What is                    ?

• Inspired by feedback from our 

seminar students, subscribers, and the 

active trading community, 

Pristine 

ESP™

was developed to alert traders 

to the exact moment when a Pristine 
trading opportunity occurs.

• ESP

does the work for you, using 

Pristine's proprietary technical 
analysis while scanning thousands of 
stocks simultaneously. 

• Once a powerful setup is identified, 

ESP

swings into action, providing real 

time alerts delivered without a 
moment's delay.

wish to know the road, inquire of 
those who have traveled it.” The 
authors of Tools and Tactics for

the road. Their unique insights, 
trading tactics and powerful tools, 
so enjoyably presented, make 
this a book that belongs on every 
trader’s shelf.
