Commodity trading can generate significant wealth but requires discipline. Unlike stocks, commodities generally increase in value over time due to factors like population growth. However, commodity prices are also influenced by geopolitics, disasters, and supply and demand imbalance. While large gains are possible, commodity trading also carries risk of sizable losses without the right approach. The document provides guidelines for disciplined commodity trading, such as following trends, setting stop losses, and avoiding overconfidence, impatience or borrowing to trade.
The document discusses strategies for independent retailers during an economic recession. It recommends reducing inventory, investments, and debt while maintaining cash flow. Retailers should work locally with flexible vendors and keep their strategic plan on track. While recessions are uncertain, they always end and opportunities arise. Retailers must be creative and pursue growth initiatives, not just maintain the status quo, to succeed despite recession pressures on consumers.
This document provides an introduction to candlestick chart analysis and trading strategies. It discusses the basics of candlestick construction and some key bullish and bearish candlestick patterns like the long body candle, doji, hammer, and inverted hammer.

The quick movement in prices makes it easy for traders to get sucked into taking trades outside their normal plan or at prices far worse than they really should. Even though the additional movement is likely to generate far more opportunities, somehow the fear of missing out (fomo) in trading seizes control of the trader and their subsequent decisions become rash.
This document discusses the importance of having an exit strategy when trading. It notes that while traders focus on finding good entry opportunities, most overlook how to exit trades and take profits. Without knowing when and where to exit, traders can face large losses or watch profits evaporate. The document advocates having preset stop losses to limit risk on each trade to a fixed percentage of one's account balance. It also suggests taking some profits on trades as they rise to lock in gains while still letting part of the position run for larger profits. Consistently applying an exit strategy with targets for losses and partial profit-taking can help traders avoid emotional decisions and increase long-term gains.
Throw out the marketing textbooks. Your role isn't to sell something, it is to help people solve a problem that really matters to them. If you can embrace an authentic, customer-driven mission, your brand will grow faster, your marketing team will be healthier and your budget will be easy to control. Robson will reflect on using this approach to scale two of the fastest growing SaaS businesses of the past decade - Concur (acquired by SAP for $8.3 Billion) and New Relic (s $5.5 Billion digital intelligence company).

One of the biggest problems facing traders is self-created – it’s the tendency to focus efforts on a sole area of expertise within trading. This could be a certain type of setup, money management techniques or even trader psychology. But whilst mastering one of these is likely to be very useful, each one on its own is just one of the cogs in the trading machine. In the same way price action ISN’T the Holy Grail and here’s why.

Making yourself irresistible for M&A: 7 tips to get you ready to sell your bu...Deloitte Canada
The document provides 7 tips for business owners to make their company irresistible for potential acquirers when looking to sell: 1) Know what you want from the transition; 2) Reduce dependence on yourself so the business can succeed without you; 3) Be transparent with accurate financials and reporting; 4) Share your vision and growth story to attract buyers; 5) Support employees and clients through the transition; 6) Have realistic expectations of valuation based on industry; 7) Get professional M&A advice to navigate the complex process and achieve the optimal outcome. The overall goal is to maximize value and make the transition process as smooth as possible.
This document provides advice on achieving profitable and predictable revenue growth over time through three steps: 1) Making revenue predictable by establishing a sales methodology and process, 2) Making revenue repeatable by creating a profitable revenue operating system, and 3) Making revenue sustainable through constant communication, idea generation, and new product launches from development to end of life. It emphasizes that customers buy for emotional reasons so sellers must help them see how their situation improves after a sale.
The document provides an introduction to startups, defining them as new and small companies that operate under hypotheses about their market and customers rather than established business models. It explains that most startups fail within two years primarily due to lack of funding, as insufficient money forces startups to search for a viable business model without the ability to survive initial problems. The document emphasizes that the goal of a startup is to experiment and validate business hypotheses in order to discover a repeatable and scalable business model through customer development.
This document discusses the importance of time and experience for traders to become successful and consistent. It notes that 80% of traders fail due to a lack of knowledge, patience, discipline, and experience dealing with different market conditions. The author argues that it takes most traders 5 years of experience to become profitable. He then outlines his challenge to grow a $10,000 trading account to $100,000 within 2 years through consistent, low-risk trades of 1-2 per day. He emphasizes that success requires commitment of time to develop skills and experience different market cycles rather than an emphasis on frequent trading.
The document discusses a mathematical approach to eliminating emotions from trading by focusing on risk versus reward rather than profitable trades percentages. It argues that a strategy with a 50% profitable trades ratio but a risk to reward ratio of 1:1.5 could yield positive returns, while an 85% profitable trades ratio with higher risk and lower rewards could result in smaller or even negative returns. By assessing both risk and reward, traders can better determine a strategy's actual success over time and make objective decisions based on past results rather than emotions. Understanding probabilities and taking a mechanical approach to trading is crucial to managing emotions and achieving long-term trading success.
The document is an introduction to a book about how businesses can succeed even during difficult economic times. It argues that recessions create more opportunities for growth than boom times if businesses know how to take advantage of the weaknesses of their competitors. It claims the book will show readers how to profit from challenges, make more money than during good economic periods, and feel confident about their ability to succeed no matter the state of the economy or their competitors. The introduction sets up that the book will help businesses get "unstuck" from stagnation and provide strategies to double or triple their growth during downturns.
The document provides a summary of 7 common mistakes that gold traders should avoid.
1) Trading without a plan. Traders need a well-thought out trading plan that includes their trading medium, entry/exit levels, risk management, and profit targets.

