This group will be part of CATA which is a Not-for-Profit organization being run by a President and Board of Directors. We have members in many of the Canadian Provinces and are looking for more members.
CATA meets on the 2nd Tuesday and 4th Thursday of each month. In a typically meeting a guest speaker will present and field questions from members. After the speaker is finished, members review the markets and discuss specific stocks. Depending on the evening and who is in attendance we look at sectors of strength and weakness, which stocks are breaking out to the upside or downside, get feedback on stocks members are interested in.
For May 2024 Chase Taylor will be presenting on May 14 while Brooke Thackray will be presenting on May 23. A typical meeting is from 8:00 to 10:00 ET or 6:00 to 8:00 MT.

TOPIC for presentation:
Harry Vas (author of the upcoming book “No Market Analysis”) discusses how he is navigating the current turmoil in the markets and if the current environment continues for the next couple years, he plans on thriving with the Volatility instead of just surviving!! Of course, there are no guarantees that historical performance will repeat or continue. There is never a Holy Grail in markets.Ready to get inspired to build your very own ALGO? Discover a new way to trade. It works for Harry so in theory, it should work for you.
Harry is a Civil Construction Engineer by profession. He used that vast experience for concepts and focuses on swings and real time price action in markets.
After years of trading and struggling with traditional discretionary Technical Analysis, Harry Vas eventually collaborated with a Chartered Market Technician (CMT), to develop a trading ALGO "ALGOMETATRENDS" that uses Institutional "BIGfootprints:" that generates Entries, Exits, and—most importantly—Stop Loss Levels. Years of work on ALGO finally paid off.
It’s difficult—if not seemingly impossible—to believe that one can trade successfully without traditional market analysis while using an ALGO that is based only and solely on modified custom Technical Parameters. No fundamentals are used what so ever.
Special focus on Golden ratios for retracements as well as projections of swings. This system trades all Instruments such as Bonds, Indices, Metals, Crude, Commodities, Forex, Stocks etc. Each Instrument is Optimized for Volatility using custom mathematical formulas. That helps avoid the daily Noise that throws most traders into trading decisions that do not optimize results.
