I had done newsletter investing for many years.  But had grown tired of simply watching choices being made for me and wanted to learn more about the markets by doing some day trading.   So, I put a lot of my spare time into reading, studying and attending various trading and psychological transformation seminars.  Eventually I felt ready.  My day trading adventure lasted all of twelve trading days before I decided to lick my wounds and save my remaining trading capital.  Something very essential was missing and I thought a trading coach might help me identify how I to improve my trading.
 
So, I sifted through the many coaching and mentoring offerings mentioned in trader’s forums, on the web and those I ran into through word of mouth.  Eventually, through a very respected source, I found Jeff’s website.  I was immediately drawn to the structure of his program and his long experience, directly trading in the markets.  But I only decided to sign up after talking to him about his systematic and continuous improvement approach trading.  
 
“So here we are.”  These words often start our sessions and have come to represent for me Jeff’s direct, yet subtle mentoring style.   For to me, this phrase reminds me to stay focused, attend to the market, my trading plan, and move beyond excessive judgments about “mistaken trades.”   Now, four months into the program, Jeff has helped me create my own unique personal trading approach and a confidence to trade the e-minis successfully.  It is not because he handed me the perfect setup or a magic indicator.  It is because he helped me cultivate an understanding to recognize where to place the trade, when to get out and develop a courage to stay in.  I can’t say this process was easy, that it matched any of my preconceived ideas about trading or that I have nothing left to learn.  I can only say that this very satisfying place in my trading journey would not have been possible without Jeff’s experienced guidance, warm personality and wonderful sense of humor.  He really has a great knack for working at one’s own level of understanding and pace. 

Jeff, I am grateful for your teachings and look forward to our continued relationship.
