In retrospect, my journey into the world of trading was as the moon cast amongst clouds struggling to illuminate the sky as was market truth and self-understanding obscured, beclouded among the majority that finds themselves in perpetual nebuloses

A comfort zone, one that can be purchased at the local bookstore, the latest seminar, through the late night infomercial or market software provider, is the context within which most market participants find themselves defined as mediocre. For the majority, those in the ninety percentile, their brokerage accounts will never sustain the learning curve necessary as it is impossible to experience the above without a large amount of time dedicated to the cause. This is the primary reason why the majority become dependent on models that have neither scientific basis in fact nor trading pyschology in their curriculum, as they rarely require dedication to any matter other than learning how to use the newly acquired market software which implements their use. Most trading "guru's" offer attractive simplistic solutions for a manifold of complexity that defines the markets. They certainly act as a conduit for the noise disseminated by the media, publishers, software companies etc, and they contribute to the traders demise. I don't ever recall any guru state that trading involved a change in ones way of life or thought processes.

Out of this group of discretionary traders approximately five or ten percentile at any particular time will discover the precious gems; gem-like attributes that enable self mastery, elements such as the art of learning, the art of understanding, the art of application, the art of trading simulation and an application of market pyschology that facilitate success. The art in the above statements refers to an intangible item, a form of self expression during which the learning curve proceeds, expressed in an explicit fashon that facilitates learning. It was going to take a change in my life's course and a study of psychology to succeed. I was fortunate to have discovered that fact in due time. Your love of the challenge is what will take you to this place of recognition and when you arrive, then your studies really begin!

This journey is not just about academics or charting software, it is about you, your mind, and your inner strength. It is about how you process and act on information, understanding how your mind protects itself from harm. I would argue that the psychological side to trading is more difficult than the academic side and is the intangible that is ignored by the majority. It will not be an easy journey to understand the complex market theory presented at our Academy. It will also be an arduous task rediscovering yourself and understanding the reasons why cognitive dissonance, along with a host of other potential physicological issues are so destructive in life and trading, and then how one finds remedy. During a conversation with a professional trader, it was mentioned that it takes approximately 20,000 hours of reading theory, watching markets, testing theory, studying psychology and trading market action before a trader can achieve the self-mastery required to become part of the elite. This project known as "The Auction Market Theory Academy” is my witness toward a fulfillment of that desire.

Hence, the light emanates from the student; it refines thought, clarifies the path during a clouded moonlit night.

It is my hope that you find the Academy's resources a very fecund approach, articulating the Mystery, the Science and the Psychology of complex market and cognitive processes.
