Author Description

In Paleolithic prehistoric times our ancestors put food on the table by hunting for wild game and collecting whatever gifts nature placed in their way. They were Hunter-Gatherers. This book promotes a similar approach to stock trading. It will show how to scan the market like a Hunter for high-probability setups and use reactive models to profit from shorter-term market opportunities as a Gatherer. You will get a behind-the-scenes look at how brokerages and markets really work, and how the behavior of various market participants can lead to recognizable patterns that a trader can profit from. Part two of the book is a veritable "cookbook" for traders, outlining a large number of models for finding situations to engage in. It starts with short-term intraday setups, move on to medium-term swing trading, and end with showing how to size up in large and rare asymmetric opportunities. The author has a broad background from finance as a broker, trader, and business-developer. He is now pursuing the strategies laid out in this book as a hedge fund manager of The Paleo Fund.For utpdates on how to view the market in a Paleo Trading way, follow @KarlOStrom on Twitter, or Paleo Trading on YouTube. www.paleotrading.com
