Think Like A Whale Trade As A Shark

There are three important conditions to trade successfully in any financial market: a strong fundamental landscape, a nice market structure, and an accurately-measured trading range. If fundamentals agree, and the market structure has proven itself, knowing the trading range is the only thing you need. This book contains a wide variety of technical analysis methods and techniques in order to help investors recognize market structure in early stages, identify support and resistance, and accurately measure the trading range. However, the complex world of financial trading is a zero-sum game. Someone has to lose in order for someone else to make a profit. And as there are a few people making a lot of money, there are a lot of others who lose constantly. This is why clever investors always add a contrarian flavor to their decision-making process, and most of the time, trade against the public sentiment. All financial asset classes follow a similar pattern that starts with fear and ends with greed. Smart traders enter the market when the fear of retail traders pushes prices below their ‘fair value’ and sell when the retail greed pushes prices well above their ‘fair value.’ This never-ending circle between fear and greed creates numerous opportunities for patient traders. On a macro scale, fundamental analysis is the perfect tool for identifying the ‘fair value’ of a financial asset and measure risk. Risk and reward are the two crucial inputs of any investment decision. In addition, technical analysis is useful for the identification of price trends and the optimization of entries in the market. Professional traders use both these analysis methods in their decision-making process. They use fundamental analysis to decide what to buy and technical analysis to decide when to buy. To summarize this concept in just one phrase, always think like a fundamentalist investor when deciding what to buy and act as a technician trader when entering the market. Think like a whale and trade as a shark. Successful trading requires a strong personality and a character that will allow you to trade without fear and greed. Weak hands lose money in the long-run. The stronger your character, the stronger your hands. If you want to be a successful trader, start by building your character, something that cannot be easily taught. CHAPTERS This book covers a wide range of fundamental resources and technical analysis techniques in order to help investors seek proof in the right place. Any successful trading decision must have a fundamental background. Chapter 1 begins with the basics of fundamental analysis when trading equities, Forex currencies, and cryptocurrencies. The main goal of studying fundamentals is to identify investment opportunities. Opportunity can be defined as the difference between the current price of an asset and its real value. Fundamental analysis can recognize risk and reward, the two most crucial inputs of the decision-making process. In Chapters, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, you will find various technical analysis methods with many examples and charts. Trading charts can be read significantly easier than raw data. Reading charts is useful not only for identifying key trends but also for recognizing major support and resistance levels. Furthermore, you will learn how to use moving averages, RSI, the Fibonacci Numbers, the Fibonacci Retracement, and the definition of the long-term trend in any financial market. By combining all these different technical analysis tools, you will be able to recognize any market conditions, identify strong trends, spot the potential levels of a trend reversal, but most importantly accurately measure the trading range. In Chapter 7, you will learn about the role of market volatility and its importance for managing risk and achieving portfolio diversification. How to use the Bollinger Bands and ATR when trading indices, and Beta when trading individual stocks. In addition, you will learn about the VIX Index and its ability to predict a financial crisis, but also how to use options contracts to spot incoming market volatility. Finally, you will learn about the basics of Foreign Exchange and cryptocurrency volatility. In Chapter 8, you will find information about seasonality statistics and seasonal patterns. Seasonality refers to a time period in which market data tends to experience common and predictable behavior. Whenever a seasonal pattern has been repeated regularly, it becomes statistically significant. However, seasonality reflects an average reliance on past market data. That means seasonal patterns provide a window of opportunity and not an independent forecasting framework. A seasonal pattern can be any price pattern correlated to a particular month, quarter, or semester. You will be able to find seasonal patterns for Dow Jones Industrial, three popular currency pairs (EURUSD, GBPUSD, and USDJPY), and two key cryptocurrency pairs (Bitcoin and Ethereum against the US dollar). In Chapter 9, you will learn about market sentiment. The market sentiment refers to the views, opinions, and expectations of investors toward the future market conditions. It is very important to distinguish between the experts’ sentiment that you should trade in line with it and the public sentiment, that you should generally trade against it. The greatest trading opportunities in life are against the general public sentiment. You will learn also about the Fear & Greed index, the Overnight Repo Rate, the Perpetual Contracts, and how to use the Commitment of Traders (COT) report. If there is one golden rule when investing, it’s to always diversify your investment decisions. This rule is applicable in every aspect of our life. In Chapter 10, you will learn about money management. Money management refers to the process of achieving risk control over your portfolio by eliminating the unnecessary risk, and it is a key ingredient of long-term trading success. You will learn about market correlations, cross-market connections, position-sizing, the 2% rule, the Reward/Risk Ratio, the Win Ratio, and why you should always trade small account sizes. By combining the information and tools presented in this book you have the opportunity to better understand the mechanics of the global financial markets and significantly increase your odds of winning in the long-run. Success is all about education and building the right character. The more educated you become the stronger your character when others are greedy, and the stronger your hands when others are fearful.

