We love your stories and adventures. I truly know of no one who lives life to the fullest as much as you do. Congratulations! You give us all something to shoot for and making each day count. We certainly hope you and your family are well.
I’ve enclosed a small gift, four pounds of French style Pecan pralines made here in our own kitchen. Just don’t eat it all at once.
All of your members are so happy that you are trying to make the financial world a little better for them. I am sure your Marine dad would be very proud of what you are doing, but not surprised.
We are always here for you. You do an amazing job!
First and foremost, thanks for a great year. Like you said, I will let the Dec PCS's and my remaining Jan '25 leaps run to max profit. Enjoy your cruise. Jane and I will hit the beaches in the Caribbean as our reward.
Looking forward to planning to see you in Florida as soon as the schedule is published.
I was pondering a TESLA trade alert from MHFT today when my cell rang with a Lake Tahoe area code. Since I know a couple of people in that part of the world, I answered, and it was none other than John Thomas.
If I had not heard his voice on the MHFT webinars, I would have thought I was being conned. But given that I’m in the last month of a trial run, he actually called to find out how I was doing with the service and what I thought.
Here’s the short version of what I told him.
I’m a pretty experienced investor, but definitely not sophisticated when it comes to using options, or for that matter, trading currencies and commodities.
My first trade with MHFT – a (FXY) vertical call spread – literally scared the hell out of me, so I used a tiny position size. I think I made around $900 (more than my trial subscription, so there’s that).
But through the process of using John’s trade ideas, I learned. Fast. Nothing will help you grasp the potential of option strategies like doing them. And as I write this, I have multiple positions on courtesy of MHFT that are on track to deliver double-digit percentage gains in a matter of weeks!
I can’t quite comprehend how he knows so many well-placed people, but he’s incredibly adept at grabbing insights from them, turning these into an investment thesis, and making it incredibly clear and actionable to this reader base.
One day, he’s writing about a chat with a three-star general, and the next, you’re buying a call spread on Palo Alto Networks. He connects the dots in a ridiculously useful way.
But it’s more than just the idea, it’s the timing of the idea. The world is full of people who can say, “hey, cyber-security is a big deal.” Or, “wow, the euro is getting killed.” But the actual trade execution to profit from that in the near term? He’s freaky good.
I also love the defined exit strategy. Look, if you’re the most disciplined human on the planet and never let a bad trade turn into a long-term “investment,” more power to you.
I am not. I hate it when I do it, but it’s happened more than once. With MHFT, the exit is well-marked. You can’t miss it. Personally, I find that removes significant stress, not to mention risk.
Today, I was over at my local Schwab office – before John called – and was raving about MHFT. Not stark raving. Good raving. I’d be surprised if they aren’t signing up for a trial as I write this.
John, thanks for the call. That was a really nice surprise.
But more importantly, thanks for your great work, thinking, and ideas. Enjoy your travels, and I look forward to meeting you at one of your conferences.

Thanks for the 10-bagger on Palantir. I bought it at $7.50 and it’s now at $63.50, so I'd call that close enough to qualify. You pointed me to this company long ago, and I was patient.
I just wanted to drop you a note and let you know how much I enjoy reading my daily emails from you. You provide tons of information in a clear manner - with humor thrown in to boot!
Great ideas for longer term investing that have more than paid for my yearly subscription already.
After losing money with a million different advisory services and registered brokers I finally found YOU, and YOU make it all worth it!!! Thanks a bunch. I have so much confidence in you!

The small cost of this newsletter pays for itself a thousand times over. My returns mimic those of your portfolio for the year and for that I am grateful.
The only suggestion I would offer is to keep doing what you are doing. It is people like you that will help return the once storied name to Wall Street.
I just wanted to send my thanks for creating such a wonderful newsletter. It is very hard in today's world to sift the wheat from the chaff.
The reason I am reaching out today is that a few days ago John came out with a piece regarding other newsletters. I have been following you for the past few years and from what I have seen and have traded, this is by far the most valuable service that I have luckily stumbled across.
Enclosed please find a bonus check for $10,000 on top of my regular Concierge fee. I have done so well this year I feel I owe it to you.
I look forward to our next meeting. I’m hoping to finish up my paperwork so I can focus on full-time trading. My intention is to focus on the John Thomas Way and complete my MHFT education through your mentorship and travel experiences.
I made it to Cortina on my European vacation paid for entirely by my successful trades this year from the Mad Hedge Fund Trader.
Today, we hiked to Lago di Sorapis and I am now enjoying a Dolomiti on the veranda. I will depart tomorrow to continue through the Alps to avoid the heatwave in southern Italy.
Tonight, I will be searching for a few Bond girls….but haven’t seen any yet.
Best regards,
David
