Facinated by the principles of Classical Brownian Motion and the statistical properties of random particles during his undergraduate years, and fueled by his passion for trading and advanced technical analysis, led him toward the study of 'price-reaction' in the financial markets. A long and detailed analysis of market behaviour helped him to uncover the true nature about the 'deterministic elements' of 'random' price behaviour and to develop highly advanced, but yet simple to implement, trading methodologies to exploit such market and price behaviour.
He started out by asking essentially 4 basic questions:
- How does market and price action behave with respect to volatility, time and value ?
- To what extent does price action vary in behaviour ?
- What type of trading and money management methodology will capture +ve price movement in an essentially random system ?
- What strategy will give consistency with the containment of risk yet fairly insensitive and not fully dependant of price action ?
With that framework as his foundation, he began the task of refining and redefining his work on advanced trading strategies, which is a combination of advanced 'price-reaction dynamics', dynamic risk control and profit to risk optimisation techniques. Mark realised that he had uncovered the principles of 'real world' trading 'edge' that has eluded the majority of traders. He has selectively coached and trained individual traders; from intermediate to advanced traders who seriously wanted to trade for a living.
As part of his earlier and yet ongoing research, he has studied and analysed over 600 books and related literature on various aspects of trading, technical, quantitative, behavioral & fundamental analysis in his ultimate quest for the trading 'edge'. He has also attended many trading seminars with the purpose of seriously analysing and studying the strengths and implications of various trading 'approaches and philosophies' as propounded by many acclaimed local, as well as internationally respected traders and Gurus. He is particularly passionate about the critical components that contribute toward a consistent trading methodology. He dissects and dismantle many popular ' live trading techniques' that are widely promoted to gauge their 'real' potential in actually producing real profits consistently and safely.
