Quote from nitinparmar:

Is Mark Cook still teaching? I don't think he has been giving seminars on his farm for some now.

yes he is still teaching. He gives seminars about once/quarter. Last one was in June. He doesn't really advertise, but you can reach him through www.markdcook.com

Good. I went on his course in 2002 and that was one of the best things I have done regarding trading.
 
Looks like the call was good although there was some major heat on the retrace up couple of weeks after he made the call. Might be good to trade these calls using LEAPs next time.



Quote from Babak:

I just read that Mark Cook has said his proprietary cum. tick indicator has flashed a major sell signal.

(see Schwager's Stock Mkt Wizards for indicator discussion)

“At this juncture I am seeing the potential for the US market to go into a free fall … the Cook cumulative tick is the most overbought since December 1999. I spoke at a conference in New York in February 2000. I warned the crowd that this market was going to get crushed. I had two dozen people walk out on me. I said, if you are in this market get out now … right now it is the same type of market. It is like the bear rally in 1929 before the October crash.”

This is a huge deal guys. Cook is one hell of a trader and this is one of his most reliable indicators. Make of it what you will.

=======================
Mark was early;
better early warning than late.

Think oil/gas & tek sector stocks may have some more good uptrends left;
but you wouldnt know it thur:cool:

DIA-DOW looks like a polar bear sliding down an ice mountain;
and while last day/1st day of month can be buy-bullish,
DIA -DOW still looks like a polar bear sliding down an ice mountain.:cool:
 
I attended the seminar from Mark D Cook and it is a waste of time. Fortunately, I didn't commit any real capital to any of his 6 so called high probability trades. Most of us in the class kept in touch,, Some of the others used his advisory service and lost thousands!!! Sheister is a good word,, for $3400.00 spent on the seminar. None of his setups shown in the seminar work and you will go broke trying to use them.. On top of that he is computer illiterate, and doesn't use charts. Good luck!

what a surprise. just look at who started this thread. the king of all trading bozos. babak also thinks tony oz is a legendary trader, and he creates threads like this dedicated to other scamsters. maybe he's in bed with them? the only thing for sure is that babar has very, very poor and misguided judgements skills, or loves a good rip-off! can you imagine him trading ?!

I went to his seminar and for a while I thought some of his advice on setups was poor too. However, after several listenings to the tapes I recorded during his seminar, I managed to put a lot of his material together. To take an example - his conjuction trade does not work as well in trending environments as it does in trading environments. He does say that you have to treat trending days differently to trading days and know which indicators to use.

Trading is hard work and using a setup in isolation is not going to work. You have to use the setup in the correct context and that can only be done after you have figured out what kind of market you are in.

Mark also allows his attendees to record the seminars he gives, which I think shows the integrity of the man. Mark tries to distill 25+ years of his experience into 4 days. So, have a little patience and experience before forming such a strong negative opinion.

I do disagree with your opinion but I do sympathise if you are using his stuff in isolation. Sheister is a not an accurate, good or kind word for him.

Before anyone asks, I cannot offer the recordings as Mark would not appreciate that.
 
in 11 pages of posts, not one even discussed any aspect to refute the indicators effectiveneness or offered a single fact to refute mark cook. i'm more than opening to hear opposite side of the argument, but no one has offered anything except baseless criticism.
