Your forward vision, especially in the last few, has proved to be absolutely
spot-on. Your newsletter is one of the very best investments I have ever
made. A very big 'thank you' for the fine effort that you are putting
into producing it. I hope that you will be able to continue therewith
for a long time to come."

excellent. The structured format you use is ideal for knowledge and trading
skills transfer. I can't imagine a better training vehicle than your newsletters.

"Trying to be a part time trader has proven quite successful as Colin's
weekly updates keep me sane and informed at the same time. I find the
technical assessments spot on 90% of the time. I've has 8 successful trades
over the last 2 months and have doubled my capital - thanks to Colin and
the ever useful weekly publication."

"Whooow is all I can say. This is the best report covering all aspects
in the local and global markets that I have come across in 25 years. Your
exact targets are priceless. Your guidance is worth every penny. I have
already got my long term sub back within 2 days by not reducing my equity
based on my first report. Keep up the good work in the reports." (Apr.
2015)
Danie V., Centurion
"I just want to say thanks for such fantastic guidance over the
last few weeks. Your input was so spot on it assisted me greatly to achieve
my best 4 week gain ever!!!!!! Who says you cant trade a sideways market
with brief rallies?" (Feb. 2016).
Danie V., Centurion
"I would also like to take this opportunity to congratulate you
on very accurate analysis. As a rule I do not pay much attention to
market commentators, and mostly conduct my own research. I do however
like to follow 1 or 2 analysts research and recommendations to benchmark
my own performance by. I have always been very skeptical of traders
claiming huge monthly or annual returns, but have in the month of August
[2012] managed to grow my account by 18 percent by mostly following
your advice. I don't expect to keep this up, but its certainly very
impressive!"
Jean Ehlers
Cape Town
"I've done well so far this year and your comprehensive analyses
you offer is excellent and made me some good money. I subscribe to a
few of these letters and yours definitely stands out as the best."
(Dec. 2014).
Eddie Horn

"I recently subscribed to the weekly market letter and recovered
the annual subscription cost on my first trade. I bought amplats at
R288 for the predicted bounce and closed out today at R309 for a tidy
R3200 profit in a week and a half. Keep up the good work," (May,
2013).
Lawrence Horner

"I subscribe to your weekly and big picture newsletter. I must
say have been really impressed with your calls. So much so that my wife
has taken to the financial markets and is likely to take up full time
trading next year. I see you have some courses coming up soon..."
Andrew Perkins

"Your column in the Finweek spiked my interest and I decided to
subscribe to your newsletter. Since the start of my subscription in
May 2003, I can happily report a 20% per month average return
on my investments. I use your recommendations... I can say that your
newsletter is one of the best places to start when selecting shares.
Your excellent recommendations convinced me to attend your course on
share trading. "
Heinrich de Jongh

"I use your TheMarket analysis report in my trading ...all the
trades I did were based on your analysis."
Shaun Moss

in November 2005, with a 117% return in this one-month contest).
"Just to say thanks for an exellent weekly newsetter, the few rands
that it costs a month was made up in the first day that I used your
simple but very effective ways of trading. The first trade was on the
5/7/06 re a short on Edcon at below R30 and to buy (back) close to R26.
How easy it can be - the profit was R10 000+ exiting on the 12/7/06.
Same day I bought a long on Harmony near R110, the next day exiting
at R117 for a profit of R5 000. I'm a fulltime trader homebased for
the past 6 yrs and the insight and easy to understand ways with which
u explain things makes it a joy to use. Thanks again and keep up the
good work."
Andre Olivier

"Thank you for an exceptional newsletter. It is clear, concise
and unequivocal. It is the best that I have seen in my 25 years of investing/trading
on the JSE."
Michael Friedman
Durban
"Great newsletter. Since joining nearly a month ago, I have read
all the back issues as well, and then looked to see how the various
charts have actually gone relative to your predictions. Most of the
time, you are spot on.
I have read a lot in the past (both here and in the UK) and I must compliment
you on the quality of your newsletter. The length of the newsletter
is just right, the layout is excellent, your summaries and comment is
well structured and properly motivated...
Your explanations of the charting terms and the charts themselves are
geared at all levels of technical knowledge. i.e. you explain the terms
and occurrences so that a layman can understand, but also in a way that
a person with a greater level of knowledge gains further insight and
does not become bored...
Thanks once again for producing a quality publication that is also value
for money".
Darryl Humphris
Johannesburg
"Thank you for an excellent service. How can one argue with 324%
for the year?!!"
Johann Clur
Mosselbay
"I'm very happy with the way you lay out your news letter and I've
found nothing else like it on the market....Based on this weeks letter,
I bought into a Harmony warrant yesterday at 106c and its now running
at about 141c, thanks very much!"
Steve Benham
Cape Town
"I really enjoy the weekly reports and by applying your advice
have grown my portfolio by about 37% since the middle of December ('05)
(ie. in five weeks). I can't believe how accurate your predictions are.
Thanks for giving me new hope to succeed in the equity market."
Walter Mandemaker

