From: Elite Trader
Training Written: Tuesday, 9:42AM... during what, to many, seems like the
brink of a global meltdown.
Dear future "Elite"
Trader,
Let me tell you something I hate, and then I'll tell you something I
love.
I HATE seeing good people lose money in the stock
market.
Nobody likes losing money. I've been there and done that.
Perhaps that's why I have compassion for the millions of people who are currently losing so
much of their financial worth.
People are losing their stock portfolios, losing their 401k's,
losing their jobs due to the sour economy, and just generally getting spanked by Wall
Street.
Unfortunately, I can't help the "masses" avoid financial
loss.
It's just a part of how the game is played. Someone is always
going to lose money.
However, I CAN help those who are willing to help themselves.
And since you're here reading this page, that includes you!
In other words,someone is always going to lose
money, but that "someone" DOESN'T have to be you!
And what do I love?
I LOVE empowering people to achieve success in their
lives.
So I guess that this love and hate are what motivated me to
create theTrading Pro
System for you.
You will NOT find this system being taught by ANYONE else, and
it absolutely has the potential to drastically change your life for the better!
However, I'm NOT going to feed you a bunch of "get rich quick"
hype, because that's not what the course is about, nor is it my style.
Instead, I'm going to get straight to the point and
just tell you...
what this course is all
about
what it will do for
you
what is
included
and how you'll be able to access
it.
This has been20 YEARS in the
making!
First, I want you to know that this program
was NOT just conceived in the last few weeks and packaged as a product to
sell.
This course is the result and culmination of
20 years of thinking, planning, learning and practicing the material that you will
receive.
The reason why I decided to teach you my
methods is revealed in this letter. I'm not going to hide anything.
I want to be very clear from the outset...
Unlike many people who teach
options and stocks, I am NOT a former market maker or specialist or a
licensed professional in the financial industry. I am a retail
investorjust like
you. The difference is that I
found a way to be successful and profitable trading stocks and options as a
REAL business from my home office.
The business methods I use
arealso used by professional hedge fund managers and
market professionals who rarely, if ever, talk about their
strategies.
So you're probably asking yourself,
"Why would he give away these secrets?"
To answer that question, I will tell you
thatthere are three reasons why I want to
teach you this business...
1) There's no reason not to teach
you my secrets.
Seriously. I have nothing to lose. The
markets are huge and worldwide and anyone can trade them without decreasing the
opportunity. In fact it would only make things better. The more traders, the more money we
can make and the more liquid the market becomes.
It's really a win-win-win.
Unlike other businesses - such as the one I
have been involved in for the last 9 years (Internet marketing)- this business only gets
BETTER as more people do it.
2) I am a business person but I am
also a teacher.
I have been teaching people how to use the
Internet to start a business since 1999. I have taught thousands of people how to make
their living online so teaching is something I love to do.
There are not many people who really
understand this businessand are willing to teach
it to others.
3) Frankly, a little extra money from
selling this course means more I can put to good use in my trading
business.
Obviously I put my money where I get the
largest return for the amount invested. Most of the money I make from selling this course
goes directly into my trading business.
I don't know what your abilities are or how
fast you can learn this business as I teach it, so I will never tell you how much you could
make but 5% (or much more)per
month is a very reachable goal. Returns
can be as high as 62.5% (ROM) - that's $1,000 for every $1,600 invested.
But let me explain why this course
isdifferent from anything you may have seen before...
Most people think the markets
aretoo risky and their approach is "hit or miss", pure speculation, or worse... GAMBLING!
I will tell you right now... my trading
system is NOT gambling!
Bottom line:
I treat trading as a real business.
In fact, I don't even consider myself to be an 'investor' or
'speculator' or 'trader' in the traditional sense.
The truth is, and this is exactly how I see
myself:I am an
entrepreneur. As an entrepreneur I seek
opportunities in the market as well as engage in buying and selling activities to
generatethe highest return on my
investment and then
simplymanage my risk.
My product is options and
stocks.I buy and sell them to make money.
All businesses buy and sell to make
money -I just do it with stocks and options.
All good businesses manage, based on numbers and
ratios -I do the same thing - I manage by the numbers!
All businesses plan for profits and create opportunities
for the largest return on investment (ROI) possible -I do too, except I
create opportunities for the largest return on margin (ROM).
I know exactly what my maximum profits are going to
bebefore I place a trade.I
don't guess or speculate - I have a plan. Then I simply manage the position and, if necessary, adjust my
positions to remain profitable or cut my losses through smart risk management technics and
collect my profits at the end of the trading cycle (monthly).
