CM Capital Services continues to search the western states for quality real estate loans that will yield double digit annual returns for our investors.  Just north of Salt Lake City, an experienced Utah team seeks funds to purchase and complete development of a highly desirable residential community.   

Phase One of The Old Farm at Kay’s Creek features 24 distinctive lots zoned for single family homes.  All 24 lots are currently reserved by end buyers.  Our borrower was able to negotiate an extremely favorable purchase price with a local bank looking to get these lots off its balance sheet.   

Proving, yet again, that in this real estate market only the savvy need apply, our borrower is purchasing this high quality development for a fraction of its previous value.  

We are lending 43% of the “as developed” value of this property.  Interest to investors will be paid monthly at an annual rate of 10% to 10.25%.  The loan term is 6 months with two optional 90 day extensions possible.  Take a look at the attached fact sheet for all of the details.


If you are looking for a quality income investment that is short term, then act quickly and call or email us at the numbers below.  Our investment minimum remains $10,000.

Trader Testimonials

"I can not even begin to express my gratitude to Robin for all that she has helped me to accomplish in such a short period of time. When I first called her, I was an emotional mess. I was in a place that so many new and experienced traders can one day find themselves. I was totally "blocked" as Robin would say, frozen, and paralyzed to a point where I was no longer able to take a trade. On my first phone call with her, she put me through her "Scramble" excersize, and the block became something that was a thing of the past. Not only was I able to trade again, but I immediately started to trade profitably again. It doesn't stop there though, because I can truly say that she has helped me to create a strict discipline around so many different aspects of the emotional side of trading. This has allowed me to increase contract size, and increase the size of my account.
As I have continued to work with her, the rules and the discipline have continued to grow. Eventually, I'm positive that she will help to me master myself, and as a result, master the art of trading. The bottom line is this: you have to work hard to get this, but if you are willing to work on yourself, Robin has the right tools, and expertise to help you get to where you want to be. Thank you Robin Dayne! You are the best!"

The Number ONE Reason Trader’s Don’t Make it

By Robin Dayne

 

Trading Situation:

Trader Background: Charlie has been a trader now for almost 10 years and at first he did really well and was fairly profitable early on in his trading. Then he right when he was doing so well he had the biggest loss of his trading career, in one day. He lost 10 thousand dollars in one position. From then on his trading suffered and getting back the money was always on his mind. He had the “beat yourself up” mindset, started over trading, was doubling up on size and the losses became bigger and bigger. It came to the point Charlie where he was in so much fear that by the time he contacted me the exact words on the phone were: “I’m frozen, paralyzed and can’t pull the trigger.” I need help.

Method is designed to:

· Definition of “Emotional Blocks”
· Identify if YOU have them
· Review some solutions
· Get you back on track
· Decide if you need help

Trader Comment:

“I don’t know what’s happening to me. I’m a good trader, I was doing really well and all of a sudden all has gone off. I have been losing now for awhile and in the last two weeks I find I can’t take a trade even if I see the perfect set-up. I feel frozen even paralyzed and I can’t pull the trigger. What’s wrong with me? Charlie - NYC

T- Trader C- Coach

C – The first thing that I asked Charlie was: “So how much did you lose in one trade and all together?

T- “I lost 10k in one trade a few months ago and ever since then I have been constantly losing. But in the last two weeks things have been getting progressively worse. Then last week when I went to trade I saw a great set-up everything was perfect, the market was moving, all the planets were aligned and I froze. I just couldn’t pull the trigger and I missed out on the trade of the month.

C- Please know that this is the most common thing I hear from traders on a regular basis and I am convinced it is the number one reason traders fail or leave the business. I have never heard of a trader that hasn’t faced the emotional block at one point in their trading.

T – “I don’t know what’s happening to me. I’m a good trader, I was doing really well and all of a sudden all has gone off.”

C- Most traders don’t realize what’s happening to them at this point. They don’t realize that the block is the problem. After all we do not get a normal education on how our minds work. We have little or no skills when it comes to our conscious minds fight with our sub-conscious mind. When the block takes over and becomes very strong, a trader’s only recourse is his or her own will power to overcome it. An emotional block has strong physical repercussions especially on trading reactions.

So, how do you know a block is effecting your trading? Well that’s the easy part, it’s when your conscious mind wants to do one thing and you body reacts differently. Their reactions are filtered through the emotions of fear, hesitation, apprehension and uncertainty whether you want it or not.

