Face it. Most people would like to...
- Make more money than they do
- Retire early
- Have a better life
- Have financial options that gives them the ability to make better choices for them and their family
Ask yourself...
- If you won a multi-million dollar lottery today how would your life be different?
Fact is...
- It won't happen; you winning it big
Isn't it time then to take control of your financial future?
I began in 2004 taking control of my financial future. I put in over 4000 hours to learn how the big boys on Wall Street have been making millions of dollars for years. Before the Internet it simply was not possible to learn how to do what they do. Do you think those guys are doing the same thing the broker or financial adviser in the town near you is doing? NO!! Why not? If they were doing the same thing then they would have to take a big pay cut. It is not hard to make the kind of money they make if one devotes themselves to learning how. Be as smart as you are but take time to train and train before you trade.
Anyone can learn to trade and get average results. Why settle for average when you can have excellence. If average earns you $50,000 per year and excellence earns you $200,000 per year, is it not worth the extra time and effort to learn to be excellent rather than just average? With such a difference average would earn a person $250,000 in 5 years while excellence earns a person $1,000,000 in the same 5 years. Once you have taken the time to learn to be excellent it actually takes less time to make $200,000 a year than it takes the person who trained to be average to make $50,000 a year. Not only does excellence bring you more money to enjoy but it brings you more time to enjoy it. We are talking for the rest of your life here, not just for a year or two.
What then is the difference between average and excellence? Finding the right vehicle and training to use that vehicle for maximum performance. Many people find the vehicle but want to make money so badly that they train to become average. It takes patience and hard work to train for excellence but the payoff is worth it and the pay off will last you for the rest of your life. Take time to be excellent. Practice does not make perfect, perfect practice makes perfect. You must first take time to perfect what you are doing and then practice how to do it perfectly. Otherwise your practice is only to make you average at best.
I learned how to double my money trading options in the stock market every 6 months using WizeTrade software (www.wizetrade.com). Many people don't believe it. If you believe it can't be done then you are right, it will never happen for you. How then do you explain those who are doing it? They are no better or smarter than you. They simply know things you don't. If only you can believe just a little bit you can then take steps to explore the possibilities. Once you learn of the possibilities you will begin to believe enough to take steps to learn how you can make money like the guys on Wall Street.
WizeTrade creates many fantastic tools to help the individual to become a masterful investor. One of those tools is WizeTrade TV (http://www.wizetradetv.com/). Unfortunately, many people taking advantage of such tools jump in expecting to make money fast. Some people do but most don't. There are many different platforms, styles, and strategies for the individual investor to profit from. There is no one size fits all. It is important that the individual know and carefully chose the right platform, style, and strategy that is best for them.
What happens too often is that all the individual knows is that they want to make some money, they want to make it right away, they hear what others are doing to make money, so they jump on it and follow along. Doing so, some lose money right away and get discouraged. Others make money only to gain some confidence to where they then take bigger risks without knowing what they are doing and at some point they end up losing a lot of money.
With each platform, style, and strategy there is a different set of technical and mental skills a person must master to be consistently successful. One can know a lot of technical skill and think they know all they need to know about how to make money. What they fail to understand is that the mental skills are the most important when it comes to trading. Without having developed the right set of mental skills the investor will never be more than average or they may achieve greatness but then fail greatly as well.
Becoming an investor or trader using WizeTrade products is like being handed a beautiful puzzle picture that represents the life you are about to embark on creating. There are many beautiful puzzle pictures. Each puzzle picture represents a combination of a different trading platform (stocks, options, commodities, foreign currency), a different trading style (day trading, swing trading, intermediate trading, and long term trading), and a different trading strategy for which there are too many to list and many are specific to the platform and/or style chosen.
Not every picture will appeal to any given trader. For most traders they will find many pictures that appeal to them but it is a matter of discovering which picture is the best fit for their individual ability, personality, current day lifestyle, and their dreams and goals. Pick the wrong one and you will have a mess, or at best, an average picture. Pick the right one and you will have excellence and have something you truly only dreamed of before.
