    dow theory is the key to successful investing and trading

like foundations of buildings -- which should have solid building blocks -- viable investment and trading theories rely on sturdy, proven concepts.  drawing from both experience and investigation, charles dow outlined the fundamental concepts that underlie much of today's successful investing and trading methods. dow was co-founder of dow jones & company, and was the first editor of the wall street journal. his articles on investment and trading appeared in the journal from 1900 to 1902.

dow was one of the first to concisely answer the age-old question of "how to consistently make money trading".  if that is true, then the majority of trading problems currently plaguing serious investors may stem from the absence of a reliable source of his theories.

indeed, most investors and traders are unaware of the specifics of dow's theories, how they work, and why they are so powerful.  the problem continues because "dow theory", although widely known from its usage by dow's successors (hamilton, rhea, and others), does not resemble dow's original work.

recipe for results

just as it's hard to make chicken soup without chicken or apple pie without apples, it's difficult to consistently make money trading without a good trading method.  dow's theories are as important to investment success as are professor edward thorp's theories to blackjack success.

the golden edge

advanced dow theory, like the proverbial goose that laid golden eggs, makes trading profitable by skewing the edge in your favor.

charles dow used different tools for analysis and risk management, but the theory behind the advanced trading approach he introduced around 1900 is not unlike that of an inventory-control model.  edward thorp's successful attack on blackjack in the 60's applies a similar approach in a casino environment (effectively transforming a negative expectation game into one with a profitable outcome).

estimating an edge by analyzing market action and risk to determine who's winning "the tug-of-war" (as in dow's approach), or deducing your advantage by counting cards (as in thorp's blackjack approach) provides very useful information.  however, the ability to transform this information into gold lies primarily in how you use it.  the reason both approaches are successful is that they excel at specifying when and how to put money on the table -- and how to take it off.

it works much like an inventory-control model

in trading, your inventory consists of your money, and your control method is the edge your trading approach provides, if any.  knowing what your edge is -- as well as the best way to exploit it -- is crucial to profitably turning over your inventory.

in advanced dow theory, you'll find a practical approach to investing and trading that provides you both the information you need to maintain your edge and the "manual" on how to use it.  with dow theory reports, you can work to achieve "the golden edge": the handling of assets such as stocks, bonds, and futures contracts according to their favorable edges -- in a manner that provides profitable results.

trading edges are related to risk; when you work at effecting the golden edge, you learn to excel at managing both your edge and your risk.  and that's the most viable route to producing absolute returns.

in advanced dow theory, our "how to" will help give you that golden edge you need to systematically select, enter, and exit your trades more profitably.

a successful method of market analysis for trading and investment should provide concrete benefits that translate into significant profits.  with dow theory reports, you can easily distinguish between favorable and unfavorable market conditions, and consistently benefit from a strategy that exploits information while risking only about 1% per trade.

when you absorb all the benefits of knowing your mathematical advantage on every single trade, you'll realize that it's the best way to invest or trade.  those well-told stories of why stocks or futures contracts are due for a rise or fall,  or other economic predictions, news reports, fundamental information, or technical analysis signals will all be far less useful in comparison.

why dow theory reports is a major paradigm shift

this shift draws on a concise formula for making money in speculative markets, whether those markets are going up or down.  taking small risks and repeatedly replicating an edge provide absolute returns.  of course there is greater uncertainty in trading than in running a casino, but knowing and using an advantage is the same principle that makes the "house" so profitable.