3) Over-thinking analysis and decisions. Traders should find a streamlined analysis method that works for them rather than getting bogged down.

How To Fail: 25 Secrets Learned through FailureTaylor Davidson
25 Secrets Learned through Failure, by Taylor Davidson at Unstructured Ventures.
Visit the post on unstructuredventures.com/uv (short link to post: http://tinyurl.com/howtofail ) to add to the discussion, share your lessons learned from failure, and view more.
Fail fast, focus on short-term goals, and solve customers' problems, not your own. Hire the right people, make decisions earlier to create options, and raise as much capital as needed each time. Deliver more than promised and stay determined in the face of disbelief. Above all, know when to break the rules.
Instead: Depend on insiders to make key decisions and develop key components. Outsiders have different priorities and incentives than a startup. It is crucial for startups to maintain control over core aspects of their business in order to move quickly and adapt to challenges. While outside help can provide useful perspectives, outsourcing too many important functions can compromise a startup's flexibility and long-term viability.
The document discusses several questions related to fundraising for startups. It provides advice on determining startup valuations, how much money to raise, interacting with venture capitalists, and other fundraising topics. The key recommendations are to raise enough money to reach the next major milestone, negotiate valuations but don't obsess over small differences, and accept reasonable offers to avoid running out of cash. Investors primarily want founders focused on building successful companies, not valuation details.

The document provides lessons from Silicon Valley for entrepreneurs. It discusses that (1) Silicon Valley has systematized company formation, financing, growth and sale, but also has high competition for talent and resources, (2) fundraising can take an average of 6 months but some "hot deals" close in weeks, and investors will use excuses to keep their options open so entrepreneurs need to get investors excited, and (3) entrepreneurs should focus on understanding their most important market from the start rather than getting stuck in a smaller "local" market.
Proper preparation is key to getting a high return on selling your business. You should begin preparing three years before selling by ensuring you have three years of financial statements and adjusting your business to maximize profitability and cash flow. Consistency in profits is also important to demonstrate the strength and lower risk of the business. When selling, provide thorough documentation in a standard process to appear professional and transparent to buyers. Preparation increases the perceived value of the business to buyers.
The document discusses the importance of buying a business that matches one's skills and strengths. It advises determining your strongest attributes, such as sales, marketing, or operations, and seeking a business where that skill is essential to the business's success. Finding the right fit is more important than experience in a particular industry. Examples are given of Bill Gates and Warren Buffet applying their skills to start hugely successful companies. The concept of "Golden Rules" is introduced, which are criteria one develops for what an ideal business purchase would possess based on one's strengths.

