Who are we?
Hello, I’m Kevin Wadsworth, chart trading since 2008 (over 15 years experience).
I have over 30 years experience as a professional meteorologist producing forecasts in a variety of civilian and military environments, and working with the emergency response community, along with delivering training here in the UK and overseas as part of large international projects.
I also have broadcasting experience (National TV, local TV, BBC Radio and online).
I’m based in the UK and really look forward to sharing my expertise
Hi to all! I’m Patrick Karim and have been chart trading since since 2007 (over 16 years experience).
Had a fulfilling 20 year career as an Unix/Linux systems engineer. This helped me refine my analytical approach to chart trading.
Closer you are to what actually matters, more efficient you can be. And of course, those are the actual price charts!
I’m based in Québec, now fully dedicated to chart trading and mentoring
About this website…
Firstly, thank you so much for showing interest in our charting community. However you found us, we’re delighted to see you here, so that we can help you navigate the markets and make more informed investment decisions.
Launched on Monday May 3rd 2021, this site is the culmination of collaborative work between Northstar (Kevin Wadsworth) and Badcharts (Patrick Karim).
- We both have a strong presence on Twitter, but found that we were getting asked many times for charts that we’d already done in the recent past.
- It can be very difficult to find what you’re looking for on social media generally.
- This site provides you with much easier access to all of our charts via an intuitive layout
- Most high value actionable charts will be posted here and not available anywhere else.
- Our social media accounts will continue, but this site will be the ‘jewel in our crown’ where we showcase our best work.
- Our charting styles are distinct from each other, but, we feel, complimentary to each other.
- We make no attempt to ‘synchronize’ our charts so that they tell the same story.
- It’s better (we think) that our work remains uncompromised, giving you the benefit of both our perspectives.
As much as we would like to answer every question posted, it is, of course, not possible. We do read them though, and will answer as, and when, we can. If there is a common theme/question/problem/request, rest assured we will react accordingly.
As the site develops, we’d like to encourage a ‘community feel’, with members having discussions around the topics raised by the charts.
From time to time, either one of us will take a week or two away from the screen to enjoy some family time/holiday/vacation. The beauty is that with two of us here, the site will always be updated regardless.
We are both technical analysts (not financial advisors), so cannot give individual investment advice.
Please use our charts as they’re intended – to help you make properly informed decisions, helping you to weigh up the evidence and stack the odds in YOUR favour. That’s what it’s all about really – nobody knows the future with 100% certainty, but these charts, taken as a whole, should keep you on the right track – navigating the ups and downs of these turbulent markets.
Happy investing.
Kevin & Patrick
