I feel that it's only fair that I post a follow up after I've had first hand experience with Dan's mentoring program. I'm 3 weeks into the course, and I can assure you that there is very little chance that you can pick up the things that Dan teaches by reading books. The main difference...

Hi Nancy Thanks for sharing, I found your post very useful.

Maverick, I'd love to have that info. Thank you!

Cache Landing, Not saying I disagree with you, but this has been my personal experience, and my thoughts on this. Each year we spend trying to find a workable strategy, we could be making 20-30% on our money. There are tons and tons of books out there, but very few of them have workable...

Great point that you make Richard, I'll keep that in mind.

Thanks for the info blackchip. I just had a thought that I want to throw out to Dan's ex-students and other experienced options traders. Disclaimer: I'm not an experienced trader, so let me know if my assumptions are way off. I'll make a few assumptions here, because I'm not sure what kind...

Check out this website: www.sheridanmentoring.com You should be able to get in as an alumni. If you find anything interesting in there (strategies not working etc.) pls let us know.

Maverick74, Thanks for your input. I'll ask Dan about that, appreciate it.

Thanks for the input!

I asked Dan the same question, did you trade the same strategies in the pit, that you're teaching us? His answer is no. He couldn't possibly trade like a retail trader in the pits because he was a specialist, and had no choice in what he traded. If someone came in and wanted to buy 500 puts...

blackchip, Is it really compulsory to subscribe to OptionVue, even after the mentoring period? That would really suck as I heard the software and data fees were very expensive! On students not doing well in middle of 06, I think that will be the fault of the students and not the methods or...

winningtrader, Why do you say his strategies won't work for off the floor traders? All his strategies (ICs, DDs, Butterflys, Calendars, Ratio spreads, etc.) are all strategies regularly traded by retail traders. It doesn't depend on special floor privelages like buying on the bid, or selling...

daddy's boy, If you watch the older Iron Condor videos, Dan says to go out 1SD and about 25 days. In the more recent videos, like the Iron Condor Adjustment webcasts, he says to go out 70 days and use the deltas of the short puts and calls (7-9 deltas if I remember correctly) to choose your...

Ok, here's what I think after watching the video from Trading Concepts that they sent me, and speaking with Dan. My personal opinion is that the income strategies from Trading Concepts revolved mainly around trading collars. What I didn't really like was the many speculative type...

Seriously, has no one ever heard of John Ondercin? According to his website he's been doing this for 12 years and counting, surely there must be lots of people who've taken his course by now? The thing I like about Ondercin's course is the unlimited lifetime support. And the fact that he...

Rallymode, are you aware of some fact that Dan is not profitable trading the strategies he teaches? One of the red lights I had was when I watched the old CBOE webcasts on iron condors, and then watched the newer ones, the steps he teaches are different. For e.g. in the old one he said go...

I have been buying and reading books for the past 4-5 years, and I still have not found a tradable plan yet that consistently makes money. And I have read lots of books, from options to mechanical trading systems, to TA to momentum trading etc. Just like learning how to cycle or swim, I...

Hi I'm considering signing up for an options mentoring course, either: 1) Dan Sheridan's course http://www.optionvue.com/Education_Sheridan.aspx or 2) John Ondercin's course http://www.optionsmentoring.com/ Does anyone with experience with them provide your feedback? Thanks in...
