From: Stephen Whiteside Date:

Dear Fellow Investor,
Welcome
to the TheUpTrend.com. If you're reading this,
then you're probably not 100% satisfied with your current investing
results. Or maybe you are, but you are curious to find out if
there is anything out there that could give you an additional
advantage, and help improve your investing results. Well, you have come to
right place.
I realize that your time is very valuable, so
let me cut to the chase, and can see if my service may be able to help
you.
TheUpTrend.com is a
charting service that gives you access to my personal proprietary
charts, that can help you get unique insights into the market, that
you will not find anywhere else.
What we are not, is a stock picking service, we
are a stock market timing service.
We are focused on helping investors who know
what stocks they want to follow, and help them to follow their stocks
through the complete stock market cycle.
Here's what we do for you:
Spot Low Risk Situations
Early
Give Advanced Warnings Of
Trend Changes
Give Buy Signals When Trend
Changes Take Place
Confirm The Smart Money Is
Taking Control
Set Price Targets
Spot High Risk Situations
Early
Confirm The Smart Money Is
Giving Up Control
Give Sell Signals When Trend
Changes Take Place
If this sounds interesting, then
let me walk you through a recent example.
Spot Low Risk Situations Early
Low Risk Situations occur when we see both
Panic Selling and new Pressure Zones develop.
Get Advanced Warnings Of Trend Changes
Buy & Sell Signals When Trend Changes Take
Place
We buy on the first close above the channel,
and sell on the first close below the channel.
Confirm Smart Money Is Taking Control
We want to be buyers when the Pros are taking
control of our stocks.
Know Your Price Targets In Advance
We give you Daily and Weekly Resistance and
Support targets.
I have been watching the stock market for over 30 years
now, and I started trading commodities back in 1985, I have been
developing trading systems since 1987, and while I have access to an
unlimited number of charts and analytical tools, my strategy is
based on a very simple 3 Step Formula.
I watch the same stocks all the time and
only consider buying them when a new
Low Risk Opportunity
has developed. This is called the Setup.
Only when a new Low Risk Opportunity has developed,
do we then start to watch the daily charts for signs that this stock is
turning around, and only buy after we see enough
Positive Price Action,
to generate a new buy signal. Positive Price action is our Catalyst.
Positive Price action is only one step in the formula, but unless the Pros
are coming back to take control, I have no business buying this
stock. A stock may rise in price based on the public thinking they have found a
bargain, but no trend in history has ever developed without
the Pros coming in and
taking control. The Pros taking control is our Confirmation.
Setup
Catalyst
Confirmation
Here is a recent example of how my system
works.
The Setup
We had Panic Selling, and a new Pressure Zone
form, which gave us our setup.
The Catalyst
First we had a new Early Warning, and then came the
Buy Signal.
(All of our charts are color coded, Blue =
Up Trend, Red = Down Trend, and have been reduced in c
The Confirmation
The Pros had given up on this stock back in
early August, and now they were coming back to take control.
VERY IMPORTANT
What We Don't Do!
1 We
don't do Fundamental Analysis:
Everything we do at TheUpTrend.com is
based on my proprietary technical analysis.
We do not look at or talk about news,
rumors, upgrades, downgrades, research reports, bulletin board
chatter or a company's financial statements to make a buy or
sell decision.
We do believe that Fundamental
Analysis is important, as you should make sure you understand
why you are following one stock over another, but it has very
little to do with when you should actually buy or sell a
stock.
2 This is
not a stock picking service.
This site is a stock market
timing service, where we focus on when to buy and sell stocks.
Our service will not help
you make the choice between following Coke or Pepsi, Apple or
Dell, or Ford or GM, but it will help you know when to get in
and when to get out of each one of these stocks.
3 We do not
provide personal investment advice.
Need help planning for
your retirement, need to know what you should do about tax loss
selling, need help balancing your portfolio, or looking for a
hot stock tip? Sorry, this is not the place.
We only talk about one
topic, our stock charts.
Long Term Analysis: So
far all I have shown you is daily charts, but we also provide Weekly charts for all the stocks, indexes and ETF's
that we cover.
Take a look at this weekly chart
of the S&P 100 showing the Low Risk Opportunity Zones. Can you see why I would be able to go on TV in July
and say that I was the most Bullish I had been since October 2005?
Or what about on this chart of the
NASDAQ?
Or what about this chart of the
US Insurance Sector?
While the market is able to give us an
unlimited amount of opportunities each day,
my mission is to only focus
on the "Low Risk Opportunities."
We base our daily activity on
what the Weekly charts are telling us. When Low Risk Situations
Develop, we get cash and go shopping. When High Risk Situations
Develop, we move to cash or start looking for Shorting
Opportunities.
I
Have Spent The Last 6
Years Teaching Investors Just Like You, How To Stay On The Right
Side Of The Major Market Moves.
Back in 1998 I started a web site
called JustBiotechs.com, where I showed investors how they could use
technical analysis to make money in the biotech sector.
Unfortunately, what started out as a part time project, became a
full time job as subscribers kept asking to add coverage for non
Biotech stocks. By the time we reached over 200 non Biotech stocks,
I knew that we could not call ourselves JustBiotechs.com any
longer. So on April 1, 2001 I launched TheUpTrend.com.
Why call it TheUpTrend.com?
Back in 2001 the stock market was
falling apart, but the average investor was still buying the dips,
without any consideration for what the Weekly charts were
telling us.
With the market falling, this
might not have been the best time to start a new stock market
service, but we did.
So by calling my site
TheUpTrend.com, I wanted to reinforce one of the most basic concepts
of successful investing: that you only want to buy
stocks that are
actually going up, not stocks that you 'Think" might go up. At the
time I was mostly focused on the Canadian market, and trying to keep
people out of stocks like Nortel, was much harder than you could
imagine.
Since
2001 I've worked with thousands of subscribers from all over the world, at
all experience levels, and from all walks of life.
In most cases, I have actually
had the pleasure to speak with most of them on the phone, as we are one of the only stock
market services in the world, that actually does training over the
phone, and it is included in the membership price. (Actually, we try
to do our One On One Tutorials during the 30 day free trial, so you
can get up to speed as quickly as possible, and also confirm whether
our service is really right for you or not.)
It has been a very exciting 6
years.
I still remember the day back in
2002 when I first Googled myself, and TheUpTrend.com. It was kind of
hard to find us all the way back on page 24.
Now when you search for something
like Canadian Biotech Stocks, we also come up #1, or Canadian Gold Stocks,
what do you know, we also come up #1.
And we also come up #1 for
Canadian Stock Market Trends, Canadian Stock Research, and Canadian Market
Timing.
Not bad for our little charting
service!
But what if your not from Canada?
We are currently #6 on Google
for Stock Trends out of 31,700,000 results.
"I just
played your nightly letter with audio commentary and I
applaud this format! Charting services are everywhere on
the web, from brokerages, specialized sites etc. Keep
adding your personal touch/tutorials/improvements- we all
know markets are constantly changing and having a pro who
is also adapting is a value proposition. Please let me
know how to extend our subscription or put it on
auto-renewal."

