“Matthew Poll Indicators to Watch Around Precious Metals” Interview Transcript:

“Gold and Silver are a unique market largely manipulated by the banks. I think people should know that First off.

I would say even specifically silver has been a market that’s been largely suppressed by the banking institutions and controlled by the banking institutions for years. The times that we’ll see gold and silver radically spike or catch up to, like, actual economic growth or economic decline or other markets like actually reacts, responsive to it the way it’s supposed to, is when it hits a breaking point.”

Back in 2008

“We saw that back in 2008, where the banks just couldn’t keep up with it. And we saw silver spike, I think it was over $60 an ounce even at that time. And so like what you if you’re looking for like a major opportunity, a major like climb or fall in those metals? You want to be looking for, not a correlation necessarily to the economy, but a massive decrease or increase that would break a boundary that the banks just couldn’t keep up with. They can’t keep up with manipulating it the way that they are.

Otherwise, I would say, gold and silver, it’s kind of a thing that people do for a long term investment. And the primary game is to hedge against inflation. So the other piece that I would add is inflation plays a big part in that.”

In Conclusion…

“If you have a sense that inflation is going to be something on the horizon, putting your money in gold and silver, at least watching the value of what you’ve earned, whether it’s through dollars yen’s euros, whatever, gold and silver, at least when we’re printing money, can print more of itself, right. It’s always going to have that tangible value.”

Kevin Jones Trading, How Do You Fit?

by

Kevin Jones Day Trading

You’ve more than likely heard of Kevin Jones Day trading – a day trading business that teaches you the ins and outs of buying and selling short term to make a profit. But if you’ve never day traded before; you may not know where you fit in the day trading gambit. 

And if you’re emotionally tied into decisions you typically make – decisions like paying your monthly bills, deciding on a contractor for your home, or buying a new car, you may wonder if you’re a fit for day trading at all.

Fortunately, Tyler Perry (Student Development Advisor) with Kevin Jones Day Trading has something to say about that. 

“We have two major rules when it comes to trading. Can you follow the rules? And can you keep your emotions in check? If you can, you’ll be successful, and when you can’t you’ll have to work on one of those two rules.”

Some people never decide on where they fit because they’re “overly emotional” says Perry. “They won’t make it and we’ll probably have a conversation with them about that.”

For those who stick with the program, however, there is much to learn. Most new day traders begin at just an hour a day, learning the rules about back-testing, [taking their plan back to the past], watching the market as it moves forward, and deciding through experience what plan will work for them. Coaches are valuable during this time. Traders learn where they fit, says Perry because “not everybody trades the same.”

Day traders fall into three categories, according to Perry: Short-term or Scalpers, Mid-term, or Long-term.

Consider for a moment where you might fit. 

Short-term traders or Scalpers want in and out of the market – fast. They’re not about sleeping on it or watching the market fluctuate. “They want in and out of the market in 5, 10, 15 minutes.”

“Mid-term day traders are good for a couple of hours and long-term traders don’t mind holding a position for a day.” These are the day traders that go to bed and then wake up in the morning to “see where they are” says Perry. 

Whatever your style of trading, the rules of day trading must be followed – the rules you have set for yourself and the rules that are basic to day trading. 

“We’re an educational company. We have our system. We have our indicators that my father wrote [Kevin Jones Sr.], and we teach people how to use the system to make better decisions with their money. We’ll help you and get you pointed in the right direction.” 

How to Avoid Day Trading Scams w/ Utah Entrepreneur Matthew Poll

by

Matthew Poll on Identifying a
Day Trading Scam

“The primary thing I would look for in avoiding day trade scams is going to be around control. There’s this association that if you’re a day trader, somehow, that some scam’s going on. I found that’s completely not true.

If someone’s classifying themselves as a day trader, they’re the ones in control. It’s usually their own money. Or it’s their own retirement or some money that they raised or earned from something else. And so they are in it with their own funds. Where I start to see the most day trading scams is where the people don’t have control.

Furthermore, the trading scams happen when people are trying to take other people’s money, or they have a “fund” people are trading. Or they have some promised delivery system. You know, some thing they were trading that was making a bunch of money, and it really didn’t.

Then it ends up turning out to be a Ponzi scheme. Raising money from other people. And in return, they’re actually not even trading. They’re just living off of the money that people gave them and never actually went out and traded in the first place.

