Bennett Teaching Risk Control  & Trading The ART® System At The TradeStation Booth


"Thank you very much for asking you have been very helpful to me
here in Greece...Even though I am miles away and my English is not so good , from the time that I purchase ART , I feel that someone is there for me...many thanks... Have a happy holidays.  Best Regards
"

Dimitrios, Greece

"I have been trading and writing trading systems for many years. At first sight the ART system seemed very simplistic and I was a little skeptical. Nevertheless having read a lot of books on trading this one had something that caught my eye. It was a little different. The book is not really of much use without the software so I went ahead and bought the software as well as some training webcasts. This gave me an opportunity to speak with the author and it quickly became clear to me, being able to refer to my own experience of technical analysis, that there is more to this than meets the eye. It is based on principles that have worked well for a lot of technical traders over the years. Do not be deceived by the simplicity. There is much more to the system described in the book that meets the eye. Dig deeper and you will find a real gem of a system."

Stephen V, Switzerland

"Most advice from Trading books focus on indicators and other stochastic measurements to help you trade better... but this book [The ART® of Trading"] is focused on discerning market truth by analyzing the price and volume relationships. With the development of this ability the trader will be able to make rational trades and control risk and reward."

W.D.

"I read several books on investing and software. The ART of Trading by Bennett McDowell is very unique and simple. This Wiley Trading book is used by several professionals in various countries including US. Bennett has put years and years of experience into the book. On top of it, the book comes with free trial of expensive software. This book and software is not "Get Rich Quick" scheme. If you are willing to work, this book points you towards the right direction. You only need right direction in the trading/investing amazon. Thanks Bennett sharing the experience through the book and software".

Ved P., San Diego CA

"The ART of Trading is one of the best trading books out there. Bennett McDowell lays out the concepts in a clear no nonsense fashion. Anyone interested in trading will benefit from this book".

John B., Columbus OH

"As a licensed financial advisor, as well as a CFP, I was always skeptical of any investment strategy other than "Buy & Hold". The recent market downturn has confirmed that Buy & Hold only works over very long periods of time. Bear markets can last for decades. McDowell's book is very straightforward. No promises or expectations. The money management and trading psychology are right on the mark. I strongly recommend his system for the legions for "Buy & Hold" investors who want to see realistic growth over time".

David P., Lawrenceville, GA

"This book is comprised of really good trading fundamentals and also some outside of the box trading concepts that will not only benefit the new trader, but the veterans as well. The book serves as a companion to the ART trading software, which by the way is one of the best trading software packages available at any price".


Michael K., West Chester, PA

"I found this book to be an "all you need to know" if you're a trader using the ART system of trading. My biggest problems have always been a lack of discipline in following the rules and the "ability" to always find a reason not to enter trades. With other systems, they usually give guidelines and then a rather long list of all the reasons why this "trade setup" might not work. The ART trading system has been, for me, the simplest rules to follow and have visually - through the patterns shown on the charts - helped me remain more disciplined in my trading. I demo'd the system for one month and, recognizing that no system is perfect and losses will always occur, I am convinced that this is the system that my personality, trading skill level, and mental risk level all match best with".

Brock, B, Birmingham AL

"I am familiar with the work of Bennett McDowell for many years. In my search for robust and reliable trading systems, I was lucky enough to find the ART trading system and work with it in the markets with great success over the past years.

This book is the result of Mr. McDowell's mastery and experience over the years. It shows in a simple and straightforward way what a trader must do to succeed in the markets in the long term. Not for a day, not for a week, not for a month, but for a lifetime....Bennett's system is not just a technical system of entries and exits. It's a complete approach, a well prepared trading plan that you have to follow every day to succeed in the markets.

Is it the "Holy grail" of trading? of course not, because such a system simply doesn't exist. And Bennett is quite clear on that. With his experience, he knows very well that it's misleading to tell a trader that there can be a system that never fails. Instead, he tries to teach the truth, the "realities" of the market, as he calls them. And that is price and volume....Nothing else....