This is an "evergreen" business. Even
as the markets shift, and the economy changes... my system will always work!
This business will never change... the principles, once you
learn them, are yours forever. You could learn these and hand them down to your children and
grandchildren.
The basics of this business will never change because the
underlying the principles will never change.
That's why I call it an 'evergreen' business.
Unlike franchises or other types of consumer or
business-to-business markets, the stock and option markets have been around for hundreds of
years. And even though the markets move and change in some ways, the principles have been the
same for the past 200+ years.
How did I discover how to start a stock and option
business?
One day I woke up one day to find a little extra cash sitting
in a money market earning 1.5% a year. The next year it was earning 3%... wow - 3% a
year.
I felt my money should be put to better and more productive
use and I started looking into all kinds of franchise opportunities and other businesses to
invest in... but they all had one drawback - the financial investment was large but so was the
investment oftime... something I really didn't have as a father of four.
So after years of 'hit or miss' trading I started thinking
about trading as areal business about 2
1/2 years ago - buying and selling stocks and options as a 'business'. I didn't know if
it could be done, but the idea intrigued me.
I knew somebody, somewhere was making a killing in the
markets and I was determined to find them, learn everything they know and make a killing of my
own.
I was determined to run
mytrading as
abusiness, not as a
gambler, and that meant looking at opportunities, supply and demand, marketplace dynamics
and managing my business based on solid business fundamentals: profit, loss, expenses,
overhead and return on investment.
Like any business my only concern was to buy something that I
could sell at a profit - and with enough of a profit margin so that my expenses (although
small) were covered leaving me with a consistent and reliable income.
The business of trading has all of these
advantages.
Once you know the system, this business
can be managed in 15 minutes a
day.
It
has all the makings of the 'perfect' business!
The problem with creating a business based on the markets is
that it seems like they are consistently changing and there is a lot of risk!
As you know, the markets go up one day and down the
next!
I was really confused which way the market would turn, and
since I hated the idea of losing money I tried to "predict" the market's direction because
that's how I THOUGHT money was made.
I got really, really good at 'technical analysis'... I THOUGHT
that it held the key to profits...if I could tell
where the market was headed it would be easy to make money, right?
I learned all about waves and candle sticks, MACD, ADX, CCI,
Bollinger Bands and Fibonacci and hundreds of chart 'patterns'... and I thought I 'knew'
something' about the future of the market!
Frankly, technical indicators are like
crutches - they only help to support and validate
your trading ideas already formed in your mind. They do not help you become a better trader or
see the reality of the market. There are only 3 technical indicators you need to run this
business: support, resistance and trend lines. That's' it. We keep it
simple.Simple makes me money.
I also discovered theTOP 1% of all traders do the
EXACT opposite of what I tried to do when I first got started (predict the market)... The fact
is...
Top traders NEVER try to predict the market
- they only manage risk.
Most of the elite traders don't care
if the market goes up or down - they make money either way.They use
charts sparingly.
All top traders do is manage their risk and take advantage of
the only truths of the market - the ONLY absolute truths of the market.
For stocks that ONE Absolute Truth is this:
1) All stocks fluctuate in price.
For options there are
twoAbsoluteTruths:
1) All options fluctuate in price
and
2) All options expire.
The top traders learn torespect these rules because
they are the ONLY truths of the market.
You might think there are other truths but there
aren't--
Everything you hear about the market outside these 2 rules is
hearsay, opinion, commentary and even complete fantasy.
Of course you will never hear anyone on CNBC even mention
these 2 rules because they would have nothing to report!
Can you imagine Maria Bartiromo saying,
"Prices fluctuated today. Have a nice evening everyone!
I'm outta here!"
I don't think so!
So the top traders respect these rules because they are so
powerful and it helps them cut through the 'market noise'.
Then they design their trading business around these rules
toTAKE ADVANTAGE of them.
Once they see an opportunity they jump on it and simply manage
their business 'by the numbers' and, for me it takes15 minutes - sometimes less - a
day.
How much can you make? Frankly, it depends on your capital,
ability to learn, and your ability to maintain your discipline in this business.
Don't be concerned about how much you have to start your
investment business (even though I had a considerable amount of money I could invest, I started
mine with a small amount so I could learn this business). Just learn the skills and reinvest
your profits - they will grow quickly.
Have you lost your
CONFIDENCE?
