Welcome to the Free Stuff Page!

There is a lot of great information here. Whether you are looking to manage your own long-term investments, make extra income day trading a couple of days a week, or go full-time day trading.

The goal at DTS is to help you with whatever your goals are. Many of you are just ‘trading curious’, some may be trying to learn on your own. There is nothing wrong with that, it is exactly what I tried to do. -Paul