"I just can't
thank you enough for the great work you do at your
website. When a colleague suggested to me almost a year
ago to check out The Uptrend, I was very much struggling
and thought I had better look into it. That has turned out
to be one of the best decisions that I have ever made. My
trading has improved drastically and I am very excited
about 2006 and beyond."

"I really appreciate the time and effort you
put into those weekly charts. I trade commodities and I
find your analysis is a valuable addition to my own
especially the panic zone charts. Your site is real
value added for me and for the rest of your subscribers.
Keep up the good work."
Cheers, Denis

Besides looking after my
UpTrend subscribers, I have written a nightly column for both
BayStreet.ca and myTELUS, and a weekly column for eResearch. My
research has been featured on various financial web sites and
national publications, including Stockhouse and the National Post. I
have also appeared as a guest on Garth Turner's Investment
Television and Richard Infantino's PrimeTime Money weekly radio
show.
And for real excitement in the
morning, I am now into my third year as a guest on Report On Business
Television doing the Market Lookahead with Bridgitte Anderson. (Even
after 3 years, each appearance scares me to death.)
Would You Be Willing To Follow 3 Simple Steps To Dramatically Reduce
Risk And Increase Your Profits?
One of the things that we all have in
common, is that we have been conditioned to be buyers from a very
early age. Everyday we are bombarded by tens of thousands of
commercial messages that try to push every emotional button we have
to trigger us to part with out hard earned money. This conditioning
has turned us into a society of buyers.
Now what does all this have to do with
investment success?
The average investor is very good at acting
on a buy signal, but not very comfortable taking a sell signal.
If you don't believe this, then why did the
majority of investors around the world ride the markets all the way
down to the bottom?
We are born to buy, but where do we learn
when to sell?
Wall Street won't tell you when to sell, Bay
Street won't tell you, the media won't tell you, and neither will
most stock brokers or most financial advisors.
And this is an area where most investors need
the most support.
At TheUpTrend, selling is the same 3 step
process we use to buy, in reverse.
First we watch our Panic Zone charts for
signs that we may be seeing Panic Buying, and a possible market top.
Then we look for Early Warning Signals,
which you can see circled below.
These signals are confirmed, when the bars on the chart turn Red,
and we close below the lower trend channel line. A close below the
trend channel gives us a new sell signal.
And lastly, we watch the Pros.
Our Smart Money Alerts tell us which way the Pros are heading. We want to buy when they
are taking control of a stock, and sell when they are giving up
control of a stock.
And once again, the cycle
of the market continues. We are looking to Buy Low when Low Risk Situations present themselves, and
to Sell High, when High Risk situation present themselves.
And we want to do it over and
over and over again and again.
So How
Do We Follow The Smart Money?
In our world, there are only two types of
investors, the Public (or what some people call the Dumb Money) and the Pros (Smart Money). When
we get a new buy signal for either a daily or weekly system, we
validate that signal by looking at what the Pros are doing. If we
can get positive price movement, backed up by positive movement by
the Pros, then your chances of success are greatly increased.
Prices can move up, and you can get new buy signals with just the
public's money, but no sustained trend has ever lasted without the
Pros stepping forward and taking CONTROL!
Take a look at the following charts. The
Pros are represented by the Blue line, and the Public by the Red
line. When the Pros overtake the Public, we often see increased
buying and additional positive price movement. The opposite is also
true. When the Pros walk away from a stock, we will often see
additional selling and lower prices. We always want the Pros on our
side.
What
Other Charts Do You Use?
This chart tries to answer the
question, Is It Safe?
We use this chart as a visual
filter, to make sure we are not buying too soon, when the chart is
still shaded Red.
And we also have a daily and
weekly chart called Fly Paper, which tells us where we can find long
term Resistance and Support.
What
Stocks Do We Cover?
I strongly believe in the 80/20
rule, which tells us that 80% of a market's activities are made by
only 20% of the stocks in that market. So we focus our efforts on that 20%.
We cover all the popular stocks
in all the major US and Canadian Indexes. We also cover all the
major ETF's, Indexes and Futures. In total, we currently have close
to 2,000
listings.
You can easily pick and choose
which stocks you want to follow and place them in your own personal
portfolios or watch lists.
How
Often Do We Update The Charts?
We publish 7 daily charts each
night before 8PM New York time Monday through Thursday. On Friday we publish our 7 daily and 7 weekly charts before 11
PM.

