Click Here To Read Tom's Detailed Review
New Books April 2008 & July 2008
Praise For These Books:
"McDowell's reality-based trading plan is fully disclosed in this book
covering technical analysis, money management, risk control, paper trading, and
the psychology of trading . . . everything a serious trader or investor needs.
It's a well thought-out strategy and certainly worth the investment."
—Julie Craig, Vice President, eSignal
"McDowell shares his trading techniques using the ART® trading system
that helps you identify the direction of the market and provides entry points as
well as an exit strategy with stops to minimize losses and maximize gains. This
book does not overwhelm you with massive technical jargon but gives you a
simplified approach. Clearly, this is a trading book worth reading for any
serious trader."
—Larry Jacobs, Editor, Traders World Magazine
"Bennett McDowell demystifies money management for traders in his new
book. With these simple time-tested strategies, a trader will decrease the
time it will take to become profitable."
—Adrienne Toghraie, President, TradingOnTarget.com
"This book is the most comprehensive introduction to developing a trading
system I have ever seen. It's a thorough explanation of how to trade a wonderful
software package, ART, which I have been using for four years. This is my idea
of fun!"
—Philip Pitts, ART® Trader
"Here is a book that teaches you about trading from the heart and mind of
a professional trader. Bennett McDowell has successfully combined the ART and
SCIENCE of trading in a well thought-out, structured approach. Focusing on the
essentials that a trader needs to deal with, this book will provide an edge for
today's trader. I highly recommend The ART® of Trading as a model for all
aspiring and experienced traders alike."
—Sandy Jadeja, Chief Market Strategist and Editor, London Stock Exchange
"This is the kind of book that fires my personal testing ideas; it
features simple concepts explained in a straightforward manner. The theories
lead to pragmatic systems that can be used in turnkey fashion or modified
according to the reader's discretion. I anticipate many happy hours in the
research lab."
—Art Collins, author, trader, and Contributor to Futures magazine
“Bennett McDowell does traders a HUGE favor in this valuable book
by emphasizing the extreme importance of risk control and its vital place in a
sound trading plan. Further, he provides knowledge of and access to specific
tools which enable the trader to implement his ideas simply and effectively. His
simple straightforward treatment of a complex and often boring subject is a
breath of fresh air and a worthwhile contribution to this important element so
crucial to the achievement of successful trading results.”

"Hi Ben,
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 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.

Two-Day Tutorial In San Diego, CA.
"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."

I'm a new student to the ART Home Study-Course. First I want to thank you for giving me the opportunity in enhancing my trading skills. The course is fantastic and really makes me question the way I managed my trades these last 7 years. Your money management techniques are solid and would have easily saved me from some losses during draw-down periods in past trades....."

How to Align Your Beliefs with the Market"
By Bennett McDowell, Founder and President, TradersCoach.com*
You may not even realize it, but you trade in accordance with your own belief system. And, if you are not successful, it is because you are trading with a system that is not in alignment with your unique beliefs about the markets. Also, some of your beliefs may not be valid for use in the markets....(Click Here To Read More)
"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.....
Sincerely,
Sean B.

"Hi Bennett:
Well I am in my last week of the course. It has been very comprehensive, educational, and enjoyable so far. I feel this course is a must have for anyone wishing to become a trader. I really feel like I understand the concepts and strategies outlined in the course. I know that each day I am coming closer to attaining the "traders mindset". I have completed 2 profitable lots of paper trading and I am 12 trades into the 3rd lot, which so far is profitable as well, trading the S&P mini, and the NAS mini on 2-3 minute charts. Thanks again for offering this course to people like me. You are doing the trading community a great service........"

"Hi Bennett,
First, thanks for such a great product. ART® and the Trade Size Calculator™ work great on the Russell 2000 3min chart, even on rollover days like yesterday. Anyway, I wish to continue my subscription to the ART® software for TradeStation and in addition purchase the software [ART®]

The reason for this is that I trade the DAX 30 and the data feed for that contract is not available from TradeStation.

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…..

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.

"Dear Ben, to give myself confidence and especially experience trading the "ART" method I have back tested using the EURO/USD which is the instrument I would usually trade. The testing only included the hours I actually trade which are European & USA daytimes ( my night time). I am most encouraged by the results which are the signals I would take in real life......

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."

I've had lot's of them in the past, but none more direct and clearly designed. It's always far more difficult to communicate simply, yet meaningfully; especially when the subject matter is as conceptually complex as trading.

THE SURVIVAL GUIDE FOR TRADERS:
How to Set Up and Organize Your Trading Business
By Bennett A. McDowell ’79
98 pp. TradersCoach.com Press
In this straightforward guide, McDowell advises new market traders on how to succeed in the business. Step by step, he takes readers through today’s technology and shows how trading has become an accessible profession for those who want to develop their skills and pursue trading with a passion.

Spring 2001 Issue
"I just had to write and thank Ben for his help and support...I have known him for five years now, and my fellow financial advisors and I were very skeptical about his Elliott Wave Theory. Even though we took some of his stock tips and made money, we still had our questions.
As time went by, I came to really respect Ben's market knowledge. As my business grew, I called Ben to get advice on making sure it was a good time to buy or sell. I didn't day trade, but knew we could take advantage of the swings in the market. Over two years ago, Ben told me the DOW was going to possibly as low as 7,500 and the NASDAQ to at least 1,500, if not lower....you can imagine my surprise and disbelief. When Qualcomm split 4 for 1, he told me it was going into the 40's...even though I still felt skeptical, I called all my clients with Qualcomm. and told them we needed to sell...they were so happy we did. A year and a half ago, I started telling my clients we were going to sell tech positions, including Cisco and Lucent...of course, people had those as core holdings, and were reluctant, but I was insistent they do this. Those people were so thankful. As a matter of fact, I have since gone into another part of the investment industry, and don't have my own clients anymore.
However, two of my former clients called after the World Trade Center tragedy, and thanked me for selling out those tech positions. One of them said, 'I don't know how you knew, Mandy,' and I told them I has a little bird on my shoulder, and his name is Ben. He said that guy must be a genius.
Anyway, I'm so glad I know Ben, and that he has helped me personally, and in the lives of many happy clients."

"Dear Bennett, I downloaded 'The Trader's Survival Guide' and read it all today. I already feel a difference and I realize that you indeed put things in an easy to understand format. I have had a seminar that gave out a Trader's Business Plan, however the format was so complicated that I was reluctant to really fill it out and make it work. I have started it, stopped, started, stopped. Your business plan format seems much more workable to me and more geared toward the full-time trader working independently.
I have kept good records, however your 'card' idea is fantastic. I bought index cards and a box today plus a ledger. I think manually writing my trades down and focusing on pilot error vs. draw-down is going to help in spades. I trade only the S&P e-mini and the SPY. I 'know' where I am in my equity, but I am going to have to start writing it down like a real business if I ever expect to profit like a business.
I very much like the Survival Guide it really reached me on MY level. Sometimes when traders are not ready for a lesson, they just can't focus on it, but I believe I am ready and your material works for me."
