I can show you how to trade.
Infact I can show you the entire package from financial vehicle to broker, order entry, take profit exits, tax issues ... the entire ball of wax.
It has only consumed every waking hour of my life for 9 years to throw this little package together.
Now this is what I can offer you.
All you have to do in return is give me a reason why I should do this for you.

Reveal myself? WTF are you talking about. How about having a sense of humour. Yes there are mentors out there, but good ones are hard to find.
Someone from this thread actually took time to help me out in the past. I don't think you'll find too many people who are like that, both knowledgeable and generous. I was lucky.
Good Luck.

The waiting line for my services is over 3 years right now. Many people seem to obviously want what you describe here above.Quote from BrooksRimes:
We are in our late 40s/early 50s and looking for an experienced, successful trader (i.e. profitable, multi-year track record) to teach us to trade in-person. We can travel freely and will come to you. We are good students and easy to work with. Are not interested in obtaining a Series 7 license or doing high volumes of daily trades. Would prefer trading one or a limited number of issues such as futures, indexes, currencies, ETFs, etc. Am flexible. Compensation to be mutually agreed upon and you will make lifelong friends. Please PM if you are interested and qualified. (Note: if you sell a $3000, 2 day course, make pretend you never saw this
Don't expect to learn for a few $1,000 something that will earn you millions. It simply doesn't make sense.

IF you would find someone that complies with what you ask, it will be that person and not you who will impose the conditions on which you might maybe be helped.
There are thousands of persons who would like to learn how to make money. And most of them will even accept a 50/50 deal on the profits.
It is a matter of supply and demand. Demand is high and supply is almost zero. So supply will dictate the conditions.
wow. I had to read a lot of bs in this thread, just to get to the end...
Anyway, my question is this. There are some good traders that post here. There are probably some great ones, as well. Why would a great trader want to mentor a new trader? As was asked before, what is in it for the mentor? How does one know who/what makes a good mentor? I thought the mentor/protege relationship was long gone. probably indicative of the lack of loyalty in society today.
anyway, a good start to learning how to trade would be to learn risk management - i.e. read Livermore, and don't blow up. Then read Cramer, so you know how to toot your own horn - especially useful when posting on ET.
~ Good trading!

You sir, need to go back and read.
"But you propose to give the mentor nothing in return."
