What You'll Learn in Textbook Trading
In Textbook Trading, Nathan provides some brief background history on how he got started trading and then jumps right into the meat of the course. He covers basic trading and chats room terminology, desk setups, recommended trading tools, and his favorite chart setups from both the long and short sides. Overall, Textbook Trading is well-organized and Nathan does a nice job of beginning each DVD with an overview of what will be covered. He also provides a helpful summary after each section which reiterates the most important points that were discussed.
Chapter 1: Purpose & History (29:59)
In this first chapter of the course, Nathan begins by introducing himself, his trading style, and sharing how he became involved in trading. Like most, he made some mistakes early on and experienced some major challenges which were mainly his failure to cut losses and averaging down into losers. Nathan discusses some destructive pitfalls that new traders need to avoid and some basic best practices to understand and incorporate. Nathan’s focus is intraday trading and being flat by the close, taking singles and locking in profits along the way instead of trying to hit home runs. His trading strategy focuses on producing daily income by taking setups with favorable risk/reward (3:1) and he plays longs and shorts.
Chapter 2: Setup & Terminology (37:42)
In the second chapter of Textbook Trading, Nathan talks about why he began blogging and how Investors Underground was started. For those who are interested in trading with Nate, he offers his InvestorsLive Scans service, Investors Underground membership, and Investors Underground Elite. Nathan also goes over his trading setup, which includes a standing desk and three 30″ monitors. Also covered in this chapter is trading and chat room terminology and Nathan starts with the basics, something brand new traders will appreciate.
Chapter 3: Charting & TA (31:23)
In chapter 3, Nathan covers the basics of supply and demand — what makes a stock move. He also discusses the importance of technical analysis and some of the important factors that he looks for in a setup. Nathan also keeps a close watch on former runners as these names can make huge price advances after times of consolidation. Also covered is the importance of having multiple trading plans going into the day (and what those should be). Lastly, it’s optimal to trade setups that attract the most interest as this is going to create both volume and volatility.
Chapter 4: ABCD & Long Trades (39:28)
In chapter 4, Nathan teaches you his favorite long setups and why multiple timeframes are so important to take into consideration. Discussed in detail are gearing and perking, anticipating r/g, different types of morning washouts, chasing, and more.
Chapter 5: Red/Green & Long Trades (40:26)
Nathan picks up where he left off in chapter 4 and covers how to anticipate a red/green move and where you should consider taking some off once things begin to move in your favor. Also discussed are stocks that open weak, stabilize, and perk. Next, Nathan begins to go over his favorite NASDAQ textbook long setups including morning washouts, and also explains when it’s okay to chase.
Chapter 6: Shorts and Over Extensions (54:06)
In chapter 6 of the DVD, Nathan transitions over to his most profitable type of trade — playing the short side. He first explains his favorite setups for profiting from declines. He breaks down what to expect from these setups, how to profit from them, pitfalls to avoid, and more. Nathan goes over his favorite NASDAQ short setups, including parabolic shorts, follow-through morning momentum, failing to follow-through momentum, late-day faders, and slow grinders. Nathan also discusses the importance of defining risk before putting on a trade and he shares his favorite spots to risk off of.
Chapter 7: Morning Emotion & Faders (46:02)
Next, Nathan discusses how to take advantage of emotion-fueled moves. He explains how to spot failed follow-through momentum when to get short, where to risk, and the warning signs that tell you it’s time to cover. Nathan also shares how to profit on the backside of moves by shorting pops.
Chapter 8: OTC Trading (1:00:15)
In chapter 8, Nathan shares his most profitable strategies for trading OTC names. Even though he has largely moved away from trading penny stocks, it’s still something that he does from time to time and the knowledge shared in this video is pure gold. Discussed on this DVD are multiple timeframe breakouts, gap plays, gearing/perking, short selling OTC stocks, and panic bounce play. Nathan also gives you an education on stock promoters and how to successfully make money from pumps and dumps.
Chapter 9: Brokers (24:52)
When it comes to day trading, your broker can make or break you. In this part of the DVD, Nathan shares his best online broker recommendations, how to have success if you’re under the Pattern Day Trader rule (PDT), and more.
Chapter 10: Daily Routine (57:30)
Goals and a consistent daily routine should be a part of every trading plan, and in chapter 10 Nathan provides some helpful recommendations that every serious trader should take note of. Also discussed are trading psychology and the importance of maintaining discipline and sticking to your plan.
Chapter 11: Websites & Homework (1:02:41)
