It’s Go Time!
May 13, 2010 at 10:12 am
Earlier this week, I apologized for my absence and explained why I’ve been so quiet on the blog for the past few months.
Today is the Day
It’s here and it’s ready for you right now.
The Advanced Trading Course I have been so hard at work creating is now up and running.
Here’s the shortcut link to learn more for those of you who are in a hurry: Advanced Trading Course.
For those of you who are curious what it involves, let me give you a quick rundown right here.
The Basic Trading Course brings beginners up to speed on all things trading, moving them beyond the buy-and-hope investor mentality and into the modern age of being a self-directed trader.
The Advanced Trading Course takes things well beyond the basics, covering all the specifics that today’s trader needs to have a handle on to compete in today’s environment.
Key timeframes like day trading, swing trading, and position trading are all covered in the course, including which conditions are ideal for each style, and a host of strategies which can be used for each of them.
For example, in the day trading segment, I show you my most profitable trading method for the past year, when and where to find those setups, and how I manage them.
That method alone was responsible for big profits I made in last week’s market mess, as I posted my best trading day in almost 2 years.
And that’s just one of the many which are covered. Here are some others…
- What my trading routine looks like
- When I employ various styles of trading
- How I track my progress
- When I know it’s time to back down my size or build it up
- Execution tactics
- How to locate trades
- Managing risk properly
- Adding to winning trades the right way
- Protecting profits
- Much more…
I’ve put everything I know into this course, so that you can access my experience and expertise.
As a full-time trader now for more than a decade, I’ve seen it all, and I’ve been fortunate enough to survive and thrive as a trader. All of the adjustments I’ve made, all the learning I’ve done, and all the mistakes I’ve endured have made me the trader I am today…and I’ve put all of it into this video-on-demand course. I literally left nothing out.
So… if you’re seeing a disconnect between your level of passion for trading and the results you’ve been getting, head over and check out the Advanced Trading Course at TheStockBanditUniversity.com.
It’ll help you understand how to approach any market conditions you face, put together the right plan of attack, and execute it like a pro.
(Around here, we refer to that as knowing how to ‘Trade Like A Bandit.’ You’ll see what I mean in the course).

An Open Apology
May 12, 2010 at 12:45 pm
I just crawled out of my cave. At least it feels that way. And it probably seems that way from your perspective, so I owe you an apology.
The regular articles and free videos just haven’t made it into the rotation for the past couple of months. Truth is…the free stuff goes first when there’s a time shortage.
For the past couple of months, I’ve been working my tail off on a brand new resource that has just required a lot of, well, all of my extra time. Hence the reason I haven’t been putting out very much of the great content you’ve grown accustomed to seeing here for the past 5+ years.
But there’s good news – on a couple of fronts.
Good News #1
First, that resource I’ve been working on…it’s DONE. That’s not only a relief to me to have such a huge project behind me, but it also means you’ll be able to access it this week.
To give you a little background on it, TheStockBandit University was initially just a Basic course on trading, which is ideal for beginner traders. Those who are wanting to make the transition from ‘long-term investor’ to ‘trader’ can shorten their learning curve BIG TIME through the Basic course. I’m really proud of the Basic course, and it continues to deliver for those who enroll in it.
But…that doesn’t really help many of you who have been trading for a while. The Basic course really is below the level of experience which most of you have already reached.
Well, the feedback and the response was so great from the Basic course, that it was only logical to build on it – not only to take the beginners to the next level, but to aid current traders in the areas which they struggle so much with.
Students of the Basic course now have a grasp of the fundamentals of trading, but they need more. And subscribers of my stock newsletter, readers right here on the blog, and regular viewers of the Trading Videos also have been wanting some upper-level education to get their trading to the next level.
Some higher learning.
So, a few months ago, I set out to create an Advanced Trading Course for those who are already traders, but who still aren’t getting the results they desire. Like the Basic course, the Advanced course is a video-on-demand training course which can be utilized as an ongoing resource. The difference is the content of the course, as it’s not for the beginner.
I wrote out the course plans, the lessons (merely 150 pages of single-spaced typing), hit the studio and recorded them, and the course is now ready to go live this week.
Which brings me to the second bit of good news…
Good News #2
I now have a LOT more free time to tend to the things I used to spend time on. I will again be putting out more free videos, writing more articles here on the blog, and of course providing more features to the membership at TheStockBandit.com.
For the past few months, I devoted my days to my trading and to my family. Extra time (early mornings, late nights, and weekends) I had went straight to developing curriculum for the Advanced course. But now that it’s completed, that extra time will once again be utilized for the things you came to know me for…
Quality posts.
Trade ideas.
Lessons.
Video reviews.
All the good stuff.
So, I hope you’ll accept my apology for largely being absent these past couple of months on the blog, and I hope you’ll return often and give me a chance to continue helping you.
I’ll have another post here when the Advanced Trading Course is made available to the public, so don’t disappear!
Whether you decide to register for the course (it does come with a guarantee), or you simply stick around here in hopes of finding more good stuff from me, you won’t be disappointed. Win/win!
Trade Like A Bandit!

