I don't have a fancy degree, I don't have insider knowledge, and I was broke and nearly dead when I started trading. In fact, I was so broke at one time I couldn't pay my mortgage or car payment. I was slowly killing myself by working 18 hours a day printing T-shirts in a tiny shop barely big enough to swing a cat in. I pushed myself so hard that my doctor told me after I collapsed it was only a matter of time before I had a heart attack, stroke, or both. The doctor, like all well-meaning people, gives you advice like some fairy godmother could suddenly come and make everything O.K. I had a family and children to look after and I didn't need a doctor to tell me that something needed to change. My problem was I honestly didn't know what to do. I tried everything I could with the limited time I had. I bought mail order get-rich-quick deals. I borrowed money to attend seminars on everything from buying a franchise to health supplements. Nothing worked and I intuitively knew it wasn't because I was dumb or lazy. They were just scams.Īlong the way I answered an ad on how to learn to trade Forex, and went along to a FREE talk. I knew it was a scam because they couldn't answer some common sense questions like.Ĭan you show me proof of how much money you have made?Ĭan you show me proof of any live trades you have made?īy the way, one of my statements is below.īut two thing happened that got me hooked. I met two other people there who were just as broke as I was. They had been investigating the Forex market longer than I had and even though they hadn't made any money, they had talked to genuine traders who had. The problem was that the really good traders wouldn't tell them how they did it. We took turns shelling out for pizza and beer.Īs many of you probably know I was a Marine and we don't leave our men behind so one night when we had too many beers we came up with a saying: Their names were Big Al, who talked at half the speed of a normal man, and John Burr, who just so happened to be a computer genius.Īs small as my T-shirt shop was, we met in there once a week for months. That catch phrase has stayed with me for 16 years and I would like to think that the more than 3,000 people I have worked with can testify to that. We pitched in to by courses, attend seminars, and even paid for a so-called guru to teach us. I noticed that just before a big market move, one of the indicators I was using behaved in a certain way at certain levels. I asked John if he could figure out how to test my theory using hundreds of days of data from the past, or back-testing as we call it. For the first time ever we had figured out how to make money in the Forex market. I would love to tell you the whole story and what happened over the years, but I have something far more important to tell you. That's why you absolutely must keep reading all the way to the end of this letter. It will save you spending thousands of dollars on things that don't work and getting frustrated with people who can't help you because they can't trade themselves. It will also save you hundreds of hours of looking for a solution that I already have and am prepared to share with a few people who you meet my criteria. You just don't have time to research this stuff. And trust me, there is a mountain of B.S. Let me show you how easy this can be for you.
