Share market commentator, educator and best selling author recommends education as most important investment for successful trading.

Share market guru releases DVD to educate investors

Leading share market commentator, key note speaker and chief analyst Dale Gillham has released a DVD to educate investors on how to trade.

Mr Gillham developed Australia’s first government recognised diploma course in share trading & investing and authored the best-selling book ‘How to beat managed funds by 20%’.

“Regardless of what you know about the share market at the moment, whether you’re a total beginner, currently trading, or are a sophisticated investor, anyone will benefit from understanding how the market works, and how to make money from it.” Mr Gillham said.

 “I wanted to make it easier for everyday investors to gain understanding of how the market works and have confidence in making their own trading decisions. It is their money they are investing and it doesn’t matter whether you are trading yourself or through a broker – good trading education is fast becoming imperative.”

Mr Gillham said education should be considered the most valuable ‘first investment’ and a fundamental step investors should undertake toward successful share trading.

“The ‘Seeds of Wealth’ DVD allows investors to learn in the comfort of their own home or office and at times that suit them, which is important. People are willing to spend valuable time listening to their adviser to determine the next best investment, but when it comes to educating themselves they never seem to find the time. This format allows viewers to learn about the fundamentals of share market investment in their own time, giving them the tools to feel confident when it comes to making their investment decisions”.

In ‘Seeds of Wealth’ Mr Gillham educates viewers in a logical, practical and easy to follow style on how to trade strategically, and incorporates money management rules and simple trading plans. He debunks the myths associated with the mantra of 'diversification' and then proves why this strategy actually increases risk and decreases returns, not visa-versa. Presented in his trademark down to earth easy to understand manner, the strategies and methodologies shared give viewers the education to take their investments to the next level and possibly out-perform most other asset classes, including property.
