Wayne Montierth was introduced to trading by a rocket scientist. This rocket scientist figured that principles that allowed missiles to track targets would be applicable to tracking price movements, and began studying the available knowledge on technical analysis. He passed on to Wayne the methodologies and principles that proved to be reliable, and mentored Wayne on trading in the futures market.
A natural analyst, Wayne became passionate about trading and chart analysis. Over almost 20 years in the construction industry, some of it owning his own business, Wayne traded and studied technical analysis as much as he could. When his brother became frustrated with his own stock trading experience, Wayne stepped in and helped him apply the same technical principles to the stock market. After experiencing the leverage advantages of the futures markets, Wayne soon started learning about and trading options and forex.
One of Wayne’s other passions is weight training, and has over 29 years of experience as a personal trainer, including experience teaching at the high school and college level. He has extensive knowledge of physiological systems and movement, and has published articles in National publications. Wayne found significant similarities between the movement of price and human movement, and has used his expertise in both disciplines to make him better at practicing and teaching both.
After leaving the construction industry, Wayne’s teaching and trading skills were put to work in the investment education business for over 19 years, educating thousands of students. He is a perpetual student of technical analysis and earned his Chartered Market Technician (CMT) designation awarded by the Market Technicians Association.
Wayne is a true believer in technical analysis from a statistical perspective. From the rocket scientist he learned to trade a written plan that establishes consistency with principles that give you a definitive edge. Those principles are well adapted to successfully trade stocks, options, forex and futures, and Wayne brings a passion to trading and teaching others what was generously taught to him.