If you've lost money in the market it can
destroy your confidence. My system will allow
you to trade with100%
confidence again because instead of hoping
to make a profit by guessing what to do, you'll have a plan.
Remember what I said at the top of this letter... this is not
about hype. I will never guarantee you will make money with this business because I can't tell
how you'll use the information that I'm going share with you. Your success in your investment
business depends on only one thing: The decisions YOU make.
The only way for you to make the right decisions is by having
superior knowledge. Once you understand how to REALLY make money, you will trade with total
confidence. That's what I can do for you and I do not say it lightly, it's true.
Also, I cannot give you official investment advice because I
am not an investment adviser registered with the SEC and I am not a CFP (certified financial
planner), so if you watch the videos and you see me trading a certain ETF or stock please do
not interpret it as a recommendation.
I can show you exactly what I do, and how I do it. I'll teach
you virtually everything I know about this business; but the actual decisions you make
withyour money is up to only one person: You.
I can tell you with a high degree of certainty though
-
There is no one who will tell you what I will share with
you. No one.
You could pay $5,000 or more to attend the top
trading seminars, and you still won't learn what I'm going to teach
you!
I went to a $5,000 'high level', 'super
advanced' seminar last year put on by a 25 year veteran - a former floor trader and
market maker in options on the CBOE.
I went to another 2 years ago that costs
$3,000 and I got one tip from it - how to tell if a stock is in a "channel"... no
kidding, that was it! 3,000 dollars!
What I'm going to teach you will blow away anything that I
learned in any of these seminars. I'm not
kidding. In fact, I'd say, in truth, they were almost a waste of my money.
I say 'almost' because they did help a little but they lacked
practical application of the knowledge they presented - it was mostly theory that left the
attendee no better off, in practical terms, than they were when they started.
This course is the real deal...
It really works and very few people (even professionals) teach
anyone how to do this. I know this for a fact because I've talked to some of the pros, and
either they don't know this system, or else they are not willing to admit it.
But there are a few guys who really know this stuff inside and
out (one guy is sort of teaching this and the others arenot teaching it at all). I found
them and picked their brain over and over until I figured it out and came up with a system
based on what they told me.
Most of them didn't even know how to explain what they do--
it's like instinct to them and they couldn't express what they did in a step-by-step coherent
way, so I really had pull it out of them.
Then I put together what I learned, and came up with
acomplete business system that anyone can
follow.
I'll just say that I think it will surprise you how profitable
and easy it is to run - and just 15 minutes a day is all you need.
On the other hand, if you want to make this
afull-time business - you can! There are plenty of opportunities to make even more
money if you have more time to devote to this business.
So let's see if you're the right kind of person to take this
course:
Have you been in the market as an investor and been
disappointed with the results?
Do you stay away from the markets because you think
they are too risky?
Are you confused by technical and fundamental
analysis?
Would you like to stop GUESSING which direction the
markets are going, and take the professional approach to
trading as a business?
Does the idea of managing your business 'by the numbers'
make sense to you?
Does the idea of trading stocks and options as a
real business sound good to you?
If you answered 'YES' to any ONE or more of the questions
above, I think you would be a good candidate for this training.
Here's what you'll be getting in the course...
There are a total of 41 videos within the
course. The videos are grouped into several "Modules", with each Module containing
'hands-on' videos walking you through the topics covered.
We use videos because you can SEE exactly what
to do as you learn, and you can watch them over and over again (if necessary) to review
and build your understanding.
You can download these videos, and watch them
directly on your computer... anytime of the day or night - whenever it's convenient for
your schedule.
The Modules in the course include:
INTRODUCTION TO TRADING AS A BUSINESS & TRADING
WITH CONFIDENCE
This Module is designed to introduce you to a new way to
trade stocks and options - as a business. Emphasis is on risk management
and building a portfolio of trades that can be managed 'by the numbers'.
Learning the craft, acquiring the skills required to be successful in
this business.
This Module contains over 4 hours of great
teaching!
THE GREEKS - MANAGING BY THE
NUMBERS
The 'greeks' play a critical role in your trading business.
I totally de-mystify them and tell you exactly what the greeks are and,
in practical, easy to understand language demonstrate how they impact
your business. The greeks are the numbers you need to understand to
manage your portfolio profitably.
Special report included! I'm also including the
most comprehensive, yet easy to read 5 page CONFIDENTIAL REPORT on how to
profit from "The Greeks" available in the world (yes, the world, and no,
I'm not kidding).
