Product Description

LEFT Brain Trading technique can help improve trading confidence and performance through a process of self-discovery coupled with a revolutionary new way to set up charts to reveal the universal framework that governs all currency movements. This full-colour, illustrated book describes how mental programming can affect trading and how this can be changed for the better. It also introduces a new way to use the Fibonacci ratios to provide the trader with a one-time framework set-up; easier identification of trading opportunities; a means of identifying the size of a trade; and improved risk management. Purchasers of this book are invited into a dedicated online forum and a video channel at youtube.com/leftbraintrader. Trading appears be a good way to generate wealth. For many traders this isn't their experience. We are all driven by our subconscious programming, and much of it is negative. At an early age, we take on beliefs about ourselves and about the way the world works that have a huge impact on how we live our lives. Because this dynamic is largely subconscious, we don t realize it is happening, nor appreciate its impact on our ability to generate success or happiness. Spending time on techniques, books and positive affirmations can, ironically, make matters worse by increasing the internal conflict between our subconscious programming and what we want. In Forex we know that the candlesticks move to patterns, so the patterns must exist behind the candlesticks. It makes sense to find the pattern on the charts, rather than in the resulting currency movements. The Absolute Fibonacci Framework shows this. It is applied to charts permanently and can be used in conjunction with any trading system. For more, see Customer Discussions and Amapedia below the reviews. Set your charts, take some time to watch them and see the patterns.

2.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't deliver, June 18, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: LEFT Brain Trading: the right mindset and technique for success in Forex (Paperback)
Admittedly there aren't very many books out on Forex, most are awful. This thin volume is more about psychological trading hindrances than techniques. If that is what you're after, then this might be an ok book to read.

It asks a lot of questions and gives you much to think about. But as far as helping you resolve these (personal trading) issues, it seems more of a business card for their services. For trading techniques, the author gives his take on Fibonacci that he calls "Absolute Fibonacci". Very small sections on both. 24 pages on the first, and 10 pages on the trading technique.

This is more of a self help text. The last third is a questionnaire, reference guide, and misc fib levels. I really doubt anyone, after reading this, could go out and trade the Forex market.

If someone read this book and it helped them for whatever reason, great. But implying that it's a great trading text does a disservice to other readers looking for Forex trading info.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic foundation to a balanced life and trading environment, June 24, 2007
This review is from: LEFT Brain Trading: the right mindset and technique for success in Forex (Paperback)
I bought the book over a month ago and also made the smart decision to do the course. The best way to describe how I have benefited form this book and the course is to break it up into the 2 categories of focus.

1. Mindset
The book and especially the course has been a fantastic godsend for me. It's basically answered all my questions as to why I had been struggling with my trading. It was most definately all to do with my belief systems. Olga really gives you some powerful tools that can benefit you in your life, relationships with the people around you and allow you the clear path to becoming a successful trader.

2. Technique
The Absolute Fibonnaci method of trading, is a solid platform to use for confidently predicting the direction of the market. It's that simple. I personally decided to take the course to work with lewis in more depth, as i learn much faster when collaborating with someone. But the book itself also gives you all the information you need, you just have to read it over a couple of times and then "watch the charts", and you will see how powerful it is in it's simplcity. I think it's fair to say that once you have read the book a couple of times and spend a few days to a week watching the charts, you can really see it's true power.

5.0 out of 5 stars Left Brain Trading, Right Mind Thinking, July 25, 2006
By John Raymond (New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: LEFT Brain Trading: the right mindset and technique for success in Forex (Paperback)
When I decided to write a review of this book, I thought that the best review is to present to you my outlook on trading after reading it, and you will see how it has influenced my life and trading from within me. It is the only way I could think to do it justice without just saying its great buy it. Don't take my word for it either, others have sung its praises on this forum and others.

Suspend your judgement and forget about everything you have learned and consider these things...

Left Brain Trading is a synthesis of mindset and technique, right and left brain thinking. It is about developign the traders mindset, and then applying that to an excellent technique. Nothing that we can create and verify for ourselves is too good to be true. Forex itself seems to be too good to be true and we all salivate over it. But we struggle to achieve succes in it, because it is unlike anything else, and we do not have the right stuff inside yet usually.

Lewis says keep it simple. Develop the right mindset first. Learn what the masters do differently, they think differently!

They have the same price information we do, they do the same things we do, they just have the right mindset. There are guys out there trading for years that still aren't trading at their full potential, and thanks to people like Lewis and Olga, newcomers and experts alike are getting complete satisfaction and wholeness out of their lives and their trading.

This stuff is serious. It is the only think that can possibly hold you back long term. Isn't it? So this book gives you this information. Take it, immerse yourself in it, and believe in yourself you can be happy all the time while you are trading, that you never have to feel emotional pain, or experience a major drawdown again. It is possible, and when you have the right mindset, it's probable!

The Golden ratio is a mathmatical phenomenon that shapes the stars, our bodies, and I believe our minds. What the LBT course suggests, and I wholeheartly agree, is that when you apply the fibbonaci ratios of natural perfection and growth to your mindset, you open up a channel of positive energy in your life that can give you everything you need.

My friends it is not the market that we are interacting with, we are primarily working with our minds and emotions at the end of the day. We are watching not merely bulls and bears, but really we are watching the universe move. Currency is fundamental to the structure of the entire world. Movements in currency reflect the fibbonaci ratios, because en masse, the world creates in them with it's thoughts.

Consider this my friends before you balk and return to your stress balls, upset stomachs and artifical joys that are part of your limited mindset and coping skills. If we feel this makes perfect sense, that is very different than applying it to our lives. This is not only the only reason we do not succeed in trading, it is the reason we fail in relationships, health, and generally in getting anything we want. Taking 100% responsibility is the only way to truly take control of your life and your destiny. Also, connecting with yourself and accepting the truth about who you are and what is really going on in your life is the only way to free yourself from where you are.

The book goes into more detail about how to apply this in your trading etc...

Oh the technique aspect? It is truly original and powerful. The mindset has been writin about, (all too infrequently) but the technique is very original. It is not a system as much as it is a framework, you can use it in tandem with any system, but you can use only the framework to trade as Lewis himself does. There is a good private forum that comes with the purchase of the book. Available are 1 on 1 consultations with Lewis and Olga, and CD-ROM is in the works.

Truly, once you have the mindset, part of having it is learning the technique and applying it properly. Like they say, when you've got it inside everything outside falls into place...

Good Luck!