This document discusses several common legal mistakes made by startup founders that can jeopardize their company's success or render it "dead on arrival" (DOA).
It describes four scenarios where founders: 1) did not establish equity ownership agreements with co-founders; 2) developed intellectual property for an employer; 3) sold common stock at too low a valuation, leaving little value for common shareholders; and 4) set option prices too high, discouraging employees.
The author outlines three essential elements for startup success - people, technology, and money - which form a "Success Triangle." Legal issues can weaken any of these elements and cause failure if not properly addressed. The document aims to help founders avoid legal mistakes

PROMOTING GREEN ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND ECO INNOVATION FOR SUSTAINABLE GROWTH.docxnehaneha293248
: This study investigates the multi-faceted relationship between entrepreneurship, innovation, and sustainability across countries at different development levels. We construct a novel dataset combining measures of entrepreneurial activity, innovation outputs, and sustainability performance indicators related to economic, social, and environmental dimensions.Using country-level panel regression analysis, we find that entrepreneurship rates and attitudes are positively associated with social sustainability factors like education, gender equality, and institutional quality. However, high entrepreneurship levels do not necessarily correlate with better environmental sustainability outcomes, suggesting entrepreneurs may prioritize economic objectives over environmental ones.The results for innovation are more mixed. Greater innovation output is linked to higher economic development, but also associated with both positive and negative sustainability factors. This implies that while innovations drive economic progress, they may come with environmental costs without complementary policies. The findings suggest that entrepreneurship supports social sustainability, but pursuing entrepreneurship and innovation alone is insufficient for achieving environmental sustainability goals. We discuss policy implications, including strengthening education and skills, improving access to financing for sustainable ventures, incentivizing green innovation, and developing sustainability reporting standards. By aligning entrepreneurship and innovation with sustainability priorities, policymakers can harness these dynamic forces to create more sustainable, inclusive, and resilient economies.

that. Each slide that follows names and/or
details some aspect of short-term trading
and why it's unequivocally The Best
Business in the World.
Enjoy.
5. No build out, headquarters/committee
approval, no licensing fees, no real estate
acquisition, no staff recruiting, no
inventory buildup...Fast and easy to get
set up… Even easier to grow.
7. Minimal... You can start pursuing some
medium to longer term trading
strategies with as little as $1,000 (yes,
you can buy 1 share of Google)... Do
not underestimate what the ability to
limit your initial investment means...
What if trading really isn't for you?
9. None... No obsolescence, no 5-finger
discounts, no vendor fraud, no recalls,
no quality issues. It's possible to set
this business up virtually overnight.
11. You are her/him and him/her is you...
You can trade a $5,000,000 account
with the exact same number of
employees it takes to trade a $5,000
account... One.
13. As a trader, YOU are the client... You
don't spend your days responding to
customer issues... vendors respond to
you. Further, in other businesses, you
spend most of your time trying to be
chosen… by an employer… by
customers… by everyone. As a
professional trader, that is no longer
the case… You no longer have to worry
about being chosen.
15. Minimal... If you're doing it correctly,
your account grows organically...and
exponentially. No additional
investment needed. Compare that to
your forced savings account... also
known as your 401K. Keep you
computer hardware up to date and in
good working order… keep good
records... and... that's it.
17. Most businesses grow by increasing
their footprint... product expansion,
geographic expansion, and/or both.
As a trader you achieve the same
result not by investing ever larger
sums in more people, plant and
equipment, but by simply adding
shares/contracts as your account
grows. This is both the “secret sauce”
and your opportunity.
19. Working in corporate America, starting
a business, or buying a franchise are
usually "All In" propositions... Each
requires you to commit all of your
time, effort and capital from the
beginning. Trading allows you to
proceed incrementally. To learn… to
test… to validate. This reduces the
overall risk of the endeavor
substantially.
21. Profit in up and down markets alike...
Instead of economic slowdowns
speeding your heart rate as you
wonder how it will affect your bonus
and retirement accounts, you can
treat economic roller coasters as the
opportunities they actually represent.
23. Answer to no one, but yourself and the
market... Give up the credit hogging
boss/colleagues... No whining
customers. No passing the buck. No
face time. No Bullshit.
25. Live and/or travel to wherever you
like... If you have a computer and
internet connectivity (wired for day
trading), you can trade. Where will
you go? Visit/escape your children...
travel the world, work on your Bucket
List... work on a second Bucket List.
Your options are only limited by your
imagination.
29. No more exhortations to network…
become more of an extrovert… to
become a “people person…” to
change. You can earn a good living
AND control/limit your interactions
with others.
