The following is a Forex event that I am organizing in Vancouver (Richmond to be exact), B.C., on Saturday, Nov. 12, 2011. Mark McDonnell of ForexEarlyWarning.com is our featured instructor, and it promises to be a popular and sold-out event.

Mark is extraordinary in his trading methodology, has been consistent in his approach as his legion of followers can attest to, and now he is coming to Vancouver for an all-day seminar that is only $99 (+HST for B.C. residents) – which includes lunch.

If you are a Forex trader of ANY level, you will benefit from spending the day with Mark. It might possibly, completely change the way you approach your trading. We’ll publish a sales profile for this seminar on TradingMetro soon, but in the interim, please see full instructions below. If you have any questions, please drop me an email – sam(at)tradingmetro.com or give me a call (604.909.3750).

I look forward to seeing you there!

Cheers – Sam

General Summary
This is a 12 hour Forex Trader Training by master trader Carlos Wolf. Carlos has been teaching since 2005 and has been a mentor to thousands of traders since then. He is a Forex mentor to a worldwide audience.

One thing you’ll quickly realize is that there are no outlandish claims or exaggerations.

Ordinarily Carlos conducts his training over two days, but since he is a resident of Vancouver, we are lucky to have the option of having the training spread over a longer period. Over the course of four Tuesdays, starting Tuesday, Feb. 8, 2011, Carlos will conduct three hour sessions from 6 – 9 p.m. It’s a lot of material and it’s best to have it in increments.

In between the live sessions (and really this is based on trader feedback) there will be online support sessions (once a week). There are also a variety of excellent resources you’ll have access to for 60 days from when the training starts.

I am a personal friend of Carlos and he has offered to train anyone from the Vancouver Forex Meetup group at a 35% discount. Ordinarily the course is $1000 USD, but through this special offer, it is available for $650 CAD. Carlos owns and operates www.FXTecTips.com.

What is included?
LIVE COACHING SESSSIONS
+ Four 3-hour LIVE face-to-face group Forex trading training sessions (General training outline is below)

ONLINE COACHING SESSIONS
+ Weekly online support classes (between live sessions – as needed by the group)

SUPPORT BONUSES (Included Free for the duration of the training and 30 days thereafter – approx. 60 days)
+ Full Access to Academic Webinars (Recorded Course Modules) | All Course topics are supported by recorded modules that can be accessed 24/7.

FAQs
Q: Will there be spouse or friend discounts?
A: The pricing for this special training is already discounted for Meetup group members, but a discount is available for spouses, who will receive a $150 cash rebate on the first day of the training. So the cost would be $650 for the first person and $500 for the spouse. This would apply to direct family members as well – sons and daughters.

Q: How large will the training group be?
A: The optimal number is 20.

Q: What if I can’t make it to the Wednesday night training sessions?
A: If you purchase the training session and can’t make it to Wednesdays, that’s not a problem. Carlos will do all he can to come up with a workable schedule for you.

Q: Is the training available in any other languages?
A: This particular training is in English, but Carlos also teaches in Spanish. You can take advantage of this special pricing and Carlos will work out a separate Spanish training session for those who show interest.

Every week, TradingMetro is deluged by one link exchange request or another. In response to this, I am stating TradingMetro’s policy. Requests we receive are similar to what you see below:

Our official policy is that TradingMetro does NOT practice in any sort of Link Exchanges. We will display links of our partners on occasion, but these are reputable providers in the Online Trading industry. We will absolutely not exchange links with any directories, portals, or similar sites.

Good luck in your search strategies, and if you are a provider of a trading solution (strategy, course, system, tool, etc.) we’d love to hear from you and see if there is a basis for a joint venture. If you are interested in this, please scroll down and submit a message to us through our Contact Us page.

Yes, I’ve been out of the blogging loop for quite some many number of months, but it’s just been because I’ve been busy with other non-Forex things, and been having a good time with it!

Over the past couple of years, though, I’ve organized a Forex Meetup group in Vancouver, BC, and we have a great group of traders who come out every month, with new traders constantly coming out.