TRADE SELECTION AND STRATEGY
We've set the stage, now it's time to get on with the work
at hand. This is where things get good and interesting. What positions do
we take? How do we determine when and how? Do 'charts' matter? What is
the big picture behind what we're doing?
This Module goes in depth with FIVE videos covering EEM,
ADSK, DIA, SPY, and IWM (Don't worry, you'll understand it all
later!)
PORTFOLIO BUILDING
Build a portfolio by putting on positions that work
together. This is where many traders go wrong - they put on individual
positions and do not understand how they affect your overall
portfolio.
You'll discover why diversification in time frames, prices
and strategies is a key to making money.
This is simply fundamental to being a good
investor.
THE TOOLS OF THE TRADE
ThinkorSwim (TOS), in my opinion is the best broker and has
the best trading platform available. If you had to pay separately for the
kind of analysis tools they give you as an account holder it would cost
you many hundreds of dollars a month in fees - with TOS they're free. I
take you inside the TOS platform and help you access the power you have
at your finger tips.
(There are other programs/software that you can use to
analyze your trades, but TOS is also free when you open an
account.)
PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT BY THE GREEKS, ADJUSTMENTS, VIX
and More...
Now that we have built our portfolio, how do we manage it by
the numbers? We learned the greeks, so now it's time to put them into
action. The key to success is knowing how to look at the numbers and
know, without a doubt, what they mean and what to do with them if
anything.
This module includes 5 killer videos with real life examples
as I manage a portfolio.
THE ART OF ADJUSTMENTS - THE SECRET
KEY
What happens when our numbers don't look good? This is where
99% of all traders get killed in the market... they have no clue what to
do when a position goes against them and they lose money. It's too bad
because most trades can be saved to make a profit!
Imagine making one
small change to your position and increasing your odds of making a profit
by 80%! That's what adjusting can do for you!
In Trading As A Business, we KNOW what to do. We trade with
confidence. We know and understand that when a trade goes against us it's
an OPPORTUNITY to add to our portfolio by adjusting. I call it Smart
Allocation of Capital. The art of adjustments is the missing link in
trading options and stocks that almost no one teaches.
CLOSING POSITIONS
How and when to close positions, and how to close them for
maximum profits. The risks of holding positions into expiration week.
When and how to 'buy' short-term insurance to protect your profits and
increase your wealth in expiration week. How to close positions and get
free trades left over that, although small, have a chance of DOUBLING our
profits.
This module contains 5 videos, and the key theme here is
MAXIMIZING our profits!
THE BIG PICTURE - TECHNICAL
ANALYSIS
What kinds of technical analysis help us in our business?
There are only a few key analysis tools that can help you determine the
probabilities of market direction and I tell you exactly what those are.
I'll give you insights into why the market moves the way it
does.
I'll also give you a historical perspective on market
movements going back to 1900 and give you a realistic plan of attack for
determining future market direction based on factual evidence. In the 2nd
video, I dive into short-term indicators that can sharpen your edge in
the markets to better time your trades. Then I tell you about an
indicator I stumbled on, that predicts short-term and opening market
direction with an amazing degree of accuracy close to 95% of the
time as well as how to determine intra-day movements and how
to tell whether money is flowing into or out of stocks and what it means
for intra-day price trends.
This module contains well over 3 hours of solid
teaching.
ADVANCED TECHNIQUES AND EXPLOSIVE WEALTH BUILDING
STRATEGIES
Not even one of these strategies requires any knowledge of
'technical analysis' - it can help, but it's not required. These make
money whether the market goes up or down. These are strategies you can
manage based on 'the numbers'. One important thing I should mention:
There are ways to make money that are NOT obvious. For example, Strategy
#1 is something I have been studying for years, and it works every time
and cannot fail to work.
Explosive Strategy #1:
Using this one method I turned a $14,000 trade into a $75,000
profit in just 8 months. The most money at risk? Just $650.
That was the total amount that was at risk when this position was
initiated and NO more money was ever put into the position. Amazing
profit/loss ratio. And it doesn't matter if the stock goes up or down but
does require an longer time frame- 6 to 8 months.
It is not uncommon for these trades to create the profits
you can brag about. Want to make a killing in the market? It doesn't get
any better than this.
Explosive Strategy #2:
Another method I call "Flipping Stocks" let's me buy stocks
cheaper than anyone else and if the market does not cooperate with my
plan - I get paid lots of money
for waiting until it does! This is for bigger players with
more capital... but when you have $15k or more to put to work, these
longer term trades generate explosive profits.
I teach it to you in a nice 52 minute video.
