What makes PowerUpTM so special?
First, PowerUpTM instructors are professional traders. There is no one more familiar with trading stock, futures, forex ,cfd or options in Asia than these professionals. Who better to learn from than someone who has had years of experience and has traded tens of thousands of contracts of stock, future, forex , cfd, ETF and options? Many participants tell us the opportunity to spend two ½ days with the instructors is alone worth the cost of the tuition.
Second, you will learn how you can profit, regardless of market conditions. Many people have made money in the bull market conditions, simply because the entire market has gone up and up. But how do you make money in a market that is trending down, stays flat, or is extremely volatile? Conventional wisdom says that if you own stock and the market goes down, you are going to lose money. Our class will teach you how to preserve your profits and protect your portfolio from market downturns. This alone is worth the cost of admission! In addition, you will learn how to profit from adverse market conditions. PowerUpTM will teach you how to make as much, or more, in markets that move down, stay flat or become extremely volatile. It is imperative to learn how to trade in all four of the market conditions, if you want to be successful long term.
Third, our workshops place a great emphasis on risk-management. So many other programs offered are of the “get rich quick” variety. They teach trading strategies that work as long as the market goes your way. But if you are wrong, you will take big losses. Their explanation for losing trades is that you didn't do enough research. But the reality is that, regardless of the amount of research you have done, a stock can still move against you. Losing trades are a reality of the business. Our professional traders will share with you the strategies and procedures they use daily to reduce risk dramatically when entering into a trade and to cut losses when they are wrong. The risk-management strategies alone are worth the price of admission to our workshop.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, the PowerUpTM Rule the Stock MarketTM Workshop, provides specific criteria for entering and exiting each trading strategy. Most of the books, seminars and trading software offered on the market present strategies, but give no specific criteria for entering and exiting them. What good is a strategy if you don't know which stock to utilize it on or how or when to use it? PowerUpTM will provide you with step-by-step criteria, written in a recipe format, which will guide you through the process of executing our strategies.
You will learn how to find candidates for each trade and how to determine those that have the highest probability of success. You will be given specific guidelines to determine when you should enter into a trade or to stay away from it. You will learn what strike prices and expiration months to use. You will be given a step-by-step procedure for entering into each trade and closing it out. Nothing is left to the imagination! All this is designed to put the odds in your favor and give you the highest probability of success on each trade. Even someone who has never traded before can follow the steps we outline, and trade like a pro.
I am interested in trading stocks, why should I attend a class that spends so much time on Derivatives(Options & Futures)?
If you want to learn to reduce your risk in the stock market it is essential that you learn about options, futures or derivatives, as they are sometimes called. Options and futures are used by professionals to enhance returns on stock investment and as protection against market reversals. It is possible for those who learn how to utilize options and futures to achieve higher returns, using far less capital, at less risk, than those who merely trade stocks.
My broker told me that Forex, CFD, Options & Futures are risky and I should stay away from them. Is that true?
The reality is that the proper use of options and futures can take much of the risk out of investing in the stock market! So why do brokers say otherwise? A brokerage can be required to reimburse a client's loss if it fails to advise him of the inherent risks in a trade. Since Forex , CFD, options and futures are more complex than stocks and mutual funds. Furthermore, the average broker has little, if any, Forex, CFD , options or futures training. Many brokers wouldn't know how – or wouldn't be permitted by their firms – to place many of the trades taught at the workshop. Naturally such brokers discourage attendance at our workshop for fear of losing clients. The truth is, when you complete PowerUpTM Workshop you will know more about Forex, CFD, options & futures and how to use them than most licensed brokers do!
Conversely, there are many firms who specialize in Forex, CFD, Options & Futures trading and who understand and can place all the trades taught in the workshop. These firms are actively looking for new clients, and approval for Forex, CFD, Future & Option trading through them is a relatively simple process. If you have difficulty locating such a broker, give us a call; we will be happy to refer you to one.
I have a broker who is discouraging me from attending. Why?
