All Star of the Month
I know I am a little late in posting last months All Star of the Month here on FitToTrade.com…. but Daniel Hunt’s story is so good, and it is definitely inspiring to read.
Here is what he had to say with his own words:
I realized about the middle of 2007 that things were not going the way I thought they were going to. That the business I am in was changing and I had better get ready.
See, I am a loan officer and as you are well aware, things have changed in the last two years. I had been involved with the market for quite a while but mainly as a buy and hope trader. My favorite transaction was the buy high and sell low trade. It must have been because I did it all the time. When things started to change in my business I realized that I needed to adapt and change the way I was thinking about money. I came across a few outfits that promised the world when it came to options and that double digit returns were the norm every day or so. Of course I jumped in!! I soon realized that directional trading is up surd and that no guru or teacher has any idea what the market will do on a consistent basis.
I came across Jeff’s site one day about a year ago. I really can’t recall the exact month. What he said from the outset was really what I had been looking for. I wanted something that I could invest in that did not take a definitive stance on the direction a stock needed to take. The market can go up, down or sideways and you could still make money. The lesson about probabilities and trends really made it a compelling argument. We are not always going to be right but more often than not we are. Jeff’s weekly videos really help cement my own thoughts about the market. He taught me that what I think should happen is irrelevant when compared to what we see in the charts and probabilities. That means my worst enemy gets taken out of the game….me!! I trade what I see and nothing more and the videos help in determining patterns and set ups.
Ultimately what I am searching for is a way to get out of the rat race and be completely independent. I have a plan to be completely out of the mortgage world in a relatively short period of time. With Jeff’s system I have already cut down my hours and the time spent in the office. I now have much more time to spend with my family. I have two young sons and I want to spend as much time with them as possible. That is what I am most appreciative for. This has literally changed my view of the future. Thank you for everything!!

Hey Daniel,
I cracked up when you said “My favorite transaction was the buy high and sell low trade. “
I’ve heard so many different variations of that same trading style. Actually, many years ago it was my personal “favorite” too. Maybe it’s just one of those things we all have to experience before the transformation can take place.
However that is not the case for you any longer…Congratulations on becoming the April All-Star of the Month. That is certainly not an easy task. There are hundreds of traders inside the All-Star membership site competing with each other to get the top spot, and you came out on top. Great Job!
When I look at the picture of your family, it’s really easy for me to see what motivates you. I can’t begin to express how excited I get when moms and dads learn this powerful strategy to create financial security for their families… and I’m thrilled that your hard work has paid off and you’ve taken the top spot, as the All Star of the Month for April.
You deserve to be commended and I hope you enjoy the gift that we will be sending you.
Have a great day!
Jeff
Every All Star has a very clear “reason why” they are committed to becoming the best. Maybe it’s family. Maybe it’s the financial reward. Or maybe it is something else entirely. But every one of them has all taken the time to spell out exactly why they are committed to achieving extraordinary results.
I have said it before and I will say it again: All Stars are Made not Born.
What is your “Reason Why”?
Until Next Time,
Jeff Z

I am concerned about everything else collapsing in this world and have been looking for a way to protect what I have and make it produce enough for my future. I have been buying real estate for 30 years adn with that uncertainty nowadays I had to seek out an opportunity to fall back on and options it seems like could be it.
Temporarily bearish (next few months) bullish early 2011 then bearish for a whil later 2011. If we have another – Greece, N. Korea incident, more oil problems, bearish sooner and longer.
Hard commodities will win the day eventually. Paper money will become useless. Not apoplectic just becoming more and more concerned over the world’s woes.