The character of the market changed significantly last week, highlighted by Thursday’s all-out crash. Four consecutive declines left the major averages with losses on the week of 5-8%, and the dip-buyers who have shown so much confidence in recent months have disappeared completely.
At this point, stocks could go either way. We’ve fallen far and fast enough that a relief bounce isn’t out of the question. At the same time, we have yet to see prices stabilize…all of which combine for one very interesting situation as we move toward Monday.
As we head into a brand new week of trading, let’s examine some important levels in the indexes to keep an eye on in the days ahead. That will have the greatest influence on how individual stocks are going to move, so it’s where the trading week begins.
This clip was also posted over on the Trading Videos site (as always), and perhaps you’ve seen it there – but in case you didn’t, I wanted to put it here on the blog for you.
Let me highly suggest clicking the “HD” on the video player and then going full-screen for best quality.
Thanks for stopping by and I’ll see you here soon with more.
Until then… Trade Like a Bandit!

A week ago, traders were mulling over the option expiration Friday selloff which brought the most red the indexes had seen in a couple of months. The S&P 500 broke its uptrend line, and many wondered if that might be the end of the rally.
And then last week arrived. The buyers stepped in once again, keeping the uptrend intact. And perhaps just to prove their point, more new 52-week highs were made on Friday. That’s an important reminder that the uptrends still deserve respect, and that the top-calling game might hold appeal for some, but it isn’t paying very well at this point.

More new highs were reached yet again last week, although the week ended with some abrupt selling. What was shaping up to be a quiet down day turned into the biggest drop we’ve seen in a couple of months, thanks in large part to news out of GS.
Regardless, the turn lower is good in the short-term for a couple of main reasons. First, it reminds traders that the market CAN go down! Many have forgotten that in recent months. Second, it should help some new bases to form in the charts of individual stocks, and even lasting reversals in some cases. The shake-up will be nice, so if the selling caught you off guard, don’t worry.

Steady gains were added last week to the recent consolidation we’ve seen in the indexes, producing more new 52-week highs to start the second quarter. Even the minor dips are still being bought, reinforcing the confidence of the buyers.
The indexes have been unable to pull back since the late-January slide, and it seems as if the new ‘correction’ is more of the sideways nature. That’s working for now, as it’s keeping the uptrends intact while at the same time eliminating the overbought conditions we saw just a few weeks ago. The market now looks poised for further strength, so it should be interesting to see how the buyers respond.

Last week proved to be quiet with only 4 sessions, and yet gradual strength emerged once again with each of the indexes making upside progress. The DJIA and S&P 500 each tagged new 52-week highs, while the NAZ remained in its consolidation zone just shy of resistance.
We’ve seen some needed rest lately, which has already done quite a bit to create some short-term bases in the charts of many individual stocks. More of the same would be healthy, although the buyers have momentum right now and don’t seem eager to relent.
