About Dave Limburg
Dave Limburg – I have been trading the markets for about 12 years now. Currently I trade full time for a living and have been doing so for about 4 years. I started out as a landscaper gardener and dabbled in trading on the side with my savings. Originally I was more of a fundamental investor, than a trader. My advice was received mostly from ‘professionals’ and my understanding of the markets was amateurish at best. I would buy recommend stocks and hold them, hoping that my guru’s advice would hold true. Generally, my results were mediocre at best. However, I was very keen to learn more, and realised early on that there had to be more efficient methods of making money from the markets. I then discovered stock charts, it was a revelation!
I immersed myself in learning all about technical analysis. I read every book on trading I could get my hands on, attended seminars and watched the market movements like a hawk. I became more and more involved in the markets and trying to find ‘The Holy Grail’ of trading, along the way I lost money, but continued to learn from my mistakes. If only there was a course like this that could have fast tracked my learning curve. Progressively my understanding of the markets and my ability to analyse charts got better and better, as did my confidence in trading, until I realised that I was making more money trading part time then I was landscaping full time. It was a simple decision. Nowadays i am a fulltime professional day trader.
Nowadays I trade a number of instruments including stocks, indexes, currency, options/warrants and CFDs (Contracts for Difference). My confidence in my trading is extremely strong and I am consistently making money. In 2007 I won a trading competition run by CMC Markets, beating 438 other traders Australia wide, by returning the highest ROI (return on Investment) over an 8 week time frame. My total return over the period was 442%.
