We are independent investors and educators who have spent decades navigating stock markets — and training others to do the same with clarity, structure, and conviction.
We share our actual portfolio — positions we hold and stocks we want to buy — so you can learn by watching real trades unfold in real time.
Comprehensive training covering trend identification, position sizing, fundamental and technical analysis, and the discipline required to stay profitable.
Market reviews every week — what happened, what may happen next, and how we are thinking about positioning for the week ahead.
Join us live to discuss trades we share, ask questions, and participate in an active community of like-minded investors.
Purpose-built tools to help you apply the right risk management, identify quality stocks, and maintain process under pressure.
Have a question? We answer. Our students receive personal support as they develop their own investing skills and confidence.
Dynamic Trader was founded in 2007 by Javid Shaik and Anne Chapman. Everything we teach, we practise ourselves — our students learn from our real portfolio, our real decisions, and our honest reflections on both.
Javid has been trading independently since 2001. With a professional background spanning IT, telecommunications, digital print, and business research, his analytical mindset drives the systematic frameworks at the heart of Dynamic Trader's approach. He blends fundamental analysis with technical observation — building and managing positions methodically over multi-year horizons in stocks, commodities, and currencies.

An investor from an early age, she transitioned into active trading to combine capital growth with income. Anne's expertise lies in identifying trend-following opportunities and translating complex market concepts into accessible education — as demonstrated in her book, The (Almost) Complete Guide to Trend Trading.
LinkedIn →We combine rigorous fundamental analysis with disciplined technical observation to find and manage positions with a genuine edge — without the noise.
We identify companies with strong, improving fundamentals — businesses worth owning at the right price. Quality first, always.
Price action and trend analysis tell us when the market agrees with our thesis. We wait for confirmation before committing capital.
We compound into winning positions and size down or exit when conditions change. Patience is our greatest edge.
Every position is sized relative to portfolio risk, not conviction alone. Protecting capital is the prerequisite to growing it.