You begin by not knowing any information about any of the pictures and are given a big box of puzzle pieces to create your beautiful picture. Before getting your box of pieces all the many puzzle pictures that are out there get broken up into thousands of small pieces and put into just one box. Now you have that one box but you have no idea what the picture looks like or the fact that there are many pictures in that box.
The trader who has been around for a while recognizes that there are different puzzles in the box but finds it difficult to sort out all the pieces. The new trader does not understand that there are different puzzles and not only finds it difficult to sort out all the pieces but also finds it very confusing trying to do so. None the less, the box is then handed to you and you proceed to put together the puzzle without even knowing there is more than one puzzle, without knowing what puzzle you should be putting together, or without even knowing what any of the puzzles look like.
WizeTrade gives us all the pieces. There is a lot of help and support available to put the pieces together but it is left up to the individual trader to sort through and identify the pieces to their puzzle. Also left to the individual trader is to figure out which of the puzzle pictures is the best fit in their life but you are given little information about the fact that there are many pictures to choose from.
You are given some instructions for putting your puzzle together but the instructions are sort of blended together since there are so many puzzles, leaving the trader a bit confused to begin with. There seems to be no clear direction. You dig in and start trying to put the puzzle together. Some are encouraged by a bit of early success while others are discouraged for the lack of success. Those with early success later meet with discouragement as their early success fades away. Many become confused and maybe even lose some (or even a lot of) money without really knowing what you are doing because you don’t know there are multiple puzzles and that you have to find all the parts to one puzzle and put the pieces together.
You begin pulling puzzle pieces out of the box and proceed at building your picture. As a result you build little pieces of the puzzle here and there. Before you know it you have many little pieces of the puzzle put together without even knowing that what you have done is put together pieces of several different pictures together. Then you try putting those individual pieces together and experience frustration because they don't seem to come together. You still don't understand that in that box of puzzle pieces you were handed contained the pieces of many different puzzles. You finally figure that out and begin to focus on just one picture. You go to work sorting out all the pieces so you then have the pieces for your picture. You finally begin putting together your picture and you realize that picture is not the one that fits you the best. Realizing this you then put that picture aside and jump to another one.
You are led to think it is all so simple but you are frustrated because it does not seem to work as simple as you were led to think. The simplicity gets complicated by all the confusion and frustration you experience in sorting out the many pieces of a puzzle that you have not even yet identified. You may have purchased one of the platforms because you did not know about the others and since you purchased that one you focus on it when in fact one of the others may be better suited for you. By trying to use the platform that is not the one that is best suited for you your frustration increases. Hearing about the success of others only serves to increase your frustration.
You start trying to develop a particular trading style because you hear and see so much discussion about it that you automatically assume that is the best trading style for you without ever knowing why or if it is in fact the one that best suits you. By not identifying and focusing on the trading style that is best suited to you, you only add to the frustration you experience.
You begin to learn some strategies but if they don’t fit with the trading platform and style that is best suited to you individually you only add to your frustration again. It is like giving a mechanic dental tools to build an engine from individual parts to running. If you have made it this far with all your frustration you are ready to take your box of puzzle pieces and throw it in the garbage without ever having the opportunity to see how absolutely beautiful the picture is if you were able to just put together the puzzle that best suited you. What you end up with is having taken several years putting together parts of several puzzles only to then throw it all away.
I started trading equities as a day trader using WizeTrade. Then I moved to swing trading. Then I moved onto day trading options. Then I became a religious trader who hoped and prayed my trades would work out and became a swing trader. With each move I sorted out the pieces to another puzzle and had to put it together. But then I found that the picture that appealed the most to me was that of using WizeTrade Options (identified my platform) to trade long calls and puts as a position trader (identified my style) doing Thompson trades (identified my strategy) so I moved again and again had to sort through all the pieces. Until I figured it all out I lost thousands of hours and many thousands of dollars in the process.
I know there are other pictures and the picture that I have grabbed hold of will not appeal to everyone. I guess that is why WizeTrade has so many different puzzle pictures to offer. I found four other puzzle pictures that I liked myself and put them together before finding the one that appealed to me the most and it is one I knew absolutely nothing about before getting started in all of this. This is the one I like the most and I know exactly what it is about it that I like. You should know and feel the same for the platform, style, and strategy that you chose.