In Trade Like a Shark, Robbie uses his unique firsthand experience and the real-life stories traders have shared with him to expose exactly how the human mind can play havoc with your trading. At the same time he reveals his tried-and-tested methods for overcoming it, showing how to be a shark, gobbling up money from the 'fish' who are full of fear, greed and other emotions.

You will not find this education at you brokers how to section. Most likely you will not find this information anywhere on this book section on any other book store. I have paid thousands of dollars on exclusive groups and paid forums to collect the information presented in this book. As you can imagine these are the highly guarded secrets of the elite of the FOREX traders, no one gives their living away, unless you pay them a price worth their living. However I have decided to make this information for ridiculously low price, because I am fed up with the brokers and the big banks taking advantage of the regular retail trader. Let me ask you a question? When was the last time you make money with FOREX? Even further more how much money you are willing to lose, until you give up? How long you will continue to give your hard earned money to the broker? Just like you I started 5 years ago with high hopes of quitting my job and leaving the live I deserve with FOREX. My hopes and aspirations were quickly crashed and my dreams went to the dump. First I lost 1000, then 5000, 10k , how much longer I could continue like that, how much longer I could endure the ridicule the jokes of my family and the frown on the face of my wife. It was painful, sitting all day in front of the computer, until you can't see any longer and everything including the platform and your mind become blurry. I know the pain I have been there. This continued for year, until one morning I was ready to quit, I was going to give it a last try and throw that FOREX staff in the garbage, out the window. I stumbled on a rear tread, which since then has been banned, by the broker that was holding the forum. Luckily the tread continued under the broker's radar for while, and gathered a bunch of comments an support. Finally the tread from the trader X was discontinued. I was in dis pare, that was the only hope and light, I have seen for a long time. I was applying the advice from the trade and things were starting to work for me. Fortunately I was able to PM the trader and begged him to agree on a 20 min conversation on the phone. Trader X was not a guru, not your regular internet promoter mojo. He was quietly raking in thousands of dollars a month for years, he was not excited about the next trade, his heart beat was not raising before he pooled the trigger. See, he has been doing this trading staff for so long it has become a boring procedure, rather a morning an afternoon chore, something like putting the garbage out on garbage day. He explained that he learned from the MASTER, I did not proceed to ask him who was the MASTER, since I mainly was concerned with him teaching him every little bit of what he knew about trading. He didn't not agree to spend time teaching me on our first conversation, regardless of how much I offered to pay him. See, for him money was not a issue. Finally on my third approach he agreed to show me what the MASTER had thought him many years ago. What is comprised in the pages of this book will be worth pure gold to you.This book is down to the ground no no sense, real trading knowledge. It gives step by step instructions with real trade examples. This book is not your regular hog wash advice that you will find from your broker and the other magic bullets and seven step series that you see on this site. This book teaches you how to trade like the pros. Shows you how the big banks and foreign nationals and institution trade. The book opens your eyes to how to piggy back on the big institutional traders and win. Ninety Five percent of the people that trade the Forex market lose money and give up. The market is continually replaced by fresh blood like yourself. Don't become part of the statistics, read this book and get a map to success in FOREX. You can make a success in FOREX if you know what you are doing. Yes you can make a living with FOREX and quit your job. You can achieve your dreams. Buy this book and find out How?

Ever felt like knocking your boss the eff out? Even if you're your own boss? I have. I remember the day I decided to punch my boss in the face. One of the best decisions I ever made by far. It was glorious. A "V" day of sorts. I just walked in his office, looked him straight in the eyes, and did a spinning back fist. Yeah, that's right ... a spinning back fist. Bruce Lee style, baby. I missed of course. And fell. But nevertheless ... my point had been made. I picked myself back up off the floor, slotted back to my cubic-hell, and resumed my daily torchores like a good little drone. And then I woke up. Literally. Like ... in a bed. I was just a stupid dream. "Man," I thought. "If I can't even punch my boss the right way in my dreams, how the heck am I ever gonna do it in real life?" So I decided to do what every sensible human being does in his mid-thirties ... give up on my dreams. Luckily for me I had two dreams. One was to punch my boss in the face. The other was to quit my job and get filthy rich doing stuff that made me happy. Swing-and-a-miss on the first dream (pun intended). Home run on the second one. Like ... grand slam home run. I wanna tell you both how I did it and how you can be one of my "RBI"s. I've done all the hard work for you. All you have to do is quit your job and come on home. Here's my point ... You can have and do whatever the heck you want. You can, to a certain degree, create your own reality. But it's not easy. Which is why I've decided to create your reality for you. Wanna see it? Step into it even? You would if you knew what was on the other side. All ya gotta do is punch a few buttons and get this book. But you're going to have to take a click of faith.

