And… we’re back….

I’ve been away from blogging and Twitter for a few weeks for a number of reasons.

First of all, I have been working on a new Advanced Technical Analysis program which expands our training program at SMB with tools that are applicable to all asset classes and all timeframes. I’m excited about this project as it is the distillation of many years of my work. Also, it does make you think—what is “advanced” trading or “advanced” technical analysis? My argument is that advanced is actually a simplification—doing the same simple, basic building blocks over and over. I think we’re going to air a section on moving averages on this weekend’s SMB University on StockTwits TV, so check that out if you get a chance.

Secondly, we are very close to finally bringing the SMB Radar to market. I know, from conversations I have had with many of you, that there is a lot of interest in this product. Sorry about the delay, but we are now very, very close!

Lastly, I’m pleased to announce that I just signed a book contract with Wiley. We’re working with the title of Technical Analysis: Theory and Practice, though that will probably change a few times over the life of the project. The core concept of the book is an attempt to give readers both the tools to look at market problems from a scientific, statistically-motivated perspective, and also a number of simple, practical trading setups that have an actual edge. I’m at the stage now where the project seems pretty intimidating, but, if I can pull it off, I think it will be an important contribution to the literature. Basically, it’s a book that needs to be written, and I think it will challenge many traders’ ideas about what actually works in the market.

I will be blogging more frequently, but will also be writing much shorter blogs. In many of these, I will be looking for dialogue with our readers, so please comment and share ideas if you feel so inspired (or provoked?) I’ll also probably just share some random thoughts from time to time, so expect to see blogs on a wider range of topics from me.

  1. Looking forward to the posts and the book. I find your topics to be the most thought-provoking and they really challenge my beliefs on trading.

  2. Look forward to the technical analysis project. If anyone can pull it off it is definitely you Mike! I’m sure all the SMB followers will second that
