The SEMI Trading Collective
Posted by Mark on October 16, 2016 at 06:16 | Last modified: September 21, 2016 13:37Greetings everyone!
In the time since our last contact, I have teamed up with a full-time retail option trader to organize this group. After lengthy discussion, we have decided to change our focus.
Welcome to the Southeastern Michigan (SEMI) Trading Collective. Our main goal is to promote financial literacy with a focus on trading and personal portfolio management.
We hope this group will be significantly different from other trading-related groups we have attended. Among other things, we welcome and encourage participation of men and women. We encourage and support presentation on different topics by different group members. We encourage networking and the formation of trading teams.
Here is a partial list of topics for discussion:
- Conventional investing approaches
- Traditional asset management and questions to ask financial advisers
- Two main types of trading
- Non-directional trading
- How statistics apply to trading
- Trading system development
- Backtesting and coding
- Brokerage platforms
- Psychological and practical considerations of trading as a business
- Option trading
- Day trading in the context of an overall trading approach
- Risk and position sizing
- The importance of critical thinking
- Realistic performance goals and expectations
- What to know about fraud and common techniques used to deceive
- Claims, advertising, and marketing in the financial space
The cost to be a member of this group will be $10 per year. We will also charge $10 per Meetup for those who attend.
If you make this group a priority, attend meetings consistently, and keep an open mind then we hope you will come away with an understanding of finance unlike anything you have seen before.