If you are already making thousands of dollars trading Forex and make a full time extravagant living taking a couple of trades a month, then, please skip this book and go find something else to do. So, on the other side... do you live in a self denial chasing the next best system? STOP... Enough is enough, enough ridicule from your relatives and friends, it's time to show your guts. Face it, think about it, what would you think if you were on the other side looking through the eyes of your family and friends. All you see is a loser, getting ups and downs totally controlled by the next guru they read about. Doode, this gota stop! Trust me, I know you feel the pain. I can kind of still remember it...kind of hard to do when I am sitting on my yacht in the Caribbean sipping from something that comes with umbrella on top. See, it didn't use to be that way, not too long, couple of years ago... but I will tell you about that later in my letter Ha! Forex trading is not all it is cracked up to be, it is a hard game controlled by robots and banks and foreign sovereign institutions. Keep reading if you know where I am coming from... Things didn't used to be all pink for me either, pain, loss, closed one losing account, opened second one, heard of such and such broker giving a certain deal on lots opened another account, lost all the money, started in the mini, macro, regular lots... Does that sound familiar, try to look from the outside, Forex is for crazy people, crazy winners or crazy losers. Now, if this is your first contact with Forex, I am really sorry you had to hear this small talk. I would rather be the nice guy, rather be the good news bearer, but please, don't kill the messenger, this is the bloody truth in Forex. You may be mad at me at this moment, but soon will come the moment you will thank me . Or you would rather stumble on a nice guru telling you all the lies, and how he can help you open a 10k account with a secret advantage. Or worse... He can even offer to manage your 10k, if you so willingly send him a check for the whole amount. The book you are about to read is the hard learned secrets of the successful traders and brokers and I am putting it all out for you. See I don't really need the 10 bucks, but I am making sure you appreciate the value you are getting. I have made my share trading the market, paid for all the yachts cars and toys and the farm, now it's your turn. I am sick and tired of the pain in the community and all the retail traders like yourself slaughtered by the hefty brokers. It is time to pay back, it is time for me to give back and to make sure the small trader has evened the plates no more secrets and golden grails uncovered. All the knowledge I am presenting in this book, comes from the school of hard knock, expensive paid Forex forums, where real traders hang out, not bothered by the rookies. Things I overheard on the golf course? Tell me about that, one of the guys I used to golf with executed only one trade a month, we used to call him the "ONE TRADE GUY..". How ridiculous that is? Hanging around, playing golf all month until a certain currency goes to a such and such monthly level, and pull the trigger to wipe out all the people with red eyes staring at the screens day and night, fighting with their spouses, wasting their lives in front of the broker platforms. I know what you are thinking...this guy is full of it! Well, I am fed up with the usual story that hits every newbie trader like you and I don't want you to have anything to do with it. So, I am giving you a choice: take this book read it, study and devour every single strategy, because is real, out of the trenches uncompromised, winning truth coming from a real trader. Take the leap of faith, you are a couple mouse clicks away from finding the real freedom and trading like a pro. Take the click of faith! See you on the other side! Trader X

The Darwin Elasmobranch Biodiversity Conservation and Management project in Sabah held a three-day international seminar that included a one-day workshop in order to highlight freshwater and coastal elasmobranch conservation issues in the region and worldwide, to disseminate the result of the project to other Malaysian states and countries, and to raise awareness of the importance of considering aspects of elasmobranch biodiversity in the context of nature conservation, commercial fisheries management, and for subsistence fishing communities. These proceedings contain numerous peer-reviewed papers originally presented at the seminar, which cover a wide range of topics, with particular reference to species from freshwater and estuarine habitats. The workshop served to develop recommendations concerning the future prospects of elasmobranch fisheries, biodiversity, conservation and management. This paper records those conclusions, which highlight the importance of elasmobranchs as top marine predators and keystone species, noting that permanent damage to shark and ray populations are likely to have serious and unexpected negative consequences for commercial and subsistence yields of other important fish stocks.

Sharks are only a small proportion of world recorded fish landings, but they are a versatile and valuable resource. They sustain important fisheries in several countries and are a cheap but valuable source of protein for coastal communities dependent on subsistence fisheries. Sharks are exploited for their meat, fins, teeth, cartilage, liver and other internal organs. This report details species used and methods of preparation for various purposes.
