Greetings,
A lot of you older Adobe Flash users have been having problems
viewing the videos on our web site. This is due to a bug in Adobe’s
flash plug in in conjunction with Camtasia.
I’ve applied a patch to all the videos on the server and you should
now be able to view them with no problem. Thanks for your patience

There is a lot of pessimism in trading and self doubt. Would like to just quickly share one of the positive email we got from the trading room. It’s hard to stick to a plan. Weather it be following that new low carb diet or taking your stops when your rules demand you do. Congratulations to everyone on alumni status and who has come out in that 10% of day trades who actually make it in this business.
>Hey Alex,
> Just wanted to let you know that since Andrea and I have been in the Pure Tick room we have made back close to $7,000. Thank >you for keeping us on the right side of the trades.

Greetings, Ha ok I was just kidding a bit with that subject but it made you LOOK. It’s amazing that losing traders want to hear about other traders failures and not their successes. In our live trading alerts room we have the most people DROP OUT on the days we make the MOST MONEY. Jealousy is a feeling best left at home and for cheating spouses! Now on with the original topic . . .
Mantis is one of our users who’s been a member of the PureTick trading room for 5 months now. He just sent me a nice positive complimentary email along with a capture of his P&L statement for Monday 1/14/2008. He was up over $400 using between 1-3 contracts on Alex’s calls yesterday. He’s agreed to let me post it on the site to give struggling newbies inspiration. Here is a screen shot of his Trade Station executions and P&L for yesterday.
Also–Just an FYI here. The trading room password has been CHANGED. Please log in to http://www.puretick.com/member to find out the new session lock word.

We were asked by a few users to record some of Alex’s official
calls in real time. Today CajunSniper recorded the official calls in the
morning. This will give traders a chance to go back and review the
action without the pressure of being in cash.
The markets are still volatile last week. Try not to get frazzled
by all the action. As usual, when in doubt stay out. Here are the links to the trading call videos we took Thursday (8/16/2007).
You will be able to see the trades unfold as they actually occurred.
For non-users, the ‘buzz’ sound you hear is the trading audio alert.

Today we took numerous great long plays off of the cluster support level around 13,402 on the Dow E-Mini YM contract. A cluster is just a level were multiple technicals are overlapping. They usually provide rock solid excellent support or resistance for high probability trades!
Also, trading can make you hungry. So why not try out a tasty Caramello. Don’t share it, especially with dames named Megan.

What in the world are some of you guys thinking! Sit back and ask yourself. Why did you join PureTick? Here are a few reasons I can think of:
Alex’s 82% success rate?
Live market commentary?
Consistent profits?
Education and advice?
So when clear solid advice is given in the trading room on a trade, why chose to ignore it. Imagine a guy who comes in to a restaurant. He orders, the food comes and then he refuses to eat it. Then he pays fully price and happily leaves. What was the point in wasting that money? This rant does not apply to all of our users. I observed a few traders in the room going maverick and totally ignoring Alex’s and my advice on Friday. It does feel good to do your own thing and to figure out the world and its nuances on your own. But why re-invent the wheel when it’s already working. Alex’s found a set of rules that work for him. It took him since 1970 and over $80,000 of lost capital. If you want to go through that journey then please continue disregarding sound advice and making decisions based on emotion. Please email me now and I will close your account. We’re here to teach you what works and severely lesson your learning curve.

EDUCATION
Anyone can pick an entry. Our ultimate goal is teach you to stick to your rules while learning to become a professional trader. So you’ll be trading your own account, on your OWN without any alert system or service. Education and money management is key. Why is it that one trader can enter the same trade as another and make money, while the newbie loses. Experience! Experience! Experience! Give Alex any indicator or entry system you want and he’ll make money with it. We’d all love to skip over that little hurdle! We can definitely help you shave months off your learning experience and keep you from blowing out your account. Please don’t take any signals you do not understand. Feel free to ask questions in the trading room. We’re here to help, not frustrate you.
JEALOUSY
Don’t give in to it! It is very frustrating for you to look at all the newbies and other traders making money in the room. And your sitting there diligently making nothing. So how do you think these newbies who like you started out losers are now becoming winners? Did they stay in the room and learn? Most definitely, yes. Was it easy? No! So stick around and learn a little more, keep a journal of your progress. You’ll get there.