The book gives the reader the opportunity to test, in real time ,the ART trading software, which is available in many platforms. I think that this is a great companion to the system itself. It recognizes automatically the "pyramid points" and the reversal bars, and gives the trader the time to concentrate on the important things, that is the money management and the trade management.

A very useful book to whoever wants to take a complete, reliable and straightforward approach to trading...."


A.N., Athens, Greece

"A great read and a book that you leave next to your trading monitor. Easy to follow risk management tools that will take your trading to the next level. After reading this book I was able to apply rules to my trading that puts me on par with the Professionals. A must read for any TRADER".

L. G., Miami FL

"This book revolutionized my trading! It is the only book on the market that I have come across that's easy to understand. All traders need to have a sound money management system to be successful and this book provides the perfect blueprint".

John P., Los Angeles, CA

"I knew I needed to learn more about managing money in relation to trading options. I don't have a financial background and this book clarifies what to do. The author graciously includes works by different authors on money management as well. I've met him in person at the Trade Show in Vegas November 2008. He is an intelligent and generous teacher and his book is the best place to start".

Patricia B., Los Angeles, CA

"I am so thankful that I began my life as a trader with reading 'A Trader's Money Management System'. I am currently in the research mode and have yet to buy my first system, set up my first brokerage account or make my first trade. It has given me confidence that so far I am doing things right and in order (capital, money management, system then psychology). I now have a realistic understanding that a low win to loss ratio is ok as long as I have a good money management. It will be the money management that will keep me in the game and hopefully allow my winners to overtake my losers. Thanks Bennett".

Balitomore MD

"Trading is more about not losing money than about winning trades. After reading, "A Trader's Money Management System" by Bennett McDowell, I learned how not the lose my shirt and stay in the game. Not every trade will be a winner. So, be prepared and manage your risk. I would recommend this book to any serious trader".

J. H.


"Bennett, I am currently trading the USDJPY with the ART® System and is working great. So far i am a huge believer...""

Ron F., Cockeysville, MD

"I have been trading for several years now. This book has offered me a different insight to trading and I just love this book!"

Bob from New Jersey read “The ART® of Trading” and uses the ART® Software. Bob is very impressed with the ART® Software, so much in fact he had this to say:

“I've been trading for five years and I've used lots of software: VectorVest, AmiBroker, eSignal, WizeTrade, PremiereTrade AI, TeleChart, Vantage Point, eASCTrend, etc. I still hold onto most of these because I'm a trading software junkie. But, I find A.R.T. to really be the most specific and profitable. It tailors the entry, stop, and targets without too much subjective interpretation. This is the most I've been impressed with any software package in the first month of using any of them...I love the software and it's made me $8,800 since I started using it on 7/21/08.

"Just wanting to let you know that today was one of my best trading days,
I cant imaging trading without ART software anymore :-)

 Its so much better than lagging indicators like I used before...

The ART pyramids outperform any other approach, its the ultimate method to trade,
thank you so much!

 Gold play today was great:

Now he compares ART® to his previous trading approach/system:

My fully automated system [used on the chart below] failed, squeeze indicator fired
off on the 512 tick chart but got stopped out like yesterday:

 I am feeling very comfortable, trading the ART system..."

As I told you during today’s webcast, yesterday I had a great day on the SP e-mini, thanks to ART, netting 14 points on a long trade. I’m getting pretty consistent results with the higher timeframe method. I normally trade on 3-min chart and use a 15-min and 10-min chart as a way to confirm in which direction is the trend developing – as a result I only trade contracts in this trend direction....Thanks for all your trading insights."

Wiley & Sons To Publish Bennett's New Book

Money Management


Money management in trading involves specialized techniques combined with the trader's own judgment. Not adhering to a sound money management program can find a trader exposed to a deadly risk of ruin, and, worst of all, most probably equity bust. A few essential money management techniques can make a big difference to the bottom line. In The Trader's Money Management System, author Bennett McDowell will introduce readers to the most important elements of money management in trading.

