What’s New in Blocks Trader - Monday, May 19th 8-9pm ET

The webinar will be put on by a friend of mine, Worden’s Training Director, Craig Shipman. Craig has educated many thousands of traders on TeleChart (which I’ve used for almost a decade) and now Blocks (which I’m integrating more and more into my research). Needless to say, I have no doubt at all it will be worth attending for some tips & tricks on using this amazing charting software.

I wrote long ago how Blocks would “revolutionize the way stock chartists and researchers tinker with data, because it allows the user to combine data sources all in one place - on the code level.” I continue to be impressed with the way Worden is improving and updating the program, which is no surprise given the tremendous success they’ve had with TeleChart for so long.

To register and attend the Webinar:
Visit Worden.com
Click the Blocks icon at the top of the page
The center of the next page will have the Webinar info.

Have a great weekend!

I’m honored to be appearing in the March ‘08 issue of Stocks & Commodities Magazine as the feature interview, as it’s a great publication that I’ve read for years. They have interviewed some great traders over the years whom I’ve learned a great deal from, so when asked about my interest in being included I didn’t even hesitate. Here’s a snippet of the interview on the S&C website, but you can buy the full issue at any major bookstore.

To those of you S&C readers who arrived here as a result of that interview, let me welcome you to the blog! For a quick tour of the blog, this post is a good place to begin as it hits some of the highlights and favorite posts.

Thanks for stopping by to visit, and I hope you’ll return often. Enjoy the long holiday weekend!

Just wanted to say thanks for stopping by to those of you who heard my interview at TraderInterviews.com this week. I thoroughly enjoyed the visit with Tim Bourquin as he runs an excellent site and knows a lot about the trading industry. I also hope that you found something useful from hearing about my approach to the market during my interview.

Those of you who haven’t visited TraderInterviews.com should check it out, there’s lots of great info provided by quite a few traders of varying styles and timeframes. Needless to say, I am honored and humbled to have been invited to participate!

While you’re here, I should point you to a post I put up last week when I welcomed Barron’s readers. That post outlines some key posts here at the blog and explains a bit about what I do and my trading style. It’s a great way to get an overview of how I operate. I’m glad you’re here and hope you’ll return frequently in the future.

Happy Thanksgiving to all, and I will be back next week with some new posts to share here. See you then!

At times in life, events and people come along to put everything into perspective for us, and that’s particularly true for us as traders. The flickering numbers and charts on our screens often become all too important to us until something else reminds us what life’s really all about. Whether trading is a hobby or a profession for you, I’m sure you’ve had weeks where your trading results dictated your moods, and others during which you never even thought about trading because it’s been farther down the priority list. The past few days for me can definitely be described as the latter!

In a couple more days I’ll make the transition back to full-time trader and you’ll find some market-related content showing up here again, but at the moment I’m loving the opportunity to tend to my personal life and adjust to my new role as a father! What an experience!