Whatever picture puzzle a person finds that they like, they need to know exactly what it is about that one that makes it fit their life the best and why. If you don’t know or if it does not fit well then it is important to either find out or pick another one that better suits you or else find yourself taking the expense and time of going through the learning curve more than once like I did. Fact is, I believe there are a lot of traders out there who are confused because all they really know is that they want to make money and so they get handed a big box of puzzle pieces and try making a picture out of it without even knowing if that is the one they will like. And again there are a lot of confused, frustrated, and disappointed traders because of this.
There are also those traders who jump back and forth between more than one puzzle and never get just one of the puzzles completed. They may end up creating something that is average but they will never create something that is excellent. I guess the grass always looks greener on the other side of the fence. And again there are a lot of confused, frustrated, and disappointed traders because of all of this.
Now don’t let me miss lead you, to get to where I am took a lot of hard work and a lot of time. In fact I doubt most people would or could put in the amount of hard work and time that I have to get here. Most people would have quit along the way. Some may have stuck with it only to achieve average results. Few figure out how to get to a level of excellence. The good news is that students who have taken my training course have only had to put in a small fraction of the hard work and time needed to achieve phenomenal results in their trading.
What we do is to form online and local groups of traders who begin training together. They are training groups, not trading groups. We strive to bring to each student the highest level of excellence that the WizeTrade software is capable of delivering to the trader. Most don’t realize that in order to execute a successful trading plan, they need to create a plan focusing on the training of trading first. We also offer one on one coaching and mentoring for those who want a fast track.
Be it individual coaching and mentoring or group training, my training course is a self study curriculum based learning approach where students have assignments to do each and every week. Each week builds on the previous weeks. The curriculum works hand in hand with all that WizeTrade has to offer to give the trader the training program they need. It offers the trader a method to keep improving both their mental and technical skills to become a successful trader on par with excellence. With everyone in these groups being on the same page, looking at the same picture, then they can better help one another put all the pieces together by working together in an online group and training to achieve excellent, rather than average, results.
Our training programs take the individual and help them master the mental and technical skills needed for their specific platform, style, and strategy. Our training programs begin by helping them know what their options are on different platforms, styles, and strategies and then pick the platform, style, and strategy that is best suited to them. Once that has been done the foundation is laid and we begin to train them how to maximize their results.
One can begin with as little as $5,000 and turn it into a yearly income of over $100,000 in a few years. Some people I teach begin with over $100,000 and experience how quickly their life can change once they learn what to do.
I have fast tracks and slow tracks for learning I can put people on. It may take you 6 months or 10 years to learn depending on the training program you choose. How long it takes you is not important. What is important is that you get started and don't quit. Where will you be in 5 to 10 years from now if you don't get started today? Just think back where you were 5 years ago. Isn't it time now to get started?
Here are some comments made by people I have taught:
It all works. Everything Mark has lead us through for past 1 1/2 years works. Just like he said it would. My account is currently at 104%. Sounds incredible. It works.

I second that! I had my doubts. Especially last January when I realized how quickly an OTM lost its value on a pull back and how slowly it came back, if it came back. I was beginning to think I should stick with the DEPOT method But I worked through the exercises and went live with my trading 5/8/08. As of today my account is up 47% (in June).
Back when we started, I had a vague idea what an option was and could almost navigate the software when I spoke with a friend. She had purchased the Investools software and was trading live, with little in common we did not stay in touch. This week I emailed her to see how she was doing. To date, she has lost 75% of her retirement account and had quit trading 3 months ago. She had spent about 16k on software and training before she went live.
Her trainers encouraged her to go live because: 'you can't get a feel for the market unless you are in the market'. Thank you, thank you, thank you Mark for suggesting we not trade for the first year.

I started out last year February with a single position 10-contracts of RIO @$2.50 ($2500). This was my "ginnie pig" account... by June my entire account value was $82,000 (eventually went as high as $103,000) I closed the Year with the balance of $78,000. After paying "Uncle Sam" and swithcing some money into me SEP IRA, I started to trade again with $35,500,, currently (June 2008) my account is $57,000...
This year it's not the same market,,lots of Ups and Downs but I'm still optomestic to ink out 300% for the year...
