Tom Williams
Retired
Syndicate Trader
TradeGuider's Chairman
Inventor of VSA |
As
a very successful US Syndicate Trader, Tom William's professional
experience gained a great impetus when reading what Richard
D Wyckoff had to say in the early 20th Century on the subject
of volume reading . Tom further developed Wyckoff's methodologies
during the 60s and 70s to develop his own more potent methodology
- Volume Spread Analysis - regularly referred to as "Wyckoff
on Steroids!" Tom Williams has been energetically applying
his unique methodologies for the last 30 years to the Stocks,
FOREX and Futures markets.
He
retired from professional trading to take up a number of commercial
ventures. However, Tom's real ambition was to help traders
operate in a more informed way, and this idea formed the basis
of his software development company he set up 14 years ago.
Tom has spent many years refining the signals in for the product
that now forms the TradeGuider range of Software Systems.

David Blundell
Professional
Trader & CEO
TradeGuider Systems Australia |
David
is a full time systems trader, based in Melbourne, Australia,
primarily focusing on stock derivatives.
He
is passionate believer in the concepts of mind, methods and
money management as they apply to trading in a systematic
yet calm approach to market engagement.
His
own trading journey goes back 15 years or so with him writing
systems for commercial organisations as a software developer,
his shedding of fundamental analysis as a means to analyse
markets, then a period of extensive writing and testing of
every type of technical trading analysis system available.
He was always concerned that technicals were not the complete
answer and wondered what the picket fence called volume at
the bottom of a chart was all about. He then discovered Volume
Spread Analysis as the missing piece of the jigsaw and it
all clicked into place.
Now
he combines VSA with Elliott Wave with his own proprietary
trading platform for his own trading and a few select clients
for whom he manages money as a licensed derivatives advisor.