I hear stories, probably a couple each year, of people losing millions of dollars to these types of day trading scams. It’s a real thing. So control is a big piece.

If the money’s not in your bank account, it’s a lot harder to control what’s going on with it.”

How do I know if I’m currently involved in a day trading scam?

“So if you are already giving your money to someone else, you might be hearing this for the first time and going “am I a victim already?” And that’s a great question to ask yourself.

If you’re giving your money to someone else who’s classifying themselves as a day trader, they have a system and they’re supposedly trading it. I’m not saying there aren’t legitimate people that are out there doing this, but a lot are doing it in an illegal way.

You might ask some questions. I would look at the language that was used to enroll you and getting your money. And one of the words that I would look for is “guarantee.” If any type of day trader makes a promise that they can guarantee some future result. That is a enormous red flag to me. Because one, this is a highly regulated industry, and you just can’t do that. You can’t use words like “guarantees” in the day trading world where there’s risks. It just, it’s not possible. It’s not possible to have a guarantee in a world filled with non guarantees.

So it’s just it’s a paradox. Really, it’s like this is that reality, there are risks. So you can’t make guarantees. If they use that language, you’re you’re probably at a higher risk. They’re running some type of Ponzi scheme.

Other words or language that I would look for is disclaimers. If they didn’t hand you something that had disclaimers. If you didn’t see federal state disclaimers on stuff that you signed, or if they’re not registered. That’s a big red flag for me. Because, again, this is a very highly regulated industry. And if they’re not in compliance with those things, it’s like what else? What other rules are they breaking? What other things are they doing with your money that doesn’t fall into this? This is a regulated industry and so I would immediately see that as a sign like, hey, something could be going. I’m not saying it is, but could be going wrong here, and would be worth investigating.

Now, if you’re being approached at the moment, those are the type of questions I would ask. I think “you just made a guarantee, I know you’re not supposed to be doing that… what’s going on? Why am I not seeing any disclaimers? Also, why am I not seeing anything about how this is a highly high risk type of environment or you’re not giving me my federal and state disclosures? Why am I not seeing that?”

Those type of questions will very quickly percolate whatever nastiness or gross things that are actually lying underneath. That will start to kind of rise to that surface.”

What is the safest way to avoid day trading scams?

“The safest way to avoid scammers is to be responsible and the most responsible way to be interacting with day trading is to be doing it yourself.

Now, there are places or systems that people promise certain types of things. And immediately, that’s a red flag to me. You’re not going to get into day trading with a promise again, or a guarantee that you’re going to get some result. But ultimately, the lowest risk way. And the the highest way to get the result that you’re looking for is to do it yourself, get educated.

You know, it may seem like a long road, but the end result is way more worth it because handing it to someone else and your money to someone else with the possibility of it completely disappearing. And they never even traded in the first place. That’s a way higher risk and you learning how to do it with the risk of losing at something.

And so I would say take the path of learning how to learn how to do this on your own, learn how to day trade, and give yourself time. Give yourself at least a year, the same. I’m going to give myself a year to learn how to do this, because it’s not a get rich, quick thing either.

I mean, sure, there’s some people that trade like Vegas, and they get lucky. But ultimately, if you want to have the success of a successful day trader, it’s gonna take time, and you just got to go into it knowing “I’m competing with the world around this. And ultimately, I only have to be 51% better than everyone else, right?”

Which is grade school, that was an F, right? So it’s like, you do have those advantages. However, it’s like this. This is going to take some time and patience. And ultimately, the end of the day, it’s about your returns. It’s about your percentage returns not how much how many dollars do they take into my account? And if you could stick with that attitude, you could be a very successful day trader.”

Have a Plan, Work Your Plan

by

The following article posted to DayTradeFEED.com was written by guest-author Matthew Poll via MatthewPoll.com.

Having a plan is crucial. In addition, how and if you work it is imperative. A plan by itself does nothing. There are millions of books and videos with plans in them that people never apply or have actual results around. What do we do around the plans we have and how we work them.

How to Plan for Success

I have 40 partners. I constantly see nothing being done without a plan. In addition, it’s always necessary to continually refocus efforts toward working what’s already in place. Some get lost in the noise of activity and time-fillers. These distractions can leave us puzzled as to why we’re not getting the results we’re seeking.