Topics covered in the book include: psychology of risk control; how to design a money management program to get maximum profit from your trading system; tips on designing a stop loss strategy to keep you out of trouble while avoiding "whip saw madness"; how to calculate the best trade size on every trade; how to analyze your profit / loss results and identify weaknesses in your current strategy; plus much more.

"Hey Coach, I’m back here in FLORIDA after a good trip (home). Just wanted to thank you for everything. It was a pleasure to meet you, your lovely wife and your team. I must say I have a much different view of your software, I think I was trying to read more into it than necessary. I am committed to becoming a successful trader and I think my biggest problem to this point has been that I have not committed to a system or method. The most important benefit I got from the tutorial was that you convinced me that I must take the time and do the testing and make it my own in order to gain the confidence needed to trade. After meeting you in person, your sincerity and confidence was obvious. I didn’t get the feeling that I got with so many vendors out there, that you were only interested in selling me something else. So again, thank you and I look forward to working with you. I trust that you will be brutality honest with me and keep me on the right track."

"Hi Bennett:
...... I finished the course [ART® Home-Study Course] last Friday. It was one of the best courses I have ever taken in any subject.  I have already suggested it to other people I know who are interested in trading.  It is very rare that something works as advertised. I am happy to say that your home study course, and ART® Charting Software works so well, its scary some times.  I happened to be up at 1am just watching the FOREX markets and I caught a really early bullish PTP [Pyramid Trading Point®] in the R2K .... So far, the trade has picked up 8 points and not stopped out yet on a 2 min chart. The paper trading has proved to be so valuable as well as the trade size calculator. Honestly, I can't imagine trading without ART® or the calculator..... Anyway, thanks so much for your help service, and constant feedback. Your personal service really means a lot to me.....

Dear Ben,

I want to thank you for your superb presentation at the CIT ("Colleagues In Trading") meeting today. Both programs, morning and afternoon, were enlightening, each in its own way, and certainly worth a trip down to LA, my first attendance at a CIT meeting. Sharon was spot-on in her assessment of the value you brought to the group.  I appreciated the obvious effort to maintain a commercial-free morning session; but it was the afternoon program that I was particularly interested in.  I was most impressed on several levels, especially the straight talk and lack of BS. When I got home tonight I “joined the club.”  I look forward to working with you in the coming months.

Bennett Discusses his innovative "Reality Based Trading" system for active traders and investors at the Investment Connection

"Hi, Bennett, ... I really love your course and software and am convinced that it will change my life and enable Jan and I to live our dreams. Your "trader's mindset" advice helped me improve my trader's self-image with the understanding that my goal is to learn to be as great a trader as possible, and that I am not afflicted with "bad trading genes." I just have to overcome a few poor trading techniques, and have your professional software system. I realize from your advice about paper trading and going back to paper trading (if one loses about 12% of one's trading account), which I call an "Account Stop Loss," that if I had followed your advice, it would have saved me over 85% of my losses over my ten years of trading. I also like that I can be creative even within your system as I customize it to my needs. Of course, having an objective professional software program is also incredibly helpful. Thank you so much! ..."

“Hi Ben, Kim joins me to express our thankful appreciation to Jean and you for your warm hospitality and kindness. I learned a lot not only from your patient teaching of a wise, prudent, skilful and realistic approach to the art and technical science of trading, but also from the impeccable organization of your trading office, showing how much you take the business seriously, I should say passionately.

……..I was a little bit surprised myself to have found out that trading the S&P is not as stressful, scary as I thought, but start having some fun instead…..

About The TradersCoach.com Free Seminars

"Bennett, Thank you. It was my pleasure and a great experience to be able to attend the first of what I imagine will be many more of these seminars. I'm sure everyone there found that the time spent was valuable. I know it was well worth the trip for me....

"I've been to more than a few "seminars" that were little more than advertorials with high pressure sales pitches at the end. I truly appreciated the pricing and discount structure being presented up front and felt that your seminar provided much more information that was relative to successful trading versus being simply a lengthy sales pitch for your course and software. I'm absolutely sure that I could benefit tremendously from both the course and the software.....

