More About Natalie

At an early age I exhibited the characteristics of an entrepreneur. One Maine summer when I was 8 years old, I decided to go out to a field and pick wild blueberries, load them into my red wagon and sell them on the side of a country road. The process of developing something out of nothing and sharing it in the form of selling blueberries to people that day is what started me down the entrepreneurial path.

Stock trading is very entrepreneurial. Traders make all kinds of important decisions every day about trading and handle other aspects of trading - planning, risk management, strategy and performance. We traders must also have a strong understanding of the marketplace. And, we do it alone - with our money!

My entrepreneurial drive is alive today, and I want to share with you how I’ve learned trade successfully in the stock market.

The Stock Trading Journey

In 1997, the firm I was working for went public and I had an opportunity to purchase shares before the trading went live, so I bought some. When the price took off, I was surprised, and I decided to sell my shares when they registered a 70% profit. After that experience, I wanted to invest the money again and repeat the results. You can probably guess what happened next - I wasn’t as successful. Participating in a stock purchase before it goes public is oftentimes a huge advantage.

After that, I began investing in stocks without any solid plan or strategy. All of the stock movements seemed haphazard. This went on for a few years while I continued to read about investing strategies. After a while, I fell into the “buy and hold” (read: buy and “IGNORE”) rut which rarely serves an investor.

In 2000, my beloved father passed away suddenly and I felt alone, lost and scared. In the back of my mind, I thought that he was the only person that would be there for me if I needed support – emotional or financial. I think it’s something that many daughters feel about their fathers on some level.

At the funeral, a family friend started talking about investing which inspired me to take a new look at investing as a whole. I shared with this friend my belief that I didn’t have enough money to really do anything, but he said even if I only had $25 a month to put into my trading account, that was enough to start. And, he was right.

For the first three years of focused trading, I remember how frustrated I was, but in that frustration was also a challenge. Stock trading can be hard. But I believed I could find a way to be successful and I have.

As the stock trading successes became more frequent, I became convinced of one major thing that I'd like to share with you - there really isn’t a way to make consistent money in the markets unless you use some form of technical indicator to help guide you on how price is moving. You can use any form of fundamental analysis to find stocks, but what will seriously help you to be successful is using technical analysis.

But there's more... if you're new to trading stocks, I want to share with you straightforward information for real success in investing in the stock market and how to protect your precious capital. It's why I built this website, and why I wrote a book about my favorite stock trading strategy.

Why I Created This Website

I believe anyone can succeed at stock trading or investing. In fact, I've become a little bit single-minded about this idea. (And, I'm a little bit crazy about charts!)

Stock trading is for many people, a “get lucky” situation. I base this on the conversations I’ve had with the average investing “Joe” because many people really don’t know how to read how a stock’s price is moving. They are speculating about companies when they talk about economic and company outlooks and theorizing about why certain stocks should go up. This isn't the most effective strategy approach. Traders and investors need to become Stock Trading Warriors and arm themselves with the right information.

Every time I think about what happened to so many investors in 2008, it makes my stomach turn. With that feeling and what I've learned about the stock markets I've created this website to give good, solid trading information. As it continues to grow, I hope you find information here that makes a difference in how you invest your money.

I hope you'll sit back, take a look around the site and if you don't find the answer to a question just drop me a note and I'll respond promptly with an answer.