Some typical trading reactions that stem from a block are:

- Jumping into a trade when there are no good reasons to take it

- Exiting a good trade when all signals are good

- Having a great set-up where all indicators are lined up and not taking the trade

- Seeing a great trade and hesitating on the entry

- Having feelings of uncertainty

- Experiencing many losses over and over

- Stop trading and having the feelings of fear after a large loss or many small ones in a row

……these are just a few of many that exist.

T- “I have been losing now for awhile and in the last two weeks I find I can’t take a trade even if I see the perfect set-up. I feel frozen even paralyzed and I can’t pull the trigger. What’s wrong with me?

C – Blocks are insidious they tend to grow and accumulate or gather strength like a snowball. All along have greater impact on each trade and trading results. Many traders not getting some outside help end up thinking there is something wrong with them and end up giving up. The pressure and stress are too much for them to take. Also much blame has been put on a great trading strategy when the trader is really reacting from a block and not the method they were taught. Read More

Dollar, Gold, Oil and the SP500’s Mid-Week Trading Video
June 23rd, 2010


It’s been a crazy week for gold, oil and the SP500 again…. Since the market top in April we have seen large moves almost EVERY day in the market. I would say this is one of the toughest times for traders as you must be very quick to enter and exit if you want to lock in any profits. Good news is that things should start to smooth out in the next week or so if stock kick into rally mode.

Below is a quick video I did for you showing how I see the market, what I think is about to do and what to be aware of. I recommend you Gold Bugs skip over this report because on Sunday I wrote about how gold kept making new highs this year and how prices were about to drop again. And it was only a few minutes after I sent that report out before the emails started to flood my inbox from individuals around the world telling me how wrong I was saying gold is about to selloff. I knew gold was a crowded trade but not to the point that people are willing to fight you just because you mention its looking ready for a correction…. Which is actually a good thing for gold to do right now….

To be honest I’m still in aw about how mean and rude some people can be when all I am trying to do is help educate and help everyone see the market from a technical point of view without any bias… Thank goodness I’m a positive thinker and find most things funny or can put a positive spin on things like seeing gold drop $35 so far this week ?Read More

An update on the Status of the SP 500 Index and the Markets
June 20th, 2010

Back in Mid-April I penned a forecast calling for a top in the markets and suggesting a drop from 1220 or so on the SP 500 index down to 1130 as the first leg down. That was a minimum downside and based on the rally off the February 5th lows to the April highs. In the last many weeks, the market actually ended up correcting 31% of the 13 month rally from March 2009 to April 2010. This type of corrective action had the exact same patterns as the prior two corrections since the Bull began in 2009.

On May 25th in pre-market, I wrote a forecast with a video predicting a bottom at 1030-1040 ranges, and we did in fact bottom that day. The market has since traced out a rally followed by a re-test in early June, and since then another rally to new highs since May 25th. I expect this type of chopping action to continue until Mid-September as I predicted back in April. The preceeding 13 month bull leg rally must be corrected both in sentiment and price over several months of time. The price objective may have already been met on May 25th and again with the June re-test, but the amount of time for a correction is not nearly enough. Expect continuing choppy action for the next 3 months, after which I believe the market will firm up and we could run to new highs by the end of the year.

The market should pull back a bit early this week, and if it holds the 109.50 SPY ETF area, it should then continue the rally. You may view a 3 minute video of the forecast with advisories by clicking the link below to our ATP website free preview section. Read More

Market rallies 50% from the lows. What's next?
June 20th, 2010

The Euro rallies and all's well will the world. Markets recover smartly. GS cut their Euro estimate from a $1.35 to $1.15 and I and many others raced to cover our shorts as fast as we could. The CFTC COT (Commitment of Traders) showed that over 44% of Euro shorts were covered. I'm guessing the number is more like 75% today given the Euro rallied from 118 to 124 in the last 2 weeks. In essence the shorts may have rallied the market?

Recommendation: It's now time to short the Euro again into 125 with a 131 stop. This should be a multi-year trade. To survive and prosper most of Europe needs a sub-1 Euro value, then we may wish to visit our friends across the sea once more.

I see France is doing its part to cut expenses and help the Euro. On Thursday, France announced they were raising the retirement age from 60 to 62 by 2018. What were they thinking? Greece went from 54 to 68 immediately. I can see more street riots coming from Greece and the PIGS sooner than later.

There is a silver lining in these European debt crises. Our own debt crisis have been pushed further into the future as investors rallied to the dollar in droves. This means our own rates should not rise until late 2011. I can even see a sub-3% yield on the 10 year T Bonds. One Fed governor said the Fed will buy long- Read More
