While she claims to be Anne-Marie Baiynd, her last name also used to go by Buttrick. Now her last name appears to be Band or Presnell.[1] Right now, she also goes by Band or Presnell. Baiynd/Presnell/Buttrick/Band published her Market Positioning System (MPS) in 2011 to educate beginning day traders on the tools and techniques that have her listed in Traders At Work: World's Most Successful Traders Make Their Living in the Markets. Baiynd/Presnell/Buttrick/Band runs a day trading room where subscribers can follow her trades online and provides swing trading set-ups as well as trading education through her web site.
Background
Anne-Marie Baiynd/Presnell/Buttrick/Band was born in Port of Spain, Trinidad and moved to the United States in 1978 with her parents, brother, and sister. She became a naturalized citizen of the United States in 2002. Baiynd/Presnell/Buttrick/Band is married with a blended family of nine children.
Baiynd/Presnell/Buttrick/Band majored in applied mathematics at the University of North Carolina at Asheville.[2][3] Her master’s work included "statistics, biostatistics, and behavioral studies".[3]
In 1994, Baiynd/Presnell/Buttrick/Band began conducting research on the efficacy of vagus nerve stimulation in the treatment of intractable epilepsy at Carolina Neurological. From there she began engaging the public as a corporate speaker and trainer. She also held a position as a vice president of sales and eventually served as CEO of the recruitment firm, SPIRIT ipds, Inc., until 2006.[2][3]
While attending a SUCCESS magazine convention in 2005, she was introduced to technical analysis at a session led by Phil Town.[3] After 14 years in recruiting she took this opportunity to make a change in her career.[3]
Baiynd/Presnell/Buttrick/Band took one class from Investools and began trading real money.[4] After struggling in the markets for 18 months, Baiynd/Presnell/Buttrick/Band stopped trading with real money and began paper trading to learn market rhythms.[3][4] Baiynd/Presnell/Buttrick/Band is primarily a self-taught technical analyst though she does credit Brian Shannon and Peter Reznicek for her learning about multiple time frames and market internals such as ticks.[3][5] Early in her career she considered herself primarily a swing trader.[4] Baiynd/Presnell/Buttrick/Band applies technical analysis for trades on multiple time frames for shorter term trading and not for longer term "Buy and hold" investments.[6][7]
Soon after StockTwits launched their services in 2009, Baiynd/Presnell/Buttrick/Band joined the service and began offering trade suggestions and advice. StockTwits founder Howard Lindzon, in his book The StockTwits Edge, states that "While I've not met Anne-Marie, her reputation for good ideas is second to none. She offers complete and detailed ideas around her strategy and then follows up with commentary on how trades performed."[8] In the 2013 E-book on THE BEST OF THE BEST by Brian Lund, Baiynd/Presnell/Buttrick/Band's mental and chart analysis philosophies from StockTwits are quoted.[9][10]
Baiynd/Presnell/Buttrick/Band was interviewed as one of the "World's Most Successful Traders" by Tim Bourquin and Nicholas Mango in their book Traders at Work: How the World's Most Successful Traders Make Their Living in the Markets.[2]
Market Positioning System
Baiynd/Presnell/Buttrick/Band first published her Market Positioning System (MPS) in 2011.[11] She covers the details of the MPS in detail in her first book The Trading Book: A Complete Solution to Mastering Technical Systems and Trading Psychology.[11] The book is geared towards beginning day traders.[12]
One unique feature in the book is that Baiynd/Presnell/Buttrick/Band speaks explicitly about her failures early in her trading career and what she did to overcome these challenges.[12] She describes in great detail with large charts her MPS and how she trades the momentum as the prices move.[12] Her MPS applies the concepts of support and resistance levels, price channels, moving averages, Fibonacci retracements and Bollinger Bands to select the proper time to enter a trade long or sell short.[12][13] Even though the book is written with the novice in mind, traders that already use these tools can take away information about their subtleties.[13]
Baiynd/Presnell/Buttrick/Band also describes the need to create a trading journal to log your daily activities so that you can perform a through after action review of trades that went well as well as those that did not.[12][13] She also follows up with examples from her own journal.[12] This builds a framework around her discussions on the psychological side of trading.[13]
In the book review by the magazine Futures, reviewer Leslie Masonson states that Baiynd/Presnell/Buttrick/Band provides a very "actionable and pragmatic approach to day trading."[12] Brenda Jubin at Seeking Alpha stated that the book "may not be the greatest thing since white bread, but it’s a darned good read."[13]
