    I don't think I've ever made that kind of money. I make a decent living with a 20% or better return on my capital each year.

  2. deaddog,

    I agree, but you can buy proper and adequate coaching and teaching as an addtional edge on the road to sucess.

    My experience and my experience only is that I ended up with a complementary trading course that retailed for $2900 when I signed up with a broker. There was nothing in the course I couldn't find for free on the internet.

  5. deaddog,

    Did the trading course give you confidence or understanding or plan of attack? Did you learn something?

    If the answer is yes. Then $2900 was well spent. Good job. You did not know at the time you purchased the course, that same content was online for Free. So you did a good job paying for a course. Money well spent.

    As I said before, pay for knowledge and skills is FAR better than learning on your own.

    Keep it simple and save time. Work smarter, not harder. I have no problem at all spending thousands on trading course or a mentor. It helps and have helped me. I encourage newbies to the same or bullshit and waste alot of good time. The end goal is not make money.

    I learned that if this course was typical of what was available, and I have no reason to believe it wasn't, that trading courses are overpriced. You can learn most of what you need to know online.

    Keep in mind that I moved from being an investor to being a trader. I was aware of how financial markets worked. When I started there was no online. Books, and day old newspapers is where I got my info. School of hard knocks, trial and error were my education. And I'm still learning!!

  7. Yes sir, I understand what mean. It is a continous 90 degree learning curve.

    A lot of people make trading much more complicated than it needs to be. Days and years are not required, it can be taught in 15 minutes.
    profitable trader = setup + discipline to keep the stop

    95% of it is in the setup, if the method is worthless you don't stand a chance.
    I learnt my main setup in a multi speaker seminar where each speaker gets 45 mins to talk. 6 months later he put most of the system on the net for free, hoping to get enough publicity to land a hedge fund job. :D
    He used to be a shoe salesman.

    The other 11 speakers were not worth the fare to attend the seminar.

  9. Thor,

    Where does a trader obtain a setup that takes about 15 minutes to learn and become consistently profitable?

    Thank you kindly.