Some brokers' poor understanding of Forex , CFD, Options & Futures, or fear of losing clients, may cause them to discourage others from bettering themselves. They fear a relationship with clients who may know more than they do; they worry that they may be asked to execute Forex , CFD , Options or Futures trades they would not be competent to handle.
Can't I get the strategies taught at your workshop out of a book? If so, why should I pay to attend your workshop?
Yes,some of the trading strategies taught in our workshop could be found in some books. But we know of no book that provides the proper criteria for executing these trades. PowerUpTM instructors have years of experience and know the answers to critical questions like:
* What makes a good candidate for each trading strategy?
* What do I look for that would make one candidate better than another?
* How do I select the most advantageous strike price and expiration date?
* How much should I be willing to pay for a particular trade?
* How do I recognize I am about to pay too much?
* What are the proper entrance and exit criteria for each trade?
* How can I tell when to pass, or to go ahead with a trade?
* How do I establish my loss limits and profit goals?
* How much should I be willing to risk in order to make a reasonable return?
* How long should I hold a trade before I take it off for a loss or profit?
I have no previous experience in trading Stock/CFD/Forex/Options/Futures & ETF. Will I be at a disadvantage?
In many cases, the students who have no previous experience outperform those who have. Most people who have experience will have to “unlearn” or change trading habits, while those who have no previous experience will be learning the right approaches from the beginning. Since you will have no “bad habits” to overcome, your learning curve may be shorter than someone who has experience. All the material is presented in any easy-to-follow, step-by-step manner. Also after the workshop our participants can get access to the research we undertake in identifying which Forex, CFD,ETD, stock, Future & options to trade. So we do the work while you make the money.
What is the class size of your Workshop? Will I be able to get personalize attention?
Many other Investment Education Organisers conduct courses for hundreds of people at a time. They would also display the pictures on their website and in their Advertisements. Unfortunately the Organiser benefit while the participants loose out. It is difficult for the Organisers to ascertain the level of comprehension of the students simply due to the large group. At PowerUp, our courses are kept small. Every step of the way Kishore M will ensure that you understand everything and have the confidence to put the strategies into practice. We do this because we have so many participants who have done courses from other investment workshop and have come to attend out course and finally understood Forex, CFD, Futures , ETF & Options because they get individual attention.
My spouse doesn't know anything about trading Forex, CFD, stocks or option or futures. Is there any reason for him/her to attend?
The couples who have taken our course together are among our most successful graduates. Trading together is a wonderful way to consistently make financial decisions together. Many times, one of the partners is analytical, the other more creative. One is afraid to pull the trigger, and the other is too aggressive. Couples have a way of balancing each other out and usually make better trading decisions together than they would independently.
Do I need a lot of money to start trading Forex, CFD, Stock, options and futures?
Absolutely not! You can realistically start with as little as $1,000. How much money you have to trade with is not important. We have many students who have used their last dollar to attend the workshop. Their plan is to learn how to trade, then develop their skill set “paper trading” while saving up to trade with real money. This is a wise approach. If you attempt trading without the right strategies and the risk management strategies taught at the workshop, the likelihood of your losing money is high.
Who are your instructors?
Our Instructors are professional Traders. Who better to learn from than someone who has devoted his entire life to making money trading. We feel it necessary to utilize the talents of professional traders for the same reasons medical students should learn from doctors. You will learn the proper steps to trading from some of the best professionals in the business!

If your instructors can make so much money trading, why are they teaching?
Our instructors typically spend only two to three hours a week trading. In the rest of the time they teach since they enjoy teaching and also since the instructors run their own proprietary trading firm they are keen to hire participants who graduate from the program and are succesfully trading to join their Proprietary Trading Company.
Do you have a company or office for us to visit ? How do we know you are here to stay and not a fly by night company ?
We understand there are a lot of other investment/Financial education companies who do not have an office or company and are registering participants for the course. This way participants risk their money since there has been cases of companies disappearing overnight. We at PowerUp have ensured that we register a legal company or have a strategic alliance with a local company and we have offices in each and every country in which we conduct our Workshops .Hence we are here to stay. The contact details of all our offices globally is available on our website www.powerupcapital.com
Who are your competitors?
