About Markets Mastered
Markets Mastered, formed in 2008, is dedicated to teaching ordinary people how to trade the world’s stock & currency markets. This is achieved through trading system manuals, supplying free copies of famous trading books, daily information emails and unlimited help from a professional, full-time trader.
When I wanted to learn to trade in the 1980’s I was assisted by experts and now I want to return the favour to as many people as I can - for as cheap as possible, so you will not find any £2000 seminars or trading manuals for £995 on this website !!
Nick Kruger
Nick has been trading the stock market since 1998, but his interest in trading goes back to a pre-internet world in 1990 when he attended a 3 day residential course in Porlock, Somerset with somebody a lot of you will recognise, Peter Hall of FTS. This ignited a passion for trading in Nick, which still exists today. He started trading part-time via traded options, using Redmayne Bentley, a stock broker in Henley-on-Thames, in the UK. After a few years, with help from a good friend who was a trader at Lehman Brothers, he began to understand the vital ingredients that had to be included in a trading system to ensure its success. From this Nick started to design simple, easy-to-operate trading systems, which he still uses to this day, and some available for sale by Markets Mastered.
Nick’s trading history hasn’t been a smooth ride, and after losing almost all of his trading account twice in the late 90’s he came to realise that success in the market was not just attributable to a consistent system, so began to learn about the other facets that go together to complete the education that was necessary for dependable success in the markets, Once he had put into action the various aspects of knowledge that he had highlighted as being crucial, he became consistently profitable on a daily and weekly basis. Nick then started trading full time in 1999 and realised a lifelong ambition to work whenever and wherever he liked for as many hours as he wanted to. In 2000 Nick designed a system to trade the U.S. stock market part-time for a friend who wanted to learn to trade but wanted to keep his day job. This became the “Trade With A Day Job” strategy which both Nick and his friend still trade today - over 11 years on.
In the summer of 2008, Nick’s eldest son Max came up with the idea of making his two trading systems available to a wider audience. Max designed and built the website, and put together the trading system manuals in such a way as to make them accessible to people who had never traded before. It is now 2011 and Markets Mastered has introduced thousands of people to a career in the world’s financial markets. Some of these customers have been kind enough to email with feedback
Max Kruger
Max’s trading interest started in 2005, when he became completed immersed in Nick’s trading career and followed almost every trade that Nick placed with keen interest to do the same. At the time Max was still studying for his GCSE’s, but this didn’t stop him from getting to know the stock market world. Once Max had completed his GCSE’s he went on to Sixth Form College to complete his A-Levels. At the time Max didn’t have the time to trade, nor was he old enough to, but still wanted to get involved, and also needed to earn some money to support himself through University. This was when the idea of selling the trading strategies that had been tried-and-tested by Nick for many years came to fruition. Markets Mastered was formed in July 2008 by Max.
Max co-ran Markets Mastered with Nick while he went to Reading University to read Software Engineering. Markets Mastered continued to thrive whilst being run from two counties. Over the three years that Max was at University Nick took charge of the day-to-day running of their company, whilst Max concentrated on his studies.
Max graduated from Reading as a Bachelor of Science with honours in July 2011 at 21 years old. Whilst at University Max has setup a number of successful websites in the legal, property and automotive sector.
