Christina May "Candy" Schaap 1954 - 2010

Hi Folks,

I just received sad news that Candy Schaap died on New Year's Day. For those that didn't know her, Candy and her husband, Dr. Charles Schaap, are known to many through the book ADXcellence, as well as the teaching she conducted through seminars and through their private group at Telechart Platinum. Candy was a very generous teacher, and while ADX was her indicator of choice, she was a consummate price action trader. She well knew and taught well the path of Higher Highs and Higher Lows, and Lower Highs and Lower Lows.

You can view her obituary here:

Her husband shared this quote from her made during her last days in the newsletter he sent this morning:

"My life has been like a trade; I got stopped out sooner than I wanted, but at least I was profitable." - Candy Schaap

I know many here are suspicious of those who vend their wares to the trading world, but Candy and her husband are truly, truly among the few good ones.

God Bless,

Thales

Thank you Thales, I didn't know at all. I just discovered the couple a few weeks ago thru Investopedia and loved the way they present things. I attended the webinar of Dr Schaap last wednesday, but was not aware the lady is no longer here. Very sad.

Do you still follow their methods ?

Happy new year