Explosive Strategy #3:
This new strategy that has unlimited upside or downside
potential and only $50 or so of risk! This strategy is extremely powerful
and one of the biggest real 'secrets' that no one has ever discussed that
I know of. Wait till you see the power of this strategy.
You can make $1000's
with a total risk of $50 or so. It's extremely powerful. Think
there's no free-lunch on Wall Street? This isn't one either but it's as
close as it gets to one! This is the perfect strategy for playing
earnings reports, takeover news stocks and any stock you think will move
big in any direction with little risk.
Explosive Strategy #4:
If you want to be more active in stocks but hate the risk,
you'll love this. Day trade without the risk normally
associated with day trading. Can be setup to be an 'semi-automated'
trading system. Very powerful and again another low risk, high earning
strategy for more active participants.
This strategy includes 9 videos, and I take you through some
real life trades over the course of 7 days and show you exactly how I
make thousands of dollars with these trades.
I've also included 3 worksheets (Excel
spreadsheets) for your convenience!
Explosive Strategy #5:
If you liked the idea of the monthly income trades but were
wondering how to 'turbo charge' them to make a fortune, then you will
love THIS. Instead of $1000-$2000 a month you could start generating an
income in the $5,000 to $40,000 a
month range after learning this and with a lot less stress
while trading as 'big' as you want.
This last strategy is the 'icing' on the cake... the peak
moment in all your hard study and will be worth 100 times what you
paid for this course - maybe even more. Why didn't I reveal this
until the very end of the course? Simple: You would not be able to use
this strategy without a good foundation that was laid out in the earlier
Modules. Everything we have learned thus far has been leading up to these
explosive strategies.
This
course contains over 40 videos...
totaling over
24 HOURS of me teaching!
The videos and modules are very well organized in an
easy-to-navigate membership area, and they are sequenced in a perfectly logical order so that
you can learn the system one step at a time.
As I mentioned previously, you will not find this material
anywhere else.
The course will be delivered to you 100% online, so you can
get started RIGHT AWAY!
You will be able to download the videos right to your computer
so you can watch them at your leisure. They will play on all kinds of computers... Windows or
Mac. You may also make one copy of these videos on a storage device (CD, DVD or external drive)
but may not allow anyone else to view, copy or share them. They are for your use only. (with
the exception of your spouse)
So... what's the price?
I've made this incredibly affordable
so you can learn it without any serious financial stress.
As I mentioned I have been to seminars for
$3,000 and $5,000 and you will getmuch more from
this course than both of those combined. I've also seen one trading course that charges $7,500 just for
online access to learn the basics of options!
So right there, you can see that the VALUE of
this course is easily in the thousands.
But I'm not done adding value yet
!

Okay, so now I've just added$394 worth of bonuses onto the
course.
Considering that the course itself is easily worth thousands, and
even the bonuses are worth over $300, I decided to price the course at $1000.00. I hope you will agree that
it's a very fair and reasonable price for the entire package.
However, I know that the economy has dealt a hard blow to many of
the people who need this information the most.
Therefore, I want to make it as easy as possible for you to buy
today.
Instead of the normal price of $1000.00, I'm slashing the price
like a crazed ninja!
If you buy today, you can have complete access to the entire
program for...
$1,000.00$497.00Only$197!
But this is a limited time offer. As I will explain below, I
really need to limit the number of members I allow into the program, and if I sell it too cheap for too long,
it will fill up too quickly and I'll be swamped with questions from new customers.
Therefore, I'm setting a strict limit, and if we don't completely
sell out, the price will continue to go up!
That's not a misprint. I'm going to give you FULL access to this
potentially life-changing program for
your payment of only$497 $197today.
You will get the entire thing INSTANTLY when you join
today.
Also,I want to let you

There is no "one time offer", or anything else that youhave to buy to complete the course.

extra for the super-powerful strategies

and I'm going to give it ALL to you in one price.
Remember, you're
getting...

P.S.- You could attempt to learn this by trial and error on your own, but I
assure you it will be a MUCH more costly "education" than the one I'm offering you today for a very
reasonable price.
P.S.S. - It cost me years of frustration, bad trades, and huge
financial losses before I figured out the "secret" system. I've watched too many smart yet "uneducated"
people lose their shirts in the stock market, and I don't want to see that happen to you. PLEASE... if
you're going to invest your money anywhere, get my course so you can avoid the pain. I'll show you how
to trade the low-risk, profitable way that will bring you profits regardless of whether the
stock market is going up or down!)