Today HotComm released an updated to its conferencing software. It required a download that took about 30 seconds to install. The audio and video should be a lot more clear and network connections more stable. I see that about 20 of our room members decided that it was too cumbersome to install the update. This is where I yell at you and tell you how lazy you are. How are you going to make it in the cut throat world of trading if you can’t dodge little problems or obstacles that are thrown at you. Exert a little effort. Help me help you! I should not complain. These will be the same people in the market we take money from. Rant off.

Spoke with a lot of users today that held on to their shorts stubbornly without a stop. These were the only trades I placed today and they *all* used stops. It was very tough. Is trading impossibile?? No but its definately not easy.

Hello there,
Every day we get feedback from people who stop themselves out of winning trades. Or perhaps those who trade with no stops at all.
As you may know we constantly tell people to trade small and on a sim and learn.
And most just happily ignore all that, they ignore the videos, they ignore discipline etc.
The only hope for some is to train them for a week and yell and scream when they do something stupid.
Unfortunately we can not stop people from taking or not taking trades; I can not stop them from not doing their homework; I can’t stop them from making outrageous trading claims.
Each trader has his or her responsibilities.
We had some very good trades yesterday. The only one that lost big was Max Spann and we know over time it is very successful. The gap worked beautifully. And the only short that got stopped out was more than made up for by the trend line break long.
It is tough, as you can see when people blame you for their trading mistakes.
All we can do is reinforce the lessons.

After a long dull week, I was so jovial and excited about Wednesdays FOMC announcement. Finally the market would have a catalyst to kick it up a notch! (ala Emeril) Wednesday morning my cable modem connection went down for an enitre two days. The trading room had the best two days they’ve had in awhile. I was not abel to trade any of it. I was slightly bummed out. That Friday I was on the phone to Ma Bell ordering a backup DSL connection for my trading setup. They are only $24 if you already have phone service. Always have a back up internet and power connection. This could of been fatal if I was in a position when the FOMC announcement was released. Some of you may be able to buy a $10 USB cable and connect your CELLULAR PHONE to the computer if your internet connection goes down. I should say WHEN your connection goes down because i
ts going to happen.

P.S. Have a grand and happy mothers day!!

At about 2:15 PM we broadcast our last trade of the day. It was a
call to short the market.
Unlike a few of the earlier ones which worked right away, this one
took a little time
I have deleted the members names to protect the innocent, hehe, but
you can see how people can start negative images about their own
trades.
14:15:21 {AlexLW} [**] SELL SHORT ALERT. USE STOP MANAGEMENT PER
GUIDELINES. TAKE PARTIAL PROFITS WHEN MARKET MOVES 5 POINTS IN YOUR
FAVOR. [**] ! !
14:17:35 {prospero:} don’t like it
14:18:54 {prospero:} staying on the sidelines until I see a clear
signal, im confused here
14:30:13 {prospero:} what if it brake and go higher
14:30:40 {prospero:} this may be a fakeout
14:30:49 {prospero:} Help me Alex, I don’t see it yet
14:33:32 {prospero:)sad thing is that stop will take away
the whole green, meaning i went too light on winners
Then a couple of traders even go against the signal:
14:45:45 {prospero:} long 98
14:49:39 {prospero:} long 299
14:49:21 {prospero:sounds like i should bail ;p
14:53:24 {prospero:1 out BE
15:00:44 {prospero:} SHORTING
15:00:49 {prospero:CajunSniper} finally doing something
15:00:55 {prospero:CajunSniper} we were already short
15:01:30 {AlexLW} [xx] NEWER TRADERS CONSIDER EXIT BALANCE AT
MARKET. [XX] !
15:01:46 {prospero:)+8 :)
15:01:50 {prospero:CajunSniper} wow calls dead on today.
15:01:53 {prospero:} +15 flat
Only a few traders were able to ignore the pessimism:
15:09:21 {prospero:} covered 32 cars for +20
15:45:48 {prospero:} omg I close down and looks like I missed
another great short
The trade was a huge success. I don’t make this stuff up. The markets don’t defeat traders.
Traders defeat traders.
I think I may log off the next time many room members begin to
question their own trading positions. You put a trade on and a
stop. Then let the market run its course.
It is the doubt that causes traders to abandon decent trades that
are not stopped out way before hitting reasonable profit targets.
They reason, “Since the trade is not going to work, I am lucky to
make 3 points.