If you’re local to the Vancouver area, or even if you aren’t (sure you wouldn’t be able to meet with us, but you’ll receive some of the updates that are sent out), join our Meetup group – the most active Forex trading Meetup group in North America.

I invite special guests to come present on a regular basis.

The whole point of the group is that NO ONE trading tool is the holy grail for all – I don’t care what anyone says – so we have varied approaches and tools presented and talked about at the group. The onus will always be on a trader to sift through what’s presented and continue on their own unique trading journey.

I haven’t personally been trading with Gain Capital, and it seems that it’s a GOOD thing!

The National Futures Association just sent out a notice “NFA orders $459,000 monetary sanction against New Jersey forex firm Gain Capital Group LLC” today and I wonder what kind of REAL impact this will have on Gain Capital’s (or Forex.com’s) business.

Despite the fact that this has been “settled” with Gain not “admitting” or “denying” charges, how will the Complaint and Decision affect its business?

It’s been weeks since I blogged – mostly because I’ve been busy with a whole whack of things. But now that LOST is officially over, I can focus on other things again .

On Wednesday we’re welcoming Ryan O’Keefe to the Vancouver Forex Meetup group – so if you are in the Vancouver area, I’d encourage you to come. We have a few spaces left, and I know that Ryan’s approach will resonate with the majority of traders out there.

He’s here Wednesday night, so grab a spot through the Meetup group!

Just a couple of things that I get bombarded with CONSTANTLY.

FOREX SPAM
If it isn’t one shady company it’s another. Recently “Go Markets” (Go Markets Forex Broker) a broker based in Australia. All of a sudden I start receiving emails from them, so I replied and asked how I got on their list. The response was (and shockingly I actually did receive a response):

Dear Sir,

Thankyou for your email,

We arrange mailouts from a variety of sources, you may have given your details to a website that discusses FX trading or online forums.

If you wish to be removed from our mailing list then feel free and this will be done

Kind regards

Go markets

I “may” have given my details? I never use my personal corporate address to sign up on any list. The only way this address would have been gathered is by someone I’ve communicated with manually adding my name. Sheesh. For all the good that some are doing in the Forex trading industry – there are forex spammers and forex scammers who will do anything to get seen.

So, if this is the way they market their business … do you think they conduct their business in a similar way?

INDIAN SEO
Speaking of being seen. Search Engine Optimization is big biz these days and TradingMetro gets hit hard CONSTANTLY by Indian SEO companies that make it sound like they’re based in some English speaking country. Today I received an email from “Kent Cornwall.” It’s ALWAYS some anglo name. And the IP Address is always similar. Another form of spam.

I call these time wasters and unfortunate attempts at “business.” 

I usually don’t sit through presentations at Moneyshows and Expos – but this one by Matthew McCall on ETFs was very good. He cycles through a ton of various ETFs and although his commentary doesn’t accompany this, it’s still a useful presentation to flip through.

My general thought on the Moneyshow is fairly luke-warm. And that’s only because it serves a purpose to me to see what and who are out there. It’s a great place to make contacts.

For traders, though, it leaves much to be desired. I only had to enter the Hyatt Regency for a few minutes to realize that people are bombarded with “stuff.” Just walking past folks sitting down pulling one flyer after another out of their giveaway bags made me wonder how any of this could be effective – for anyone.

Walking around the exhibit floor, though, most everything is a big ticket item, so a few sales can make the thousands of dollars spent on a booth worth it – maybe.

I had one exhibitor tell me that it was by far the most sparsely attended Moneyshow she had been at, but the most effective because she had more of a chance to actually talk to people and answer their questions.

The Moneyshow franchise is gobbling up its competition, most recently the Financial Forum, which got the Moneyshow into Vancouver for the first time.

One thing that Moneyshow needs to do more effectively is reach out to those in newer markets through local partnerships.

All in all, though, the philosophy of let’s throw as much crap against the wall and see what sticks, burns bright with the Moneyshow. I’m not saying that’s bad, it’s just the way it’s been. All I’m saying is, it can be done better.

It’s a constant thought I have with TradingMetro … how can we better deliver what to traders what they need (not what they’re necessarily looking for – as all the stuff that’s out there promotes confusion).

We’ll see how it goes .
