My favourite trading videos, books and podcasts. I will also periodically provide my own free trading related content on this page
All of the content on this website will be free and for all levels. Trading is a tough discipline and there is lots of free educational content out there that can be helpful. Over education can cloud your judgement but mix this with toxic advice and poor quality and you could be in serious trouble. I will look to provide the best quality videos, books, podcasts and articles so you don't have to trawl the internet looking for the "holy grail".
(Beginner to intermediate) Auction Theory Explained
In this video I talk about auction theory from a beginner to an intermediate level.
I move though the concepts step by step and talk about how technical analysis can help you navigate the markets price auction on a day to day basis.
This can be applied to any market on any timeframe but if a market is making new highs on a daily basis it can be hard to use auction theory/market profile and volume profile to trade.
Please excuse the music, I did not edit the video it was down to the prop trading firm BluFX.

(Beginner) - Trader Dante breaks down how he feels about the markets
Trader Dante is prominent on social media and provides some great advice. I like his candid attitude to trading and he gives some golden nuggets of advice in this video.
This video explains the market structure from step one. He explains what you are up against and what you need to be aware of to make it in this game. Dante dispels some myths about trading and explains the key to self analysis.
Auction theory is once again part of this video and it is explained pretty well. I once did a video with a corporate firm about auction theory which will be posted in due course.
Lastly, I must give an explicit language disclaimer for this one.

(All levels) Trading in the zone audiobook
It is no exaggeration to say that trading in the zone changed my trading career. Reading this book is step one for any trader.
I make sure I read this book once per year as every time I read it I get something new from the book. Trading bias, discipline and loss aversion are some of the key concepts covered in this book.
Mark Douglas has lots of great free content on YouTube but first and foremost read the book or listen to the audio book, you will not regret it.

(Advanced) J Dalton Market Profile
Market Profile is one of my favourite charting techniques. J Dalton is the king of market profile in my opinion and to hear from the man himself is invaluable.
The structure of most markets can be explained using auction theory. This charting type has been used successfully for many years in the futures markets. Adding to this, volume profile is also great and can be used in addition to market profile but it demonstrates how much volume has been traded at what price. In essence, this can help you work out where the market has to the most interest in a asset/security.
It has to be said this technique can be very difficult to use in trending market but it does help to identify pullback areas very well.

(Advanced) The Alpha Mind podcast
I am lucky enough to call Steven Goldstein a friend. I have seen him speak on multiple occasions and taken some sessions with him during my time at TradingCollege.co.uk.
He used to be a trader and his Co-Host Mark Randall used to be a broker. This has given them a great insight into the financial markets and they use this experience to focus on the mental aspects of trading.
I can conclusively say this podcast alone has helped my trading immensely and recommend any trader of all levels to listen to the wisdom that the podcast brings.
