Having just returned from a trip to London, and of course the New Years celebrations, one of the great triumphs of 2012 was the London Olympic Games.  Clearly, looking at the success of the various athletes, just like trading. Little was down to skill or luck.  Instead, training, preparation and of course focus on the specifics of the event.  The same could be said of successful trading. For sprinters such as Ussain Bolt.

Don’t fear Trading Online as it has never been easier

Andrew Baxter January 11, 2013

Trading Online has never been easier. You don’t need to be an expert to buy or sell stocks, and the costs have been plummeting over the last few years. Although trading platforms will vary between professional and ‘Mum and Dad’ user levels, the introduction of trading apps means anyone can buy or sell from almost anywhere, at anytime, and simply with a swipe of the finger! I can still remember my first trade. And I had moved to Auckland, New Zealand from Australia to take a job as a budding new Technical Analyst. I had been introduced to the world

High Frequency and Robot Trading

Andrew Baxter December 18, 2012

High Frequency Trading (HFT) has been the buzz word of markets for a number of years now. Throughout this year, in Australia, we have seen this gain great traction and more headlines.  According to the regulator. HFT represents 30% of the turnover in the equity market (up from 3-4% in Feb 2010) and as much as 65% in the US.  This surge in growth has provided much needed liquidity (phantom liquidity, depending on your view).

Australian Economic Outlook 2013

Andrew Baxter December 14, 2012

When writing on subjects that are close to home. It is often hard to be as objective as you would like.  However, as a trader, the whole business is seeing things as they are, not as you think they are.