"After reading
last night's newsletter and examining your new chart offering,
I finally decided to write you with a compliment I've
considered since first subscribing to The Uptrend. Your
ability to turn thoughtful technical analysis into strong
visual presentations--unique charting approaches--is nothing
short of amazing, indeed second to none, from what I have
seen.
I'm one of these people who have sampled dozens of stock and
option subscription services over the last 7-10 years, looking
not so much for the Holy Grail, but for a reasonably
straightforward, generally reliable approach to market
assessment and decision support. Yours is one of the few
services that I think is a keeper for good! I love your
analytical agility, your continual exploration for fresh and
effective ways of presenting market action, your creativity,
and your willingness to share that boundless creativity with
subscribers like me at very reasonable prices.
Meantime, thank you so, so much again for your terrific
talents and outstanding service!"

Because I
Have Limited Time Each Day To Do One-On -One Tutorials, I Am Looking For Serious Investors Only
Yes, when you
sign up for your One On One Telephone Tutorial, you will actually be
speaking with me. This is not something I delegate, or have
outsourced overseas, its just you and me for 1 hour on the phone,
either during market hours, or on designated weekends each month.
And I pay for the
phone call in North America and Europe.
For the rest of
the world, we use Skype.
And what happens
during this live tutorial? It's up to you.
In most cases, we
pick one or two of your favorite stocks, and work our way chart by
chart, and examine each one together.
So as you can
see, I really need to filter out anyone who is not serious, or does
not fit our target audience.
"You
are amazing. You are constantly trying to improve on your
service. You charts are second to none and I have seen many,
your insight is very powerful. I wanted to say thank you and I
wonder if other traders know how fortunate they are if they
have found your service.
In my opinion it is not only the money you have helped people
make that is important but the money you have saved them from
losing on other services and books, etc. If I had found your
service 5 yrs ago when I began trading, it would have saved me
thousands. I think that people who find it can stop looking
because you provide something for everyone and that is hard to
find.
Thanks again and I can’t wait to see what improvements you
have in the future. Good luck and good trading."

"Thanks you for the excellent advices with your UpTrend
System. I have completed my first swing trade win...[buy
at the bottom and sell at the near top of the Panic Zone
chart].
I made three purchases from Nov. 17,nov 23 and Dec. 2 and
sold everything on Dec. 15-05. All in less than a month for
a net profit of $9,090.00. I am now working with 3 new
swing stages...hoping for some of the same great results
next year.
Thanks you again for your service and advice."

"Stephen, any man who is as dedicated as you are to the Up
Trend membership never needs to apologize for what any
reason. I can only surmise the hours you keep and what it
must take to keep your site up to the high standards you
have maintained. What you are striving to do, as I see it,
is the ongoing development of a superior trading website
which will benefit all manner of people regardless of
trading ability. It is we who should cater to you and be
understanding and try not to overburden you.
I determined quite a while ago that you were a very
professional and successful trader and had, at some point
in your life, made a very generous decision to allow the
public to become involved in your trading activities. I
hope your membership appreciates what you are doing on a
daily basis by assisting them in becoming better traders
and investors. "
