I learn alot from you. If I wasn't still working full-time (I'm 55 and hope to retire at 60 with average pension and become a full time trader) I would sign up for your mentoring class. Question: Would you say the chart for the UWM (Proshares Ultra Russell 2000) is exactly like the Russell 2000 e-mini chart that you follow daily/ intraday? I want to paper trade Russell eminis following the skills that you have taught but I cannot get access to a Russell emini intraday to paper trade unless I sign up for Tradestation and pay $100 per month? Other Russell charts are UVT-Ultra Russell 2000 Value and UKK-Ultra Russell 2000 Growth OR, what Russell trade/chart do you say is best that follows the Russell eminis exactly?? Ron, Thanks again for all work on your web site. It is a wealth of knowledge. I hope to be your student in about 4 years. Maybe we can go fishing for some real fish one day. :) Nergo Ron,

I like to workout or at least walk the dog(king charles spaniel). I used to be a floor trader in Toronto, before becoming a nurse. The need for more responsibilities led me to become a perfusionist( operated the heart-lung machine for bypasses, transplants etc). Due to a severe car accident I was unable to function as a perfusionist. Although in the medical profession I frequently read charts and did options for others.I continue to read alot of charts and blogs about trading. I really enjoy the trading and have learned alot about myself, good and bad. Male, 55years old. married with two step daughters. I like to workout or at least walk the dog(king charles spaniel).

I've learned plenty so far and hope to catch on and catch the big ones! Short term objective-$150 to 300/day. Long term $500to 700/day. I need to show more patience and not react and trade just to trade. Therefore I will take long position if I get an IVB, at support with a green Woodies ISMA.Short position when painted candle and IVB together, red woodie ISMA and a change appears in the trend. On breakouts must wait for the second candle to appear whether to the upside or downside with either an IVB and woodie ISMA which agree. If a scalp trade occurs with an IVB then use a pivot as the point of exit either short or long. Porfit should be in the range of 7 to 15 points. Trade range bound set-ups only if there is a clear signal with an objective which makes the risk worth taking.Not sure if this is clear or concise enough would enjoy feedback. I would also like to more info regarding traders trick,bobbers and the IVB and OVB so I can write them down. Thanks Ron and Frances for everything!

For the last month I have traded the ES and then switched to the YM. The reason for the switch was I couldn't make the adjustment to the speed of the ES plus I was learning. A month on and I am still getting not making any money except for one last week. I keep getting stopped out and then it goes back to the trend I was in. I am following the MACD, RSI, Pivot points, DMI with a two line moving average. I'm getting frustrated with the lack of progress, only to see the trend go away from me after being stopped out. Any suggestions? Sincerely, Bill Cook Hi Ron, We had talked several months back and I need some guidance. For the last month I have traded the ES and then switched to the YM.

Thank you Hi Ron,

Thanks, Brian Ron,

Is there a reason you didn't call out this trade...I am trying to understand. Thanks.
