Zak Mir - CFD research team profile

Zak Mir, one of the UK's leading Technical Analysts heads up The Blue Index Reseach Team.

The Blue Index research site is aimed at providing clients with trade ideas, with support and discipline to maximise profit potential. CFDs (Contracts for Difference) are ideal for short term trading but it is important that with each trade downside is limited and upside is allowed to run, this is what we are trying to achieve here. 
Zak has been involved in the financial markets for over 20 years as either a private investor in the wake of the 1987 Stock Market crash or celebrated market commentator ever since.  Zak was Shares Magazine's first Technical Analyst and writes regularly for the influential Masterclass series featured in the Investor's Chronicle. He is regularly quoted in the National Press with a recent feature in the Sunday Times. TV appearances make him a regular on Bloomberg and CNBC.

As Chief Market Strategist at Blue Index, Zak uses his technical experience of the stock market for the benefit of the company's clients making daily calls on leading stocks and markets. A rigid money management system is in place with stop losses and target prices all predetermined for each trade.

Zak runs the Blue Index trade portfolios, he does not trade his own positions so has no axe to grind, the job of the research team is to chose profitable trades, run profits and cut losses. Click here for more information on the Blue Index CFD Trading Strategies.

Blue Index Managing Director, James Sanders, explained how he feels Zak can make a difference:

"Successful traders can sometimes get only 40% of their trades correct, the real skill is having the discipline to cut losses early and run the winning trades. A quick profit is often too tempting to resist and equally it is easy to hope and pray that a losing trade will come back for you. Having Zak available to our clients will hopefully mean that they are in the right stocks, facing the right way more often. There is no secret formula to making money in short term trading, but with Zak's technical analysis together a rigid stop loss and target system in place, I believe we can swing things in your favour."

Zak Mir prides himself on being approachable and accessible; if you need a frank view on a stock, market or currency, do contact him or a member of the research team direct on 0207 398 2565 or zak.mir@blueindex.co.uk.