Again, it was my pleasure to attend and to meet you, Jean, and Rae. I wish you all well in your foray into the marketing jungle and I hope you continue to have the attitude you currently have about not becoming a marketing company instead of an educational firm".

Traders' Resource: Courses and Seminars By Stocks & Commodities magazine

They say that the more you learn, the more you know you need to learn. This is true in trading. If you're not fully prepared when you go to trade, you could be the one that the smart money profits from.

Education is crucial in trading. If you don't step up to the line with the right tools and know-how to trade the markets, you may as well be gambling -- with the odds on the house's side. But help is available, in the way of courses, seminars, classes, manuals, books, tutorials, even mentors.

Readers often ask us how they can further their knowledge and skills in trading (that is, in addition to reading STOCKS & COMMODITIES!). Some readers write us asking about certification or degree programs in technical analysis, some want a schedule of upcoming seminars and conferences, and others seek personalized counsel or tutoring. Well, here it is -- your resource for current and upcoming courses and seminars. It's this month's Traders' Resource.

Readers may also want to check out our Readers' Choice Awards in the 2004 Bonus Issue of STOCKS & COMMODITIES for the category of Trading Centers/Schools/Training.

President of TradersCoach.com Writes Featured Article for "Tradersworld" Magazine!

Bennett McDowell writes "Fear Based Trading" & "Running Your Trading As A Real Business" for Tradersworld Magazine

November 2003

I am very satisfied with the valuable information contained in both "The Survival Guide For Traders" book and "The Trader's Assistant ™" trade posting & organizer. In addition, "The Trader's Assistant™" is easy to use and very useful. You all seem to have it well covered, thanks very much!

Dr. Dennis P.

Cincinnati, Ohio  - November 2003

From A New "ART" Student.

"Hi Ben! Well, I'm still paper trading and next week will be 2 months of paper trading. I've decided to "focus" on the e-mini's ES and NQ of the CME. I'm still using e-Signal and I'm getting great results from ART techniques. By great I mean, I have not seen any drawdown yet of anything worse than 3 trades. I'm still "scalping" on most days as I do "day trading." I feel more comfortable scalping than I do trending with the e-mini's for now. I do not trade till after the markets have "calmed" down which is sometimes an hour after the markets have opened. Sure, I miss a lot of opportunities but that's ok with me. I prefer slower trading so I can get good prices at limits. I usually try to buy at the limit and sell at the limit as well. However if the market happens to be going very fast and I need to get out.....I will get out at the market.

My overall performance has been in the mid-eighties of which I'm very comfortable with. When I first started developing my methods using ART I found myself getting "way too excited" at times. Today and for the last two weeks.....I've been working on my "not getting excited" trading. So far so good. Getting too excited with the results or trading is way too stressful for me. I need to trade stress-free. I like to scalp "channels" for they are quiet. I make sure I trade in the general direction of the trend. If the trend is down....I make sure I get to the top of the channel to get good prices. If the trend is up.....I try to get good bottom prices. I don't trade against the "flow" for the most part. Ben, I've been quite happy with my progress and I feel I should be ready to do live trading on November 3rd. If I feel I need more time to "monitor" my emotions I will not trade till ready. I do feel I'm about ready and feel very confident though not overly confident.

Ben, I'm planning to come to California to see you trade and learn more....but I need to wait till January to find out what weeks I can get...... I understand you are very booked and will make sure I get in. I look forward to this. The other thing is.....about the Newsletter......is that in the membership section? If it is, I'd like to be a member and will forward a check via mail to you this coming weekend. I sure do want to read about, "scaling out of trades." I have read where some traders scale in trades as well and have always wondered about the theory of that. Scaling in and out of trades would be something I'd like to learn and practice. Thanks for the wonderful and very profitable techniques you have shared with your students. I'm a happy student and about ready to trade for real. Hope to hear from you at your convenience. Thanks for contacting me. I will keep in touch."

Sincerely, Steven Z.
