Morning Announcements

8:20-9:35   Charles Browne - Price Action Strategies.
In this presentation you will learn how to effectively read price charts without any indicators. Charles will discuss a range of techniques that enable you to understand and take advantage of underlying market sentiment. Learn how to: identify panic, greed and indecision; know in advance that a sideways range is about begin; recognise the market sometimes shows weakness immediately before strength, identify in advance the likely direction of the breakout from a pattern; and identify in advance whether or not a breakout is likely to fail.
 
9:35-10:50   Colin Nicholson - Mind over Matter
There are many things to learn and master in becoming an investor. After picking up the basic knowledge, years will have been spent gaining experience. After at least a decade of hard work, committed investors will reach one of the final frontiers in their investment education. Over the last fifty years, a whole new area of research has unfolded under the general heading of behavioural economics. This work has thrown out the old assumption of a rational man and looks at how we really make decisions. In the process many errors and biases emerge to which we are all subject naturally and largely unconsciously. In this discussion Colin will introduce some of the ways in which the best investors think, giving them a great advantage over the beginners.
 
10:50-11:20   MORNING TEA

11:20-12:35   John Person - Scanning for Seasonal Stock Trades for High Yield Investors
John will share his techniques for scanning for high yield returns in specific sectors and the top stocks in those sectors. In addition, you will learn how to apply techniques to identify the appropriate risk and reward opportunities and understand a simple logical process to use for your trade entry once a scan generates a buy or sell signal in order to help you gain an edge in profitability. This session will also give you an insight from Friday’s session, which discussed the mechanics of the Person's Pivots and the Pivot Point Moving Average approach.
