Fundamental Trading Seminar

There are literally millions of individuals with trading accounts who can quote every single trading cliché ever written but can’t earn enough money from their trading to buy a cup of coffee... and that doesn't have to be you.

The Story

Six months ago, two people decided to quit their jobs and become active traders. They were very much alike. Both read books, both had plenty of common sense, and both had big dreams for their trading future.

They both started trading by reading charts, using the same indicators, and were still actively trading, despite the headline news and unexpected turns of the economy. Both also had excellent knowledge of technical analysis and routing orders for direct access... But when they recently ran in to each other, there was a large difference in their earnings and quality of life.

One of them worked from 6am-6pm each day and had become burnt out, angry, and was getting nowhere with all of his efforts, while the other was relaxed and confident going in to the market each day expecting to earn money consistantly.

What was the difference?

Knowledge is very important, but knowing how to use that knowlege will make all the difference in the world. This can be learned eventually through trial and error, but it's very costly and very time consuming. For this exact reason we have created the 90 Day Mentoring Program; to help you avoid the long and painful "trial and error" process, and to help you find a fast-track to success!

The sucessful trader was taught by his mentor from the start to understand the process of making quality trading decisions. He was taught that his immediate goal should be to flawlessly execute his trading plan, and that his monetary goals would be more likely to become a reality if he learned the skill of managing a trade properly.

The struggling trader had become an expert on entry patterns and technical indicators, but his focus was on being right and immediate payoff. He was only concentrating on the outcome, and he would constantly get angry that he could “always” see what he should have done after the fact.

The struggling trader had become a master of charts and tactics while the successful trader had become a master at planning, probability and risk. The struggling trader's trading business was his life... while the sucessful trader's business enabled him to have the lifestyle he wanted.

The story of these two traders will be repeated in thousands of lives in the next few months.

Many new traders will start trading actively... only to quickly feel like they are earning as if they have a JOB. Just-Over-Broke! Perhaps they'll make a bit more money than they did at their former job, but with more stress and work along with it.

But a small handful of traders will decide to learn from a mentor, someone who is a further down the trader path than they are. Someone who has traveled the same road you are on and can answer the critical questions that can make the difference between frustration and success.

This handful of traders will...

• Begin with the correct mindset; learning to trade takes screen time, not book time.
• Use this screen time to experience different market conditions in order to develop an edge
• Develop this edge into a strategy that will be the foundation of a Trading Plan
• Convert on a daily basis the Trading Plan into an actionable Game Plan. A list of stocks that match your strategy and have the highest probability for earning money based on your edge.