Our competitors, good one's are none, bad one's are plenty. Kishore M is “Simply The Best” trader in the Industry. He is the best since he will invest his own money and allow you to trade Live along side with him so that you can learn to make money the way he writes his own paycheck.
How much time do I have to dedicate to trading?
Our trading strategies do not require a lot of time. All in all, one can do quite well dedicating two to three hours a week to evaluating candidates and then a few minutes each day monitoring trades. Some trades taught require very little monitoring. The exact amount of time will vary from person to person, depending on the type and number of trades he initiates.
How long does it take the average person to develop the skill set for trading?
On average, one should expect it to take One to Three months to master the skill set. We recommend the following approach.
* Enrol in the PowerUpTM Workshop
* Attend the workshop
* After the workshop, read and study the workshop textbook
* Begin placing “paper” or simulated trades
* Monitor your paper trades and continue until you can prove to yourself that you can be profitable
* Begin placing small trades with real capital
* Increase the number and size of your trades as you become more successful
* Expect it to take 1 to 3 months to develop the skill set.
Can I really trade for a living?
Yes! We have had many students quit their jobs to trade form home. If they can do it, you can too. The only advantage they have is a skill set that you will learn at the workshop. Many others are trading part time to enhance their income (or speed up their retirement date) without having to leave a job they love. This course is specifically designed to help you accomplish either of those goals.
Are PowerUp participants successful in their trades after taking the course ?
Do all of your graduates make money trading?
No. There are some who lose. However, in the reported cases of a graduate losing money trading, we find that the reason is that he or she has deviated from, or altered the criteria, we taught. It is imperative that you stick to, not deviate from, the criteria and risk-reward parameters suggested! Our instructors have traded successfully for years, employing the proper trading practices. We cannot guarantee that, as a result of the class, you will be a successful trader anymore than a medical school can guarantee that all of its students will become good doctors. However, we do teach you a skill set that you can use to become very successful. We provide you with the know-how; the rest is up to you!
What will I have at the end of the Workshop?
You will have participated in an intense and rewarding days of educating yourself in learning how to make money from the markets. During those days, you will have been given a step-by-step text to take home with you containing all of our criteria. You will have a skill set that no one will ever be able to take away form you. Many people spend four to five years and tens of thousands of dollars to attend college, and graduate with no practical knowledge to show for it. This class is designed to give you a skill that can be implemented in the real world.
Do you provide Support after the Workshop to your Graduates? Can we Resit for your Workshop?
We provide Live support to our graduates for FREE. Our graduates can email us, call us or meet the instructors in person. We also offer a Free Resit to our graduates for them to come and refresh the course as long as we conduct the workshop. However participants have to only pay for the Food they consume.
Isn't the cost of this Workshop little high?
Actually, the Workshop is priced very reasonably. Our Instructors spend years to develop the skill set taught at PowerUpTM Workshops. And our instructors are professional Traders! It cost them years and years and hundreds of thousands of dollars in bad trades or lost profits to develop their skill set through trial and error. They are obviously not going to give away this skill set for nothing. But what they will do is give you the opportunity to learn this skill set for less than the cost of one bad trade. You will leave the workshop with a skill that you can use for the rest of your life! And create your wealth just like most of the world's best known investors and traders manager do everyday.
Can I really do this from home?
Absolutely! Since the advent of the home computer and wireless laptops, real-time quotes, on-line broking, and news services, etc., many of the advantages previously reserved for exchange members are available to everyone. As a matter of fact, many professional traders are leaving the trading floors to trade form home.
Do we need to buy a technical software after the course?
Some of the investment education company will require their participants to buy a technical software after the course. We would not advise you to buy any technical software when you could get it for free. At powerup we will be offering free software websites where you can get the desired real time charting data for Forex , CFD , stocks, Futures , ETF & Options. We would not want our participants to pay for something they can get it for free.
