For all skill levels, this group is for traders who want to join the 5-10% of traders who are consistently profitable in trading the global markets. Our members learn our custom-developed trading strategies (both manual and algorythimic) which have been adapted to suit today's volatile market, so that they can trade with low risk, and take only high probability trades – we are disciplined traders, if you are a gambler, please don’t attend.

The Meetup Host Mr Daniel Byrne is originally from Sydney Australia and is an experienced and licensed finance professional, algorithmic fund manager and specialist trading educator. With a career in the financial markets spanning more than 10 years he has held senior roles in two multinational Currency Brokerage firms, Global Forex Trading and AxiTrader. Traveling widely throughout his career, Daniel has assisted hundreds of traders of all skill levels to become profitable in the markets and take up trading as their full time pursuit. He is also the CEO of a Prop Trading Firm and is constantly on the lookout for new talent to join his firm and trade his capital on a profit share as a professional Prop Trader.

These days his focus is on algorithmic trading strategies for a Sydney based Hedge Fund. Daniel trades with a focus on the FX and commodities markets using methodologies he learned from the big institutional traders and banks.
 
No, a salesman.

He worked in 2 bucket shop brokerages. No idea why that's a credit to his trading ability. Says he learns from "banks and institutions"..which ones ?? Only place mentioned he works at are Axi and GFT. This aren't "banks or trading institutions". Oh he's also the CEO of a prop firm WHILE ALSO trading for a hedge fund - I'm calling BS unless someone can find which ones.

The sh*t people write to sell their courses..:banghead: . Says he worked/works in all this places but all he can name is two brokerages.

I am honestly trying not to be cynical for a change....

That is why I posed the question If anyone new about them etc etc

Just putting it out there for comment

Well find out these few if you can then maybe I will reassess:

1. Which prop shop he is currently CEO of ?
2. Which hedge fund is he currently trading for ?
3. Which investment bank bank did he trade for before

This are all his claims there..

But the most obvious giveaway should be the mentioning of the course he is running for a meetup group just indicates he is there to sell to his course obviously. Meetup groups should be free of advertising.
 
I am mentioning Sydney Traders on Aussie stock so people can google it and see other peoples opinions before and or if getting involved.

Dear Traders,

It is with considerable excitement that the Sydney Pro-Traders MeetUp makes the following 'First of its Kind in the Trading Industry' announcement - the opening of our brand-new "Live Traders' Hub" at our new city offices.

The Live Traders' Hub will be a place where interested traders can come by and meetup anytime, have a coffee, meet other traders like them and even bring their laptops and trade alongside our professional proprietary traders, who trade each day at the hub. Come by and see the inner workings of a true "Live Trading Floor" in action for yourself.

We are an ASIC Licensed Fund Manager and are actively managing funds for wholesale investors both manually and algorithmically across multiple markets and timeframes.

Each day at the Live Traders' Hub we will run 'Market Overviews' three times a day, with up to the minute market analysis, presented by our hedge fund managers to pin-point the prevailing trading themes and trading opportunities from a intra-day, short and mid-term perspective - so you will be in the picture of what to trade, why and for how long.

The first Market Overview session kicks off at 10.30 am, then again at 1.00 pm and finally at 6.00 pm (both in English and Mandarin).

So we are literally 'Opening the doors' to our Live Trading Floor on Castlereagh St, & wish to extend a warm and open-ended invitation to all Pro-Trader members to come along anytime and see it for yourself.


Maybe you are curious to see what trading is all about, maybe you are looking to make some secondary income from trading in your spare time, or perhaps even looking to change careers and make trading your primary income source - in any case the Traders Hub will help you clarify your view of how you wish to proceed with your trading.



We are located at Level 5, 9 Castlereagh St in the city - when you arrive you will need show a valid Proof of ID and sign in at the front counter, there is no need to book an appointment, but if you want to send a message in the MeetUp chat beforehand we can make sure there is a space for you in advance.

So next time you have a free morning, lunch or evening and wanna take a look, come on in and see what is creating such a buzz in the retail trading market.

HonorPlus is HK fund, so part where he say Syd fund is lying.

FXPlus looks exactly like FX version of Sharemarket College..

Now to find which prop firm he is CEO off..there arn't many in Syd.
 
Digging up old thread here but I have been to a couple of meetups where the guys are from something called International Day Trading Academy. The sign-up is that you pay to do a trading course with these guys and you just take indicators from them. So you never actually know the parameters of the system you are trading.

I was interested until I realised they were selling a black box trading system.
