The Market Dynamics software and system was created for use by professional investors and it requires experience using computer software, file handling and the use of email with attachments. While the software is "user friendly," it cannot make up for a lack of basic computer skills. In some cases, the user has had to hire a computer technician to install the software and get the system up and running.

“Winning The Performance Game”
This web site is all about learning how to use point and figure charting of relative strength and it is free.
You won’t be able to benefit from long-term point and figure charting if you don’t know how it works. If you are new to point and figure charting, I would suggest that you click on the “tutorial” tab to bring up the tutorial. The tabs are shown at the top and bottom of each page in the web site. The various chapters can be downloaded, saved or printed out. There is a chapter on the Performance Alarm, a unique feature of Market Dynamics, which should be of interest to all investors especially performance oriented, institutional portfolio managers. There are several chapters in the tutorial.
If you want to get into the meat of P&F charting then I suggest that you click on the “free book” tab to bring up the ebook “Winning The Performance Game.” It can also be downloaded, printed out or saved. If you print it out you should understand that it is over 200 pages long, so it will take some time to print.
If you are primarily interested in topics about portfolio management, then click on the “weekly essay” tab and select an article about portfolio management. These essays have been written over the past two years and were sent to clients as a newsletter. They are short, only one page, and cover useful observations about portfolio management.
For those who are well acquainted with P&F charting, there are over 300 case studies covering how the p&f charts of relative strength have performed over the past four and a half years. To view the case studies click on the "case histories" tab. These also can be downloaded, printed out or saved.
If you save a document it can be emailed to friends and associates or viewed later.
Many investors are interested in investing in ETFs and every week a copy of my ETF report is posted to the web site. This report covers the p&f charts on over 200 ETFs every week.
The “second opinion” tab is very educational in that it covers Wall Street analyst’s opinions on stocks and the condition of the long-term trend of relative strength as shown on the chart. This tab is updated daily as new reports are prepared. I think every investor needs to develop a second opinion on a stock before buying it. Wall Street analysts are often very wrong in their recommendations and they hardly ever tell you when to sell.
As you move around in the web site, I am sure you will discover interesting material that is suitable for beginning investors up to sophisticated institutional portfolio managers. It takes time to learn p&f charting of relative strength but I am sure you will find it worth your time and effort. If you decide to pursue p&f charting of relative strength, you can sign up for the free trial of the Market Dynamics service but you need to learn how p&f charting works or the free trial won’t mean much.

What Is Market Dynamics?
Market Dynamics is an institutional investment management service that was developed for professional investors by a professional investment manager and CFA with over 40 years experience in the investment markets. It is a software package that utilizes long-term point and figure charts of relative strength. Included in the daily updates that keep the software current, are various screens that are designed to help the investor identify stocks with positive relative strength trends that are suitable for purchase as long-term investments. The software is used by the developer to prepare special reports on various topics and sectors of the stock market and several of these special reports can be found on the various tabs at the top and bottom of the pages on this web site.
The most important question in all of investment management is, "are you being adequately compensated for taking the risk of owning that stock?"
Many investor don't know how to answer that question so it never gets asked or answered. The answer to that question can be reached using long-term point and figure charts of relative strength because point and figure charts provide a graphical representation of risk and return on the same chart. A discussion of how this works can be found in my book "Winning The Performance Game" which can be viewed on the "free book" tab that is shown in the tabs at the top and bottom of each page of this web site.
It is the responsibility of each investor to verify that he is being adequately compensated for the risk of owning a stock. The long-term trends shown on the relative strength P&F charts will provide the answer to that question. Investors can be expert accountants, talented financial analysts and even a good economist and know the management of a company extremely well, and yet considerable risk remains in each stock investment. There is no known way to invest "risk-free."
A couple of charts will show the difference between adequate compensation and inadequate compensation.
There is a tremendous amount of material on this web site so take your time and be sure to use the tabs at the top and bottom of each page

The following link is to a copy of a Market Dynamics portfolio management essay from earlier this year. This letter is about the Random Walk and stocks. Click on the link to bring up the essay and it can be printed out or forwarded for circulation. This essay will almost certainly offend many followers of orthodox financial theories about stocks. My intent was not to offend my academic friends, but to get at the truth. Additional material about Market Dynamics follows this link to the essay.