Steps for Creating Your Plan

The above training includes multiple steps…

#1: Write down everything you need to do in the same place. Great time managers always keep a to do list handy for jotting down action items, work tasks, project activities and other ideas. If you always keep adding to this list, you’ll know what needs are to be prioritized.

#2: Review tasks and prioritize at the same time each day. This is going to require a good calendar. Furthermore, this can be done any time of the day!

#3: Look at your list of appointments for the day and determine which are most important. Plan what you need for the important appointments so that you will have everything ready BEFORE the appointment starts. Be sure to implement step #1 (see above).

#4: Schedule your plan efficiently…..

To learn more about these steps, watch the training above!

Kevin Jones, Matt Poll Donate to Sub-For-Santa

by

Kevin Jones and Matt Poll are Utah business owners. The two pooled proceeds from a 30-day trial of their day trading program.

Matt Poll and Kevin Jones began their day trading education and coaching program back in 2008. The company has grown substantially since then. which put the Utah entrepreneurs in a position to help others less fortunate than themselves during this holiday season.

The two day trading educators recently pledged to donate all earnings from the $10 Trader Lite signup fee to Sub For Santa. That pledge was recently fulfilled as part of a holiday party held at The Melting Pot in downtown Salt Lake City.

You can find pictures from that event below:

“As always, we’re thankful for the chance to help others less fortunate than ourselves and look forward to any and all future opportunities to help,” Kevin Jones said.

“We’ve been given a great opportunity to help others and we couldn’t let that opportunity pass,” Matthew Poll said. “We look forward to doing this again in the near future with other charitable organizations.”

Future Endeavors

Success is something that Kevin and Matt have definitely had to work for. The two have been adapting and modifying their business over more than a decade. This is to ensure it can include all who want to see if day trading is right for them.

Furthermore, one big way they’ve helped get day trading into the world is by offering the Trader Lite Trial. This trial costs just $10 and allows students to experience their program for up to 30 days.

Some have asked why the program isn’t just free. Well, the answer to that is the personal investment required to help students take the program more seriously. In addition, Matt and Kevin don’t make any money from the $10, as all of it is donated to a different charity each quarter.

Future charities will include Operation Underground Railroad, Global Giving, Feeding America and more!

Everything Forex Trading Part I of II

The Foreign Exchange is also knows as currency trading, Forex, or simply FX. In Forex trading every currency worldwide is traded in a global market. With an average trading volume of $5 trillion per day, it is the most liquid and largest market. All stock markets combined don’t even come close to this number.

With such high volume of trading, you may find some great oportunities for yourself in the forex market.

A single USD on any given day could get you 1.1 CAD. The very next day this USD could get you 1.15 CAD. Small changes such can these might not seem like they’d make a difference, but when put on a large scale, the significance becomes apparent.

Lets use an example of a company who pays employees overseas. Imagine what currency exchange rate could do to the company’s bottom line. Lets say for example, they are exchanging one currency for another that is at a higher value. It would be beneficial for the company to make their trade on a day when the exchange rate is lower. If the company needed to exchange USD to CAD, using the example above, it would greatly benefit the company to make their exchange on the day where CAD is 1.1 rather than 1.15. Pennies will add up quick when on a large scale.

Like being a business owner or traveler, when trading forex, you will want to make trades with the knowledge of when exchange rates will change to receive a more favorable rate.

FOREIGN TRANSACTIONS

Foreign transactions in the market are similar to what you may have done if you’ve traveled abroad. A trip north across the border and you are converting USD into CAD. The exchange rate between the two currencies is based on supply and demand. This is what determines how many CAD you get for you USD and the rate of this exchange is constantly fluctuating.

OPPORTUNITIES IN FOREX: WHAT’S YOUR OPINION?

Like stocks, currencies are traded based on what is their assumed value and what direction that value is headed.

The big difference in forex vs stocks is that trading up is done as easily as trading down. Because the market is so large it is easy to find a buyer or seller for the currency you have your eye on. Based on what foreign news you hear, you can decide the value of certain currency and then buy or sell as you see fit.

If you hear news that will cause the CAD to lose value then you would sell your CAD against another currency. The more the CAD depreciates agains the currency you sell it against, the more profit you make. If the CAD begins to regain value then you begin to lose profit and should quickly get out of the trade.
