their indicators and the truth is every indicator lags price movement. -- Martin

The seminar was terrrific! During the whole seminar, all the attendees were involved with the trading methdology. You got such a lot of input." -- Stefan

THANK YOU and Harry for the wonderful training. It is refreshing to meet someone in trading education who practices what they preach and what they teach. Your methods are easy to understand and duplicate. I am confident my husband and I will be very successful using what we learned the past two days. -- Evelyn

I have worked with Gail for over a year now through mentoring sessions and her seminar. For those who choose to work with her, you will understand what I mean when I say, she truly teaches you HOW TO TRADE BY UNDERSTANDING THE MARKETS!

I am grateful to Gail for helping me stay on course and teaching me the fundamentals that have served me well and continue to do so. I give her a lot of credit for giving me the tools from which to build the ability to trade successfully. --HB