"Your newsletters are immensely rewarding and I look forward to
them every week. My part time trading has turned profitable (despite
the few bumps in the road, school fees, which I am so grateful that
you coached me through) and we have just enjoyed a superb family weekend
in the Midlands thanks to "The Market"."
Andy Thorvaldsen
Durban
"You advised at R160 that I should buy Implats, target R203. At
some stages it took nerves of steel but you were right again... Then
Naspers you said buy from R219 .... you gave 3 targets it hit it with
precision (R242 one of them) Thanks AGAIN.
David Blaauw
Pretoria
"I have been following the market since 1980 and have subscribed
to various "market letters" and advisory services over the years. And
your service and market analysis is the BEST ever. My highlight of the
week is Wednesday at 16h45 when you release your weekly letter. Please
subscribe me for another 12 months."
Leo Colarossi
Durban
"I am extremely impressed with your newsletter! It is much more
than I hoped for. I could'nt decide if I should subscribe between yours
and [name withheld]'s, but I was and is very impressed with your
analysis in FinWeek... I hope to put to good use your recommendation
of only investing in the strongest shares in the strongest sectors and
those making new highs.
I can only thank you again for the quality and amount of information
in your newsletter. I hope to attend one of your courses later in the
year. Keep up the good work!"
Dr Hendrik Vogel
Pretoria
"[Thank you] for the weekly market report. I cannot wait for Wednesdays
to download the report. As I am still a novice there are a few things
I still struggle with but I have already bought some Mustek and Lib-hold
shares on the reports advice. I think the report is excellent."
Dr Ferdinand Postma
Pretoria
"I must say to you that I received much more than my money's worth
from your news letters during the past year. I have been looking at
shares for many years. I have tried many newsletters, mostly with little
or very limited success. I have even tried to have my portfolio managed
for me - with very dissapointing results. At the time when I stumbled
on your service I had removed my funds from the market. I again committed
a limited amount to the market on the strenght of your advice. This
sum has now more than trebled. I partiularly like the feature 'Concerning
recent recommendations'. I realise that a lot of effort and time goes
into your newsletters but I just hope, and pray, that you will have
the strength to carry on with this (to me) very valuable work."
Gideon Steyn
Ermelo
"I thought I would just let you know that I think the reports that
you are giving in The Market are excellent and unbelievably accurate.
I will certainly recommend your service to some of my other investing
friends. Keep up the good work."

"The composition of your weekly Analysis Report 13/8/2008 was BRILLIANTLY
accurate; every bit of detail very applicable making the week very successful
for any trader I am amazed at the degree of accuracy in the forecast/predictions
of the human behaviour relating to shares. Many thanks."
Dirk Theart
Cape Town
"I bought some MTN warrants MTNABA @19c after I got the previous
market analysis. I always tried to make money BUT these last two months
I was following your analysis and made plenty money as an "investor".
I made R9,760 for the month. Not too bad for an oukie that's still learning."
Thanks a R9760 happiness!

position of the markets".

"I recently subscribed to your service [six weeks ago] and went
along with your recommendation to short Harmony and Brent Crude using
cfds. Well with the profits I made from your suggestions, I have already
covered my subscription with you for the year and had a sizeable amount
left over to pay as a down payment for a holiday with my family.
This was the first trade I did with your recommendations.... first impressions
count and I am suitably impressed.

you've made many spot-on calls the last few weeks. I'm trading using
Global Trader 247 and with gearing and the ability to take short positions
I've made some great returns. Just this morning I bought on Sasol after
reading your last report and it went over the R100 this afternoon and
I'm R3000 up on that trade!"
