Stuart is recognised as one of the leading trading coaches in Australia. More importantly, he is one of the very few people who makes the effort to coach traders personally in their own homes at their trading desk, as opposed to cramming heaps of people into a seminar room.

Stuart advises that "Trading is like any other profession. You need to learn the basics, then develop and hone your skills through application. You are only going to succeed if you commit yourself to the task, as the only thing stopping you being highly profitable is yourself!"

Stuart truly understands the importance of you finding a trading plan and approach that is right for you. With his honest and clear style, he has helped thousands of people with their personal trading. He is an excellent motivator, teacher, and technically competent, and now it is your turn to be helped.

TESTIMONIES

"The coaching session was absolutely brilliant, and well beyond my expectations. You are a superb communicator and teacher, and I could not have been more impressed. I am a notoriously difficult person to impress, hence this praise is not simply hyperbole or being polite.

I have also read your book in totality, and also consider this to be a brilliant resource. I found the book to be succinct yet thorough, and most importantly application-orientated. It supplemented the session very well, and I will use it as an ongoing resource in my time ahead."

Greg Hughes, Private Trader

"Our three hour training session was very productive and highlighted some basic errors with designing my trading system and money management.

It is my only regret that I did not employ your services much earlier. I would have saved more than 10 times your fees in losses!

I wish you all the success in assisting other traders to fulfill their potential. I know I am now traveling down that road."

Stephen Warden, Private Trader

"Today was exactly what I needed. You highlighted for me very clearly some fundamental errors in my approach to the market and to the fact that I did not have a complete Trading Plan.
The most important areas identified were Money Management Rules and Position Sizing.

I have been trading full time now for 8 months and was getting frustrated at the number and size of Win to Losses when the direction the market headed was as planned.

The notes we made through the day provided me the guidance to systematically review my previous trades and take corrective action in my approach.

Thanks - It was the best thing I have done in 6 months!"

Gerard Hogan, Private Trader

"As you know, I have previously attended extensive training about trading but today, you made things sound so much clearer for me.

I now know some of the basic things that I could be doing a lot better and know that I am going to achieve far greater results thanks to your time today.

It was excellent."

Chris McCarthy, Private Trader

PROFILE: BRENT PENFOLD

Brent Penfold is a private trader first and foremost. He has:

i) a web site,
ii) a daily advisory newsletter,
iii) simple mechanical models, and
iv) real time results shown

to help those individuals who are looking for what actually works in trading index futures.

His governing principle in making available his newsletter and model is this;

He will only make available services that he personally trade.

He is also author of best selling book "Trading the SPI" whicc is in second edition and "Back to Basics Trading".

Backgroud
Brenthas been trading for over 23 years. He began trading when he joined Bank America as a trainee dealer in December 1983. It was during that month that he became fascinated with the markets.

When he joined Bank America Australia’s currency was still fixed and there was heavy speculation that Paul Keating (the then Treasurer of Australia who would later become Prime Minister) would announce the end of Australia’s fixed rate currency regime as part of a macro economic reform package.

As you can imagine there was heavy trading in the domestic money market as traders were looking to “park” their Aussie Dollars in short term securities. During one week Brent and team made over 1 million dollars on the short-term securities desk when 1 million dollars meant something. That ot him hooked on the markets! While he was with Bank America he principally trades Bank Bill Futures and Forward Foreign Exchange.

On his PA (personal account) he traded the SPI®. He first traded the contract in 1986 when the SPI® was four times its current size and back then he used the most sensible and conservative combination of Risk Management and Money Management available to young traders …. the credit card!

After completing his Master of Commerce degree he left Bank America and ever since have maintained my interest in the markets and trading.

On the first occasion he traded his $12,000 account up to over $18,000 before running it down to just under $2,000. He magnificently duplicated that achievement on his second attempt while on his third recapitalisation he managed to achieve a 50% drawdown before giving himself a huge uppercut and quit trading.

Over these past 20 years he has probably seen and researched most trading methodologies available. He has lost count of the numerous trading books, systems, seminars and software he purchased.

Brent believes that although there are no real secrets in trading, there are nuggets of gold worth searching for - be prepared to pan through piles of trading books (Van Tharp is a good place to start).

He emphasizes that the quickest path to trading success is to learn from a “trader” – find a mentor who will allow you to watch them actually trade. There is a reason why the “Master-Tradesman" apprenticeship structure has endured over the centuries.

Educating others is a secondary role. IndexALERT™ and IndexTrader™ represent an accumulation of Brent's trading experience he hope others will enjoy benefiting from as much as he has.

As a speaker and trainer, he has presented to the Australian Technical Analysts Association and the Traders Expos around Australia and throughout Asia. Brent is a licensed futures advisor and holds a Master of Commerce (Finance) degree.
