Hi,

I was just wondering how all those traders who are Wyckoff students came across his teachings. I for one only discovered Wyckoff on this forum. For me reading posts by traders who where obviously more successfull than I was, and who seemed to really have a feel for the markets inspired me to learn more. In the past I had always struggled with chart patterns and believing in them. (Head and shoulders etc). The reason for this was that I didn't understand how or why the patterns where forming. With Wyckoff I like the way you learn to read price action in relation to supply and demand to give you a deeper understanding of what is actually happening.

Cheers
Lee

First I heard the name Richard Wyckoff when I stumbled across volume spread analysis and Tom Williams. Then after googling a lot and finding my way to this forum, I really discovered the original works of Wyckoff. Also, I learned the most from reading all of the stickies and most-thanked posts that DbPhoenix had suggested in the Wyckoff forum.

Folks come across Wyckoff via forums, from other traders, internet search , VSA etc,
Here Dbphoenix has been largely responsible for establishing the Wyckoff forum and his contribution has been invaluable.
VSA/Traderguider unfortunately start with Wyckoff talk and then steer you onto their own take and exorbitantly priced software/seminars/VSA club, DVDs etc, whereas you can pick up most of wyckoff principles/concepts freely on the forum her)

I first heard about Wyckoff in an audio interview that Dave Allman did for Wall Street Uncut. Can't remember who the interviewee was, but I heard the name mentioned more than once in his interviews. Next, I heard Wyckoff from Raschke. It wasn't until I'd reached the end of my indicator rope (or security blanket) that I decided to learn more about Wyckoff, volume, price action, etc.

i discovered Wyckoff only recently. Hearing Wyckoff mentioned occasionally, then getting my interest piqued reading Hank Pruden's book, "The three Skills of Top Trading".
i just attended a seminar given by Todd Krueger (traderscode.com). He is the former CEO of tradeguider and a full time trader who wants to educate traders about trading, using Wyckoff.
The more i learn about Wyckoff the more sense it makes

I had the pleasure of taking Hank Pruden's classes at Golden Gate University. I have been a member of the Technical Security Analysts Assoc in San Francisco for a number of years and had heard Hank speak about Wyckoff in the meetings. Just sorry I didn't take his class much earlier as the Wyckoff principles really provide me with a framework for the markets and price movement that I couldn't find with any indicators, pattern strategies, etc.

Hello, first time here! I discovered Wickoff via Hank Pruden's book, "The three Skills of Top Trading" (just one month ago). Even if English is not my native language, I'm going to read all the contents of the forum and get acquainted with the original Wickoff's thinking. Special thanks to the owner Mr. DbPhoenix.
