Donation based FA TA seminar/workshop

[Milo-Dino]

*edited
Thanks all for the feedback. It is noted that donation isn't the ideal way so I'll be setting a small fee.

Time/Venue
I plan to hold it on Saturdays: 6th and 27th December on a small scale.

*Update:
6th Dec: Full
27th Dec: Full

Please leave me your emails if you are interested in future workshops.!
Due to overwhelming response, will probably conduct more in 2015

Contents
Based on the simple set of 8 pages of notes (tentatively 3 hours, can stretch longer by abit if people are willing)

FA side:
- Economic outlook/situation

TA side:
- support resistance (simple concept)
- Japanese candlesticks
- Common chart patterns

Any donation is just addition blessing, be it coffee money or a plate of chicken rice

if the contributor want to donate the funds raised to charity then it would be good to state the minimum amount.

 

[Some-one]

good idea but definitely, it has to be a non-profit based and also, you might be sorely disappointed that nobody donates after the seminar.

yea you are right...

maybe need to state minimum amount (after all printing of notes will cost afew cents).
Nice idea to have part of collections to go to charity

If say someone conducts a seminar on Simple FA and TA, say for 3hours or so.

At the end of the talk, there will be a donation/feedback box for participants to contribute any amount (even $0) according to how much they feel the seminar has helped them.

Would this be feasible or totally waste of time and energy to the contributor?

Main aim for the contributor is to provide education to the public.

If your objective is to educate the public, then don't ask for any donation.

If your objective is to support a charity, then state it upfront and collect money.

Don't do things with unclear objective.

Personally I dun think it would work. You are counting on the altruistic nature of the participants to cover your cost. If like you said, you stated main aim in educating the public, then you must be prepared to do it for free.

Of cos, having attended a few 'free' seminars myself, I'm aware that there's no free lunch in this world. And most of the 'free' seminars are like a stripe tease show. They flashed some skin and asked you to cough up money for the full Monty.

No donations required - my company is willing to take in no experience traders and even give them some money to prove they can do it with our FOC training, as long they show they are serious about learning (100+ hours weekly). I made numerous offers but only a few bothered to come.

Of cos no one will come. There's only 168 hours a week and you expect someone to commit more than 50% of that on some 'FOC' training?? That's worst than a full time job!

Also curious.. market only open 40 hours a week. why need 100+ hours?!

Thanks for Paul for your advice

That's what my friends told me as well.

People nowadays only want "cheap and fresh"

Guess I'll just stick to educating friends I know... at least they will be appreciative and buy me a drink or a meal

There are free seminars as well that can be "neutral", because their objectives may not be aiming to make your money straight away, but hoping u can trade in their market. For instance like SGX hoping u can contribute their volume after that, property agencies or developers on property market view, hoping that u to invest as well.

Nothing is free, but objectives maybe different

Good !
I will attend and donate depending on the value derived from the workshop.

So $0 is possible if I failed to see any value (a lot of foc seminars peddling courses are like that) and I have to incur loss of parking fees in the city area and my time ..

Can you strip-tease a little of what you want to share in the free worshop? :

Nobody can resist a free workshop ! Me included.

I don't mind buying you a comprehensive meal if I can learn more in depth TA.

Based on the simple set of 8 pages of notes I did up in a single night for a session with my friends...

FA side:
- Economic outlook/situation
- Group structure / Business model
- Financial health of the company

TA side:
- support resistance (simple concept)
- Japanese candlesticks
- Common chart patterns
- Advance TA tools (brief introduction)
- Fibonacci
- Elliot Wave Theory (general idea)

The last time I did this... I thought will take 1.5hours.. end up took 3 hours of me non-stop talking and showing charts... with 1-2 toilet breaks in between

i be your fren can? I also want free lesson from u

Actually I feel the best seminars are those that give you the right basics...

There is no "sure win" method. Even if there's a trading system that works right now, there's no guarantee it will continue the next month or even the next day.

Thus getting the fundamentals right and having the right understanding of charts/FA is important
