I don't know much about systems and research. Will I be lost?

Although the information presented is very advanced, it is presented it in such a way that anyone can understand it. As a prerequisite to attending our seminar on system development, we do recommend that you first look over Chuck LeBeau’s book (available through us) entitled, Computer Analysis of the Futures Market.  

It’s one of the best books available on systems development. In it, the authors take you through a detailed discussion of various market indicators and the use of computers to build and optimize a trading system.

Who presents the information?

  Dr. Tharp and Chuck LeBeau present the entire program. Van presents 75 percent of the seminar and Chuck the remaining topics plus he gives his perspective on various areas of trading. This alone is worth many times over the price of the seminar and can save you thousands of dollars in just market research!

My trading is going well. Why do I need this program?

There is a saying in the trading industry: "Watch out for the trade that has your number on it." That trade usually comes along when you least expect it - while you are doing well. The best traders all have ongoing research programs. Thus, no matter how well their trading or investing is going, there are always new ideas being researched. Moreover, suppose we could help you raise your income by 25 percent, would that make it worthwhile?

I don't know. Will I truly get the value for the money?

In terms of trading, just learning one new element about your trading system could easily save you from losing the cost of the program and, even better, could help you cover the cost of the program by hundreds of times.

Plus consider this:

  • Factor 1: How many of the actions and strategies that you are currently using could be improved or slightly adjusted? What kind of profits would you make doing that? For example, you could increase your win consistency rate by 10 percent, 20 percent, even 50 percent. What if you could keep the same system reliability (percentage of wins), but were able to increase the size of your gains compared to the size of your losses? How much of an increase would it take to pay for the program in just a week? A month? Probably very little.
  • Factor 2: How many key elements of trading are you avoiding? What would it be worth to you to put that information and those techniques into action immediately so your trading would be more consistent and profitable? Think of what that increased effectiveness could be worth to your bank account, this month, next month, or next year!
