The simple truth is that this is not something that I ever planned to do. I have been interested and involved in trading (and investing) for almost 20 years. The more I learned about trading, the more interested I was in doing this instead of the software business I owned at the time. So in 2000, I sold out and have been trading full-time ever since.

Because I have a passion for all things trading and the markets, I have attended many trading club meetings over the years. On occasion I have been asked to speak and have done so. From these presentations, as well as just meeting others at various functions, I am often asked about my trading strategy.

I don't really mind sharing what I do, and up until recently I did it all for free. It seems nobody out there was actually doing this for real (except all the BS traveling roadshow charlatans) and I was just getting mobbed at meetings and later with emails. So I came up with a charge that was just high enough that only those traders who were really serious about this as a business would want to participate. I can still help, and now it’s fun again.

It is not intended to be a big moneymaker, but I know from doing this already that it gets pretty involved and eats up a lot of time. My primary focus is trading (and the lifestyle I alluded to on the Home Page) so I only work with a few people each month. And, I really want to see my "students" succeed at this.

Stock, futures and futures options trading have large potential rewards, but also substantial risk of loss, is not for everyone and only risk capital should be invested.
