I wasn’t expecting THIS chart…
US bond yields are creeping back into dangerous territory, AI pessimism may have reached a short-term extreme, and the metals story continues to impress.
Murray Dawes is a trader specialising in ASX trading and technical analysis (combined with an equal focus on fundamental analysis). He is the investment director of the premium trading service Retirement Trader.
With more than two decades in the field, Murray has employed his expertise in technical analysis to create custom trading systems that have substantially benefited a select clientele, including some of Australia’s wealthiest families.
Shortly after graduating from university, Murray was one of only five individuals selected from 5,000 applicants for a graduate position at Swiss Banking Corporation — now part of UBS. He worked on the Sydney Futures Exchange trading floor, gaining experience in the three- and 10-year bond futures and the ASX Share Price Index futures trading pits.
He then worked as a futures and options broker with Swiss Banking Corporation and Bankers Trust Australia.
Venturing independently, Murray designed proprietary trading systems focused on leveraged financial instruments like futures. Until recently, Murray’s specialised trading strategies and methods were exclusive to a private, elite clientele and boutique hedge funds.
Now, Murray has extended his offerings to everyday Australian investors at Fat Tail Investment Research. As part of Fat Tail Daily, he delivers his free weekly video series ‘Closing Bell’, released each Saturday morning, and delivered directly to subscribers’ inboxes.
For in-depth ASX trading and technical analysis insights, we invite you to watch the latest episode of Closing Bell below. If you wish to elevate your trading strategy further, consider subscribing to Retirement Trader.

It is consistently among our top-performing advisory services in terms of strike rate and the average gains versus average losses.
Murray takes great pride in his track record and has helped his subscribers successfully trade through some extremely tricky market conditions, including the COVID panic, which saw markets crash 36% between February and March 2020.
Murray says the secret to his success is understanding the phenomenon of ‘widening distributions’ and how price action tends to move like a magnet within them.
That’s what makes stock price movements more predictable, says Murray, and more tradeable.
