    The approach is simple: When large traders want to buy or sell they carry out processes that leave their mark and can be seen in the charts through price and volume. Wyckoff’s methodology is based on identifying that professional intervention to try to elucidate who is in control of the market in order to trade alongside them.     What makes it different from other approaches?   The main advantage that puts this methodology above the rest is that it is based on solid principles; it has a real underlying logic. Far from all kinds of indicators, it focuses on the study of the interaction between supply and demand; which, as we know, is the driving force behind all financial markets.     What will you learn?   ▶ How markets move. The market is formed by movements in waves that develop trends and cycles. ▶ The 3 fundamental laws. The only discretionary method that has an underlying logic behind it. The law of Supply and Demand. The law of Cause and Effect. The law of Effort and Result. ▶ The processes of accumulation and distribution. The development of structures that identify the actions of great professionals. ▶ The events and phases of the Wyckoff Methodology. The key actions of the market that will allow us to make judicious analyses. ▶ Operation. We combine context, structures and operational areas to position ourselves on the side of the large operators.     Includes texts and images totally exclusive.   I hope you enjoy it and it brings you value.

    By way of background, a family office is a company, or group of people, who manage the wealth a family has gained over generations. The term 'family office' has an element of cachet, and even mystique, because it is usually associated with the mega-wealthy. However, practically speaking, virtually any family that manages its investments—independent of the size of the investment pool—could be considered a family office. The difference is mainly semantic. DIY Financial Advisor outlines a step-by-step process through which investors can take control of their hard-earned wealth and manage their own family office. Our research indicates that what matters in investing are minimizing psychology traps and managing fees and taxes. These simple concepts apply to all families, not just the ultra-wealthy. But can—or should—we be managing our own wealth? Our natural inclination is to succumb to the challenge of portfolio management and let an 'expert' deal with the problem. For a variety of reasons we discuss in this book, we should resist the gut reaction to hire experts. We suggest that investors maintain direct control, or at least a thorough understanding, of how their hard-earned wealth is managed. Our book is meant to be an educational journey that slowly builds confidence in one's own ability to manage a portfolio. We end our book with a potential solution that could be applicable to a wide-variety of investors, from the ultra-high net worth to middle class individuals, all of whom are focused on similar goals of preserving and growing their capital over time. DIY Financial Advisor is a unique resource. This book is the only comprehensive guide to implementing simple quantitative models that can beat the experts. And it comes at the perfect time, as the investment industry is undergoing a significant shift due in part to the use of automated investment strategies that do not require a financial advisor's involvement. DIY Financial Advisor is an essential text that guides you in making your money work for you—not for someone else!
