I am one of your MDT subscribers in Tasmania Australia (currently 16 hours ahead of NY).

I have a regular day job, and am unable to day trade US markets and an unable to participate in the bi-weekly webinars. And although a MDT subscriber for nearly three years now it is only that last six months that I have got into the groove of your webinars and daily updates.

mostbet mostbet giriş mostbet mostbet giriş mostbet mostbet giriş mostbet mostbet giriş mostbet mostbet giriş

The daily updates on the markets levels have been very instructive as to where JT places his spreads, so that now I have started placing my own independently with success.

When the market dipped at the horror of a Trump win on 6 Nov, it seemed like a good time to put with a (SPY) $204-$207 Bear Put Spread.

This success led me to put on a (SPY) $222-$225 Bear Put Spread on 15 Nov when the (SPY) was 217. Your persistent subsequent urging not to short the market led me to look for an exit. This came on Friday 18th when the market dipped again, allowing me to exit for a 9 cent? loss.

Of course I should have applied the same logic (likely further rise in the market? further falling of VXX) to JTs VXX position at the same time. Would have come with a similar negligible loss instead of (as JT said) a nosebleed.

I have just started writing covered calls on my Interactive Brokers platform and have covered (weekly) calls on FCX (long 10.02) and FEYE (long 12.38) and managing to stay in the game.

There has been a noticeable uplift in your voice in recent webinars as market action has picked up.

Keep up the good work.

Kind regards

Thanks for your very informative daily updates and stories. I subscribe to four daily investment advisors and yours are the only one I always read and almost always follow.

I followed your trades to the letter and most were successful. The problem was I was not trading live (always at least half a day late and sometimes a full day due to the time difference (US versus AUD), and my trade size was too small.

I am basically using your alerts as the trigger to place the trade as a CFD (entry via a stop just above previous day?s high ? for a long/call) and then manage them with a trailing stop loss using the daily charts (stop loss just below previous day?s low unless the day was an inside bar).

This seems to work much better and entry and exits from trades are far more successful at the price you want to trade at.

Looking forward to applying this strategy for 2017 and hopefully I will catch up with you next time you are in Australia.

Hope you have a great XMAS and New Year.

Regards,

Dear MHFT,

I've just completed my third year trading under your guidance. I'm intensely interested in events that move markets and I find your knowledge to be quite insightful. 2016 was a breakout year for me as I made $382,000 on a trading account that started the year with $700,000. Keep sharing your wisdom!

As a new subscriber of just under two months, I thought I'd check in with you.

I am really enjoying your service. I look forward to your daily diaries for their wit and wisdom. I don't miss a webinar. I very much appreciate that you take the time to answer questions by e-mail.

You are helping cure me of bad habits like being unable to cut losses or take profits, being wedded to positions, and investing through ideology rather than intelligence (such as the idea that gold is always a safe haven, oil is running out and can only go up, etc.).

And you're clearly a big-hearted guy with much wisdom both in and out of the market.

I'm looking forward to trading more successfully in the New Year with your help. You've clearly helped a lot of people and I'm looking forward to being one of them.

Wishing you the happiest of holidays up the hill in Tahoe,

Jonathan

Hey John and the MAD Team, here's an early Happy New Years!
?
You really nailed and keep nailing great reversals and trends that are just beginning to deserve a watchful eye. I nailed it today, so far, just buying the JPY pairs, and shorting the big bond, this past couple weeks.

I'm still a bit stuck on futures, but I realize the safety in your spreads is a lot smarter...Thx for all you know and for all you do.

Rod,

John,

Thanks for the "Heads up" on Nvidia (NVDA).?

It took a little patience to bear with all that happened last week,?but you were spot on and my $70 call option paid off 100% for a sweet 10k profit in less than a few weeks.

Keep them coming John.? After seven years with your service, I rely on you to keep my retired wife in the style she has become accustomed to living.?

Life is good and so are you.

I have benefited greatly from your whole approach to chart analysis, including extreme bands, trend analysis 253/200, William's 30, OB/OS, levels, ADX, CMF, down to up, just to name the most important ones for me.

For almost a year I focused on day trading the levels in the (SPX) and some other symbols.? My results were mixed with losers tending to out weigh winners. ?

Consequently I have been focusing on figuring out option strategies, which take more consistent advantage of the chart analysis tools that you have provided me.

I am now having more success, but still have a long way to go.

Right now, I have a short in (MCD) and (TSLA) expiring on November 18, based on what I interpret from the tools that you have introduced me to.? We will see how they fare.

Anyway, I just want to say that I gain a lot from your training.?

Thanks so much and keep up the good work.

I watched John Thomas for a year before jumping in, and I should have done it earlier when he phenomenally traded that awful year, 2011, that whipsawed so many investors including myself.

He again outperformed the market in 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 and so far he has shown amazing skill once more in navigating treacherous markets with deep-in-the-money call and put spreads.

You can not exactly replicate his numbers 100% of the time for many different reasons, some of them strictly technical in nature.

But you will get most of them, or you can use his trade alerts just directionally to help you determine where you should put your money and how to allocate your dollars risk on vs. risk off.

I am up 20% trading with John since October 2015. I also like John's in-depth charts, market insights, and his educational webinars, that have become the cornerstone of my market evaluations.

One should never put all eggs in the same basket, but subscribing to the Mad Hedge Fund Trader is a smart way to enhance the performance of your stock portfolio.
