Deep Practice with Dr. Gary

A New Weekly Pro­gram to Build Your Tech­ni­cal Trad­ing Skill

“Learn from the mis­takes you made” has also been incor­po­rated to the pro­gram

Deep Prac­tice with Dr. Gary is a unique group pro­gram in the trad­ing indus­try, based on the robust research known as delib­er­ate or deep practice.

“My under­stand­ing of Wyckoff’s per­spec­tive of the mar­ket has deep­ened as com­pared to where I was before the pro­gram.  I used to do visu­al­iza­tion with the objec­tive of inter­nal­iz­ing trad­ing knowl­edge and expe­ri­ence from oth­ers but I wasn’t able to get the desired results.  I have found that the tech­nique of deep prac­tice has helped me to inter­nal­ize knowl­edge and expe­ri­ences faster.” Ivan from Singapore

This pro­gram is designed to do one thing and one thing only: develop and hone your knowl­edge, skills, and abil­i­ties in chart read­ing and trade execution.

What exactly is deep prac­tice?

It is the path fol­lowed by those who work to develop exper­tise and mas­tery in their field.  Solid research of expert per­for­mance tells us that mas­tery in any field or endeavor is not based on genet­ics, fam­ily back­ground, intel­li­gence, for­mal edu­ca­tion or even tal­ent.  Instead, we know that becom­ing a true expert comes from hard work.  In other words, exper­tise comes from practice.

But it is not just any kind of prac­tice.  It takes what is known as delib­er­ate prac­tice.

Many peo­ple have been in the same job or pro­fes­sion for 10, 20, even 30 years.  But even with all these years of expe­ri­ence, only few of these peo­ple are con­sid­ered as experts and mas­ters in their fields.  Why is that?  Devel­op­ing mas­tery takes more than mere experience.

It takes a spe­cial kind of prac­tice – the kind of prac­tice that takes you to the edge of your abil­i­ties, and then a lit­tle beyond.  By prac­tic­ing right at the edge of your abil­ity, you develop the knowl­edge, skills, and abil­i­ties that the aver­age per­son never acquires.  This is deep practice.

Deep Prac­tice with Dr. Gary:

Dr. Gary will apply the approach and prin­ci­ples laid out above to help you develop advanced chart read­ing skills.  He will lead you through actual deep prac­tice exer­cises on chart read­ing, bar-bar-bar.

Many prin­ci­ples of both basic and advanced chart read­ing will be prac­ticed delib­er­ately over the course of the program.

The Pro­gram:

This is an ongo­ing pro­gram of deep prac­tice.  Each week, Dr. Gary will start with a brief guided mind­ful­ness exer­cise to help you focus your atten­tion on the ses­sion activ­ity.  He will then begin a deep prac­tice exer­cise that incor­po­rates impor­tant prin­ci­ples of mar­ket assess­ment in a deep prac­tice man­ner, help­ing you to acquire new trad­ing knowl­edge, skills, and abilities.

The fol­low­ing will be incor­po­rated in the program:

  • Prac­tice of brief mind­ful­ness tech­niques to enhance men­tal clar­ity and bring you atten­tion into focus on the night’s deep prac­tice exercise
  • Assess­ing higher time frame mar­ket struc­ture and its potential
  • Deep prac­tice trad­ing the higher time frame struc­ture on the smaller time frames, bar-by-bar as the chart unfolds
  • Mak­ing deep prac­tice trad­ing deci­sions and assess­ing why they were cor­rect for that sit­u­a­tion, or why they may have led to faulty trad­ing choices.  The objec­tive is to acquire dis­cern­ing decision-making skills needed for com­pe­tent trading
  • Inte­grat­ing higher time frame analy­sis with intra­day price behavior
  • Deter­min­ing when to avoid trad­ing, an impor­tant skill
  • Stud­ies of vol­ume action, momen­tum, lack of momen­tum, gaps, trends, trad­ing ranges, volatil­ity, nar­rowed ranges and mar­ket contraction
  • Assess­ment of accu­mu­la­tion and dis­tri­b­u­tion areas, mark-up, cli­maxes, shake-outs, tests and lack of follow-through
  • Where to make trade entries and exits
  • How to man­age trades once entered
  • Advice on how to develop delib­er­ate prac­tice exer­cises on your own

Deep Prac­tice with Dr. Gary is a pro­gram designed to help you develop your trad­ing knowl­edge, skills, and abil­i­ties over time.  This is not a stan­dard webi­nar where a large amount of infor­ma­tion is con­veyed in an hour or two.   Instead, we will focus on and go through a small num­ber of charts each ses­sion and go deeply into those charts.  There­fore, not all the prin­ci­ples listed above will be cov­ered in any given ses­sion.  But many of the top­ics listed above will be cov­ered and repeat­edly prac­ticed over the course of the program.

The For­mat of the Program

Dr. Gary selects key areas of pre­vi­ous mar­ket behav­ior and deep prac­tice with the group, review in detail to help high­light impor­tant mar­ket char­ac­ter­is­tics and phenomena.  Homework assign­ments will be given at the end of each ses­sion for mem­bers to do deep prac­tice on.

Ben­e­fits of the Program

By using the meth­ods of delib­er­ate prac­tice, you can learn to inte­grate a deep knowl­edge of this mate­r­ial and add it to your skill set for future use.  As noted above, this pro­gram is designed to do one thing and one thing only: develop and hone your knowl­edge, skills, and abil­i­ties in chart read­ing and trade execution.

“So far the pro­gram has sharp­ened my obser­va­tions of demand and sup­ply.  I am pay­ing more atten­tion to all the sub­tle sig­nals that were dis­cussed in the pro­gram. After doing deep prac­tice every day and read­ing as many charts as I can, my read­ing of sup­ply and demand con­di­tions is get­ting more accu­rate.  My accu­racy in read­ing of trad­ing ranges has improved.  I am trad­ing spot forex on an intra­day basis.  I was able to pick up the direc­tion of a trade when a cur­rency pair is in its trad­ing range.  This has occurred in numer­ous occa­sions and the accu­racy is con­sis­tent.  E.g., before the sell­off in NZDUSD due to the earth­quake in New Zealand, NZDUSD was trad­ing in a range.  I found that the sup­ply was increas­ing and demand was decreas­ing in a slow fash­ion.  I decided to take a short on NZDUSD on No Demand bar near the top of the range.  It turned out to be a very prof­itable trade.  Another prof­itable trade was made on AUDUSD after the sell­off in NZDUSD.  Fol­low­ing the sell­off in NZDUSD, AUDUSD was sold down to below par.  I was watch­ing the AUDUSD in its trad­ing range and detected the pick­ing in demand.  So I took a long posi­tion on a shake­out and a sub­se­quent trade on a NS bar at the sup­port.  Both were nice and prof­itable trades.”  Ivan from Singapore
