Read what one of the most-respected trading industry magazine editors has to say!




Daytrading University is one of the internet's premiere online interactive Nasdaq daytrader training sites, with over 7350 members from 35 countries worldwide as of April 2007. A leader in active trainer education, we have been featured in theStreet.com, About.com, Active Trader magazine, the Online Trading Expo, and have earned numerous testimonials from both professional traders like Steve Nison, Tony Oz and Barry Rudd, as well as from the financial media.

Featured Products:

The online multimedia Daytrading University "How To Day & Swing Trade The NASDAQ/NYSE Markets" course is updated regularly with new lessons, activities and video / audio clips to stay current. This is our flagship service and has been the pioneer in helping online Nasdaq day traders learn pro tips and techniques not covered in the fluff intro books and websites out there. Daytrading University's Premium Interactive Multimedia Online Daytrading Course has been so popular it has spawned a host of imitator "university" and "online course" concepts, and none have yet to match the detailed, comprehensive materials we make available to our members. Everything from downloadable powerpoint worksheets and activities to hundreds of current color chart patterns are included.

Our latest 14 DVD Stock Trading Success System with my colleague Steve Nison has been hugely popular, garnering industry acclaim from "Technical Analysis of Stock & Commodities" (TASC) Magazine, and featuring over 101 actual trader success stories on the site that you can read about (these are terrific - you've got to see 'em).

PLUS - our 7 DVD Traders' Secrets System with my colleague Steve Nison has also become a bestselling course, absolutely essential for all active traders to acquire.  Note that we raise the price on the course frequently, so be sure to see the preview video clips and more at the main site.

Our Preferred Trading Techniques:

  • We primarily use time & sales "tape reading" patterns with breakout & gap candlestick charts.
  • Breakout & gap play open-range daytrades for 2 to 20 minute roundtrips, done before 11am.
  • Tier relative strength, eg internets, semiconductors, biotechs, retail, oil and software sector plays
  • Volume breakouts in strongest-sector stocks on new 2-day high/low support/resistance
  • Key Market internal indicators including $TRINQ, $COMPQ, Nas-100 eminis and more
  • We look at both daily gap and breakout plays as well as a core basket of trading stocks

Most importantly, we explain why trade entries and exits are of interest, based on TA indicators. like 2-day open range breakout patterns, 1-minute candlestick chart patterns and time & sales prints. We also use intraday reversals off support areas and breakthroughs above resistance patterns on volume. Note that we make absolutely no performance claims of any kind, we are not investment advisors nor do we make recommendations to buy nor sell any security, and we caution traders that daytrading is high-risk, speculative activity that is not suitable for most people.

Many sites post paper "performance" pages that we feel are unrealistic at best, and many are misleading - actual trading has slippage and discipline issues involved that are not reflected in sites' paper performance pages. Show us audited actual brokerage records of every trade you've really executed, then we will pay attention, we say to these other sites.

Many traders lack the tools, training, discipline, and patience to be successful. Personally I believe that for myself, papertrading for the first couple of years before trying to trade live capital would have been a wise approach. We enjoy active trading, and wish you the best in your trading activities as well. Take your time to learn our methods, and best wishes for success with your trading, once you learn our advanced techniques.


Quote of the Month: "I know for a fact that my discipline in executing each and every trade according to my trading rules is the secret to my success"

"Ken, I'm new to the market and the information I learned on the DVD course was invaluable!!!

I spotted the market top and the end of Dec using the candle techniques I learned. Lightened up on my long positions and tightened my stops... I exited with my profits
intact!

The scanning and entry techniques I learned have helped me increase my winning percentage. I have been trading less than a year and consider myself lucky to have found this course.

Thanks to you and Steve I hope to avoid many of the mistakes I would have learned the hard way!!!"    - Joe Siano
