Why most traders never achieve
consistent results
No fixed rulebook
90% of traders operate without a clear, documented system. Every decision is a new debate. Every loss creates doubt. Nothing compounds.
Chasing setups
New indicator. New strategy. New YouTube video. The search never ends because there is no foundation to stand on — only noise to react to.
Emotional execution
A position moves against you and the rules disappear. Fear, hope, and greed are not problems you can think your way out of — they require a system.
The profit plateau
Some wins, some losses — capital stays flat. Without proper risk management and a repeatable edge, gains are erased as fast as they are made.
Trade what you see.
Not what you expect.
Trend following is not prediction. It is a disciplined, rule-based response to what the market is actually doing — removing guesswork from every decision.
Follow the trend, do not predict it
Markets move in trends. Recognising and trading in the direction of an established trend is the foundation of the DowHow system — applied to any market, any timeframe.
Keep losses small. Let profits run.
Every position has a defined exit — both when wrong and when right. Losses are capped early. Profits are held as long as the trend is intact. Asymmetry is the edge.
Rules over emotions, always
Emotions in trading are unavoidable. The solution is not elimination — it is a system rigorous enough that emotions have no role in the actual decision.
Document, review, improve
Every trade is logged. Every month reviewed. Progress in trading is not intuitive — it is the result of structured self-analysis and deliberate correction.
"Profits don't matter as much as whether you followed the rules."— Markus Gabel, DowHow Trading
Real trades. Real results.
No backtested hypotheticals. These figures come from live trading using the DowHow system at 1% risk per trade — conservative position sizing.
Consistent trend-following execution on the world's most traded pair.
10.01% average per month. A mathematical edge, not a lucky streak.
Fewer signals, lower time commitment — still profitable with the same rules.
Across bull markets, bear markets, and crisis periods. The system holds.
Past performance does not guarantee future results. Figures shown reflect live trading at 1% risk per trade. Individual results will vary based on account size, risk settings, and execution.

Unedited feedback from traders who completed the Trading with Logic programme.
"The aha moment for me was when I understood that the logic in trading can be duplicated again and again in every chart. I can do the same thing over and over and know that it's right every time."
"This is not just a course and a stock market strategy. It can become a new path in life. I am deeply impressed — by the knowledge and by how brilliantly Markus is able to impart his skills."
"12 months of DowHow and always new steps and developments — especially in me. He combines trading with personal development, which is absolutely essential. You not only grow professionally, but also personally."
"I had so many questions unanswered after watching hours and hours of YouTube videos. This course opened my eyes to my mistakes and given me new eyes to trading. I joined the community as well and I'm so excited."
"The course has everything you need to learn trading with logic. Markus Gabel stands by everyone's side and teaches everything. I can only recommend the course to anyone who is serious about learning to trade."
"It definitely pays off to complete the course and join the community — the all-round support is the be-all and end-all. I tried to learn by myself first. It doesn't work unless your pockets are very deep."
"The best course I have ever bought. It completed everything. I learned to control my emotions a lot more — and I radiate that in my daily life too. Don't hesitate — your money is worth much more with this system."
"DowHow Trading gave me a clear and understandable method with my mentor Markus. The concepts are easy to understand and showed me how to see a trend in the chart and make better decisions."
"Based on logic, the DowHow strategy is explained in an understandable way. An absolute plus point is the focus on trend drawing and trade management. Markus uses his personal experience to convey the content excellently."
Markus Gabel
Markus Gabel has spent over a decade developing and refining the DowHow methodology — a rule-based trend-following approach that traces its lineage to the Turtle Traders experiment and the core principle that systematic trading can be learned, documented, and replicated.
He trades his own capital using the same system he teaches, and manages funds in the double-digit million euro range for clients. The methodology has been applied across equities, forex, indices, and commodities — in every major market condition.
His focus is not on producing traders who follow signals. It is on producing traders who understand the logic behind every decision they make — and can apply that logic independently for the rest of their career.
