Training; the Story So Far

Its Sunday and just before 6am in France where I am for the weekend after a hectic round of 7 days of usually 14 hours a day in the training room.


We have 25 people working incredible hours along the path to CP. I have people from the west coast of the United States starting their "day" with me at 6.30am London time but its 10.30pm in California. There are guys from Australia who start work in the room at 6.30pm their time and are still there 14 hours later when the dawn is breaking in Sydney and Perth.


All the people in the room have a few things in common, they have a hunger for knowledge, they are determined to succeed as traders, and they realise that the harder they work, the luckier they get. Sadly there is just one lady in the room. Ladies make great electronic traders.


We started off with a couple of days of information overload and each day added another layer to complete the puzzle. By Friday afternoon, while the ES was melting down, I saw a bunch of previously breakeven or less traders, making consistently profitable paper trades of the ES, on a day that sadly must have sent a lot of traders back to their 9 to 5 jobs. During the week, I saw the lights turn on above the heads of some of the people in the room. I am sure all the 25 are not yet in the happy position of "getting it" but there is over 3 months to go and I know if they continue to work the way they are, our 1 to 1 sessions will catapault them to where they want to be.


So to all of you on the training, I`m having a ball, you are a great bunch and I am looking forward to seeing each and everyone of you consistently profitable. I think its a lot closer than you thought.
