Pulling the trigger to get started
Jeff, Thank you for this timely post. I have gotten killed this year with wrong directional trades 9betting on the correction that doesn’t come). My biggest problem is two fold: 1) When to cut and run. i.e. take the loss and get out. 2) Fear – afraid to not be in the directional when the big reversal happens. I’m so sure (wrongly) that the market will tank that I keep making trades based on that. Do I get out of all of those losing trades immediately? What do I do to get back on track? I know you cannot give personal advice but can you broadly comment on this and how to get moving forward again? Please help! Thank you
I’m thankful that I decided to finally take the necessary steps to direct my life where I want it to go and to have linked up with your phenomenal website and group of traders. Thanks!
Awesome Jeff! I was thinking the same thing. How Farve alway keeps going for it no matter what,kind of reminds me of Elway also. Now go Chiefs
Im facing the issue with closing position Jeff.
Hello Jeff… am very busy watching all the videos, paper trading and studying. Your style of ‘teaching’ is excellent – easy to understand and implement. My BIGGEST trading problem has been not obeying my stops. I am improving in this area because it’s mandatory !!! I was very excited to find your site, because I was looking for specific instructions on how to trade Vertical Credit Spreads. I really believe I’ve found a home! Keep the Coaching and Profit Alerts coming as often as you see fit. Thank you. Julie Reagan P. S. Am looking forward to receiving the ‘All Star Trading Plan’…Will fax my form at the end of Oct.
I will just ride the exculator weather its going up or going down.
Jeffrey,
I spent the last 6 months of 2009 studying what is really going on and have sources that you should evaluate in order to best protect your family.
Please send me your e mail address, and I will send you some extremely important information for your evaluation.

I bought 20 Gold Eagles the first part of this year. The last two months most of my option spreads have been Bear Calls. I own long stock position in TZA. Am I bearish? Yeah, until I get some other indication to reverse my outlook.
I have taken your course and apply what I have learned, although I usually take a slightly lower probability (more risk).
I also trade Calendars, Iron Condors and a few Butterflies.

Hi Jeff- it is music to my ears to hear that you subscribe to the same ideology I have about our economy and where it is headed. I have been preparing for global economic chaos/collapse for a long time. I still have a lot to do, but one of my main goals is to become wealthy in the process, and be able to preserve it for my family – which is why I decided to subscribe to your service.
I believe that times like this make & break fortunes- I intend to be on the “making” side of the equation with your help. I have already pre-positioned about $35,000 of my investment account with OTM long calls in FAZ, SDS, TZA, & SRS. I know this is the kind of speculation which you capitalize on, but it was already in place before I signed up with you, so I’m betting on the long shot for a huge score by Jan ’11 option expiration. My plan is to take my seed $$$ out asap & if the market tanks I will reap millions on their dime.
Although my learning curve is steep because I do not have chart reading or TA skills I would like to be up to speed with your program asap so I can manage my investment account to great wealth. What do you recommend? I have also been taking physical possession of gold & silver trying get prepared for hard times. Where are we supposed to protect our wealth when the dollar collapses?
I live in Prescott, AZ & would love to attend any workshops or meetings which you sponsor to meet you.
Keep up the good work!!

Heavy in cash, little bent more to the downside with inverse funds, equities on the long side that I have left are dividend payers with OTM options sold against them-considering switching to closer strikes or ITM sold call options. Problem is I feel most everyone knows the conditions in the world;however it comes to this HFT and the BS the government pulls it makes it a little hard to get overly exposed on the downside because someone somewhere is going to pump up this market regardless of conditions-apparently today is short covering before the weekend;however we are not at closing yet.
My best alternative is to short the ES, YM and commodity currencies.
I agree. It appears we have some tough times ahead and need to prepare immediately to generate a steady, reliable income streams. My immediate plans and activities involve rewatching the trading video’s learning TOS trading platform’s analyze tab and prob of expiring graphs and start paper trading the watch list next month.
Sell bear calls when a major break of support occurs or when confirming from a bounce down off resistance that was previous support – also buy puts on the index eg SPY to protect all your positions.
I have not started preparing yet. First I would like to get started by trading. Listening to your intro.to credit spreads makes so much sense, I cant wait to get started. Ive just got to get my finances in order now because of my past failures with options. I am ready to try something that is consistent an steady.Please comment on any suggestion you may have with getting started. Thanks! Maurice
I get the biggest laugh from these self proclaimed market experts who think they know which way the market is heading. Using Jeff’s coaching I’ve been making 10% to 14% a month in the markets simply by looking at what a chart is telling me, and laughing at all the talking heads out there.
