September Saturday
It’s the last Saturday in September, and I can’t believe how fast it’s cooled down in Vancouver. Today is rainy – it hasn’t stopped – and downright cool with temperature in the low teens (Celsius that is).
One thing that is nice about Saturday’s, though, is the fact that the market is CLOSED! As a trader, does it sometimes seem like you’re being dunked in a water tank and you’re only able to come up every now and again for a little air? Well, the market has been a little too schizophrenic for me recently and it’s nice to just mentally relax.
-----
From some of the feedback we’re received so far on the marketing change, it’s been positive, although some of you have expressed a wait and see attitude. We received a comment from Jerry (from the Buckeye state
) who said he’ll have to investigate this change further.
That’s a sentiment that I completely understand, and Trading Post’s intention is to deepen that understanding as we move forward. It’s always tough to understand and internalize everything when something significant happens. Personally, I want to ensure that you don’t feel like you’re drinking from a firehose either, so there needs to be a balance of communication.
There will be three corporate presentations next week where you’ll be able to deepen understanding in what we’re doing. Visit the events page on Monday for full details of when and where these presentations will take place.

I'm excited to see the upcoming changes in the marketing model, as well as the expanded training in different market sectors. I've been in the financial industry in various positions since the 80's(I'm dating myself) and have seen many changes in the industry. As an individual or corporation I feel we must be willing to grow and change with an ever changing global environment and industry. I am grateful to be part of a company that has the vision to look ahead and the courage to make the hard choices and adapt.
